The 1989 Orange Bowl was a 1988–1989 college football bowl game that was played on January 1, 1989. The 55th edition of the game was the first that had an official corporate sponsor, FedEx (who would continue to sponsor the bowl until 2010). The second-ranked Miami Hurricanes defeated the sixth-ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers. Despite the high rankings of both teams, the game was not determining of the national title since top-ranked and undefeated Notre Dame (which had defeated Miami earlier in the season) won the Fiesta Bowl earlier in the day. The game was a rematch of the 1984 Orange Bowl, in which Miami had won its first national championship.
