A call that arguably changed the fate of both school’s football programs even now 20 years later. Sheesh
Looking back on it, Miami should have won 3 years in a row, 2000, 2001, 2002. The year 2000, the BCS standings were 1 Oklahoma 2 Florida State 3 Miami, and Miami and Florida State were both 11-1 and Miami beat Florida State head to head. But because the NCAA and the people who do the polls every week hate Miami, They made Oklahoma play Florida State instead of Miami whom they should have played. No surprise Florida State only scored 2 points in the Championship game and lost 13-2 to Oklahoma. Miami would have beat Oklahoma that year if the polls gave them a chance to play them, so they got screwed in 2000. They won in 2001 which they had the best team. Then 2002 the national championship game was clearly over, then a crooked referee throws a bad late flag, which took the championship away from Miami in 2002.
+MikeNJ27 How do you know Miami would have beat Oklahoma in 2000? How do you know they wouldn't have lost just like they did two years later to Ohio State?
+MikeNJ27 I and most everyone else alive believed that Miami should have been ranked #2 above FSU,. However, "people's hatred" of Miami had nothing to do with FSU overtaking the #2 slot in order to be included in the championship game against Oklahoma.
The BCS polls at this time consisted of three equally weighted elements: (1) AP Poll, (2) ESPN/Coaches Poll, and (3) Computer Rankings (the average of eight computer models). Only the AP Poll and the ESPN poll contained the "human elements", and both of these polls had Miami ranked #2. However, the computer rankings had FSU, Oklahoma, and Miami ranked #1, #2, and #3, respectively, and it was these computer models which are void of emotions that tilted the final poll in favor of FSU.
Show less
The NCAA acted like losing to Washington by one possession is the same as losing to Fresno State. Washington was ranked in the top 7 at the time. So it was like a slap in the face to Washington and Miami, ranking Miami number 3 instead of 2.
The same thing happened to Oregon the year they lost to Stanford by 3 points in Overtime. Oregon should have played Alabama. The 4 team playoff is good for the league.
+MikeNJ27 im a buckeye, but ur kinda right. sharp hit gamble a few split seconds after gamble had the ball.
Miami 24
Ohio State 17
Final OT
amazes me that ppl, me included came back to this play this week
Seven years later to
How bout now
@@isaiah904s Or now.
January 23rd 2023
"Initially, it actually looked like Coker's Hurricanes would benefit from the decisions of the referees, as replays showed Chris Gamble was clearly held by Hurricane defender Kelly Jennings on a third down play, where a first down would have allowed the Buckeye offense to sit on the ball and wind out the remainder of the clock. Instead, the officials missed the holding call, allowing the Hurricanes to get one more chance at the ball where they drove down the field and tied it with a field goal, sending the championship game into overtime."
I'll say it again.
With 2:25 to go in the game, Ohio State had 3rd and 10. Gamble got held TWICE in one play, Krenzel threw COMPLETE to Gamble INBOUNDS. Terry Porter did NOT throw a flag and called it OUT OF BOUNDS. Replay showed everything to be 100% BS. With just one timeout left, that call is what gave Miami the shot at getting the tying field goal.
Dude 🛑 the call was pass interference not holding
@@taburdine1 he's referring to OSU's previous possession there was holding on gamble twice on 3rd and 10
He completed the pass in bounds but was ruled out of bounds... this was before replay review in college.
In current days game.. osu gets the first down sits on the ball for the last 2:30
And wins in regulation
No pass interference, receivers and cornerbacks bump on every play going up for a pass like this. There was no pulling, or anything stopping him from catching it. Just dropped it.
***** but there was a facemask against OSU at the end of the play should've been called.
How about the face mask?
Defensive holding puts the ball at the 2.5 with a first and goal. and there was definitely defensive holding
Eagle027 Face mask was after Gamble dropped the ball. The face mask was incidental, anyway, as Gamble's momentum was carrying him into Glenn Sharpe after he dropped the ball.
***** It's called bump and run coverage. That's not holding. See that in every game when team's are near the goal line. Unless the defender actually prevents the receiver from getting off the line by grabbing him and not letting go, it's not holding, and therefore not a flag.
Gamble simply dropped the pass, before he and Glenn Sharpe even made contact.
