Kellen Winslow and Andrew rolled were sitting the bench. Lol

Miami at 7 is blasphemous.
My Top 10 (Only speaking on teams I've seen)

2. 2005 USC
3. 2004 USC
4. 2013 Florida State
5. 2001 Miami
6. 2017 Alabama
7. 1999 Florida State
8. 2005 Texas
9. 2008 Florida
10. 2018 Clemson
Zenigundam 2001 canes team 17 first rounders. Enough said
Somebody just doesnt like them to say number 7
Zenigundam to have 2005 usc above 2005 Texas much less 6 spots above them makes your list completely invalid
😭😭 straight disrespect everyone on that 2001 team had good nfl careers
17 first rounders!! No pro team has ever had that much talent on it!
Actually the 2019 LSU and Alabama teams did. They also had multiple high second round picks that would’ve been 1st rounders if the draft classes weren’t so stacked
@@brendonbuffaloe8830 not 17 first rounders. Foh
@@pnut3844able Okay and the quality of the first rounders matters too. Draft classes today have far more depth than they did in 2002. Not every draft class is the same strength, so some years, guys like Trey Lance or Justin Fields would’ve been the #1 pick instead of the 3rd or 4th QB off the board. Same thing with other positions. That LSU team was more dominant than any team in history and having the best college QB ever makes up for 5-6 first rounders
@@brendonbuffaloe8830 Nobody has had (38) players on a NCAA college team go to the NFL much less half of them (17) go in the first round of the NFL draft with (12) of them being repetitive NFL Pro Bowlers. And, half of those (12) NFL Pro Bowlers are NFL Hall of Famers.
@@mayito714 17 is not half of 38 so…..
The National championship game that I would love to see would be 2004 or 2005 usc trojans vs 2001 Miami hurricanes.
Jeez that defensive line vs Reggie bush..oh lawd

Nah that Miami team would only lose to Cam Newton or Vince Young.
That'd be a game for 2nd place to the 95 Huskers.

ESPN still disrespecting The 🙌🏽 .... 17 1st Rounders , 38 overall , 7 players who played and started in a Super Bowl , and 12 pro bowlers but they’re #7 Foh
How is it even a debate
😭😭 you ain’t lying they stay disrespecting the crib they hate are swag
ESPN lost their credibility on topics like this years ago.
Wouldve been 39 players drafted if Chris Campbell hadnt died in a car accident a month after the rose bowl. He was projected to be a 4th round pick. Had that happened all 11 starters on defense wouldve gotten drafted
Miami fans are delusional. They wouldn't even come close to beating 1995 Nebraska. Having high draft picks hasn't helped LSU lately, either.
I agree that Miami hurricanes team was so dominant
College football was super Lit in the Crystal Ball days !
Primetime Ford for real
Facts bro them BCS days were legendary.
I didn't exactly like the bcs system but 100 percent agree!!! The 2000s was the golden age of college football, hands down, hundred times better than today in so many different ways. 3 of the top dynasties came from that era, 2 already have documentaries and the third is likely coming soon. Also had the greatest game ever played (2005 rose bowl)
Controversies almost every year in the BCS- '98 with Ohio State not playing for the title and KState falling to the Alamo Bowl, '99 with 1 loss Nebraska nearly jumping VT in the BCS Standings at the end of the year, 2000 with FSU getting in over Miami, who they lost to, '01 with Nebraska not even playing in the Big 12 Championship Game and playing for the title, '03 Oklahoma-SC controversy, '04 3 undefeated BCS conference teams, etc etc etc, etc, there were only 2-3 seasons in the BCS era when it was clearcut. The CFP is better. Imagine if you have a team like 2001 Fresno State run the table or 2010 Boise run it and Alabama doesn't blow its lead against Auburn. is that what you wanna see? Fresno or Boise playing a stacked team like '01 Miami or '10 Oregon and being 20+ point underdogs and getting blown tf out? Mid-majors don't belong with the elites in football, it's not basketball, the physical differences are huge between Alabama and BYU for example.
