The Discover Orange Bowl tonight in Miami (8 p.m. ET, ESPN, ESPN3) promises a lot of fireworks as Clemson (10-3) and West Virginia (9-3) meet.

Can those teams provide the types of thrillers we’ve seen in the BCS games thus far?

Check out the highlights below.

In the video above, Michigan wide receiver Junior Hemingway makes a one-handed catch and manages to get his feet inbounds against Virginia Tech in the Allstate Sugar Bowl. The Wolverines beat the Hokies, 23-20 in OT.

In the video above, Oklahoma State safety Markelle Martin delivers a hard hit on Stanford wide receiver Ty Montgomery in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck and Oklahoma State counterpart Brandon Weeden traded big plays. In the end, the Cowboys won in overtime, 41-38.