Miami is lucky it even went to overtime for this call to have been made. On OSU's last possession in regulation, they completed a 3rd down pass to Gamble that was ruled out of bounds when replay showed that not to be the case. Plus, Miami had four chances inside the 5 yd line to score at the end and could not. They lose. Case closed.
The fact we're still arguing this call today pretty much confirms it...congrats Miami
So you’re not going to comment on Chris Gamble being held and how it was a no call?
Saints2 SuperBowl The fact that it’s still argued today doesn’t mean squat. That’s the point of controversy.. it’s usually argued about, regardless of topic, for decades, if not centuries. Even if there was no pass interference, there were two other penalties they could have thrown the flag on. Both would have resulted in a 1st and goal at the 1 for OSU.
Miami hasn't been the same since smh hopefully Mark richt can get miami back to the good ol days
No offense, but the timing of the flag has nothing to do with it. In fact, officials are encouraged to process information before throwing a flag.
C-A-T-S Cats! Cats! Cats! Thank you. Not every flag is thrown right away. Just because it isn't thrown, doesn't mean there shouldn't be a flag.
The official's greatest sin is anticipation. You have to SEE something before you can call it. Terry Porter, the official who called the penalty, SAW Sharpe interfering with Gamble. Just because he took a couple of extra seconds to throw the flag is irrelevant. Much better than throwing the flag immediately when nothing was there.
But their was nothing their LOL
kind of like your spelling ability
Tomas P thank you gator
Very interesting how you cut out the fact that the Ref who threw the flag motioned both DEFENSIVE HOLDING AND DEFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE. Are you going to debunk that fact??
Yep. The call should have been def holding like the back judge originally signaled lol
It clearly states in the rulebook that a facemask can be grabbed and pulled if it's 4th down in an important game.
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
I love how everyone focuses on this call that literally could have gone either way, but seem to forget about some of the trash calls and nocalls during the rest of the game.
"3rd & wrong" or "the mugging of Chris Gamble" ends the game in regulation w/o controversy.
Ever heard of Bill Buckner? Its a big deal because if you watch enough sports you know the difference is one or two plays
Either way? You're clueless
This call was basically the dagger to Miami in that game. But the nasty knee injury to ol Willie was what actually cost em the game
@@floydd4779 no ... you are.
People always forget the only reason Miami got the ball back late in the fourth was a blown holding call by a Miami DB on Chris Gamble. If they don't miss that ball, OSU keeps the ball and Miami probably never gets it back.
It's crazy to think that Miami didn't win with the most talent ever, Ohio state deserved it and earned it
It’s crazy that OSU has the refs on the damn team.
That 4th and 14 play happened in overtime. I was talking about 2 blown or missed calls in regulation that favored Miami. Might have? There is no room for "might haves" in football. Only "dids". The ref was 110% sure. He said so after the game too and the call was ruled correct by the National Association of Sports Officials. Sharpe did not stay off Gamble til the ball got there. The ref said Gamble was being held the whole time. I'll take the word of the guy who was 10 feet from the play.
You’re smoking dust. Did you even see the play? Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE understands that this was AN INCORRECT CALL!
Babbling about calls and/or no-calls earlier in the game is cute for crybabies to do. But 4th & goal in OT with the game on the line? Yeah, that call NEEDED to made correctly, and as a fan who hates Miami with a seething passion, I’m here to tell you it was butchered to hell & back! That was a beyond a gift from the Zebras. It was literally STEALING a National Title AWAY from Miami & GIVING it to a program that did NOT actually “win it” on the field! Insofar as Miami is perhaps the dirtiest, slimiest program that’s ever existed, people shed no tears for them on getting ROBBED. Couldn’t have happened to a better group of thugs. But let’s keep your roll in check. OSU fans have ZERO to brag about. They shouldn’t have even accepted the trophy.
@@johncooper2265 So you talked to everyone about the play? You have a brain the size of a grain of dust. Cryami was not robbed.
There may have been "hand checking", but no holding by Sharpe on Gamble. Are you dreaming this?
Yep, good call
You should make a video showing the hold against Gamble and the catch he made that was called incomplete. This game rightfully should have ended in regulation with Ohio State taking a knee.
