Favorite Canes Gators memory/moment

1980. After OL coach Chris Vagotis got hit in the head with an orange, Howard kicked a fg with Canes up 28-7, making it 31-7. Afterward, he said he did it because he wanted the media to come ask him why he kicked the fg instead of kneeling.
I was there. Came from student section. It set up nicely for the 1981 game where Richt completed only 2 passes in relief. The TD pass to Belk and the one to Dennison to set up Miller's game winner that grazed the upright.
 
For old heads, how about Ottis Anderson’s late TD run to win the game at UF inn 1978? The Canes needed at TD to win. FG was no use. Ottis ran to his left, ran over 4-5 Turds and Canes win 22-21.




Miami running back Ottis Anderson closed out his senior season with a school record 39 carries (a record he still shares) during a 22-21 victory in Gainesville in the 1978 regular season finale. Anderson rallied Miami from a 21-3 halftime deficit with a 3-yard touchdown catch and the game-winning 8-yard scoring run. In 1978, Anderson would finish with 1,266 rushing yards and eight scores, becoming the first Hurricane to eclipse the 1,000-yard rushing mark in a season. He would also leave Coral Gables as the school’s all-time leading rusher with 3,331 career yards until he was surpassed by Duke Johnson in 2014.

Still the gutsiest performance by a Cane EVER. OJ had 30 carries in the second half and it was unusually hot that day in November. Miami hadn't beaten Florida since 1970. It also sent that ******* Doug ****ey, Mr Gator Flop, packing.
