I’m more than happy to watch my Canes kick OU’s can again!!!! This was my very first Canes game, back in 1986. I was 12 years old, and my dad took me bc my grandfather had received season tickets from his office, but he didn’t watch football. I became a Cane lifer on this very day. Spent my high school years working at the OB with my high school marching band, selling drinks and hot dogs to raise money for band events……I may have sold three trays of coke at the MOST! I was there to watch the games, and they did not disappoint. I was blessed to have witnessed the greatest college football dynasty ever assembled in it’s halcyon days. I’m forever grateful. GOOOOOO CANES!!!!
Yeah... although NOT the "greatest College Football dynasty, ever". Not remotely close. First, what Alabama has done, and _continues to do,_ is unparalleled. I should note that I am NOT an Alabama fan. Not at all... I loathe Bama. HATE. Yet, I am not so far up my own ass that I cannot easily recognize what they have accomplished in just a Decade. Like I said, it's unparalleled. NOBODY, no Team, No Sqaud, NOBODY has ever accomplished what they are doing. And, Miami isn't even 2nd on this "All Time Best Dynasty" list. That would be Oklahoma of the 1940s to the early 1950s. Still hold the record for most games Won in a row (47). I don't care if it was a long time ago. They still had to play the games... still had to win. And they had to play against the best teams of _their Era!_ You cannot compare Teams from different Eras. Miami would be in a 3 way tie with Notre Dame of the 1940s through the 1960s, Ohio State, and Miami of the 1980s, early 90s.
I miss the old Orange Bowl although it was at a terrible location. Some of the greatest bowl games in college football history was played on that field. Today's Orange Bowl doesn't have the same energy as the original one had.
@@toddsands6000the OB was a dump but it was magical. And it's still the loudest stadium I've ever been in. I remember it also used to shake. At one point I thought it was going to collapse when I was at the UM/FSU game in 2002. You can go back and look at that game clips on UA-cam and see the camera shaking because the crowd was all on their feet stomping and jumping up & down. I really miss it.
Actually, he had 22 tackles in that game. Although he was ridiculed by the Miami fans in their chant at the end of the game, he was arguably the best player on the field that day.
@@lvpack5022 Correction. He played the best individual game THAT DAY. The best player on the field was Michael Irvin. That is if you go by accomplishments, especially at the next level.
@@ziggie7676 really? Does he have a bronze bust in Canton? Irvin does. Like I said, he played the best individual game, but Michael Irvin was the best talent on the field. Once Bosworth got off the steroids, he turned into Boswimp. Athletically, he couldn't carry Irvin's jock in a briefcase!
This is a rad time capsule for some cool things that aren't really in the modern game like the wishbone and receivers in 3 point stances and Barry Switzer vs Jimmy Johnson lol.
Not a coincidence that neither the Dolphins nor the Canes since abandoning the OB (1986 and 2007, respectively) has played in a championship game. Both teams are shells of their former selves.
I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS GAME ON TV AND WHEN I SAW VINNY MAKE THAT SCRAMBLE PLAY I KNEW RIGHT THEN AND THERE THAT MIAMI WAS GOING TO WIN THIS GAME!!!! I THINK THAT WAS 1 OF THE ABSOLUTE BEST PLAYS OF THE ENTIRE SEASON THAT YEAR ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT BEING VINNY TESTAVERDE BECAUSE ANYONE WHO HAS EVER WATCHED VINNY PLAY KNOWS THAT HE IS NOT THE FLEETEST OF FOOT!!!!!
And Switzser refusing to pass and continue to run the ball when it was stuffed every time. I love it. Always throught Switzser was operated, he won the superbowl with Jimmy's players.
I walked away from this game with a tremendous amount of respect for Brian Bosworth. To this day, this is the best performance I’ve seen from a MLB in a college football game.