I've heard that nonsense before. The ref gave the Suckeyes that NC.
@@mickey3424 ua-cam.com/video/pt1PGQ6zzy0/v-deo.html
@@mickey3424 The refs were the only reason Miami made it to OT and you're blaming them? lol 17-14 Ohio State runs out the clock if they call the correct call on 3rd & 5 with 2 minutes left. Gamble was held twice and still caught it. Or the punt return where there was numerous blocks in the back.
@@mickey3424 watch the play then and he held him twice in front of the ref
@@jacobshifflett5117 Miami fans don't want logic. They just want to cry because they haven't been relevant since. 👍
I'm not going to lie, the pass interference call wasn't amazing. But it was just as useful as the defensive holding which easily could've been made. And it doesn't do justice to how many times OSU was fucked over in the regular 4 quarters.
They held The Ohio State defense ALL. GAME. LONG. man.
Jerseys stretched ALL NIGHT to keep them from Dorsey. Rewatch Miami's first drive, 1st & 2nd downs were both a loss, they quickly realized they had no choice.
PI is just a lesson in human psychology.
Lol. He cuts the video on the zoom in right before the CB grabbed the WR jersey at the shoulder pads and held
The refs also missed a block in the back on Miami's long punt return that set up the game-tying field goal. How Cryami fans can scream "robbery!" about this game is beyond me. If OSU had lost, it would have been true robbery.
I love how you use the "That's not enough to call a foul in OT of the National Championship game" piece. There was a hold, a pass interference, a face mask, and a second holding, all in the same play. Was it an important play in an important game ? Sure, but it doesn't mean u just get to melee with no repercussion. I wish you would break down the calls of the rest of the game, your head might explode. There has been no referee dispute the call, just sports broadcasters and Miami fans.
I didn't see any hold. Gamble has his hands on the defender too. Not even a foul in the NFL as it was under 5 yards from scrimmage.
"clearly he wasn't sure, and therefore shouldn't have thrown a flag on fourth down in overtime of a national championship game."
or
"clearly he wasn't sure, and therefore should have thrown a flag on fourth down in overtime of a national championship game."
both perfectly valid statements
Most ridiculous call in the history of college football. Even Gamble admits these many years later that he was not interfered with.
The reason it looked like pass interference was Chris Gamble dropped the ball and how he was positioned, the defender was in between his path (wouldnt have caught it anyway) and the ball. So it looks like there was interference.. I always thought once a receiver tips the ball, contact is allowed. I guess they felt he should have been given a chance to try and catch the ball again.. FOH!! That is the worst call ever made with everything on the line!!
U MAD BRO?
All the Miami fans cry about this play, but guess what? If at the end of the 4th quarter they would have called the OBVIOUS pass interference on you guys, this game would never have been in overtime.
Contact is allowed within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage. There should have been a no-call.
This just screams "Made by a Miami Hurricanes fan."
i love how this video is based entirely around you don't call it at this moment. Well why not? its not like it 100% cost a national title for miami. they had the same chance as ohio state when we committed pass interference in the end zone. They just didn't capitalize. We did. Game Over
anyone with eyes outside of Ohio can just watch the video and see there was no penalty. ohio st needed a bad call in the endzone to win the game in ot...they needed mcgahee to hurt his knee to get to ot. and i rooted for ohio st to win that year.
Paul H to say there was no pass interference i get that. but to say there was no penalty whatsoever..... come on son......there was al least defensive holding which is an automatic first down as well and the ball is a half yard further out. Miami still had a chance to win but they didn't stop us and they didn't answer either. We won they lost. simple as that
@@paulh7026 Actually it was defensive holding, the defender is pulling Gamble's jersey and then wraps his arms around him long before the pass was even thrown.
Either way, first and goal from the 2.
Oh and btw, the actual contact was out of camera. Ball was in the air, you can see it on the angle looking towards the endzone.
14 pt favorites have no business crying about a “bad” call in OT. Especially when bad calls were the only reason that they even got to OT 🤷♀️
Horrible call. Miami got robbed. The Suckeyes got bailed out by the refs. Gamble could have caught that before any contact was made. The official closest to the play called incomplete, and then suddenly a delayed flag appears. Total bullshit. One of the worst calls I've ever seen.
keep crying Criami, this game shouldn't had been close.
