I remember playing Syr in a bowl years ago


Sep 25, 2018, 3:27 PM

West was the head coach. Clemson played awful and they beat us badly. It was very cold where I lived then and I went out to take down Christmas lights in awful weather because the game was so bad.

You mean that miserable gator bowl? We sat there til the final seconds ticked off. All of us were soaked to the bone. Actually a wonderful trip until the game started.

Please, let’s hope Dabo reminds them every day what can happen if we lose focus.

I think t hat was in the Gator Bowl? If so , we lost 45-10, or something like that. I had seats in the upper deck and it was so cold. It may have been when Donavon McNabb was there?

I could have two or three different games mixed in my mind. It seems to be happening more and more.

We had a goose egg folks. I was there too. Miserable misting rain, not super cold but unpleasant. We were actually slightly favored ahead of time. McNabb picked us apart.

Bers remembering last year too. Orange is improved, we need to take them seriously.

Wasn't that one of the "Giving him the business in the pile" penalty games?

I was there till the bitter end


Sep 25, 2018, 3:44 PM

There were about 5 other fans left in the stands with me. Freshman McNabb smoked us.

Marvin Harrisonthat day.

I was a JR Equiupment Mgr on that team. Best 2 weeks of vacation I had been had. The team partied hard in Daytona and Jacksonville right up until kickoff.

I have missed very few games, but I missed that since I had a chance to attend the rose Bowl that year. Glad I missed it...
