Quarterback Jim Kelly walked to the line of scrimmage in the second quarter of Saturday's game in the Orange Bowl. But before he began to call his signals, he had to do something which the quarterbacks of Ohio State, Michigan, or Alabama often find need to do, but which few UM QBs in recent years have done: he waved his hands in the air to silence the crowd.
It’s been a long time since UM fans have been that enthusiastic.
However, the screaming, shouting and supporting didn’t begin Saturday afternoon. Mild uproars which began after the Houston victory led to absolute hysteria during the FSU game.
This type of athletic enthusiasm is the media's delight. Each day last week, some aspect of the football program was featured on local news.
There were personality profiles, predictions, and ‘‘Are The Hurricanes For Real?” articles in both local papers. There were even articles which commented on how school spirit and student support was higher than tuition.
It was an amazing week.
A few times during the week, it sounded as if there were a riot in Eaton Hall, instead, it was the football team having a mini-pep rally, accompanied by students and members of the "Band of the Hour."
The players and students were singing. dancing, and chanting. Whether it was "F — k you FSU" or “3 and O with more to go," everyone had one thing in mind: those nationally-ranked Semi-noles.
Wednesday’s news of UPI's 19th ranking of the 'Canes added to the excitement and festivities. By Friday afternoon, one could feel the electricity in the air.
Saturday was certainly not your ordinary study In the morning, beach in the afternoon, type of day. It was The Day.
By 1 p.m. many of the dorms were empty. Dozens of cars were beginning to head for the Orange Bowl. This meant one thing: tailgate parties.
While students were devouring hot dogs and chugging beers, Frisbees were flying,, and music was blasting. And that’s what college football on a Saturday afternoon should be all about.
The crowd support resembled a typical New England Patriots — Miami Dolphins clash. Of the 54,736 tickets sold, there were 4,728 no-shows. Why over 4,000 people wouldn’t show up for this one is beyond comprehension.
Tickets were being scalped, and every type of souvenir was being peddled outside the Bowl. Inside, 50,000 strong assembled, and as kick-off drew closer, they grew stronger.
The pep-rallies, media coverage, and student support, all were coming to a head.
The second quarter continued to be a see-saw struggle until the play: Kelly threw a lofty pass to wide receiver Larry Brodsky, which flew over his and the defenders' heads.
However, FSU's Gary Henry was called for pass interference, which gave Miami a first and goal at the FSU one. This was a "judgement call" which went UM's way. Football is a game of breaks, and the 'Canes certainly got one that time. But there were no flags thrown earlier when Brodsky was clearly bumped.
It's great to get the breaks, but a good team is one that capitalizes on them. On the next play, Kelly sneaked over for the score. The crowd was standing, the band playing, and everyone was asking himself if the touted Hurricane defense could hold a powerful Seminole offense for the remaining 32 minutes and 28 seconds.
At this point, the 'Canes should have been up by at 20 points. They were ahead in every statistical category. However, the only stat that counts is the one on the scoreboard.
The second half saw an exchange of punts and a Seminole offense that came out throwing. FSU broke through with a 26-yard field goal kicked by Bill Capece.
Now it was time to see just how good the 'Canes were.
They showed how good by immediately driving down the field for a 22-yard Miller field goal.
With the momentum again swinging UM’s way, Scott Nicholas intercepted a Rick Stockstill pass. Miami moved the ball down the field, but couldn't capitalize on the turnover as Miller missed from 45 yards.
The outstanding UM defense was determined to thwart any FSU drive. And thanks to a crunching sack by Mike Goe-decker, and a fumble recovery by C. C. Cook they were again silenced.
Miller again missed a field goal, this time from 35 yards.
With 14:19 in the game left, those three missed field goals were begininng to loom larger. Instead of a 19-3 score the 'Canes were faced with a slim 10-3 lead.
This is the point in a game where “intestinal fortitude" becomes so important. Intestinal fortitude means that you have enough guts, pride, and heart to “make it happen."
With four and one-half minutes remaining, F'SU began show this fortitude. The Seminóles would have to drive and score if they were to remain in the top 10. The ’Canes would have to stop them if they were to have the slimmest chance of bursting into the top 10.
The next four minutes could begin a new chapter in Hurricane football, or 50,000 fans would go home shaking their heads.
Seminole receiver Sam Childers broke free and scored on a Stockstill pass.
Just an hour earlier UM fans were screaming and cheering, and tasting sweet victory. Now everyone was saying that the ’Canes had played a noble game but F'SU was just too good to hold down for an entire game.
With the score 10-9, there was no question that FSU Coach Bobby Bowden would go for the two-point conversion. When you’re ninth in the country, you don't go for ties — you go for it all.
There is really no apt way to describe the feeling that whipped through the stadium.
A 3-1 record isn’t bad. Or is it? But ft seemed as if UM's bubble of football superiority would burst. Along with the defeat would go those years of promise and investment.
There was only one problem: no one told those 11 men on the field that they were going to lose. They reached down deep for the last bit of strength and were ready to go.
Stockstill dropped back to pass and fired a shot over the middle which was knocked down by nose guard Jim Burt.
Final score: UM 10, FSU 9.
