A couple years after that game I was talking to one of my fraternity brother's dad who knew one of the referees in the game. This is the story he told me about the coin toss at the beginning of the game (up to you whether to believe or not, I do):
The Miami captains came out and were just staring down the PSU captains. The head ref asked Jerome Brown to call it in the air and flipped the coin while Jerome said nothing and continued to stare. The ref picked up the coin and re-explained that he needed to call heads or tails while in the air, but JB repeated the silent stare down. The head ref picked up the coin the second time, handed the ball to another ref and said (pointing to the UM captains) "Tell those motherf$%#ers they are kicking off".