@@garypulliam3740 who ran over Boswell bitch ass who did boo out ran for a touchdown over bosworth bitch ass so what point are you making who was the better athlete damn sure wasn't Bosworth
He definitely didn't do anything when he made it to the pros he was just nothing but a college jock whatever you have 17 18 19 year old kids playing in the college game the pros are full of grown men which he couldn't handle
I'm a 'Canes fan, and I was disappointed in Brian Bosworth's NFL career. I believed "The Boz" was going to do special things in the NFL. Overall, college football was his professional career. But even in defeat, Brian Bosworth played a tremendous game in that #1 OU vs # 2 UM showdown. He was a great college linebacker.
Is this the game where the Miami players looked straight through the Oklahoma players at the coin toss saying give us the ball or something like that???
I wasn’t a fan of the Canes at this time as I was just young, but, man this game was hard to watch. It was just pure smash mouth football. I see the D had trouble and missing tackles back then too. That D was stifling though, damn!!! Love the U!!!
I was at that game (lower end zone area), brings back great memories... went with a buddy with a pulled groin , parking attendant saw the crotches and let us park near the stadium near sooner bus for $10.00 ... Canes fan since 1982 !!!
I am now 56 years old in 2024. I remember this game with my dad sitting near the sideline by the Miami bench. My dad died suddenly of a heart attack one month ago. He was 78 years old. We had a fishing trip planned out for this week and my daughter is getting married next month. My dad was so excited to see his granddaughter get married. He bought a suit for the wedding that he got the day before he suddenly died. It was still on his bed unpacked. So we buried him in that suit.
Thanks SteelBuck. One of my favorite Canes win of all time. Testaverde was awesome on this day. Was this the same guy who threw 5 picks in thee Fiesta Bowl?
I am a Oklahoma fan and the Canes just Kicked the Hell out of my Sooners...The canes were the best team in the Country that year...Thats why I was shocked when Miami let Penn State upset them....I think Miami got the Big Head, no way they should have lost.
That West end zone was no joke!!!! No opponent wanted to play us in the OB. Visiting teams would be driving the ball into the West end zone, and we’d get SO LOUD, they would get so frustrated! Only Arrowhead Stadium was louder.
@@organicallypoweredlife1417 the city took the OB down not the school. the city of miami is a metropolitan city the odds of miami having their own stadium is slim...its not columbus ohio or norman oklahoma....its MIAMI...even USC dont have their own stadium they dont own the LA coliseum and as a matter of fact prior to the coliseum being built they shared a stadium with UCLA.
@@Theycallmekenney Bruins have been in the Rose Bowl for 40 years. USC does not own the Colosseum, but they are its hallmark public image (along with its Olympic pedigree). Miami City tore down the OB because the Canes made a break for the burbs, flubbed their last game there 48-0 against the UVA Cavs and havent won a conference championship or bowl game since. Scratch that, they have ONE bowl win in 2016. Shannon, Golden, Richt, Diaz... now Cristobal... these are very high-level coaches. The failure isnt theirs, its the Universities for thinking a successful college program could move its stadium off campus and remain at the elite levels.
@@organicallypoweredlife1417 "High level coaches" lol. Miami's problem has been bad coaching, period. You clearly have no clue about this stuff and your claim that Miami "moved its stadium off campus" proves it. The Orange Bowl was in Miami. U of M is in Coral Gables.
Yes I agree with you I went to many Hurricane games back then and also the Dolphins too that place was rocking back in those days. Rip OB thanks for the memories 🤔
I watched this game on TV in AZ and even from there I could sense the orange bowl had never seen electricity like this before, save for maybe the game from 12/1985 when the undefeated bears came to town. But certainly never for a college game.
What a showdown this was.Too bad for Miami they didn't win Natty after beating Oklahoma.Sooners 😳 finished out season with wins over Nebraska and in Orange Bowl against Arkansas.
My stepmom raised me as an OU fan, but I realized how cool Miami was as a football program. OU has become so boring and predictable with their play calling. No one will ever be as good as the 2001 Hurricanes.
OU wishbone was great. It took a Miami team with at least 7 NFL players on it to slow down the wishbone offense. It's all about matchups. The U matched up well against OU. Penn State matched up well against Miami. OU matched up well against Penn State
@Mike wrong mike I suggest you use that phone for knowledge. Ou is winningest program sense WW2.. been in top 7 average for long time. Won more big twelve championships than any team in conference. 2-2 record against bama and around 120- 35 record against sec. First loosing season was last year sense 1997. 😂 Soooo I'd say your wrong in a lot of ways.
