They should just use the Cotton Bowl as the fifth.

The 46-3 shellacking that Miami delivered to Texas at the '91 Cotton brings back fond memories.

As does the 29-0 spanking Arizona gave to Miami in the 1994 Fiesta Bowl.

As long as you don't forget the 36-9 beating Miami gave Arizona in '91 en route to an undefeated season and fourth national championship.

Sorry don't remember that one.

While I enjoyed Arizona's victory over Miami in the '94 Fiesta Bowl I'm not naive enough to think Miami was playing up to it's full potential. They were disappointed to end up in the Fiesta Bowl while Arizona was majorly pumped to be there. After Arizona jumped on them early Miami never got back into it.
So I don't necessarilly belive that Arizona team was better than that Miami team.

Stuff like that happens a lot in Bowl Games much more than it does in the regular season.

...and let's not forget the 34-13 azz-whoopin'TM that Alabama gave Miami in the '93 Sugar Bowl, en route to their 12th national championship...

Like I said, I've hated Bama ever since. Although, these days that's kinda like hating Penn State or Notre Dame...

::Insert Annoying Hurricane Fanboy Rant here::

my job is done. Miami pwnz all. always has, and always will. Everyone slips up, now and then.

Do not trifle in the Affairs of the 'canes, for they are subtle and quick to anger..

Oh, so you're like me and still like seeing Notre Dame (in your case Alabama) get it's ass handed to it every week?

That'll teach those frickin' whiners for not wanting to join the Big 10. Although, looking at how Pen State has done in the Big 10 the last few years it might not have been such a bad choice but I still like seeing Notre Dame getting spanked just because NBC (I think) was stupid enough to sign on for all of their home games.

All I can say is go Hokies, kill them 'Canes!

Man I hope we don't look as bad as we did against WVU

Yes and no. Yes, because I hate them. Always will. No, because they suck so what's the point?

Did you know that a hokie is a castrated turkey?

I hope we don't look as bad as we did against WVU (even though we actually won).

Go Canes!!!

True, it is better when the hated team appears to be good and then gets stomped just in time to ruin their season. Kind of like what happened to ND last year. This year they just blow. Still, I liked seeing them lose to Michigan, Michigan State and Purdue.

Yes, but those boys in Crimson have an annoying habit of coming back when folks least expect it.

Remembers fondly a Hurricane fan's homemade sign during the 93 Sugar Bowl, "Why did you even bother to show up?"

The Tide shall rise again!

Yeah, and they're chicken too. They've been ducking the Canes since '90.

They're almost as bad as the Gators.

Have never again seen a play like...

"THE STRIP"

Galvatron · Post by **Galvatron** » 2003-10-30 10:50pm

So if Miami plays Bama today...who wins?

Hey, at least we can both agree about hating the Gators.

Honestly, I haven't been that impressed with Miami's play this year, and Bama did hold Oklahoma close. They seem to be in some sort of a funk. Playing a team of Miami's caliber could be the spark they need to get back on the winning track

Ah well, luckily for Miami...

I'm not sold on OU until they beat Oklahoma State for a change. Beating Texas doesn't impress me. They're the biggest choke artists in college football.

Actually I don't have a problem with Alabama. I never lived in the South when they were really dominant so even though I've been around some life long 'bama fans they were all pretty cool. What got interesting was when we had a couple of 'bama fans in my division and then our new div-o was an Auburn grad.

It's funny, I didn't have any problems with Notre Dame for a long time. Mainly because they sucked when I was growing up. After Lou Holtz took over I kind of liked them but they choked often enough that they weren't obnoxious. It wasn't until I started trying to watch a lot of college football from out west when I really got sick of Notre Dame games taking up a channel. Plus, the thing with them telling the Big-10 to take a hike because they made more money being an independant than by being in a conference. Because of that I love seeing them get spanked by Big-10 teams every year.

I'm actually looking forward to them getting creamed by FSU this weekend and I don't care that much for FSU either.

Well.........yes.

Thought is was funny when Bama barely beat the Gators in regular season.

Gator fans: "It's a fluke! Y'all will lose big time in the SEC championship game!!!"

Bama destroyed them later in Atlanta...

I'm just glad that Miami beat the Gators in Spurrier's last game as their head bawl coach.

jegs2 · Post by **jegs2** » 2003-10-30 10:59pm

The thing that bothers me about the Tide this year is that they're good enough to be unbeaten (except for maybe one game), but they don't seem to know it...

Did you see that "crack smokin'" rumor on ESPN.

The rumor went that Fulmer was leaving Tennessee and that Spurier would come back to college football and coach there.

As rumors go it seemed incredibly stupid to me. Can you picture Spurier going back to college ball and chosing to go to Tennesse? I suppose I can because he's done some pretty stupid stuff but I would hope he'd have more sense than to go back to the SEC and not go back to Florida.

If he waits a year or so I bet his old job will open up again.

Oh, and on the what the heck is going on in Arizona front?

Something odd seems to be going on with Arizona sucking so bad and then they keep suspending players.

It's great watching the shit slowly creep up over his boot tops in DC. You college fans have no fucking idea how much everybody who watches the NFL had to hear about "the ole' ball coach". Especially from Washington fans, who were crowing that they were going to win the Super Bowl, especially when the Redskins trashed a few teams in the preseason. Then the Eagles paid them a little visit on a Monday night in 2002, and the turd has been swirling around the bowl faster and faster ever since.

What was especially hilarious was when this year, he actually started running the ball and all the talking heads started babbling about what a great coach he is again. Wow, it only took the great coaching genius a year to figure out what any idiot who plays Madden could have told him: in the NFL, you have to run the ball. And the great coaching genius who figured out you have to run the ball after only an entire season still wasn't smart enough not to trade Steven Davis.

Once again, Danny Snyder spends a bunch of money and comes out looking like a damn fool. How'd this bozo get rich again?

On running the football, Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant once said, "Three things can happen with a forward pass, and two of 'em ain't good."
