Funny how they left this game out of the ESPN documentary "The U"

I was a Miami fan at that game. Long night! I have to say the Tennessee fans were great, and SO LOUD. There was a young couple behind me that made it fun either way. By the second half when the vols scored they gave me a Tennessee pom pom to shake. I went with it. I had a giant green Miami Hurricane cowboy hat on, so I had it coming. Tennessee fans after the game were laid back and we had a great party out in the streets afterwards till early morning . Great memory, other than the game.. ;-)

@will0637 ...........Miami wouldn't have had 5 national titles if they'd played in the SEC the last 30 years.

@ktonkin3, you are right that both are good football programs. just to make clarify: UT has 1 title in the last 43 years, really only 1 title in the last 59 years as the 1967 title is one of those post-awarded bogus ones that many teams use to inflate their national championship numbers. Southern Cal was the legit champ that year while UT has 2 losses. Miami has 5 titles in the last 27 years, though only one title in the last 19 years.

@medic7556 And also the Frank Reich Maryland comeback and the frickin 1993 Sugar Bowl destruction done by Ala....Bama

Florida kicked both teams asses that year.

[ktonkin3]

@Eaglesfanmd also, TN has 6 national championships to Miami's 5. Both are great football schools.

[ktonkin3]

@Eaglesfanmd You may recall that Miami then lost to TN the very next season.
