The Laval CIS football team began its first regular season in 1996 and has won the Vanier Cup in 1999, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010. The Rouge et Or have a record of 6–1 in the Vanier Cup. Laval is tied with University of Western Ontario for the most Vanier Cup championships in history. Head Coach Glen Constantin has now won five Vanier Cup championships with Laval.
Currently, the Rouge et Or hold the record for the longest winning streak in CIS football with 19 consecutive wins, achieved between 2004–2005.
In the 2006 Vanier Cup, they defeated the University of Saskatchewan Huskies 13–8, in a game played at Saskatoon in temperatures below −20 °C. Linebacker Éric Maranda was chosen to play in the U.S. East-West Shrine Game in Houston, Texas on January 19, 2008.
In the 2008 Vanier Cup, Laval, ranked first in Canada, defeated the third-ranked Western Ontario Mustangs 44–21 to claim their fifth national championship.
In 2010, Laval dominated the University of Calgary Dinos 29–2 to win their sixth Vanier Cup championship. They are the first team in CIS history to win 13 straight games in 13 weeks of play after they played nine regular season games in 2010 (CIS teams typically play eight). Their defence also set a Vanier Cup record for fewest yards allowed, 147.
Laval lost to McMaster University in the 2011 Vanier Cup, their first loss in a Vanier Cup game, and stalled the program's bid to win a record seven Vanier Cups. The close game was won by McMaster 41-38, with a field goal in double overtime.[1]
