For us old guys, that video, that game was like a huge cleansing of the soul - a baptism of red kool-aid.  :koolaid2:

It never gets old watching it.  


Especially after Byron Bennett’s missed FG with 1 second left in the 1994 Orange Bowl that cost us a National Championship the prior year. That ranked right up there with the 1984 OB loss on the missed 2 pt. conversion. Two gut punches that still are painful. But the '94, '95 & '97 seasons sure made a lot of that pain go away.

It was like watching a story book ending, just everything lining up to crest the perfect scenario for a soul cleansing win. I remember watching the ‘84 OB, but I was only 7 at the time, so mostly I remember my Dad cussing at the game. ‘94 OB though I remember like it was yesterday, man that one hurt, still pissed at the non-fumble call.

I hear you on the no fumble call and the phantom clip on the punt returned.  We out played FSU and it just felt like the refs were handpicked by FSU - I wonder how many of those orange bowl games we would have won if we were playing a home school (Miami) or a state school (FSU). 

 
Here is a chart someone posted on the thread

At this point with our last 10 years being what they have been, I'm glad we can hold on to 7 or 8.  I hope Rhule reverses that trend, and we can move up. 

20 years ago we were # 5 in all time wins - now we are 9th I believe.
