I'd say the 1992 Sugar Bowl broke Miami for a long while
No.
From 1993-2005 Miami was 3rd nationally in win% (78.3%) (Alabama was 49th during that span.)
Since getting beat by LSU 41-3 in the 2005 Peach Bowl, Miami is 49th nationally in win% (55.9%).
It looks like beating Miami in '92 hurt Alabama more than it hurt Miami.

Not a game, but after Spurrier retired from UF Fulmer assumed he would cruise to the SEC title every year and stopped recruiting like he used to and spent too much time worrying about getting Bama in trouble.

In the '93 Sugar Bowl, Bama blew up the aura of invincibility surrounding Miami. In the 10 years prior to that game, Miami never went unranked, and had 7 top 3 finishes, including 4 national championships. The 7 years after that game, Miami only finished once in the top 10 (#6) and had one season unranked (with a losing record)...
Miami got their swagger back at the turn of the century for 3 or 4 years, but it was nothing like their run prior to the '93 Sugar Bowl...

Massively huge span of time.
Miami 6 years prior (up until Sugar Bowl):
65-4 (2 undefeated seasons, multiple natties, was going for the 4 in 6 mark before the loss)
Miami 5 years after:
41-17 (1 10+ win season, and one losing season)
Pretty decent decline.
More so than LSU's
