I just wish Vince woukd have more of himself in the NFL. The man had ot all and just wasted it by sheer too much ego. DAMN. Maybe Erligher has to come back to 15 years later. Let's show an.. We're Back. HOOK EM'
Just a machine of a team!! Charles was jus a true freshman and he dominated. I forgot how dominate Ramonce Taylor was... God that was such a great year. Our D was killer too!! Team was stacked with NFL players n keep in mind charles n finley came out early. I truly believe the greatest college team in history!!! Hookem!!
The best player arguably to ever play during the BCS era, a top 5 running back in the backfield in the NFL, a pro Wider Receiver and a veteran offensive line. Romance Taylor was amazing and could've done big things, but he got in trouble. Every single starting DB on that team plays in the NFL, and the Thorpe winner to go along with it. Great D-Line and Linebackers. I'm telling you guys, I really do believe this was the best college football team of all time. While I respect the 2001 Miami team and all their players success in the NFL, This 2005 Texas team would've matched Miami man to man if they ever played.
Stop, they were nowhere close to the '01 Canes, that's just beyond stupid, by a "pro WR" you're talking about Limas Sweed, who wouldn't have been the third best pass catcher on the Canes
pats4lifebb Although the stats of Texas don't match up completely to Miami's, their accomplishments that season still stacks up quite nicely. That year Texas dominated almost every team they played. It also included the key win against #4 Ohio St. at Columbus which is not an easy task for visiting teams. And the 70-3 win against Colorado (was over before the second half the game) was the most lopsided score in a championship game. Lastly, the win against the then 2x defending AP national champions, USC (ESPN prematurely calling the Greatest Team ever) is self explanatory.
pats4lifebb Holy shit that was quick lol do you have a life? No ones mad buddy, if anything, you're the one whose made for me making a bold statement that's not mainstream. Texas went 13-0 beating another team who would've been considered as one of the best ever, y'all beat Nebraska. There's many cases for Miami, and cases for Texas. Your ignorance and lack of college football knowledge doesn't comprehend anything outside of the norm. Now get you no life having ass out of my comments. Lol you haven't comment since August and comment in like 5 minutes. Of course you're a Pats fan. It makes perfect sense for someone like you.
I still think this is one of the best, if not the best, football teams of all time. They were such a complete team on both sides of the ball. I really hope Texas can get back to this level of talent soon. The last few years have been rough. HOOK'EM HORNS!!!
Been watching The Season on the longhorn network and I've just gotten so hyped watching this squad. This is BY FAR the best ever college football team in the history of NCAAFB. Vince Young was a killer QB, and Mack Brown was a hella good coach! I believe Swoopes and Strong can work magic for us, and maybe we can be Texas Football again! But Hook Em!!!
Would have lived to see Charlie Strong do good things and Texas. Cards were stacked against him. Tom Herman not extended to 2023. We should and better she a National Championship. I am looking at 2019 2021 at the latest.
This will always be my favorite squad. They r the best underrated championship team eva if coach strong puts a team together half as good. Lol lookout texas will reign again
What a game! Went to bed in last quarter so I could get up by 4:30; when I went to shave that dark morning, my 2-degrees from Texas wife had posted a sticky on the mirror: “Texas fight! Texas fight...!” No need for anything else. I could feel the depression that sat over the Trojans as I drove past USC that morning! We will never forget Vince and the rest of that Longhorn team. What an ending!
Out of any team this is my alltime favorite squad. I remember using texas all summer as ncaaf team on xbox before the season started. Stomped every body they were mad until the season started 🤣
If this team was called for targeting by today's rules, they wouldn't have been undefeated. Half the starting players would be missing in games at any one time. I guess the storied life of Vince Young mirrored the future of the program.
I wish all of the great athletes(football/basketball) would stay and play all 4/5 yrs of college! Well atleast until they help the team win the championship. I remember longhorn basketball recruited sum of the best players(Aldridge, Durant, Ford, Augustine etc) but they never got the chance to play together because Aldridge and Durant went 1 n done I believe. That would've been a hard squad to stop
Had Vince not won the championship I believe he would've came back for another year but then again with people/agents/NFL teams in your ear talking about money it's kinda hard to pass that up lol
Love this entire clip, but it's missing the Justin Zwick fumble when Drew Kelson got him and Robison picked it up. That play shut the door on that game, and I'm not sure I've seen a more excited sideline than that play. Might be my favorite play from that season.
Wow what a year, what a team! Should have shown Jamaal Charles 80 yrd run vs Choklahoma but other then that great vid. Every game that year there was a special play that you talked about all week. Hook Em \\m//
I wish Melton didn't convert to dtackle at the pro level. Probably would have been the next Jerome Bettis if they let him run the ball. Dude was a man amongst boys when he got the ball.
Vince Young, 4-headed monster running backs (Jamaal Charles, Selvin Young, Ramonce Taylor, Menton), sure-hand receivers group (sweed, thomas, etc), very strong offensive and defensive linemen, physical linebackers and very deep secondary (4 are 1st and 2nd rounders), along with averaged kicker and punter. Special team is one of the best in nation with returning and blocking skills...well, who can beat 2005 longhorns? I can't think of any other team that completed as that longhorns team.
TexBoy Yep because Darrell Royal gave a struggling Bear Bryant the blueprint to Texas' success. He literally taught Bear the wishbone offense all out of pure friendship. You're welcome, Bama.
Stats: Offense PPG: Texas: 50.2. Auburn 41.6 Offense YPG: Texas: 520. Auburn: 499. Defense PPG: Texas: 14.6. Auburn: 24.5. Defense YPG: Texas: 280.6. Auburn: 362.2. Texas CLEARLY dominates Auburn. They broke the record for point scored in a season (They scored 42 more points than Auburn despite playing 1 less game. You are wrong in this argument.
I was at the 84 cotton Bowl against Georgia. 10-9 lost national championship. I was at 01 big12 against Colorado...simms. I was. Was there 66-7 against UCLA! But when we took OU out behind the woodshed ruckus senior year.. Beat #5 Nebraska team in Austin in 04. And this 52-10 tech beat down then steam rolled everyone else. It wasn't. Coaching It Was Mack just decided to keep Texas kids in TEXAS it took $. But when. Your QB HAS HEART... SUN COMES OUT...
You're so so wrong. QB: Vince Young-2nd in Heisman voting (Rnd 1). HB: Jamaal Charles (Rnd 3). WR: Limas Sweed (Rnd 2) Quan Cosby (NFL Player). TE: Jermichael Finley (Rnd 3). OL: Kasey Studdard (Rnd 6) Justin Blalock (Rnd 2) DL: Brian Robinson (Rnd 4) DB: Cedric Griffin (Rnd 2) Aaron Ross (Rnd 1) Michael Huff (Rnd 1) Michael Griffin (Rnd 1). That was one of the great teams EVER. How many draftees has auburn had from that team? 5. I'll continue on why youre wrong in another comment.
"Fourth down and five, the national championship on the line."
Still gives me chills.
ModanoTheBest Robert Harvey love community rock star
ModanoTheBest This was the greatest game that Keith Jackson ever called
I don’t know whose call I like more. Craig Way the voice of the Longhorns call was pretty great! Hook ‘Em!!
Me too I remember like it was yesterday won a 💯

