 Game 3 cincinnati at Miami
Series vs. Cincinnati
The Battle for the Victory Bell between Miami and Cincinnati is the longest-lasting
collegiate football rivalry west of the Allegheny Mountains, first being played in 1888.
It is also the fifth-most played rivalry in Division I (FBS only) with 121 all-time meetings
and is the oldest non-conference rivalry in the nation.
The first Miami/Cincinnati game was played in Oxford on Dec. 8, 1888 as the teams
played to a scoreless tie. The game was the first college football game played in the
state of Ohio.
Miami controls the all-time series 59-55-7, but the Bearcats have won the last 11 meet-
ings. Miamis last win versus UC was back on Sept. 28, 2005 in a 44-16 win in Oxford.
The two teams have played every year since 1945, not playing in 1943 or 1944, but
Miami and UC also played every year from 1909 through 1942. Of the 121 meetings,
53 have been decided by seven points or less, including the seven ties in series history.
Miami and UC Extend Series Through 2029
A series that dates back to 1888 has now been extended. Miami University Athletics Direc-
tor David Sayler and University of Cincinnati Director of Athletics Mike Bohn announced
this morning (Sept. 11) that the series between the two schools will continue through
2029.
The extension includes five home games for both schools and three games at Paul
Brown Stadium, home of the Cincinnati Bengals. Miami will serve as the host institu-
tion for the 2018 and 2022 games at Paul Brown Stadium with UC as the host in 2026.

Austin Peay Recap
Three fourth quarter turnovers by the defense energized the Miami football team and
allowed it to pull away with a 31-10 victory over Austin Peay on Saturday afternoon. The
RedHawks (1-1) big plays allowed them to hold the ball for 12:06 in the fourth quarter to
allow them to even their record on the season.
Miami outgained Austin Peay 295-270 on the day with both teams ending up with
three turnovers. Gardner paced the offense with five catches for 117 yards and hauled
in two of Raglands (11-of-23 for 145 yards) three touchdown passes. Smith finished
with 85 yards rushing on 22 carries to lead MUs ground attack. Defensively, Mont-
gomery finished with a team-high nine tackles and forced two fumbles while Reid
nabbed an interception and pounced on a loose ball after a kickoff.

Preseason Honors
Over the past four years, Miami had not received much attention in preseason
honors. That has changed in a big way this year. Heath Harding was named to three
different watch lists (Bronco Nagurski, Jim Thorpe and Bednarik), Danny Godlevske
was honored by the Rimington Trophy, James Gardner earned two awards (Wuerffel
and Biletnikoff ) and Ryan Smith was named to the John Mackey Watch List.
State of the program
Oxford, Ohio has not been this excited for Miami football in some time. Depending
on who you talk with, most would say expectations have not been this high for a
Miami football team since Ben Roethlisberger was quarterback, back in 2003. Just
four years ago the RedHawks went 0-12 and averaged less than 10 points per game.
Now, Miami has had four straight recruiting classes ranked in the top-3 among MAC
schools and received the most first-place votes among East Division teams in the
media preseason poll. What a difference four years makes.
Roster Breakdown
While Miamis roster is finally starting to trend toward upper-classmen, the youth of
this roster is still shocking. Coming into the 2017 season Miami has 124 players on
its roster and just 12 seniors. Roster breakdown includes: Sixth-year seniors (1), fifth-
year seniors (5), seniors (6), red-shirt juniors (19), juniors (13), red-shirt sophomores
(16), sophomores (9), red-shirt freshmen (22) and freshmen (33).
Miami Taking Its Time
Through two games this season Miami ranks ninth in the country in time of
possession, holding onto the ball for an average of 35:37 per game. In the opener
versus Marshall Miami had the ball for 35:44 and followed that up a week later with a
time of possession of 35:31 versus Austin Peay.
Dominate Defense
Miamis defense currently ranks 24th in the nation in total defense (268.5) and 52nd
in scoring (20.5), but even that doesnt tell the entire story. Versus Marshall, the
Thundering Herd had two special teams TDs and a pick-six. If you were to remove
those 21 points, the Miami defense would rank 10th in the country, allowing just 10.0
points per game.

Diamond Returns For Sixth Year
Miami got some great news from the NCAA last spring, when it was announced that
Jordan Diamond would be granted a sixth year of eligibility, due to missing two
seasons because of injury. Diamond, a transfer from Auburn, started all 13 games at
guard last season in his first year with the RedHawks.
Blessing in Disguise
Back in 2015, Heath Harding was battling an injury earlier in the season that he just
couldnt shake, which forced him to miss the final nine games of that season. While
missing the season was frustrating for the Dayton, Ohio native, there was also a
major positive. The injury allowed Harding to redshirt the 2015 season, giving him a
fifth year. Without that injury in 2015, Harding would not currently be a part of this
2017 season.