@ Zenigundam
Group of 5 teams beat power 5 teams on occasion
-06 season, undefeated Boise State beat conference champ Oklahoma in the Fiesta bowl
-08 season, undefeated (mountain west) Utah defeated a 1 loss, Nick Saban, Bama team that had been ranked #1 in the country for 4 weeks late into the season. They beat Bama more handily than the national champs, UF, had beaten Bama that year too!
-2017 season, undefeated UCF beat an Auburn team that had beat both Bama and Georgia, who both played in the natty game.
-yes, more often than not the power 5 teams win but they lose too and snobby blue blood college football fans always seem to forget bowl loses like these.
Herbie saw that list and was like "man my company espn on some bullshit".
The 2001 canes was the greatest team ever assembled. There is only one U. Go Canes.
I'm glad the buckeyes got them the next season. Go buckeyes! Lol
@@brianwiseman9518 just by a bad call, but that's in the past so nothing can be done
As a Virginia Tech fan I hate admit it but the 2001 team was sick. Best team I ever saw
@@brianwiseman9518 They needed a bad call on a late flag to beat them.
Yeah, I’ve been listening to folks for years now about who is the greatest. Here’s what most folks miss here. This 2001 canes team beat folks in every aspect of the game period. What team on that list has done that. Not one, most those teams on that list were one dimensional. Remember the word team. Oh and I know they won a couple close ones and what’s your point. These are human beings they will have off nights but look at the score board at the end of the game which tells it all. This 2001 canes team deserves much more respect than they have received.
They put 2018 Clemson over 2001 Miami? What a joke.
That 01 Miami team has multiple HOFs on it..let that sink in. That team was absolutely loaded just sickening when Frank Gore is the 3rd on the depth chart.
4 HOFers. INSANE
Even years before that they had talent it would’ve been 3 years back to back to back champions honestly wasn’t fair
snore
Frank Gore, Willis McGahee, Clinton Portis, Andre Johnson, Jeremy Shockey, Jonathan Vilma, Ed Reed...etc. All on one team!!! Yeah, number 7 is ridiculous. Best team ever in college history... 2001 Miami Hurricanes...PERIOD!!!
The 2001 Miami Hurricanes are the greatest college football team ever easily bruh they'd mollywhopp any team y'all real talk
And had guys like Vince Wilfork on 2nd string lol.
@@frankmathews Sean taylor and antrell rolle too
Yeah it is!!!
@@ernestboykin3rd706 No, they wouldn't. They barely beat Boston College in 2001. Having the most talent and being the best is not the same.
Yep. I'm not even a Miami fan but I'm 34 yrs old and it's without a doubt the best college football team I've ever seen. 1) 01 Miami 2) 04 USC.. Those are the 2 best college teams I've ever seen. Would've love to see them play in the old Orange Bowl
If you know college football, you know the 2001 Miami Hurricanes are the goat.
Please, don't make me laugh
17!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First round pick
Marven Montilus you’ll never see that again
P Jean Because Shapiro bought all those players, yep you won’t see that again.
@@im8285 ohh so USC never bought players? Nebraska? Have u seen Florida academic requirements? Emmitt Smith can barely enunciate.
@@im8285 Shapiro was doing his thing 2002-2010. Last time I looked at a calendar 2001 came before 2002
So how did ESPN rank that team at 7?
The 2002 team got robbed by the refs. It's so terrible I have almost entirely blocked it out of memory until I get reminded in times like this.
I agree! I was pissed at that game. The NCAA always has Bama or OSU’s nuts in their mouth
Miami should have lost that game 17-14 in regulation. The refs called a late 1st down catch by OSU incomplete that would have allowed them to run out the clock. And the Miami DB absolutely mugged that OSU WR and it was the RIGHT call. Even after it, Miami had another chance to win the game but they STILL blew it.
Quit crying about refs making good calls. Miami fans are pathetic.
@@encycl07pedia- Didn’t OSU fans cry about the refs when they lost to Clemson in the playoff a couple years ago?
