Miami football bowl history: Every Bowl Game the Canes have ever played in
The 1981 Peach Bowl was the first post appearance for Miami since 1967 and their inaugural bowl game under Howard Schnellenberger. Jim Kelly and Jim Burt swept the offensive and defensive game MVPs for Miami. Miami took a 14-0 first-half lead and held off Virginia Tech late winning 20-10.
Miami did not play in the Peach Bowl again until 2004. Behind a blocked field goal returned for a TD by Devin Hester and a punt return score from Roscoe Parrish, Miami defeated Florida 27-10 despite getting outgained 406-277. Hester added an interception and was named the MVP.

LSU dominated the game as thoroughly as the score indicated with a 468-153 total yardage advantage.