LMAO at the baylor game. "This is going to be a good one" Final score 62-0
I thought it was good 🤪
That shot of McCoy and Young throwing before Texas Tech made me smile. From 04-09 was an amazing ride.
Right one hell of a ride
I'd give anything to have a decade like '98-09
TexBoy get ready for it, it’s coming soon.
So much talent and speed! And brutally physical at the same time...this team was unreal!
One of the greatest years for texas football!!
Bobby White I think it was the greatest.
Yessir
Just a machine of a team!! Charles was jus a true freshman and he dominated. I forgot how dominate Ramonce Taylor was... God that was such a great year. Our D was killer too!!

People forget how dominating this team was on both sides it
Best college team ever.
2009 Alabama squad would eat these fools alive
2002 Miami Hurricanes as well
Danny Wilson Jr. trippin about getting eaten alive
Danny Wilson Jr. 2009 alabama almost lost to a backup freshman QB that threw 4 picks in the natty lmao not even close

Were you born after 2000? The 2002 Miami Hurricanes squad literally had 22 future NFL STARS 😂 and 3 HOFs

This was a hell of game, and I still remember it to this day.

Ribulose Bisphosphate Don't bother bro, he's just following the mainstream in calling Miami #1, and taking offense to anyone saying otherwise.
Isaac Gomez lol, I don't even like Miami, just pointing out how stupid it is to compare Texas to the 01 Canes, no need to be mad tbh,

So proud to be a Longhorn. Let’s hope Herman gets us back on top...soon
This year we will be perfect with all of our #1 recruits
TheStopSine you were saying lol???...........
Muddy Waters aged terribly 😭😭😭😔😔
These are coach strong recruits I can’t wait to see how terrible Herman does without coach strong recruits
Each phase was on a different level. Offense, defense and special teams were remarkable.
I still think this is one of the best, if not the best, football teams of all time. They were such a complete team on both sides of the ball. I really hope Texas can get back to this level of talent soon. The last few years have been rough. HOOK'EM HORNS!!!
If this team were forever young....they would still be undefeated..simply the greatest college ever....can't believe this was almost 20 years ago....