@@benmangrum8626 They did for like a year, not 2 decades.
@@encycl07pedia-U do have a point with the length of time but I just want to add a little context to the frustration. In '88 um was robbed at notre dame by a ruled down on the goal line when the runner was clearly stretching forward. In '00 um was robbed out of playing in the natty to fsu( who um beat that year btw). This one hurt the most b/c reggie wayne, santana moss, dameion lewis, al blades, & dan morgan were seniors. The game was in the orange bowl & um would've demolished the sooners. Couple all this with that late flag & u would be salty too. Just saying
That team was 🔥
This team was so good, they dominated with Larry Coker as a head coach.
We gonna keep doing this every year?
Bruh I actually believe our 02 team was even better
CarolCityCane305 the Ohio state game started such a downward spiral but that team was godly as well
Lol i know brother
Not anymore since LSU just proved they are the best team ever.. it’s ok y’all can be number 2 from now on
Sleep WeaselR55 number 1 Miami once they get going
95 huskers and 01 Canes best I ever seen.
Why does ESPN hate the U so much? I mean having that 2001 Miami team at #7 is a straight disrespectful. They shouldve been in the National Championship game in 2000 & they were cheated out of the 2002 NC.
I wouldn't say cheated
Forgot to mention Sean Taylor, Vince wilfork , antrel rolle, Kellen Winslow ext ext LOADED!!!
The 2001 Miami Hurricanes are the absolute greatest college football team ever assembled. Period.
The Miami Hurricanes should've won three National Championships from 2000-2002!
That 2001 Miami FL squad was super talented & I don't have a problem with that top 10 teams of the past 150 years
That same team lost to Ohio State in 2002 and that is why Kirk loves Miami so much in the top 10.
Paul Ngo not same team, Ed reed, jeremey shockey, Najaeh Davenport, Clinton portis, Andre Johnson, Vince wilfork, Bryant McKinnie, mike rumph etc all graduated 01 year before Ohio st (besides that pass interference call saved OSU)
@@paulngo4631 they also won with that bullshit PI call
I saw a lot of Miami because they were in the Big East and they were often on the regional ABC coverage over here on the East Coast along with the Big 12 and Big Ten teams (never got Pac 12 games unless the teams were ranked in the Top 5), but their legacy is greatly overrated. The Big East was terrible in the early 2000s. They basically had a two game season every year against FSU and Virginia Tech and just had to go through the motions with everybody else. The College Football Playoff is better, no faking your way to title games in weak conferences, you have to earn it with a semifinal playoff victory and then if you play a fluke like ND or Washington in the semis, you end up having to play a real monster like Alabama for example in the title game. Teams have to earn it now, the BCS always left the possibility open that you'd get a title game between two teams who ran the table in the two weakest BCS conferences while a superior team in say the Big 12 or SEC had to go through a war zone and had one slip-up and wasn't rewarded for its far tougher schedule.
Zenigundam you can say that about any top teAm pre BcS era those USC teams only needed to beat ND and they were headed to the championship, Texas beat OU n TT and they were good...Miami did go out and schedule ranked opponents and smack them Washington and Syracuse were top 15 late in season beat them both 65-7, 59-0
That's the media bias against the hurricanes BEST COLLEGE TEAM EVER
It's only the media that props up the JOKE that Miami even compares to the best team ever 1995 Nebraska Cornhuskers. Sorry.
In No Particuar Order
01 Canes
09 Bama
05 Texas
04 USC
13 FSU
Any list that doesn't start with the 95 Huskers is laughable at best. Beating 4 top 10 teams by an average score of 49-18.25? 2001 Miami beat an 8-4 VT team by 2 & needed a pick 6 to hold of an 8-4 BC team. The numbers don't lie.
@L Nebraska beat 4 top 10 teams (3 ended up 10-2 & 1 at 12-1) by an average of 49-18.25. Miami played 1 top 10 team & 4 top 15 teams. Syracuse ended up 10-3, Nebraska 11-2, then 3 @ 8-4. The comparative records of the opponents is basically a wash, with Nebraska's being .003 better.
