- The 50th annual Orange Bowl game featured #1 Nebraska against #4 Miami. The Cornhuskers came into the game riding a 22-game win streak and were heavy favorites. However, the Hurricanes aren't ones to be overlooked, winning 10 straight since dropping their opening contest at Florida.
Watch the Director's Cut of one of the greatest college football games of all-time!
The legend of the U was born on that day 1984-2001. Nebraska would three national championships in the 1990's; however, both programs have had difficulty getting back to that same level again.
Would ne nice to see both programs be good again
1 of the best games of all time in any sport, at any level.
I was 13 when this game was played… not a fan of either team but this was the greatest college football game I have ever seen..
One of thee absolute best games I've ever seen in my life..Howard ability to coach a team up against a juggernaut like Neb was that yr...nobody saw this win for the U but Schnell n the Canes
I'm auburn fan but this classic
howard Schnellenberger coaching fooled everyone. But he created a very classy team, no thugs, no trash talking, no dirty hits, one in a million.
This nebraska team was running up the score on teams and was called the greatest team of all time before this game.....and lost. this was the first time south florida speed was on display!
Exactly what do you expect a team to do when the 4th string is in and the opponent still can't stop them??????
Criqui was a terrific play by play guy.
My all time favorite game, I'm a sooner fan , hate both those teams but dayumn what a game.
I appreciate your comment! I'm a Cornhusker fan and hated the Sooners. The 1983 Cornhuskers were the greatest team I ever saw until the 1985 Sooners. They and the 1985 Chicago Bears WHEW what a year!
@@joedellaselva1251 in 85 the Sooners got it,. But only because Tennessee stepped up, shocked the world and beat the hell out of Miami,. And the 95 huskers were the best team ever,. USC and Miami bests were not as good as them

@@calvinmcbride8562 lmaooooooo puuullleeaaseeeee The 2001 Miami Hurricanes....nuff said smh
SOONERS!! Same here. A great game for the ages here.
Loved that the crowd in those days were 100% present. Not 80% of them on phones. Pure thrill being there.
Never again.
It's a game you can watch over and over and I do. 🧡 💚
I was a student and in the stands that day. I so remember this game. Many left the game. We lost our voices. It was an awe inspiring game.
Agreed
Great college FB game. Just a quick look at the players...both Mike Rozier and Dean Steinkuhler from Nebraska and Alonzo Highsmith from Miami played in the NFL for the Houston Oilers way back when.
This is the game that started Miami’s swagger
Grew up in Miami and visited the Orange Bowl for Canes and Dolphin games for many years… there was nothing like it!
Did you see Marino play at the Orange Bowl?

I only followed Nebraska at the time so I didn’t know much about the Canes 😮who are these guy’s handling my cornhuskers
Arguably the greatest college game ever.
This game was huge. I watched this game at 2-3am in the morning when I was stationed in Germany. Watched the ending at about 6 in the morning with about 20 other guys in my room. I was one of the only ones with a TV 😂. Watched on AFN. Needless to say we were all late for morning formation. Got a little extra duty. But it was worth it. What a game.
The one in 95 for me finally got my revenge
You cannot erase 1984 Orange Bowl.@@kasheem1747
There would be little argument. I have seen hundreds of games over the years, and this one just stands out as the perfect football game. Back and forth, ups and downs, highs and lows. Upstart Miami, playing at home as the road team, against the so called greatest team ever. It was just perfect. And that ending? I credit Tom Osbourne for doing the right thing. A tie there would have been terrible for all involved.
I am old...😁🙌
Albert Bentley’s pick up of the blitz was epic
Back then… “I’ve heard Kosar can really throw the ball”…. The birth of greatness.
Can anyone say home field advantage? Especially that song at the end over the loud speaker.
That Irving Fryar drop still gets to me. I was a kid watching it and still didn't get how he dropped it.
The great man Howard Schnellenberger.
Turner Gill!!!!
Enjoyed. Thank you
Feel like Nebraska should've won this game because Tom Osborne going for the 2 points to win and having balls to go for it, but hey this was one of hell of a game best Orange Bowl game of all time, but Nebraska should've won 93 though and Nebraska should have 6 or possibly 7 to this day. And maybe if Tom Osborne won this game, he probably would've reitred 6 years after winning this game, and Nebraska maybe wouldn't have 94 95 and 97, im probably saying stupid stuff right now.
Sorry if im acting like a donut to you guys right now lol😂
If the Huskers had gone up 32-31, Kosar was getting the ball back with more than 40 seconds left. The Huskers certainly didn't have the game wrapped with the ball in Bernie's hands.
Yeah, that's true. If they did get the 2-point conversion, Miami would have still come back from that.
Look at the 1984 Miami-Florida, less than a year later following the Orange Bowl. With less than a minute left in the game and Miami trailing, in very few plays Bernie and the Canes drove for a TD and beat Florida.@@JacobJKL
Yeah, just saw it making rapid progress to get that TD
idk what decision was worse, tom osborne going for two, or pete carroll throwing at the goal line in the super bowl
Classic !
I was there sitting near midfield
I would have went for the Tie
Dis game to what dey was
That dropped ball by Irving Fryar tell me that was not intentional? My grandma would make that catch.
I thought it was 1983 not 1984
1983 season but the 1984 Orange 🍊 Bowl (played 1/2/84)
The U!!!!!
Eddie brown their glory days at Wideout
2:30:00 wow. What a choke
He intentionally dropped that ball
That told me all I needed to know about Irving Fryar. That he wasn't 💩

I counted 17 penalties against Nebraska that wasn't called
Miami of Florida….please. It’s The U.
the First touchdown, it should have been intercepted it was a touch pass with literally no room to throw but the Nebraska cover mistimed it, if he would have jumped he could have picked it lol that could have gone 100 yards back. But so it wasn't and Miami beat a overrated Nebraska, the so called best team ever Nebraska lol NO, its all about the U!!
Tom Osborne's hubris and greed cost the Huskers the championship. Nothing wrong with a tie, especially considering Nebraska trailed 17-0 and 31-17 in the opponent's home stadium. If Osborne couldn't take the heat for a tie, then he was in the wrong profession.
Mmmmmmm, disagree. Going for the tie would have been easy since it guaranteed the National Championship. He commented after the game that this was supposed to be the Greatest Team in the history of College Football (Time Magazine 12/05/1983 'Nebraska - Undefeated and Unbelievable!') He challenged them to score the 2-point conversion and win it outright. It was gutsy.
@@joedellaselva1251 I agree with you, this was a gutsy call. Tom Osborne was a great coach and a class act, he got his Ring (Actually 2, right?) in the end and he deserved them.
Either way, Osborne should have gone for 2 after the first touchdown, the one that brought the score to 31-23. If successful, Nebraska kicks the XP for the win after the second touchdown. If unsuccessful, Nebraska gets a second chance at the 2 for a tie and the National Championship.
would've been a cheap win...
How composed Kosar was in the post game interview.
Miami had too much advantage on both Nebraska and Oklahoma playing at home with TV playn favorites and then beating Alabama in Sugar Bowl who wasnt best Sec team it was Auburn who beat bama by double digits game before..wat a joke... too much advantage... Nebraska Oklahoma Penn State Georgia won on the road...lol...miami not the best in the 80s...sorry canes fans..truth hurts...😂🎉😂
Did miami ever win a bowl game that wasnt in miami?
