We would've beat Miami 7/10 times on a neutral field --
the Watters fumble was a killer.
But that loss was on Monk. After the 1988 scuffle it was well known that Monk threatened Holtz. The Miami players knew it and taunted our guys. Fans throwing Ziplock bottles filled with piss.
We were the better team.