I have a question: Which college team, if any, run the wish bone offensein 2022? I know the service schools and Georgia Tech run the triple option (last I heard), but these two offense are rare nowadays.
Back in the day, I thought Miami was what was wrong with College Football, and that Penn State was what was right about College Football. Just knowing that during this time Coach Sandusky did what he did, and Joe Pa did nothing about it, I want a do over.
I argued for years that Penn State would regret not getting rid of Paterno bec I thought the school should have had several more NCs, but what do I know. They have been an overall bust after he was forced out, cough, retired.
@@jaimealvarezmd7245 LOL. Blacks can never, ever take ownership. See article about Jimmy Johnson apologizing for the teams behavior prior to PSU. Remember the fatigues as they got off the plane. Remember Teste's hat. Is Teste black?
no that was Switzer leaving after all the turmoil and off the field antics including the QB getting busted for selling cocaine. If not for that OU would have ran the bone well into the 90s
One of the greatest UM teams that failed to win the title. Vinny was playing like garage in the national championship game. Jimmy wanted to pull him but was under a lot of pressure by the school not to.
I watched this game live. I hated both teams but at this point I hated Oklahoma more because I was a penn State fan and in 85 Oklahoma beat Penn State in the national title game.
OU sucks overrated and afraid of the U. Okay team, lacks killer instinct to finish the game. The U was great and paved the way for us Roll Tide to pick up where they left off. Much respect for the U. 😢🎉
Okay how the hell does Miami come out and be so dominant against Oklahoma...a great Oklahoma team but for the whole marbles the national championship against Penn State they nutted up and looked pathetic.... Miami dominated Penn State and still had a chance to win the game but they played horrible after playing so great against Oklahoma
This pair of commentators ooze ignorance and stereotype. One hates Miami because they beat Notre Dame senseless. And both are not comfortable with speaking on athletes without using stereotypes
Commentaters hated Miami! Testaverde, blah! The best quarterback has to be Ken Dorsey. More accurate, better under pressure and a better leader! Lifelong canes fan since the 70's when most of you bandwagoners did not even come to their games. I remember getting a free ticket from a happy meal from McDonald's, do you? Nobody in Miami liked Miami until they started winning. Dorsey, my favorite!
PS I was at this game in the east upper grandstands on the visitors side (was the only ticket I could get) and of all the 50+ games I saw in the Orange Bowl, this game and the absolute demoliton of ND two years later are my absolute favorite football games ever. And I'm Irish American hahahaha. I will never forget walking out of the stadium after the ND game, seeing a ND fan in snow-white ND sweats with blood running down his face and all over his fanboi suit. Thought to myself - "You came in here, after that bs game last year, talked sh3t and wrote a check with your mouth your ass couldn't cash. Serves you right." From wikipedia: "The 1988 meeting was the pinnacle of the rivalry. No. 1 Miami, who hadn’t lost a regular season game in over three years, rolled into South Bend to face fellow unbeaten and fourth-ranked Notre Dame. A pregame fight, the origin of which is still debated to this day between the participants, spawned the famous Holtz quote “Save Jimmy Johnson’s ass for me” in his pregame speech. As for the game itself, it was a back-and-forth game highlighted by a controversial call that took away a Miami touchdown, as well as a failed two-point conversion that stamped safety Pat Terrell’s name in Fighting Irish lore. The Irish won, 31-30, en route to the national title. Four months later, Johnson was gone, accepting a lucrative offer to help resurrect the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. His final words to the Hurricanes? “Beat Notre Dame.” Nine months later, under new head coach Dennis Erickson, they did just that, ending Notre Dame’s 23-game winning streak with a 27-10 win over the top-ranked Irish. The bigger issue, however, was off the field-specifically, in the stands of the hostile Orange Bowl-temporarily putting an end to college football’s hottest rivalry. The stories are numerous: Notre Dame fans who made the trip to Miami being spit on and having beer poured on them by unruly Hurricanes backers. Longtime Notre Dame beat writer Tim Prister told the South Bend Tribune in 2010 that the atmosphere in the Orange Bowl that night was “a nastiness-I would even call it an evilness.” Prister added that in 30 years of covering Notre Dame football, “it was the most vile, vicious venue for a college football game that I’ve ever been in. They weren’t there just to see Miami win. They wanted blood from Notre Dame.” Notre Dame would never return to the Orange Bowl to play the Hurricanes."