What Miami magic? They could barely hang with BC & VT.
Special teams? Kickoff returns were nearly identical (Nebraska +3 yards total) & Miami had a 2 yard per kick avg advantage. Miami had 2 return TDs & Nebraska had 1. Not that big of an advantage, like you want to try & make it seem.
Nebraska scored 10.5 more points per game & gave up 4.75 more points per game, but you can chalk that up to having our backups in a lot more.
NCAA rankings rushing offense (NU #1, Miami #21) passing offense (NU #89, Miami #35), scoring offense (NU #1, Miami #3) total offense (NU #2, Miami #8). Rushing D (NU #2, Miami # 40) Pass efficiency D (NU #21, Miami #1), total D (NU #13, Miami #6)
That 40th ranked rushing D would be no match for our #1 ranked rushing offense. By comparison, in 2001 Nebraska was also #1 in rushing offense with 314.67 ypg, but in 95 we averaged 399.8 ypg. So while we ran the ball on Miami, they'd try to pass against our D & look how that turned out for Costa the year before. We'd wear down your D & knock your QB around & hurry him into mistakes. It wouldn't be near as close as the 1995 Orange bowl.
Jim Applebee jiim name one player in nfl better then hurricane from Nebraska thats better .
FSU 2013 facts
05 Texas not that great. A top 5 all time team wouldn't have to upset the team they won against who blew the game really. 2004 USC wins that game 8 out of 10 times.
01 Hurricanes at 7 is mind blowing 😬😬😬😬
The 01 canes team can beat an NFL team, because it was an NFL team in college so therefore, 01 canes are the greatest college team ever
Yoo literally their backups went on to become superstars in the NFL that team was so loading and so stacked
I disagree.... The 1995 Cornhuskers were extremely dominant. I view them as #1.
Miami was cheated out of 2 chamipionships. '00 they beat FSU and they FSU STILL got in and i dont even need to explain '02, so they couldve had a 3 peat
@Anthony
I will concede 2000, but Sharpe clearly interfered. We legit won that game,
Ohio Buckeye hmm I think the problem was that the time the penalty was called. At that time, you got to let players play. It wasent a clear interference and yes there was a little contact before the catch, but the guy was right in front of the ball and he just didn’t catch it
2000 Miami team was possibly better than the 2001 but we don’t want to talk about that.
Ya because you subtract Sean, Vince and Winslow and add Reggie, Najee and Santana…lmao I mean you added way more offense to a legit offensive squad.
Seventeen (17) First round picks is insane...
Just remember this was before the 2019 LSU tigers beat 7 top 10 teams and won national championship. Most passing touchdowns ever and most points scored. Rolled both teams in the CFP. They also beat all 4 preseason top 4 teams by 20 point average. It's hard to rank best ever teams due to generations and types of play but this LSU team is definitely in the conversation.
Miami lays 40 on that lsu team and sacks burrow 5 times. Don't fool yourself swamp boy
You may be correct but you forgot to mention lsu drops 65 in the game.
Clinton Portis, Willis Mcgahee, frank gore, Andre Johnson, Jeremy Shockley, Kelley Winslow, Vince wilfork, Jonathan Vilma, Sean Taylor, Ed reed, Phil bucc
Greatest NFL team in college at the time
The Canes was by far was the best college football team ever. And they practically took over the NFL
Best in terms of talent by a long shot. But I'd say that 95 Nebraska was the most dominant team in history.
Listen to elliot - he knows what he's talking about.
I understand alot people hate THE U but come on be honest you know like herbstreit said that 2001 team greatest of all time on that list all though alot of great teams up there but THE U got it hands down 38 players drafted from that squad U NATION BABY.
