Which Hurricane game did you feel the best after?

[fraggle]

Anytime we beat ND was great and all the FSU wide right or lefts, plus the game where FSU was ranked number one in the country and did a Rap song and we crushed them, BUT the best I ever felt after a game was when we played Florida where we knew they would not schedule us again for many years, Kerwin Bell was going to win the Heisman, it was September 5, 1987 and we whipped them 31 to 4 and we scored their four points for them (center hiked the ball out of the end zone twice). At that time I worked with a bunch of gator and had a gentlemen's bet of one dollar plus bragging rights until we met again 14 years later on January 2, 2001 when we beat them again. To top off how I felt I was seated in the gator section. One of the gator CB's got hurt and a kid named Glover replaced him. He made a few plays and each time his dad got up and shouted, that was my boy Glover. Well Irvin gave Glover a move and went up field and caught a TD pass. Glover's dad did not get up, so I got up and yelled, Glover wasn't that your boy, I could not resist and fortunately Glover stayed seated and never got up again. He was a big guy too and scrawny me realized that wasn't such a good move but nothing happened to me. I did not want to leave the stadium I felt so darn good!

I dunno about best but this is one that provided a longterm sense of joy and feeling like we were "back":

The Brock Berlin comeback against the gayturds in 2003 will be one that always sticks out. I was a freshman in high school and I still remember the following Monday in class everybody talking about it

George Miras last second left handed TD pass to beat the cross 17-15 in 1962.

'89 ND - revenge for getting robbed in 88
'91 FSU - top 5 most famous plays in cfb history
'94 FSU - because f*ck FSU plus 58 game streak had just been snapped
'00 FSU - we were byke
'01 Nebraska - officially byke
'17 ND - felt like Miami was byke

Was nine during that game. Will never forget that. I remember the stadium was more full at the start of the second half because people decided to come late since it was a close game. Edge was unreal.

'84 Orange Bowl
12 years old, watching with mom (Alum)
I was enamored by Eddie "Downtown" Brown, Shakespeare and Dennison. This was my real introduction to football and sports fandom.
Nebraska was so BIG to a 12 year old.

1989 ND. 88 game in South Bend was robbery, Cleveland Gary call might have been worse than 2002 NC Game. Loudest sporting event I’ve ever seen or heard. Place was insane from pregame to and hour after the game. The 3 hours of actual game time will never be equaled. Unbelievable

'17 ND. Hammered walking out of Hard Rock, high-fiving everybody, thought we were going to the playoffs smh

'84 game against UF in Tampa - Come from behind game. We had been sitting among some gators who bragged the whole game about how much better they were than us & how much they were going to beat us by. They left in the middle of the 4th qt. & we ran back into them at the hotel after the game.....sweet revenge. Also enjoyed the game in the OB against OK when Bosworth wore Testaverde's jersey and when we lit their scooner on fire. I think Bosworth desperately wanted to play FOR Miami.

There are plenty I've felt great after, but "The Return" at Duke was probably the most surprised and amazed I've ever felt simply because it was so unbelievable.

Recent years it’s obviously FSU 2017(break long 7 game win streak for FSU in dramatic fashion) or the beatdown of an “elite” Opponent in Notre Dame in 2017

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

This is actually a really great question. And there’s several games going through my mind right now, but really I think the answer has to be after the Rose Bowl against Nebraska to end the 2001 season.

Beating FSU is great, beating the gator is better, but at Miami, we play for Nattys. That’s it. So that feeling of not only winning one, but beating the absolute **** out of them, has to be #1 for me of the last 20 years.

ND last year. I didn't grow up in Florida, so I don't really subscribe to the hate for them.

That 89 UM vs ND game is my #1
But there's been so many other Great wins that left me ecstatic, that it really is hard to make any semblance of rankings...
