Miami Hurricanes Uniform Schedule 2026: Every Jersey and When the Hurricanes Wear It

Miami wears orange jerseys with white pants under the white U helmet at home, and all white on the road. This page is the full Miami Hurricanes 2026 uniform schedule: the orange home set, the white road set, the green alternate, the black Miami Nights set, and a week-by-week outlook for all twelve games. We add each combination here once it is confirmed. Five games in, Miami is 5-0 and has worn the all-white road set three times, at Stanford, Wake Forest and Clemson, orange over white against Florida A&M, and the green alternate against Central Michigan.

The Miami Hurricanes 2026 Uniform Sets

Miami's base wardrobe barely changes. One white helmet covers the orange and white jerseys, and the white pants go with both, so the only real question on most Saturdays is which jersey. The black set is the exception. All-black first appeared in 2015. adidas turned it into the Miami Nights series in August 2017, when it was unveiled alongside the green State of Miami set. It was originally slated for a Thursday night game against Georgia Tech, but that game moved to a Saturday afternoon, and the black debuted in prime time against Virginia Tech that November, a 28-10 win. New Miami Nights versions followed in 2020 and 2022. The 2022 version brought neon piping to the helmet, jersey, and pants. The 2023 edition debuted against Georgia Tech, a 23-20 loss. Miami revealed another all-black set in July 2024 and wore it against Florida State that October, the first time in 69 meetings that the Hurricanes wore black against the Seminoles, and Miami won 36-14. In 2025 the special-game slot went to adidas's Honor and Support uniforms for the military appreciation game against Stanford: a black helmet with a digital camo logo, a camo jersey with black numerals, and olive pants. Miami won that game 42-7. We have not seen a new 2026 alternate announced, so the grid below works from the sets we know. In the ACC the home team wears color and the visitor wears white, and Miami follows that convention.

The Full Miami Hurricanes 2026 Uniform Schedule, Week by Week

September 4 at Stanford. ★ Confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet, white jersey, white pants, the all-white road set, against Stanford in cardinal jerseys. Miami won 45-6 on a Friday night in Palo Alto. ESPN lists this game under September 5 because its feed uses UTC, and a 6 p.m. Pacific kickoff falls after midnight UTC. It was played Friday, September 4.

September 10 vs. Florida A&M. ★ Confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet, orange jersey, white pants, with Florida A&M in white. Miami won 77-7 in the Thursday night home opener at Hard Rock Stadium. It was the same home combination Miami wore seven times in 2025, going 6-1. ESPN lists this game under September 11 because of the same UTC shift.

September 18 at Wake Forest. ★ Confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet, white jersey, white pants, the all-white road set exactly as Miami's Week 3 graphic laid it out. Wake Forest answered in its all black Dark Mode set, matte black helmet over a black jersey and black pants, so the ACC opener in Winston-Salem was white against black with nothing shared. Miami won 33-20 on a Friday night. It is the cleanest contrast we have seen all season, and the road set keeps doing the heavy lifting.

September 26 vs. Central Michigan. ★ Confirmed pregame and confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet with the orange and green stripe, green jersey, green pants, the first time the green alternate is out this season and the all-green look under the white U helmet that goes back to the State of Miami set. It breaks the orange-at-home pattern of the opener. Central Michigan came in a gold helmet, white jersey and maroon pants. Darian Mensah threw three second quarter touchdown passes, two of them to Daylyn Upshaw and Malachi Toney, and ran for a fourth, Miami scored 35 straight after a first quarter field goal, and the Hurricanes won 52-3 at Hard Rock Stadium to move to 4-0.

October 3 at Clemson, 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC. ★ Confirmed by Miami: white helmet, white jersey, white pants, the all-white road set, under the caption "Business trip attire." It is the third time Miami has packed the all white look this season, after Stanford and Wake Forest, and it is the right call for the biggest road test of the first half. The broadcast matched it: all white, with the orange and green stripe on the helmet. Clemson wore the orange helmet, orange jersey and white pants. Darian Mensah threw for 227 yards and a touchdown and ran 34 yards for another, Mark Fletcher Jr. ran for two scores, and Miami won 41-13 in Death Valley to move to 5-0 and take sole possession of first place in the ACC. The other side of it is on our Clemson 2026 uniform schedule.

October 10. Bye.

October 17 vs. Florida State, 7 p.m. Eastern on ESPN. ★ Confirmed by Miami's Week 7 uniform combo graphic: white helmet, orange jersey, white pants. No Miami Nights black this time, even though Miami wore black for Florida State's last visit to Hard Rock Stadium in 2024. Florida State is expected in white. Every Week 7 look is in our Week 7 uniform guide.

October 24 vs. Pittsburgh. Orange expected, since it is a home game.

October 31 at North Carolina. White expected, since Miami is the visitor. A Halloween trip to Kenan Stadium in Chapel Hill.

November 7 at Notre Dame. White expected, since Miami is the visitor. This is the old rivalry renewed in South Bend, a 7:30 p.m. Eastern kickoff on NBC. Miami in white against Notre Dame's navy, gold helmets, and gold pants gives this one of the season's sharpest contrasts. The teams opened 2025 at Hard Rock Stadium, where Miami won 27-24.

November 14 vs. Duke. Orange expected, since it is a home game.

November 21 vs. Virginia Tech. Orange expected, since it is a home game. Virginia Tech is the opponent the black set debuted against in 2017, and the Hokies' November visit is one more candidate for a night game.

November 28 vs. Boston College. Orange expected, since it is a home game. This is the regular season finale and the last home game.

The Bottom Line

Miami has worn nothing but its two base sets in the first three games: all white at Stanford, orange over white at home against Florida A&M, and all white again at Wake Forest in a 33-20 win that opened ACC play. With the same helmet and pants every week, the jersey color is the only thing that changes. That changed against Central Michigan on September 26, when Miami wore the green alternate with green pants under the white helmet in a 52-3 win. Miami wore all white again at Clemson in a 41-13 win, and we expect white at North Carolina and Notre Dame too, and orange for most of the rest of the home slate until the program decides a night deserves black. Florida State's October 17 visit looked like the leading candidate, based on 2024, but Miami confirmed orange over white for that night. There is also a second candidate to choose from: Miami revealed 2001 national championship throwbacks on September 22, in both the orange home and the white road version, with no date announced for either. We grade the road whites an A- and the orange a B+. Last season ended in the national championship game at Hard Rock Stadium, a 27-21 loss to Indiana, so any 2026 special set will get plenty of attention. The grid above has every date, and we star each game once the uniform is confirmed.
