Yes, they did, all the way back in the legwarmer era of 1987. (The eighties: before crack went corporate and sold out, man.) Rivals catches up with Don McPherson, the qb who led Syracuse to an undefeated 1987 season and finished with a 16-16 tie to Auburn in the Sugar Bowl.
Orson Swindle and Stranko Montana are two men pushing thirty who should know better than to run a college football blog, but evidently don't. Both graduated from the University of Florida, and both agree that college football is far too important to be left to the professionals.

I went to that game, and am still pissed that Pat Dye went for the tie.

Fuck Pat Dye.
That 1987 season was pretty interesting. Rumors still swirl about that even if Syracuse had won that Sugar Bowl game, the Orange would not have finished atop the polls.

Miami finished 12-0 that year- there’s no way Syracuse would have finished at the top- number 2 at best.
Fuck Dick McPherson- the quick-kicking bastard. If the NC were on the line for Pat Dye, he would have gone for the win (at least that’s what I tell myself).

Of course, with the mongoloid speed that college football evolves, it took another decade for overtime to arrive.

There’s some trivia for you- name the only Sugar Bowl to ever end in a tie. Wait about 10 years, it will show up, although I’m sure the Aflac duck will be long gone by then.

I get the feeling that we’re stuck with the Aflac duck for the rest of our natural lives.

I vow to eat him crispy, in a ginger-soy glaze.

PETA would burn down their HQ if that happened.

Only as long as gilbert godfrey is alive, so will too be the duck.

Don’t knock gilbert godfried. His lively introductions to the wonderful shows on “USA Up All Night” are still stuck deep into the memories of my early teenage years. That and the incredibly chopped up Skinemax flicks they’d show immediately afterwards.

Wow, Doug. That was almost English.
I say congratulations, because with grammar and prose like that, the fact that you can operate a computer is proof positive that there is no law against being stupid.
