That was actually when/why I started liking the Huskers, being a New Yorker I don't have any real ties to the state or university, but I HATED how arrogant the orange and white team was that night watching that game, so I was rooting for the team in red. I was 12 but didn't really follow college football that much, just the Steelers. My high school team also had the short-tear off type mesh jerseys just like the Huskers and even looked exactly the same and are called the Big Red, so it was a natural fit! Rozier was AWESOME, and Gill & Fryar weren't to shabby either.

The rest, they say is history.

Scott,

I feel the same way.  I was attending that game with my parents who still live in the Naples Fla area.  I was 24 years old.  Miami was pretty cocky the entire night. For a team on the rise they sure had some talent. Toretta, Shakespere, and Alonzo Highsmith. We had an unbelieveable O-Line. We had Rozier, Fryar, Gill and Mark Schellene out of Waterloo at fullback

The decision to go for two defined Osborne as a winner.  He didn't want to leave it unsettled. Even though it pulled my spleen out of my nose.

I realize this was a very important game but I wish they'd show some other Nebraska "classics" once in a while because I have pretty much every play in this game memorized by now as it seems to be on every week and I still want to vomit each time I see the end.

How about showing the 93 or 94 OB???