@@michaelkeeler6058 😂 yes nothing sense. What conference wins what bowl games what rankings were held. Noooo body talks about Miami anymore. Not in last 20 years
Miami beat Oklahoma giving them a clear path to the Natty.Then Penn State stepped in and thwarted Miami's high powered offense and National title hopes
I’m more than happy to watch my Canes kick OU’s can again!!!! This was my very first Canes game, back in 1986.

I'm ou fan and damnit your right.
Miami shut down that triple option running attack lol
That triple option running thing is stupid. Adapt or try something new. Jesus
@@wolvesetc they did change to passing attack for years leading nation at times. It's been 20 years sense they did option plays all game long.
Miami was playing chess and OU was playing chesckers
So many terrific players on both sides.
I was at this game! Total domination by Miami; especially the Miami Defense
Miami owned us mid 80's to late 80's. Lots of anguish during these games.
I was there!!!, that Testaverde play was amazing!!!
Jimmy Johnson learned how to defense the Wishbone at OSU and when he got to Miami he had the athletes to make it happen.
The coin toss is Legendary. The U let'em know, "We Here Baby!"
Wow, this was much more of an asskicking than the score indicated.

It was hard to win that game. Vinny kept giving Penn State the ball. Defense kept game close.

Me too. Remember watching Penn State beat Miami and thinking the good guys beat the bad guys. Oops.
As usual, the officials had the inadvertent whistle in a turnover. Happened several times that season.
I think Miami encouraged OU to dump the old style running game for a pro attack...15 years and 3 Heisman trophy QBs later OU is now QB U
no that was Switzer leaving after all the turmoil and off the field antics including the QB getting busted for selling cocaine. If not for that OU would have ran the bone well into the 90s
Vinnie had a golden arm.
20:46 Braton Ko'd the Boz. This was one of the most hardest hitting college football games I've ever seen.
The wishbone offense seems like something out of prehistoric times.
That's it keep running wishbone down 17 in fourth ,real smart play calling!
That's how they got to the orange bowl
That was 'Cane football. Period
Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Michigan had black quarterbacks in the late 80s. I think America was taking huge strides forward..
The players are very small compared to today's 300+ lbs
Melvin Bratton was a horse
What a game. Defense was aggressive. Oklahomas running backs hit hard. This was the climax of football. Go Noles
both coaches went to dallas
The Orange Bowl Aura.
One of the greatest UM teams that failed to win the title. Vinny was playing like garage in the national championship game. Jimmy wanted to pull him but was under a lot of pressure by the school not to.

OU sucks overrated and afraid of the U. Okay team, lacks killer instinct to finish the game. The U was great and paved the way for us Roll Tide to pick up where they left off. Much respect for the U. 😢🎉
Wow 37:47 Major horse collar rip down. Lol.
28-16. What the heck let's try for another TD
Okay how the hell does Miami come out and be so dominant against Oklahoma...a great Oklahoma team but for the whole marbles the national championship against Penn State they nutted up and looked pathetic.... Miami dominated Penn State and still had a chance to win the game but they played horrible after playing so great against Oklahoma
Turnovers
33:39 time to ride the pine.
And the game wasn't even as close as the score would seem to indicate.
Sooners Special Teams especially the kick off returns was awful a few times should have taken a knee on some of those kick offs.
OU quarter-back could not complete a single progressive pass in this entire game smh
You think Jerry Jones was watching this game?
How that team choked in the Fiesta bowl against Penn state was jjs biggest fail in his coaching career. That team was loaded.
Doesn't matter. He won the national championship next year with lesser talent.