NFL means nothing when it comes to who the best college team ever was
Number one is the 1995 Huskers...they scored 638 points (53.2 per game) while only allowing 174 (14.5 per game). Their average margin of victory was 38.6 points, and their lowest margin of victory, against Washington State, was 14 points...only were behind in a game once and beat four top ten teams AND defended their National Championship after going undefeated the year before....no one else comes close
That 01 Miami hurricanes team would have beaten the brakes off that Nebraska team they couldn't even pass the ball
@Jaime Banquez the 95 Huskers beat four teams in the top 10 including the #2 Gators and beat them 62-24 so idk what you’re talking about when you say mediocre teams
@Jaime Banquez you want to talk beating mediocre teams? How many in the top ten did Miami beat? Oh that’s right just 1 🤷♂️
@@michaelrichmond5114 You're delusional, but so are most Miami fans.

Unknown Faith they don’t want that💯
Guapo Y Rico facts
Our second team would of been ranked number 2 😂 stooooopid talent on the 01 squad
It only looks good on paper. Maybe you're too young or you don't live on the East Coast and didn't watch enough of Miami's games, but their dominant stretch was when the Big East was trash and Florida State was down. The only two teams on their schedule who could realistically beat them were FSU and VT and even then they still had some close calls with average Big East teams. The BCS was a flawed system, the CFP is much better. I wish they'd use the BCS computer formula to actually select the teams, so that you don't get frauds like ND and Washington getting in, but it all plays out properly because fake teams will never win two games in a row against the heavy hitters, and even Clemson, who plays in the trash ACC, has to earn it with two wins. No more sneaking in to the title game on some fake sh--.
Zenigundam 5 conference champions and 3 wild cards determined and seeded by bcs computers
@@brett3140 That would be the perfect system right there. And if a team is good enough and loses in its conference championship game, the computers will give it a wildcard spot.
Zenigundam the big east was not trash back then. You thinking of post hurricanes/ va tech big east and current day AAC. Pitt, Syracuse, va tech, wvu, and Boston college we’re all solid to good minus a year or two. The sec was closer to being trash around that time when it was pre urban Meyer and saban
@@RobbieStacks90 no not too young , stand by what I said been a cane fan over 30 years slick ! Not talking how many made the NFL I'm talking about that team
2001 Miami hurricanes is the greatest college football team .
I’m a U fan but I think that 99’ seminoles team better than that 13’ team
I agree
Why did ESPN put 1956 Oklahoma national title team, Why didn’t they put the 85 national title team or even the 2000 national title team? They should’ve stuck with more relevant teams, Like from the 80s to 2018
Bryce Runsabove because this if for cfb 150. I’m pretty sure 56 Oklahoma is one of the best teams in the last 150 years.

1. 01 Miami
2. 04 USC
3. 18 Clemson
4. 05 Texas
5. 09 Bama
Elprocesso 94 or 95 Nebraska could beat any of those teams
I would also put the 08 Florida gators
5. 09 Bama gets an asterisk given that they did not play the #2 team in the country that year.
2009TCU had a better overall SOS, better OOC SOS than UT and better stats, yet did not play for the championship, because college football has become a joke since 2007.

Disrespect to the 87 Miami team. Beat 6 ranked opponents, all in the top 20, won the state championship, beat the usual powerhouses in OU, FSU, ND, FSU and when they won, they won big. If Miami won in 86' that team was even better than 87 lmao.
Miami beat FSU in 1987 by one whole point. LMFAO at "winning big" by one point because Bowden didn't take the tie.
The 01 Canes would beat EVERY team on this list by atleast 24, not even kidding. They were a pro team, even more so than the 04 Trojans
Dude we need to get our 2003 championship 🏆 back that OSU stole from my Hurricanes .The call was pass interference it was not pass interference . Bottom line you guys paid off the refs .
Be real... Chris Gamble got held in regulation on 3rd down with like 2 mins left in the game.
He caught the pass still, which the refs called out of bounds. CLEARLY Miami should of lost in regulation.
17 First round picks. Enough said.
2001 canes is the greatest team of all-time
nope

Explain how seriously they were at 7?
I’m really in my feelings about that list grew watching them 13 total tds scored on that defense common now espn
yes the 2001 u team was crazy
the 2001 Miami Hurricanes are the greatest team in the history of CFB.
