For most of the 1981 season, the Dan Marino led Pittsburgh Panthers were ranked No. 1. In the 1982 Sugar Bowl, they would face the Georgia Bulldogs, the defending champions. With the Bulldogs up 20-17 down the stretch with under a minute left, Marino threw a game-winning pass to tight end John Brown for the clutch victory. Marino would later call this the most memorable pass he'd thrown in his collegiate career.
