One of the greatest comebacks in UM history, one of my favorite all-time Miami games. After watching this, please, fell free to going back to ripping the piece of ****.

My memory of that game was getting home that Sunday night (back to Fresno - was at Fresno State at the time) and had eight voicemail messages on my answering machine. (answering machines were the new technology at that time - lol). Being a die hard Canes fan at Fresno State in the late 80's definitely made me a target, even amongst my friends.

The first four messages sounded like this: " Dude!!!! The Canes Suck!!! Losing to sorry *** Michigan!!! No national title this year, *****... hahaha"

The second four messages were from the same four guys as the first group and all sounded like this: "Dude!!! The Canes are so ******* lucky!!! They still Suck but I cannot believe they won that game. **** the Canes!!!"

I was there. Friends in the Hurricane Club who traveled with the team told me the players were singing that Michigan fight song on the way home, making fun if it. The Michigan band played it the entire game, or so it seemed. Should have seen the look on the Michigan fans' faces after the game.
 
Still think Walsh was the best QB we had under pressure - come back here, same for FSU on the pass to the Playmaker
 
That may be the worst-edited highlight collection ever put on Youtube.

Here's to Stat, CaneFreak, and Spooner for doing it right for all these years.
 
It's pretty poorly done, but it's done. I haven't seen this game in a long time, so I was happy to watch the highlights.
