No. 7 Miami 27, No. 1 Florida State 24
The Orange Bowl
Known as Wide Right III. In a game that would anger Hurricane fans later in the season when the BCS rankings were announced in December, Miami ended its five-game losing streak to Florida State. The Seminoles again could not make a key field goal, as Matt Munyon missed a 49-yarder as time expired. Miami trailed 24-20 with 1:37 to go when Ken Dorsey led the Hurricanes on a 73-yard drive capped by Jeremy Shockey's 13-yard touchdown catch. Despite a foot injury, Heisman Trophy winner Chris Weinke was heroic for the Seminoles, completing 29-of-58 passes for 496 yards and three touchdowns and two interceptions. Three FSU receivers eclipsed 100 receiving yards on the day -- Atrews Bell (146), Marvin Minnis (145) and Anquan Boldin (108). Dorsey was Miami's offensive star, throwing for 328 yards and two touchdowns.
Jeremy Shockey will be inducted into the UM Sports Hall of Fame this spring as part of the Class of 2017 inductees !
