To say Carson Beck has been around the block a time or two would be an understatement.
The sixth-year quarterback began his career at Georgia in 2020 as a former four-star recruit, where he spent multiple seasons as a backup before taking over the reins of the Bulldogs’ program in 2023. He then sustained a season-ending elbow injury in the 2024 SEC championship game that kept him out of the College Football Playoff and led to his eventual transfer to Miami.
He now finds himself one win away from becoming a three-time national champion quarterback and a first time champion as a starter, as No. 10 Miami meets No. 1 Indiana in the 2026 CFP Championship on Monday, Jan. 19 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.
“He gathered everyone around him and said we’re built for this,” Miami offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson recently said on Beck. “It’s that calming leadership. He can make every throw, he’s athletic as hell. But it’s that calming affect on everyone that has changed this team this year.”
Beck has led the Hurricanes on quite the playoff run, one that has featured three consecutive upsets over Texas A&M (CFP First Round), Ohio State (CFP Cotton Bowl quarterfinal), and Ole Miss (CFP Fiesta Bowl semifinal). He proved to be the reason why the Hurricanes are in their first national championship game.
Should Beck be able to win the final game of his playing career before heading off to the NFL, he will have led Miami to wins over Nos. 1, 2, 6 and 7th-seeded in the 12-team bracket.
