Seriously folks. I think marinevet is right. The Mean Green never made it to Boca.

MEAN GREEN was a EARNED nickname. A bunch of nobody players banded together and decided that they were going to be a dominate force and not the doormats like the year before(1965). As a result of their blood, sweat, and RESOLVE they EARNED a nickname for themselves. This bears repeating........THEY EARNED IT.

Somehow there should be a mechanism/tradition in place where a unit (offence, defense, special teams) earns the name MEAN GREEN before they get to be called by that moniker. 

You know, you might have grown up in a family where being a Marine was a multi-generational tradition, but you don't get to call yourself a Marine until the actual Marines say so.
