- Merry Christmas! Here's a special surprise upload! Spurrier's final victory in the Swamp comes in dominant fashion over Bobby Bowden's overmatched Seminoles, but not before Darnell Dockett decides to ruin Florida's seasom by injuring Earnest Graham. I own none of the footage in this video and claim fair use. Credit to CBS.
Title game should've been UF-Miami, but we had to watch Nebraska get slapped around. Thanks, Darnell Dockett.
UF was the only team who would've been competitive with that Miami squad. Grossman should instigate a PPV fight between him and Crouch for the Heisman he was robbed of.
I was young and dont remember much about that but I’m glad to see UF was high up and should’ve been competitive with 01 canes.
it should have been but Thanks a lot Tennessee ,, no actually thanks a lot Bin Laden, thanks to 9/11 that year the Florida Tennessee game was postponed
Thanks Neil the 2001 Gator team is the best Gator team not to win a National Championship 🐊
I respectfully disagree. Although UF should have faced Miami for the National Championship, the 1984 Gator team was the best team that didn't win a Championship.
@@gordongekko5159 i respect that without the 1984 team there might not have been the 2001 team the 1984 Gator team laid the groundwork for what was to come that was the 1st SEC tittle in my book 🐊
I also haven't forgotten our 2 losses in 2001 have come from Auburn and Tennessee. Games that were missing Earnest Graham from the lineup. If only the game against Tennessee was played on that fateful week of 9/11. Of course it was postponed till the end of the season.
@@gordongekko5159 Also Tennessee was very beat up at that time of the season too...we would of destroyed them...they got healthy at end of the season and caught a break in that sense
@@gordongekko5159 i still don't know how we lost 2 games in 2001
The Christmas gift that keeps on giving. Go Gators!
YOU BET YOUR SWEET ASS GO GATORS!!!!!
Finally! I've been looking for this one for a long time. Do you have the 2003 Florida vs Arkansas game by any chance?
what about the "2003" Florida St. game?
@@bennyrobinson1935this channel doesnt post losses, go somewhere else
Coach Bowden would beat Florida 2 more times unfortunatley , but I do say as a Gator Fan Coach Bowden was one of the best coaches ever in College Football he will be missed , rest well Coach
I agree with you as a Gator fan myself also Bobby Bowden was always good tempered never lost his cool like Spurrier always did God rest your soul Coach Bowden
This was probably our second best team ever. These guys should've gone 12-0. That damn Auburn and Tennessee game were just one mistake after another. I think that's why Spurrier left he was so heartbroken after having the best team ever
Florida state Seminoles and Florida gators are both of my college football teams and that is straight facts 💯
How could we see that the 2001 season was the last time Spurrier would coach at UF? Was it true that Jeremy Foley wouldn't back Spurriers comments on Dockett twisting Graham's knee, which led to Spurrier leaving UF?
Yes
Jeremy Foley has no balls. He did not back Spurrier's criticism of Dockett's cowardess on the field. So yes, it was a factor in Spurrier leaving UF. Now that Foley is gone look at our future football out of conference opponents! We've finally stepped it up. I could never stand Foley, even when he spoke he sounded like a soy boy beta male.
This rivalry hasn’t been the same since.
Spurrier didn't do any good against Bowden only 5 wins against fsu & one of them was a bowl game Goddamn florida states dominance in the 90's
Where is the cheapshot by dockett on graham
Would’ve loved to see this Gator team take on the 01 Canes
What followed the 2001 season was 3 garbage years of Ron Zook. I became extremely concerned after Bob Stoops turned us down. I guess it was a blessing in disguise which led Jeremy Foley to hire Urban Meyer.
the best thing Zook did was Finally conquer Tallahassee after 18 years , something Spurrier could never do
Oh My God.... thank you for this upload. Go gators!!
I was a bit let down with this game back then. I fully expected the Gators to put up half a hundred on them. It seems even in these highlights that Rex was pressing for that as well instead of taking what was given.
13:54 Florida fans with the Siiiiiiiixxxx and Foooooooouuuurrrrrr chant. That stopped the Marching Chefs real quick.
Chris arid was the beginning of the end for my noles
Do have Florida gators vs Kentucky from 01
Florida was 10-0 that year with Graham at running back.
If Rex was more accurate I think this team would have won a championship or two
If Dockett wasn't a pure thug and didn't intentionally twist Graham's leg after he was down, we probably would have won a championship.

Let's not forget he also stomped on Grossman's hand after the play was over.
Noah Larsen
Grossman was totally accurate enough in 2001. In fact, he got screwed out of winning the Heisman that year in favor of Eric Crouch only because the voters weren't ready to vote for a redshirt sophomore. We lost 2 games due to Earnest Graham's absence vs Auburn and Tennessee that year. Against Tennessee, Spurrier pretty much abandoned the running game late in the 1st quarter for some reason.
@@gordongekko5159 Ernest Graham was a beast
All the drops on both sides of the ball..should have put 70 on them if we could catch it
First
there's always UA-cam and ESPN Classic for fans of UFelons
benny robinson 41-14...
2013
We know we are better when they say they used to beat us😂
