Orange Bowl announcer blunder:


Jan 2, 2016, 4:07 PM

the main lay by play announcer made a big blunder during the lead in to the trophy ceremony after the Orange Bowl. He said Clemson's win evens out their Orange Bowl record at 3-3. He said that might not mean much to these kids but to old-timers like him it did. Well those numbers mean a lot to me also and we are not 3-3, but rather 4-2 in Orange Bowls.

1950 season and 1951 Orange Bowl: Clemson 15 Miami 15
1956 season and 1957 Orange Bowl: Clemson 21 Colorado 27
1981 season and 1982 Orange Bowl: Clemson 22 Nebraska 15
2011 season and 2012 Orange Bowl: Clemson 33 West Virginia 70 (Good luck with Kevin Steele Auburn)
2013 season and 2014 Orange Bowl: Clemson 40 Ohio State 35
2015 season and 2015 Orange Bowl: Clemson 37 Oklahoma 17

That's 4-2
How many Orang Bowls has South Carolina won, or been to?

With all his success, his highest salary was $25,000 a year. The president of the university, Dr. R. F. Poole, feared that professors who earned less would be upset. "He called me up and said that he didn't want me to tell anybody what I made," Howard once said. "I said: 'Doc, you don't have to worry. I'm as ashamed as you are of what you pay me.' " - Frank Howard Obituary, New York Times, 01/27/1996
