Memories of the Canes and the Big East for football?

The craziest 2 game stretch IMO in UM history. We give 60+ to Cuse, and then beat the #2 team in the country in a wild game. How Butch got UM ready after the Cuse game should be studied by scientists.

McNabb had 3 rushing TDs against us… Cade McNown wasn’t doing that. Amongst other things.

Good years for Cuse. I don’t know why they dropped off so far.

Yeah, they fell off big time in the early 2000's.

Hard to imagine the Syracuse ever returning to consistent Top 25 status as it was from the mid-80's to late 90's.

Not a lot of football talent in that region. Basketball rules the roost. Carrier Dome is old and tired. And of course the weather

A lot of obstacles for Fran Brown and whoever ends taking his place

WVU. Just feeling uncomfortable entire time (twice) batteries and fights in the stands
Watching the miracle return to win and the yanks beat the Braves in some total WVU bar and screaming for joy. Subsequently, bouncer said he could not guarantee our safety after pur outburst

Probably rocking your Canes gear when we just broke the Eers' hearts — and then rooting for the Yankees vs. the Braves in the World Series at a bar in West. *******. Virginia.

You'd'a had that ***-whupping coming, mi amigo :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Ran across some old College Football preseason magazines in the basement and it got me thinking back to the 1990's and early 2000's.

Canes won a lot - 81-16 in Big East conference games from 1991 through 2003 before leaving for the ACC,

But I never gave two flips about playing any of those schools with the two exceptions of VA Tech and WVU. The rest — Boston College, Pitt, Rutgers, Syracuse and Temple? Great big yawn. No hard feelings, but fine if we never saw them again.

Other than on-field success, any positives about Big East football I'm forgetting?

Post pictures.... would love to see what magazines you found!

Now I'm gonna have to go up in the attic and see if I've still got mine.
