This Date in Hurricanes History...October 10, 1992
 
Brought to you by the UM Sports Hall of Fame!

Miami linebacker Darren Krein returned an interception 28 yards in the 3rd quarter to give the Canes a 17-7 lead...and the defense held off a late rally by PennState as the 2nd ranked Canes defeated the #7 Nittany Lions 17-14 in front of a Beaver Stadium record crowd of 96,704 ! 

Defense ruled the day for both teams...as Miami QB Gino Torretta, needing 195 yards passing to pass Vinny Testaverde's school record for career passing yards...was held to 80 yards on 11 of 31 passing.

The Canes would move to #1 in the next poll...a position they would hold until the Sugar Bowl game against Alabama.

But on this date...Happy Valley was anything but...all JoePa could do was congratulate Coach Dennis Erickson and the Canes !