This is the best Texas vid I can rewatch this everyday I don’t get sick of watching it
Holy shit. Texas was so good
Not WAS. IS And we will show it in the future. TEXAS FIGHT !!!
bs1194 best team ever
Really hope we get back to being a national championship team...
Chiken1012 give it time. Every great team always has a decade where they have a slump. The 2020s will be a lot better
HOOK EM' . Erligher was born to take us there.
I know but this season if it is not cancelled we will be really good
@@thestopsine82 this aged quickly #BOOMERSOONER
Probably one of the best seasons if not the best season in Texas Football history!
a walk down memory lane. Hook Em Horns for life. great video
This will always be my favorite squad. They r the best underrated championship team eva if coach strong puts a team together half as good. Lol lookout texas will reign again
Thank you so much for this video. You just brought back our good memories in 2005.
Undisputedly the most perfect season Texas has had in history!!! The best NC game party I've had ever!! haha
I don't think any team in history could beat this team. \m/
2001 ohio state would be good game
1995 Nebraska would beat 2005 Texas by at least 2 TD's
2009 Alabama
@@d.wil2x fat chance lol, the 09 team wasn't even comparable to 05's B-team.
@Patrick not a chance in hell.
this team was so loaded, top to bottom.

70pts after 3 quarters in a conference championship game is crazy
Never realized that big play potential on special teams and the physicality of our defense
Happiest day of my life until my daughter Austin was born..
Best college football team ever.
“ longhorn nation, weeeerrrrreeee baaaaacccckkk!!”
I really hope we can get back to this kind of play, this kind of dominance
The Greatest College Football Squad Ever. 🐐
I remember taking a picture with Jamal Charles and his mom and grandma at a local walmart when i was about 4 or 5
GREATEST TEAM EVER
Best. Video. Ever.
Man Charles wad always good. That second effort and hit on AJ Hawk though...
Wow.. Nice trip down memory lane
Awesome. thank you and hook'em.
Best video ever
thank you
Out of any team this is my alltime favorite squad. I remember using texas all summer as ncaaf team on xbox before the season started. Stomped every body they were mad until the season started 🤣
Greatest National Championship ever!!
If this team was called for targeting by today's rules, they wouldn't have been undefeated. Half the starting players would be missing in games at any one time. I guess the storied life of Vince Young mirrored the future of the program.
Even though I am a die hard duck fan. I loved watching this longhorns team. That season was a masterpiece for the horns.
Two Thorpe award winners, a guy who should have been a Heisman winner, jamaal in the backfield. Twelve all Americans. What a team
"They're impressed but they've been to nice places before." Pure class
I wished he would've stayed and played his senior year instead of going to the NFL.
I wish all of the great athletes(football/basketball) would stay and play all 4/5 yrs of college! Well atleast until they help the team win the championship. I remember longhorn basketball recruited sum of the best players(Aldridge, Durant, Ford, Augustine etc) but they never got the chance to play together because Aldridge and Durant went 1 n done I believe.

What for he accomplished everything he needed too and needed to provide for his family. Everyone situation is different
That OK State game was a nail-biter tho. Weren't we down like 3 or 4 TDs at the half??
All great players but Dave Thomas was the key in my opinion.
Funny when the guy said this will be fun haha during the Texas vs Balor game.. 9:21 😂 😂 😂
Most amazing bowl game I've ever seen. Hook'em.
TEXAS LONGHORNS
HOPE WE GET BACK UP THERE
Love this entire clip, but it's missing the Justin Zwick fumble when Drew Kelson got him and Robison picked it up. That play shut the door on that game, and I'm not sure I've seen a more excited sideline than that play. Might be my favorite play from that season.
Yeah, I also wish I kept the Reggie Bush fumble. I cut it down from 20 minutes so I had to lose some favorites.
Man that 2005 longhorns defense put Rhett bomar on his ass all day on that red river rivalry game
I don’t know if this is a record but Texas beat Colorado 70-3 in a big 12 championship that is not normal
You can't spell victory without VY! Hook 'em Horns!
What a "sweet" year! Hook 'em!
Wow what a year, what a team! Should have shown Jamaal Charles 80 yrd run vs Choklahoma but other then that great vid. Every game that year there was a special play that you talked about all week. Hook Em \\m//
2005 Texas Longhorns aka Greater Houston Allstar Squad....aka the reason they shunned UH....aka...the reason why they left the Big 12.
No mercy for rival QBs! Bomar & McGee were on the hit list. GaaahDAMN they got fucked up. Hook 'em, baby!
That's DBU squad right there 🤘🤘
Greatest CFB team of all time
I wish Melton didn't convert to dtackle at the pro level. Probably would have been the next Jerome Bettis if they let him run the ball. Dude was a man amongst boys when he got the ball.

If I go slow I can usually last until the part where Rhett Bhomar is writhing in pain on the ground
Knee was down
I believe it was 28-12 at halftime after we hit a FG on the final play of the 2nd quarter.
No one could beat Texas that yr that team was was DAMN GOOD:D Hook em Horns and Invincible:)
1995 Nebraska would run all over 2005 Texas
Was that big 12 championship even actually a championship lol, that was a blowout
Vince turned down the heisman after it was taken away from bush. Bottom line is vy should have gotten it in the first place.
it does show that
HOOK'EM HORNS
Should put that team back to together and make it a team in the nfl
damn, they played like Alabama does today, little to no flaws in it.
+Michael Lombardo No, Alabama plays like Alabama from the bear Bryant days...

He now works for a private school in texas as a coach.
Plays for the Texas Revolution in Allen, TX. It's an indoor football league team.
