Miami vs. Georgia Tech (Nov 9, 2024) Honoring the 2014 Capital One Orange Bowl Team

I was sitting behind some Miss St fans at the Orange Bowl. Good guys. They said playing Tech was like playing a submarine - Dive! Dive! Dive! Thomas kept handing if off up the middle because they couldn't stop it. Damn I wish we still ran that High School offense.

We were there. Our box was close to that goal line. I couldn't tell if the kick was good but when I saw the ball boys go crazy, I thought, holy öööö, he made it.
on DJ's pick, I was watching Quayshawn Nealy. And I saw him jogging toward the sideline. I thought, WTF is he doing? Then, the Tech sideline just exploded. I couldn't tell for a second that DJ had picked it off.
And then we went nuts. Surrounded by big money Dwag fans, who sat there glumly, who couldn't believe after all those calls went their way (JT at the goal line and Ray Drew blowing up our center to block two kicks, which was illegal) that they lost, we went apeshit. Goddamn it's a lot of fun to look across that sea of red and hear not a goddamn peep out of it.
Of the Tech wins over Georgia I've seen in person, I'll take 08 as No. 1 and 14 as No. 2. 16 wasn't bad, either. (I had a job to do in 98 on that day and I was out of state in 99).

I was sitting a few rows up, uga sideline, 5 yard line of the end zone where all the magic happened. When the kick went up, i could not tell if it was between the pipes or not, but it looked short. It seemed to literally catch wings or something and just carry over the cross bar. I went totally insane as the only Tech fan in my area. Oh man. Goosebumps. Hope my kids get to experience that feeling when I take them in a few weeks. Thwg.
