1993 Sugar Bowl - Alabama Crimson Tide (#2) vs Miami Huricanes (#1)

This was the culmination of a perfect regular season for Alabama. Yet they faced a seemingly insurmountable task in taking on the Miami Hurricanes at the peek of their dynasty run. But looks can be deceiving. Lead by head coach Gene Stallings, protege of the legendary Paul "Bear" Bryant, legacy and destiny was on the side of the Crimson Tide. Alabama throttled the Miami Hurricanes from start to finish, taking every punch they threw and throwing back twice as hard. In the end the Alabama Crimson Tide shocked the world and toppled the Hurricanes and claimed yet another National Championship.

There's a rule in college football that when the player with the ball loses progress the play is called dead. The qb jumped at the 1 yard line meaning he could not pull himself backwards into the endzone, it was the Alabama defender who did that. It was the right call. But everyone hates Bama? Please. That "running into the kicker" call was complete B.S. That was clearly roughing the kicker. Don't whine when the bias is in your favor

I was in New Orleans and stayed in the French Quarter the whole week leading up to this game, and of course went to the game, and the entire time day after day, night after night, Miami players, fans, drunks just talked vulgar trash to our players, fans, it was the most disrespect shown to a Alabama team in my 60 years of going to games and various Championships,,, I never witnessed or heard about any sort of response from our guys, they just waited and waited, then shut them up in the game, Out of all the National Championships this was by far the sweetest and Miami deserved every bit of this beat-down.

[@jonathanwhite1265]

Agreed! I pulled for Alabama hard in this game. Fuck Miami!

[@danielcrowe9324]

I remember living next door to some dude from up North and he told me a couple of days before the game that he wanted Bama to win because he was tired of the trash that Miami players talked as well as all the garbage that they seemingly got away with. This Alabama victory really put a muzzle on them. Roll Tide.

[@reginashadwick3382]

Well said!

[@andrewsalinas4948]

Lamar Thomas talking trash how no player for Alabama could catch him and the rest of them were saying Alabama's defense wasn't any good. Well Teague hawked him down and took the ball....best play of the game! Didn't count but Miami sure did look defeated!!! Corso hating on Bama too! ROLL TIDE ROLL

[@Seattle-2017]

Yes! And check out poor Lamar Thomas at 1:48:10.

Great game for George Teague. You will not find a nicer family, top to bottom, that the Teagues.

[@joelcoley2606]

The first time Bama put 11 men on the line Gino saw broken bones in the near future. Griese clued in on it off the bat. Fun fact, they never practiced that as a team, they didn't want the press to give it away.

[@truthseeker9688]

That strip by Teague was an all-time play!!!!!!!

[@kellymarklong]

I was there! Awesome game!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

[@secguy6649]

First memory I can remember about Alabama Football

[@undie3x7]

The best college game of all time by the best college defense of all time. This team was just stacked.

[@deeman2058]

I can't watch this game, this hurt more than the Ohio State game. I never cried so much

[@CharlesNolanArt]

Having watched so many great bama games, including the goal line stand, in 77, I have to say, this and the 2009 BCS against texas were the greatest games ever for us Bama fans. Crushing Vinny "Testicle"verde and "Cold" McCoy were highlights for sure. ROLL TIDE!!!!

[@wildestcowboy2668]

Hey Charlie think that the goal line stand was 1979

Thats Right 1979 Roll TIDE Roll

1:42:53 What you came here for... "Teague's got the ball!!!"

[@crimsontidezone]

Absolutely! Probably the single most exciting play I have ever seen in all my life. The flag is irrelevant. Teague was on fire in this game.

[@MaximusWolfe]

Barker might be the worst Qb to ever win a national championship. But that really tells you just how good that Bama defense was. SImply astonishing.

[@docpj72]

didn't have to do much really-with the killer D and handing it off to Lassic-all he had to do was to manage the game and not turn it over-all of which he did!

[@lindseysummers5351]

Maximus Wolfe Neither quarterback in this game was very good. The defenses were center stage on this night for sure.

[@MrDkirksey23]

Jay Barker was not the worst Quarterback to ever win the national championship and plus he was drafted by the Green Bay Packers

[@12106445]

Everyone needs to get off of Jay Barkers back and let it go. The Offense they had was built around the running game. Not even Peyton Manning would have gotten a lot of passing yards with that Offense. And also in Barkers "Defense" when a Offensive line cannot keep the Defensive line off the Quarterback during passing situations then there definitely will not be very many passing yards. No, the Offensive line is who I blame for them being so inept most of the time along with the pathetic Offensive play calling by the OC.

[@DanielSong39]

Barker was atrocious in this game but unbelievably was the better quarterback in the game by some margin.

[@Kaos17428]

[@sam21462]

This and that are my two favorite Bama football victories ever. RTR

[@sam21462]

Oh and the Cane's fans were at the top of asshatness in '92, even for them. They started referring to themselves as "The Stormtroopers". I never understood if it was a reference to Star Wars or to Nazi Germany , not that it mattered, they were all assholes who lost in the end.

[@sam21462]

Richt, while being a good coach, is not a killer. I think a lot of it depends on the money they throw at updating all of their facilities. They will need top notch stuff to recruit like they would have too to regain relevance. Again, their coach lacks the "killer" side that recruits can feel when they meet the person. Like you, I sincerely root for a massive failure.

[@MaddRapper11203]

Check rivals, ESPN, scout, 24/7 recruiting services see where they have Miami; then get back to me buddy! The U

[@MaddRapper11203]

+Sam M Even though Shannon , and Golden sucked as head coaches check their recruiting classes! We always get top level talent hence 7 players drafted 2years ago in nfl draft and another 6 were picked up in free agency. It was a lack of skill development! The U