The Probation Bowl! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This pair of commentators ooze ignorance and stereotype. One hates Miami because they beat Notre Dame senseless. And both are not comfortable with speaking on athletes without using stereotypes
Commentaters hated Miami! Testaverde, blah! The best quarterback has to be Ken Dorsey. More accurate, better under pressure and a better leader! Lifelong canes fan since the 70's when most of you bandwagoners did not even come to their games. I remember getting a free ticket from a happy meal from McDonald's, do you? Nobody in Miami liked Miami until they started winning. Dorsey, my favorite!
Dorsey can be your favorite and he was a more cerebral QB but Vinny was faster and had a stronger arm.
Dorsey sucked. He was the weak link on those super talented teams
@@jamiecrawford8133 Dorsey didn't suck. He was a good QB just not the most talented.
@@jamiecrawford8133 LMFAO!
Keith Jackson wasted there.
Penn State
Then the Canes lose to Penn St in the championship game Lol 😆
I'm glad to see NOTHING from canes again.lol
89, 91 and 01 = NOTHING - when was the last Sooner NC? Oh yeah, that bullsh2t game against FSU...LOL!
PS I was at this game in the east upper grandstands on the visitors side (was the only ticket I could get) and of all the 50+ games I saw in the Orange Bowl, this game and the absolute demoliton of ND two years later are my absolute favorite football games ever. And I'm Irish American hahahaha.
I will never forget walking out of the stadium after the ND game, seeing a ND fan in snow-white ND sweats with blood running down his face and all over his fanboi suit. Thought to myself - "You came in here, after that bs game last year, talked sh3t and wrote a check with your mouth your ass couldn't cash. Serves you right."
From wikipedia:
"The 1988 meeting was the pinnacle of the rivalry. No. 1 Miami, who hadn’t lost a regular season game in over three years, rolled into South Bend to face fellow unbeaten and fourth-ranked Notre Dame. A pregame fight, the origin of which is still debated to this day between the participants, spawned the famous Holtz quote “Save Jimmy Johnson’s ass for me” in his pregame speech.
As for the game itself, it was a back-and-forth game highlighted by a controversial call that took away a Miami touchdown, as well as a failed two-point conversion that stamped safety Pat Terrell’s name in Fighting Irish lore. The Irish won, 31-30, en route to the national title.
Four months later, Johnson was gone, accepting a lucrative offer to help resurrect the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. His final words to the Hurricanes? “Beat Notre Dame.” Nine months later, under new head coach Dennis Erickson, they did just that, ending Notre Dame’s 23-game winning streak with a 27-10 win over the top-ranked Irish. The bigger issue, however, was off the field-specifically, in the stands of the hostile Orange Bowl-temporarily putting an end to college football’s hottest rivalry.
The stories are numerous: Notre Dame fans who made the trip to Miami being spit on and having beer poured on them by unruly Hurricanes backers. Longtime Notre Dame beat writer Tim Prister told the South Bend Tribune in 2010 that the atmosphere in the Orange Bowl that night was “a nastiness-I would even call it an evilness.” Prister added that in 30 years of covering Notre Dame football, “it was the most vile, vicious venue for a college football game that I’ve ever been in. They weren’t there just to see Miami win. They wanted blood from Notre Dame.”
Notre Dame would never return to the Orange Bowl to play the Hurricanes."
@@michaelkeeler6058 I remember this thugs vs Catholics I think was called.
@@michaelkeeler6058 I'm Irish and creek
@@michaelkeeler6058 😂 yes nothing sense. What conference wins what bowl games what rankings were held. Noooo body talks about Miami anymore. Not in last 20 years
The BOZ was the best player on the field.
No he was NOT. ONE of the best for sure. Vinny T, Jerome Brown, Michael irvin and Keith Jackson were all on the same level as Boz, at least.
Miami beat Oklahoma giving them a clear path to the Natty.Then Penn State stepped in and thwarted Miami's high powered offense and National title hopes
JH for Oklahoma was garbage in that game
Two corrupt head coaches.
What did JJ ever do that was corrupt?
Wtf you talmout. You must be a Texas fan. Lol. Still a55 hurt from 91
No wonder Jerry Jones hired both of them.
@@edlawn5481 precisely.
BOOMER SOONER! Miami is thug city!
