This Date In Hurricanes History…November 25, 1989
 
Brought to you by the UM Sports Hall of Fame!

The 7th ranked Miami Hurricanes defeated the #1 ranked Notre dame Fighting Irish 27-10 in front of an electric Orange Bowl sellout crowd of 81, 634...at that time, a stadium record !
 
The dagger in the heart of the Irish was a 22-play touchdown drive that consumed 10 minutes and 47 seconds off the clock to start the 2nd half, putting the Canes up 24-10...the big play...a 3rd and 43 from the Miami 7-yard line, from Craig Erickson to Randal Hill for 44 yards !
 
The Miami defense held the Notre Dame offense in check, holding them to under 250 total yards and intercepting 2 passes.
 


Miami would go on to play Alabama in the Sugar Bowl and claim its 3rd National Championship in the 80's !