Again the 2013 noles are so underrated they was demolishing niggas by 40 plus and had nfl talent everywhere
What about 87 Miami?
12-0 and played 3 sec teams plus fsu, Oklahoma and notre dame. One of the sec teams was Florida. So 2 in-state rivals.
Remember how the fun and gun had
4 of the top 10 are pre 1980, it’s not a diss but 1956 Oklahoma isn’t beating 2009 Alabama. This list needs to be broken up almost like time BC/AD Pre 1980/Post 1980 that’s when it all changed.
2013 Seminoles
stop
That team was goodddd. I'm in agreement with you. Go 🙌
09 bama might not even be top 3 bama teams. 2011 and 2010 had way better and deeper talent
Um, simply put...

Where TF is 08 Florida
That's a joke right?
Trap Pollock.. no sir... smh just... no, sir....
Really man y'all don't Kno football

Deshauns senior year team
Otho Redding junior he was never a senior
That team speaks for itself. All those future pros and hall of famers, and still there wasn't a single player you could have taken off that team and changed the fact that they were gonna dominate.
2019 LSU was a great team, but take Burrow off that team and they don't win a Natty.
I say it's either 01 hurricanes or 14 buckeyes
1995 Nebraska. Teams put 9-10 in the box and NU averaged 400 yards a game rushing. Colorado, Kansas, KSU all lost to Nebraska and round-robin'ed lost to each other. Each won their bowl games handily. Florida? That FLA team went on to win the championship the next year. They lost early to FSU by 3 when they were clearly the better team. They killed them in the NCS. Nebraska pummeled them the year before, 62-24. It could've been 73-18 (two missed extra points, a 2 point conversion faultily ruled "down,", kneel on the 1 at end of game, FLA TD kid was actually out of bounds).
Saban stated NU was probably the best team he ever played...stating this years later after getting killed by them at Michigan State. And people saying 1995 and 2001 NU were comparable. No, they weren't. '95 was much better than the '01 team.
Lastly, they gave up so many points because they had fans playing in the 4th quarter. When you're up 35 going into the last period it just needed to be done. KSU was 42-6 going into the 4th. They got it to 42-25 before the 1st string came back and scored again.
They ain't running on that miami defense
@@jaimealvarezmd7245 because you saw that Hurricane defense successfully defend an all time great option running offense.
It's rhetorical, no, you didn't see Miami defend against the #1 option qb in the history of college football.
@@jayparks803 haaaaa. So what. Miamis speed neutralizes that style of play. Ever wonder why nebraska and Oklahoma stopped running the option? BECAUSE teams figured it out! Georgia tech and the military academies still run it. How well has that gone?
Lol. Miami wouldve put 55 on 95 Nebraska. Period. Miami was a well rounded complete team. Not a run n gun like Florida. Plus, how many problems and nfl hall of famers did the 95 nebraska team roster have? How many first rounders?
Nebraska is done. You may as well begin rooting for Creighton. Nebraska has zero recruiting base, and will never get past Ohio state or Michigan . Bye
Don't disrespect FSU like that. FSU would have won the 1996/97 Sugar Bowl had half the team, including Warrick Dunn, not been sick with the flu.
@@jaimealvarezmd7245 They quit running the option because it doesn't attract talent. No NFL team runs that style of offense simply because it requires big and fast linemen and players that can take a beating. You'd wear out your roster running the option in the NFL. The QB has no protection in the rules when running the option... when he pitches the ball, he can be lit up as he is not a defenseless runner.
So we’re just gonna act like the 2014 OSU Buckeyes doesn’t exist huh ?

I have no idea. The 2001 Miami being 7th in the list is almost as laughable as the 2013 FSU team not being there at all. Miami always gets media hate though.
There aren't 6 teams that could beat the 00, 01, or 02 canes.
2013 Florida State Simonies
🤔 about your spelling there...
Most talent? Absolutely.
Best team? No.
