One thing Orange fans can always take pride in is that we've ducked no one….played 'em all, up or down…and it's lead to some really fun years/weekends.  Started thinking about all the fun we've had, including the absurd schedule in MacNabb's senior year when they opened with Tenn, @ Mich and @ NC St, with WVU, Pitt, VTech and Miami on the schedule….

We've played and beaten an impressive list in my lifetime (call it post-1980)…if sports is about experiences and fun and lessons and all that, then the program can boast that they've certainly provided enough excitement…certainly more (arguably) than any program in the Northeast (including Penn State)...

This list might not be totally accurate and others will correct as from memory:
