I know this is Wildcat Country, but what are your all's favorite Orange Bowl moments over the past 50 or so years. Plus I hate to see a school forced to leave a classic stadium because the city refuses to help renivate it.

I just want to say something about this game, I thought the Canes would have a lot emotion and be ready to get a win in the last game in the Orange Bowl but they got the crap beat out them in the 1st half and are down 31-0 and I dont see them coming back.I would have liked to see Miami get a W in the last game there.

So many great moments.... here are a few that stand out that have occurred...

1983 Orange Bowl: Miami 31 Nebraska 30. Tom Osborne went for two and the national championship after scoring late and came up short...

1984 Boston College-Miami-Doug Flutie Hail Mary... enough said...

1991 Florida State-Miami-WIDE RIGHT!

1998 UCLA-Miami-Edgerrin James helps the Canes keep the Bruins out of the national championship

1983. The year Tom Osborne announced to the world "I am the coach with the biggest balls of them all". Kick an extra point, and Nebraska has the national championship. But the man went for the win. I still get shivers just thinking about that. The others were great moments, but although I hated the result of the '83 National Championship game, Tom Osborne became an icon for his gutsy decision.

Pretty upsetting to see. Not a big orange fan but I also hate to see them lose in the fashion they did in such a historic venue.

I love it because the U is nothing but a team full of thugs! That is what has been the problem in the past 10 years! I do like there coach though. I will definately not miss the Orange Bowl!