MattBuckeyeGuy
Just because Miami was heavily favored doesn't mean it shouldn't have been close. We see in college football all the time, teams rising up to make it a game. Ohio State is a big school and was a Conference Champ, not some lightweight. Fact is, the ref didn't consider that the contact made was legal within 5 yds. It's very similar to the No Call in SB XLVII where Crabtree of SF was jamed close to the endzone by the Baltimoe DB. It wasn't a penalty but everyone who isn't use to seeing the 5 yd chuck zone being used that close to the endzone thought it was.
OSU and UM and, of course, Penn State are the most corrupt programs in NCAA history and all their national titles should be stripped.
AG Shut up. They were not robbed. Ohio State should have won it in regulation. The refs allowed you to send it to overtime so quit your bitching.
GreenDay1981 Great response GreenDay...AG gives FACTS along with his opinion...and yet...NO FACTS at all from you....and then you accuse him of bitching! LOL So what...exactly..would you call your comment?? Tell all of us why OS should have won in regulation and how the refs "allowed" AG ...or anyone else...to send it to OT? Realty check...since having to play for the national title....NOT Voted...OS has one Natl Title.... And, bottom line..... it's tainted!! Bitch about that.....LOL
I remember this game very well. Miami was like this decades Alabama back then, and so naturally I rooted for OSU. But I remember thinking it was still a BS call. Watching it again 20 years later and I still think the same. Saying that it’s some kind of make up call or karma for a previous unrelated blown call is not a valid reason.
Karma
Wow worst selective memory video in the history of videos. You left out the plays in which the Buckeyes were robbed on the previous drive. Had those flagrant lack of penalties not occurred, the Buckeyes would have already won the game, and this silly conversation wouldn't have been had. Probably the best BCS game I have ever seen.
The refs were actually for Miami in that game and Ohio State still won.
As I've said to every Miami fan - go back to regular time before UM tied the game with a field goal. Gamble was held TWICE on the same play in front of the same official. Also - there was not a replay when Gamble still caught the ball. Go back and watch the video. If the official is actually competent, Buck have a first down for defensive holding and probably run out the clock.
Miami fans don’t like to talk about that…..it hurts their “we were cheated” narrative which is clearly fake and false
The only thing that matters is that Miami came in as they ALWAYS have, full of arrogance and hubris and disrespect (not just the players, the whole organization, fans included). And the only point I'm making about that is, when a team like that loses the game, it's like watching any villain get taken down. Great champions have respect, and Miami tends to forget that whenever they're on the top.
Heck even the announcer said bad call. Enough said.
Announcer, ha. Dan Fouts, NFL QB, 15 seasons, 3 QB to throw for over 40,000 yds.
Biggest bullshit call in college football history. So much on the line and they make THAT call.
Um....sorry but I attended the game. It was an obvious penalty and it occurred at the line of scrimmage. It is from the opposite camera angle, as the television camera is behind the line of scrimmage and not in front of it when it occurred. Everyone at home on their couch who doesn't like Ohio State always thinks they know it didn't happen, when they are actually full of crap. I watched it happen and so did everyone there telling the truth. You can't still be jamming a receiver while the ball is in the air. And, he didn't just jam him. He held him (you can see him start to reach up into Gamble in nothing resembling a pushing or jamming motion but a grabbing one). And, he doesn't let loose until Gamble pulls away himself and makes his way to the endzone. Even if the ref had determined it was defensive holding (and not just a jam) instead of pass interference, it still would have resulted in a first down for Ohio State. The camera does not show when the ball was thrown. By the way, when Ohio State was driving to put the game away, Miami also grabbed and pulled a fistful of jersey clearly on camera on third down play and it was not called. They then got the ball back and sent it to overtime. The game should have never gone to overtime. They were holding Ohio State receivers all night. You can see at least one more example of this on camera if you watch the game in its entirety. So, all the Ohio State haters need to STFU.
we buckeye fans know and can prove we won the game at the end of regulation, we know Miami should have never got the ball back to tie the score, just sad no one outside of ohio knows this.
