Miami -- the Orange Bowl game and also the Hurricanes -- played a role in the legendary career of Notre Dame football coach Ara Parseghian, who passed away Wednesday at age 94.

Parseghian's Fighting Irish were unbeaten against UM, going 5-0-1 in six meetings between 1965 and 1974, with four of those games played in Miami. The last of his games vs. Miami, a 38-7 Notre Dame win in South Bend, came in Parseghian's final season before retiring.

Parseghian capped his career, and cemented his legend, back in Miami in the 1974-season Orange Bowl game, played on New Year's NIght '75.
