| The
Hurricanes would begin the '85 season with a tough
23-35 loss to in state rival Florida. That game
would be the turning point for the season. Miami
rallied back to win their remaining regular season
games and earn a bid to play in the Sugar Bowl
against the Tennessee Volunteers. Miami would
never get the ball rolling in this one, losing
7-35. |