+jasartrip9598 Gamble is out of bounds. And you are looking for a flag on 3rd and 7. Its tackle football not ballet.
MikeNJ27 you out your mind? the ball is in his hands, not only is his foot inbounds half his body is in before he rolls out. and you are not allowed to purposely grab a handful of a players jersey to stop them from juking your ass and blowing by you. it was a first down and buckeyes run out the clock. only the buckeyes got screwed. if you cant score on 1st and goal at the 1 yard line i am sorry but your not the better team.
+GreenDay1981 I am also sorry that we have produced more legends than OSU.
jake bash You're produced more convicts, I know that.
+GreenDay1981 and you have produced more busts.
It's simply the worst call i have ever seen in sports
I feel like the call could’ve gone 50/50 either way. It’s just one of those plays.
On third down a catch by Chris Gamble was ruled incomplete due to his being out of bounds. Replays showed that Gamble's jersey was held on the play by his Miami defender, and his catch was actually caught in-bounds. If the play had been called correctly Ohio State probably could have ran out out most of the clock. But the Buckeyes were forced to punt and Groom punted the ball 44 yards.
Maurice Clarett, it was later determined, should not have even been on the field. He was no longer a student at OSU and was playing illegally. He said shortly after this that he had not even attended classes in months before the end of that term. This can go on and on forever, this whataboutism, the fact is, that particular call was dead wrong and bad and it cost Miami their 6th NC. I heard it said once that there is probably a penalty on every single play in a football game, technically. The back judge should not have thrown that flag 3 seconds late in that situation, especially after the side judge already blew the play dead, the pass incomplete, and the game over.
3:40 refs are taught to make a call if they see it regardless of the magnitude of the game.
This game taught us games can be rigged by crooked officials and Im not even a Miami fan. One that was a tipped pass.. Second ball made contact with the WR before the defender made contact.
argue all you want the reality is we cant go back to 2003 and change it
you are also forgetting the play in regulation where gamble caught a pass for a 1st down with 2 minutes to go that was called incomplete when replay showed it a catch, game over in regulation 17-14 OSU
OSU fans are the worst.
This call pretty much single handedly destroyed the miami dynasty. I can’t belive it’s still under debate today...............
David Kolb as a Miami fan I gotta say Larry Coker was the one who destroyed our dynasty if Butch Davis never left maybe Miami would have a few more good seasons
No this play changed the course of history it was not pass interference
its sad 6 years later you still haven't given up on this
That was absolutely pass interference! He was making contact before what you show
thats why the ref was fined and resigned to avoid an fbi investigation and the NCAA's investigation concluded the call was of PI was made specifically because of ease of opinion. Dude quit to avoid a real investigation, thats like him saying I cheated
Carl French no he was not u have no ideal what your talking about
It’s clear that at the start of the play there is holding.
BINGO! That's what the Miami people never talked about. That DB could not guard Chris Gamble at all.
Even play-by-play man Keith Jackson called it "They could've called holding there". Nuff said.
@@GodfatherInOhio dude you guys are on drugs prove to me it was holding stop deflecting the call was pass interference not holding. Your argument is baseless. This is why you guys dont want to talk about the actual call which was NOT Pass interference your championship is tainted with the blood of the Miami Hurricanes who are the actual owners of that title. Its called highway robbery enjoy your tainted title stupid
@@taburdine1 Just shut up. You're in the minority here, ass hat. No one outside of your pussy ass fanbase thinks Cryami was screwed. I know you're jealous because Cryami hasn't done jack shit since this game but that's your own problem.
i think there could have been holding...... but can you point to the time stamp where that is CLEAR?
With 2:18 remaining in the game with the Buckeyes leading 17-14, Ohio State faced a third-and-long. Chris Gamble ran a simple out route toward the Ohio State sideline but his jersey was grabbed by Miami cornerback Glen Sharpe, just as he made his cut. Replays clearly showed the infraction. But get this: Gamble caught Craig Krenzel’s pass INBOUNDS as he rolled toward the sideline.
Not only did the same official, Terry Porter, of the Big 12 Conference officiating crew, not call the defensive holding penalty, officials ruled the play an incomplete pass. Tape of the play clearly showed that Gamble caught the pass inbounds, but it was replayed only once during the broadcast of the game. Remember, this was before the replay system had been implemented in college football.
