The EA Sports NCAA Football series made me a bigger ‘Canes fan and want to be a coach
When I was a kid, Tecmo Super Bowl was the be all and end all of American Football video games. After Hurricane Andrew I moved to my grandma’s in Jacksonville, then back south to an apartment in downtown Miami with my family. This was the 1992 season. The ‘Canes were undefeated, and I sported my Starter jackets and script M Hurricanes baseball hats in ‘Nole and Gator country before heading back in downtown. I saw Passenger 57 in the Omni Mall movie theatre, and played endless seasons of “Tecmo” against my brother from our mattresses on the living room floor where we slept, played Tecmo seasons for days, and ate Entenmann's Coffee Cake.
