The 1995 Orange Bowl (for the 1994–95 season) was the Bowl Coalition’s national championship game. It featured #1 Nebraska and #3 Miami (FL) and was played at the old Miami Orange Bowl Stadium, Miami’s home at the time. The Cornhuskers won in a 24–17 thriller decided in the last three minutes.
In case you’re wondering, the reason why it was #1 vs. #3 is because #2 Penn State was contractually obligated to play in the Rose Bowl because they won the Big Ten.
