@@davesmith8877 I was only a kid but I was there for the Navy loss. There was more to it than looking past Navy and playing flat though. Much of the team went out and was hungover from the night before. A player who was on the 84 team told me this about 10 years ago. When I asked him what happened against Navy his exact words were "that was the worst game ever". You could tell the loss still bothered him.
I don't care for either team. Yet I notice that the orange team is getting thier a** handed to them. Why? On every run by the orange team the running back lowers their head anticipating the collision from the red/black team every time in the last quarter. The orange team is beat before the game is over.
Best part was the end when Mike Hold held the ball out to William Perry then dropped it at his feet. Classic!
Still don't know how USC lost to Navy the previous week. One of the most stunning upsets in college football in the 1980s without a doubt.
+Randy Dubin They looked past Navy and were flat

South Carolina wins the Navy game and they possibly playing for national title!
Amen
Never realized TV was that bad back then.We had 1 of the 1st color television sets in our neighborhood and thought it was great.
I have an autographed "Fire Ants and Black Magic" book that Mike Hold signed!!!
I was not at this one. Watched it on wide-screen at Carolina coliseum.
I was at this game. 50 yard line
Mike, I'll always remember you and the hours of fun together down at the Best Way! Me and you and "Ol' Reliable"! (Very appropriately-named, indeed!)