The fans went berserk. The 'Canes won what was probably the greatest victory in their last 20 years.
A Notre Dame scout said that the students must have been pleased with the victory. Perhaps the thousands who poured on to the field to congratulate the team gave him that impression.
The game is over. Remaining are the wonderful memories of school spirit, generous student support, and an exciting game.
Let's never lose it.

Since early August, some faculty members have complained about mii-dew, water, and filth accumulating in their offices in the Merrick Building. They claim that the situation was caused by the newly installed air-conditioning system.
Dr. Harm J. de Blij, geography professor at UM, says that since mid-August there has been mildew and wetness in his office. "I've gone home sick twice so far," he said. “Fm sure my respiratory problem is because of this.”
During a severe rainstorm soon after the fall term began, one of the ceilings in the Merrick Building caved in. De Blij said that when his secretary called the Physical Plant for assistance, she was told that the person in charge could not help them because he would get wet.
De Blij contacted President Henry King Stanford, who "looked into the overall situation and apparently could not do anything about it at the time," said de Blij.
"We have all been patient,” de Blij said, "but this has a become an inlolera-

Dynamic Cablevlsion of Florida, Inc., is trying to obtain a Coral Gables franchise, and has included UM in its proposals.
Three other companies, Americable, Storer, and Ultracom, are also bidding for a franchise in Coral Gables. However, only Dynamic has offered to include UM in its proposals.
Dynamic Cablevision employee Frank Kneiser, who presented his company’s proposals to the Coral Gables franchise meeting, outlined Dynamic's plans.
Dynamic hopes to construct and equip a $500,000 studio on campus. The University will have use of this station, and if conflicts for scheduling arise. UM will have top priority. The company has also agreed not to operate its subscriptions office on campus.
The company would provide up to 10 internships for UM students. "The internships are not just internships, but are experiences in a new communications medium," said Kneiser. "They are also not for just communications students. Business and marketing f.udenls could
ble situation. I've had to hold office hours in the cafeteria. I cannot even sit at my desk because I'd have to go home and change clothes."
De Blij said he’d heard that complaining faculty members had been described as "kids” by one vice president, while another one had cracked jokes at a cocktail party about "cards, letters, and phone calls" relating to the situation.
"Certain members of the administration seem to forget that when the main mission of the Universtity is impeded, effective action is required," said de Blij.
Professor Judy Wallace of the Communications Department, said that she also has a "horrendous amount of mildew growing on her books and furniture.”
Dr. Clyde Hendrick, chairman of the Psychology Department, agrees that faculty members in Merrick have suffered a great deal. Hendrick developed a case of bursitis which he directly attributes to the humidity in his office.
Harvey Rose, director of the Physical Plant, says that the air-conditioning system, designed by Connell, Metcalf and Eddy, Inc., Architects and Engineers, called for water to be cooled at the gen-
work there, as could engineering students. This is up to the discretion of the University. We have no say. The 10 positions are there for UM to use."
Dynamic would pay the University 20 cents per Coral Gables subscriber per month, beginning January 1, 1981, with a guarantee of $25,000 per year of operation.
The company would give UM one complete television channel. When asked whether or not the University could broadcast off campus, Kneiser responded, “Oh yes, absolutely. Off campus programming in Dade County is part of a county ordinance which states that cable television companies must be able to interlink with other cable systems. UM can broadcast all over the state."
These proposals have made members of the communications department very pleased and excited.
The only problem with Dynamic’s proposals is that it filed its completed application 19 days after the deadline. According to John McDermott, assistant to the Dade County mayor, this should not pose a problem, as Dynamic was negotiating with UM before the deadline.
"Our plans were ny finalized in time
oral utility plant and then distributed to Merrick.
According to Rose, water passes through a coil. When air is blown over it, the water is cooled. "The water would condense if the system were designed correctly," he said.
After substantial testing, it was discovered that the coil which was designed for the system was too large. "This |the coil|,'' said Rose, “made the air cool too quickly, not allowing time for the water to condense, and resulting in cold humid air."
According to Rose, measures have been taken to solve the problem. "The size of the coil will be reduced so that it •is the exact size needed." said Rose. "Air can be cooled and water condensed." Recently, project workers have reduced the size of the coil.
John Pennington, project manager representing the University, has informed M. R. Harrison Construction Contractors, the company which installed the system, that UM will not accept the system if it is not working properly. According to Rose, certain expenses are in dispute.
Proposed
for the deadline.” said Kneiser. "We had previous plans to involve the University in our original proposal, however." According to Kneiser, the original plan called for giving UM its own television channel.
Although Dynamic added other offers to its proposal. Kneiser does not feel that the substance of its application changed.
The total cost for the proposed Dynamic set-up for the University and the city of Coral Gables is expected to be $5.5 million. Since this is a Coral Gables contract, the city will have two neighborhood studios which will be smaller than the proposed UM studio. These studios are considered portable, according to Kneiser, as they will be equipped with portable equipment, but will be fully capable of producing cable programs.
This package also involves running and wiring the cable into Coral Gabies homes and campus buildings. Kneiser said that Dynamic would also have to wire in a variety of electronic devices to keep the cable frequencies clear and accurate.
