Chapdelaine left the program following the 2000 season. In 2001, current head coach Glen Constantin was hired and the team went on to win eight more Vanier Cup titles, in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2016. The Rouge et Or have a record of 9–1 in the Vanier Cup.
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.
