Only game I attended that year was VT.   Not the best game I attended by any means - it was an exercise in insane frustration for much of the way as we should’ve been hammering them if not for some incredibly fluky big plays.  But definitely the best ending.  Because it had that feel of yet another devastating loss in a game we should’ve won...and then we completed the TE throwback. I was sitting in the VT section, as we bought our tickets from VT WR Andre Davis’s father outside the Dome.

The Miami game, I had my first varsity hoop game of the season that night.  I watched the first half and then had to go catch the bus.  I couldn’t believe the outcome was already decided.  Then my team went out and boat raced a team that was probably better than us, as we shot out of our minds - especially in the first half.  That was a good day.

UT - I don’t know if I’ve ever been that gutted after a loss - because we played so well against a great team.  But lost it on our own conservativeness playing for the FG and a questionable 4th down interference call.  Classic Syracuse stuff in that era, really.  But that one hurt even more than Oklahoma(both games, really), NC State(we slept walked and sucked in that one - UT we played great), etc.

Michigan - similar to Miami - over at halftime.  The only time I got briefly worried was when the starting C got hurt and the backup C and McNabb couldn’t get the snaps right and we kept fumbling.
