What is your favorite Cane thing that is personal recollection not common.

Carlos Huerta's onside kick against Michigan in the Big House in 1989. The comeback from a 14 point deficit in the final few minutes was incredible (against a very stout Michigan team in Ann Arbor). Everyone in that huge stadium was stunned. Nothing defined Refusing to Lose for me more than that game. The fourth quarter was awesome.

Bernard Clark's INT against ND in the OB. Everyone talks about 3rd & 43 but this was one of my favorite moments in the game. Tiger was a character & the stadium absolutely rocked when he made that INT & ran it back. That night in the OB was awesome from beginning to end.

While it gets more mentions than the ones above, the catch by Shockey against FSU in 2000 was so memorable. It signaled that we were truly back & primed for a great run. After those awful probation years, the return to greatness felt awesome.

Nate Brooks scoop and score vs WV in ‘96. I was attending college in WV and almost got lynched for running down the hall of my dorm and screaming like an idiot and talking ****

i remember a triple OT game we won against BC like 46-45. We had a poor record that year but that team in that game came from way down to win it. I admired their fight and I loved seeing their joy when they had finally won.
 
I feel like Langham has already been forgotten, but he made what I think were our 2 biggest plays in 2017.

23 yd TD catch vs FSU with 6 seconds left
4th & 10 catch vs GT with 40 seconds left


The collective heart break in Doak that day was palpable, they thought the streak was never going to end.

I love Devin Hester - but he made one of the funniest, backyard plays I've seen in a game.

Hester was playing RB, got a pitch and got bottled up near the sideline, cutback, then out of nowhere threw a pass across the field to a wide open (but confused) guy for a 20 or 30 yd gain. Of course we got flagged for illegal man downfield - but that play was great.

I can't remember who we were playing. Does anyone remember what game that was?
 
Getting Charles Johnson's autograph after a game at Mark Light in which he hit two home runs. We were playing football in the outfield during the game and I got the home run ball and got him to sign it after the game. I was probably 12 or 13 at the time. Football and the OB are the kings of my childhood, but games at the Light back in those days were pretty **** awesome as well.
 
Sean Taylor's pick 6 against BC.

Artie Burns 2INT's vs Va Tech

Ahmmon Richards one handed catch (which should've been a TD) vs Pitt.

Nuke Jenkins whole performance vs FSU in 07, that game in particular because both Kirby Freeman & Kyle Wright played like trash. Nuke, Cooper & Javarris James were the only ones on offense doing anything.

Played some intense cup ball games as a kid at the Light.

Go Canes !!!!