The U baby
Big shocker Herbstreit still doesn't want to make Nebraska the best. Many other schools have better teams in their history
Or Auburn
You are high lol Nebraska is one of the golden children of college football haha they always hate on the U
Yeah... no... you're an idiot
💯💯
Enough said
Sean taylor
Lol
[]_[] Go Canes
Amen
7th??? Hahahahahahahahahaha
Agree 2001 Miami no doubt in my mind.
wrong
No disrespect to that 95 squad of Nebraska but if our offense would have played better and gave our defense the proper rest we would have won that national title game.Ray lewis & big Sapp just worn out by the 4th quarter and Tommy Frazier did his thing wish he could've played in the nfl but blood clots in his legs stopped him.
Miami better not ask Ken Dorsey to win the game for them cause 2019 LSU would probably score every time they had the ball vs anyone.
No I can’t give you that Miami secondary had Phillip bucanon antrell rolle with reed and Taylor no way that defense only gave up 13 tds the whole year you really think they’ll get beat nah
2013 florida st should b on that team too
95 Huskers
Stop it
Ok 71 Huskers then
Facts are facts, which the Media obviously ignores. List 10 facts why a team would be ranked the greatest and the 2001 Miami Hurricane would score a perfect 10 and the backup players....same! Players 3 back had insane talent, never has there been a tem that loaded, never will be. Miami was plainly snubbed in 2000 and plainly cheated in 2002. FACTS!
Hurricanes were number 1 easily the greatest college football team ever it's not even close nobody had more talent on defense and offense an special teams than Miami did. Whoever ranked Miami at number 7 needs to put down the crack pipe.
nope
The U
05 Texas Espn hates Texas for some reason thou
2016 Alabama Crimson Tide
Russell Westbrook Fan since 2010 , lol, you keep pushing this 2016 Bama team. Like we said on another thread ... 2016 Bama has one of the best defenses, but you can’t select a team that lost in the championship game.
facts
LSU 2003
And now the 2019 LSU team and Alabama teams have usurped them
Nope. They would've SMASHED both of them.
@@ht82smash42 Who was their QB? Definitely not an elite prospect like Joe Burrow. The QB is so important that it makes up for 5-6 first rounders. Also, that Miami team was built for an early 2000’s defense and offense, meaning that the lighter, faster players at today’s positions would beat them. The game has evolved.
@@brendonbuffaloe8830 lol, you're funny. Remember this, Larry Coker was a Rookie Head Coach. Your teams would have lost by 35+ points before halftime against that 2001 Miami, if you guys played in early 2000s when you could actually STILL HIT PLAYERS. And stop thinking you guys could beat that team. Miami's 2nd team would keep you scoreless
@@sadrackdorce1059 Why do you say “you guys” lol? I didn’t play on the team. The Miami team wouldn’t be able to cover the LSU receivers, and Joe Burrow would carve them up. Alabama had the better defense of the two, but having Burrow makes LSU the better team. It’s two different eras of football between 2001 and today. LSU would run 5 WR sets, and Miami wouldn’t have even 2 or 3 CB’s good enough to cover those receivers. Then Miami would come out in 3 TE sets and try and run the ball the whole game.
@@brendonbuffaloe8830 Dude, Antrel Rolle covered and shutdown Larry Fitzgerald, an All-Pro Future Hall of Famer, on his own. And he was just a Freshman on the team, along with Sean Taylor. Dude, none of the LSU players right now are going a huge dent in the NFL right now as suppose to the 2001 Team. Question, could that LSU team could physically play Miami with 2001 rules? Because LSU was a recent champion, and 2001 Miami is a legendary team. Comparing 2001 Miami to LSU is comparing Elizabeth Taylor to Jessica Simpson. Better yet, OLD MONEY to NEW MONEY. LSU was not chopped liver at all. But 1995 Nebraska would be a challenge to 2001 Miami. Wait 5 more years and see how those LSU players do in the league
The 2001 crums were the best team? Because the players from Butch Davis era were bought an paid for! An the u got put on Probation a year later!! Did`t hear Herbstreit say anything about that! The u has been put on probation more time than they have ACC Championships!
Jim Ike every team does this few ever get caught
