Pretty sure we(?) were 17 point dogs in that game. I was 9. If my memory serves correctly, Miami was ranked number one in the country. They were still Miami back then.
I remember asking my Dad if it was possible our Huskies could win that Crisp Saturday morn so many years ago. He didn't hesitate: well, yeah, its possible....anything can happen in college football.
The Dawgs were down 14-6 at half. im not sure how many of us deep down thought we'd be on the winning end after all of this was said and done. Certainly even the most optimistic homer could not predict what happened in the 2nd half. Total fucking beat down. in the end it ranks up there with one of the most memorable wins in program history. Ending their home win streak, Laughing at that Tombstone with Washington's name on it.
This game vs Bama takes me back to 1994.... ~17 point dogs. Number one team in the country. No one giving us(?) a chance. Do we have a shot, you ask? ....

Miami wasn't ranked #1, I think they were about #5.
A great, great day nonetheless. -
That was move in day at McMahon 1994. The TVs in the common area were watched by 100s. Totally awesome day to move in.

I still remember all of the Miami players taken off the field after being hit by all of those Don James recruits.

Mike Ewaliko, the pride of Burien, laid out a small Miami receiver with a vicious looking hit.Baphomet said:I still remember all of the Miami players taken off the field after being hit by all of those Don James recruits.

I was in the orange bowl for that game. Had a brief chat with Coach James in the alumni area before the game. Pure elation afterward.
Cane fans were assholes before kickoff, and in complete shock afterward.
Ewaliko's hit still causes me to shake my head and say, "Damn." -
I got called into work that day about 10 minutes into the game so I put a tape in the VCR to record it. The tape didn't record correctly and I missed the 2nd and 3rd quarters. Worse than that, I ended up erasing my favorite porn tape in the process. Tragic.Passion said:I was in the orange bowl for that game.

Was that the game where we got the ball in the second half (had the opening kickoff too) cause the dude for Miami chose the direction they wanted to play with their option?