If the officials had called either the defensive holding or ruled the pass complete, Ohio State would have been awarded a first down, then Krenzel would have kneeled down three times to end the game. Ohio State would have won the game, 17-14, in regulation. Miami then kicked a game-tying field goal on the final play of regulation.
I love how one can definitively say "gamble touched the ball before sharpe made contact" while at the same time showing a clip where gamble, and sharpe's arms, arent even visible in the frame WHILE THE BALL IS IN MIDAIR
I mean sure, its possible there was still no contact during that period. but there was a certain lack of proof in that video
No doubt. But go BUCKS!
B/R considered this as one of the top 25 college games of all-time. I don't believe they would've done this if game was tainted.
@ragzy02 OSU were the first team ever to go 14-0, ended their season by winning a game when they were 11.5 points underdogs, and won that game by having a near perfect game plan. So you call them "Weak" and say that Miami was the "greatest college football team of all time". Late in the 4th quarter, the Buckeyes got a 3rd down pass called incomplete. It was a bad call. A correct call means that OSU wins in regulation. That call was the only reason for overtime. Give OSU some credit, damn.
certainly a thorough analysis but absolutely from a subjective anti-OSU viewpoint
even an osu fan should know that was a terrible call
ohio state won with 2 minutes to go in the 4th quarter, yet i bet not one miami fan knows what im talking about but every ohio state fan does.
Ball was tipped at the line before Gamble even made contact with it. Horrible call Miami should have won
BULL CRAP WHO ELSE WAS A MIAMI FAN THAT REMEMBERS THIS MAN THIS MAKES ME PISSED
As an ohio state fan i'd like to sincerely apologize. If it makes you feel any better we just got hosed vs Clemson.
@@stillmatic03 no it doesn't give us our title back we won it fair and square
@@taburdine1 im still pissed about this. not only we didn't get our championship. I think this has haunted us for 17yrs
@@Tommyitalianlife bruh I totally agree with you on this I have saw the truth since this happened. For a ref to actually make a call which obviously was not pass interference this title should be stripped from OSU immediately and given to the U ASAP.
@@taburdine1 whats sad is this is not the only time for us. we should have 7 c champs. refs hated us
Does anyone want to talk about all the missed calls in the game before this? Miami had it coming at some point.
They never will
Look clown how many stupid ass people are on here good lord the call was pass interference Ok nobody cares about some random missed call by the Refs this call changed the course of history stupid. Your deflection does not work Ok the call was Pass interference which never happened enjoy your rigged National championship
@@faceones Ok let's talk about it in any court of law any other arguments would be baseless the fact is there was a flag thrown that cost Miami there 6 th National championship any other arguments would be futile .The fact is there was a flag thrown that changed the course of history this play needs to be revisited because history is based on facts not your deflection to avoid what actual happened. The bottom line is this was not pass interference that is the reason for the deflection Ok.This 2003 National championship will go down in history as tainted and highway robbery there should be a warrant issued for the NCAA and all of the OSU Buckeyes who played in that game. Again I have watched this play probably 30 times Gamble bobbled the ball then Gamble made contact with him Miami won the game bottom line. Just remember there is Miami Hurricanes blood all over that title because they earned it in battle it wasnt giving to them by some paid off Ref .Just Remember Willis Mcghee hurt his knee during this game damn near ended his career to lose a game like this on a bad call by a paid off ref is ridiculous. Just remember jesus hates liars and hypocrites this I can promise you that jesus will do the right thing and give the title back to the actual owners the 2003 Miami Hurricanes and Jesus will expose the liars who were bought and paid for by the OSU Buckeyes to Rigg that game against the Hurricanes. The 2003 National championship will go down in history as tainted. The difference Is I can admit that the Refs missed a couple of holding calls but you criminals can not admit that ,that was not pass interference. I hope your fan base who accepted this rigged title go to hell with all you devil's who belong in hell .Jesus will be back soon he sees everything Ok
Someone needs a hug... LOL. Only a moron doesn’t see that if the officials had called the obvious holding on Gamble that led to the preceding punt, or given him credit for the catch he made, OSU would have run the clock out. There would have been no overtime. Then, the officials missed a blatant block in the back on the punt. And... the defender held Gamble going into the end zone at the very least. It was a good call. Refs finally called the cheating Hurricanes for a penalty. It was glorious! Also the beginning of the downfall of Miami football. Sweet!!!!!