If You Build It...
Miamis Athletic Director, David Sayler, has been busy in his first 55 months, adding
several facilities for the department. The two newest installment can be seen just
north of Yager Stadium. The new David and Anita Dauch Indoor Sports Center
(DISC) opened in February of 2015 and features a full length 120-yard field and four
sprint lanes.
Between Yager Stadium and the DISC is the Athletic Performance Center. The APC
provides much-needed upgrades to Miami Footballs locker room and offices while
also hosting a state-of-the-art medical and athletic training facility that serves all

 Game 3 cincinnati at Miami
Chuck Martin
Head Coach
Second Season
Coaching Record: 86-34
Record at Miami: 12-27
Milliken, 1990
In his career, Chuck Martin has more than 20 years in
college coaching experience, including 10 years as a
head coach. He has twice been named the American
Football Coaches Association (AFCA) National Coach
of the Year, earning the honor in 2005 and 2006, and has coached in seven
national championship games in the past 16 seasons. In addition to his head
coaching experience, Martin has served as a coordinator on both sides of the
ball. Of those seven national championship game appearances, he has been a
part of four national championship wins, with two titles under his direction as
head coach/offensive coordinator and one as a defensive coordinator.
The one thing missing from Martins resume, was a program builder. Martin
may have answered that question. Martin, who was named the 36th head
football coach in Miami history on Dec. 3, 2013, had his hands full when he
took over the helm of the RedHawks program.
Miami had just gone 0-12 the year prior to Martins arrival and many believed
the roster was one of the worst in the Mid-American Conference. In three
years, Martins vision of returning Miami football to greatness is in full swing
and many believe the RedHawks have already arrived.
While rebuilding the roster from the ground up, Miami took its lumps in 2014
and 2015, going just 2-10 and 3-9. 2016 did not start out much better as Mi-
ami lost its first six games of the season, but that is when things changed.
Martin would orchestrate something that had never been done in college
football. Miami rattled off six straight wins to become the first team in college
football history to begin a season 0-6 and finish 6-6. The six-game win streak
also moved Miami to 6-2 in the MAC, finishing in a tie for first in the East and
helped the RedHawks advance to the St. Petersburg Bowl versus Mississippi
State, Miamis first bowl appearance since 2010.
The Miami rebuild would be complete, adding another highlight to Martins
resume.
Prior to joining Miami, Martin spent four seasons at Notre Dame, serving as
the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach (2012-13) and defensive backs/
recruiting coordinator (2010-11). In 2012, he orchestrated an offense that
played in the BCS National Championship game versus Alabama. In 2011, he
was named one of the top 25 recruiters in the nation by ESPN.com and was
named to Rivals.coms Second-Team Assistant Coach Dream Team.
In Martins two years calling plays, Notre Dame combined to go 20-5 overall
and was one of the most balanced offenses in the country, averaging 26.4
points, 170.0 rushing and 235.6 passing per game.
Prior to arriving in South Bend, Martin was head coach and offensive coordi-
nator for Grand Valley State University from 2004-2009 and compiled a 74-7
(.914) record, including an impressive 16-4 record in the NCAA Division II Play-
offs. He and the Lakers won back-to-back national championships in 2005
and 2006 and finished runner-up in 2009. He directed Grand Valley State to 48
consecutive regular-season victories and 45 straight wins in the Great Lakes
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC). He also guided the Lakers to a Di-
vision II record 40-game winning streak from 2005-07. Martin produced seven
Associated Press First-Team All-America players as head coach.
At GVSU, Martins offenses averaged 35.1 points, 208 rushing and 427 total
yards per game. The Lakers ranked among the top-25 nationally in total of-
fense in five of six seasons and ranked in the top-27 in scoring offense in all
but one season. In that time, his offense scored at least 30 points in 56 of 81
games and scored at least 40 points in 34 contests.
Many of those offenses were led by quarterbacks who were developed under
Martin. In six years, GVSU produced four Harlon Hill finalists, given annually to
the NCAA Division II Player of the Year (Cullen Finnerty in 2006 and Brad Iciek
from 2007-09). In that span, Laker quarterbacks threw 184 touchdown passes
and just 41 interceptions.
His offenses were not just about the quarterback. In all six seasons, he pro-
duced a 1,000-yard rusher. In four of those seasons, a running back finished as
a top-10 rusher in Grand Valley State history.
Before becoming head coach, Martin served as the defensive coordinator for
the Lakers in 2003, helping GVSU win a national championship. Martins de-
fense allowed just nine total points in the final three games of the playoff run
and among the ranked top-10 nationally in scoring, rushing and total defense
that season.
Martin served as the defensive backs and outside linebackers coach at GVSU
from 2000-02. Prior to arriving in Allendale, Mich., Martin spent time at Eastern
Michigan (1998-1999, linebackers), Millikin University (1996-97, defensive co-
ordinator/defensive backs), Wittenberg University (1994-95, linebackers) and
Mankato State University (1992-93, graduate assistant/linebackers).
While attending Millikin (1986-90), Martin was an All-American safety and
was selected as a GTE Academic All-American. He doubled as an All-American
place kicker, received Academic All-District honors for the Millikin baseball
team and was inducted into the Millikin Hall of Fame in 2008.
He graduated in 1990 with a degree in accounting and earned his masters
degree in physical education from Mankato State University in 1993.
Martin and his wife Dulcie have two children, Max and Emma.