@@DavidG-td9gi dude that was not holding stupid. Secondly the call was Pass interference stupid. We all know it was not pass interference OK bottom line is the whistle blow the players ran on the field Miami won that game fair and square they didn't need a ref to rig a game like OSU did.Again the call was pass interference.Stop fucking deflecting we all know by the video he wasnt held or the bullshit facemask you clowns keep complaining about.This guy who did this video did a excellent job at exposing the NCAA and the Ohio State Suckeyes as fugitives from justice they both should be charged with crimes of highway robbery .
Bad call. I don’t think Miami has gotten back to this level since this. I remember watching this when I was younger.
why look back at the ref if it clearly fell incomplete if you weren’t worried about getting flagged for something you did?
I remember seeing this like it was yesterday and the announcers must have said at least 6 times that it was a bad call.. It's bad enough to lose a game on a penalty, but to lose it on a bad call in a game involving the National Championship.. I still to this day can't believe that Larry Coker didn't contest this..
Miami hasn’t been the same since this horrible call smfh hopefully the U comes back to life against Alabama
@@ddollaz33 Butch Davis built that team and Larry C. Inherited it.. And since Butch was no longer there to coach and sign the players, Miami gradually went downhill. Would be nice to see Miami do it once again... It's been a long time in the making...
Dan "Winslow" Fouts repeatedly screamed "bad call!!!" like the unprofessional hack he is. Keith Jackson pointed out that there was CLEARLY defensive holding on the play. Let's also ignore that this play was later reviewed by the head of Big 12 officiating who concluded that the Miami DB (Glen Sharpe) committed 4 penalties on the play...2 defensive holding, 2 P.I., each results in half the distance to the goal, and an automatic 1st down. You lost the game. Ohio State beat you. It's over. It's done.
When everyone tells you you're going to win and you don't, you naturally will feel like you were cheated out of it or it was stolen from you.
This game called properly ends in regulation with a complete pass to Gamble and a fresh set of downs to kneel out.
Any "contest" is just anti-OSU's way of dealing with it.
@@garyjones2582 ain’t happening brother This administration doesn’t care about winning wants they tore ob down it really over for the mighty canes all I got is memories of how great we used to be smfh

The call is not controversial it was a rigged call for OSU bottom line .

I mean I get it you can't stop the guy all night but he's not going to win the game and two plays with less than a minute left. That's Bush League bullshit. Thank God he's a beast and ended up having a career. Cuz I would have been real shitty
@@HuddshouseofRockNMetal not all fans. We should have beat you all down. Us losing that game was more ourselves than anything else. But go ahead and watch the replay of that hit on McGehee at the end of the game that was unnecessary and tell me that wasn't intentional. Dude put his full helmet and weight literally on Willis's knee. That's Bush League bullshit. Where the hurricanes were supposed to be the bad guys and we won't even do that kind of shit
He held him as he cut back, don't be so blind. He held him .
"Never should have happened." BULLSHIT.
The refs TOTALLY MISSED, AND BLEW AN OBVIOUS PASS INTERFERENCE CALL DURING REGULATION. Watch the whole game. The pass interference call was on a pass thrown into the end zone that would have resulted in a touchdown. This game SHOULD NEVER have gone into OT in the first place.
Regardless, Sharpe was all over Gamble except for a split second before the ball touched his hands. Yes, it is legal to bump him at the line of scrimmage, but Sharpe was all over him, even beyond five yards down field. Pass interference.
Coming from a Kansas Jayhawks fan, you're wrong on every level.
You do not fix a bad call by making another bad call. It has happened before, but that doesn't mean it's what SHOULD happen.
And there was no pass interference at all. I play tight end in high school and I can tell you that tight ends get hit MUCH more than that without calls.
Lastly, it was before the pass, so that's like saying, for example, a defensive end could not hit the tight end when he's going out for a route.
Tainted? Nope 100 percent legit. Miami had a chance to stop ohio state and had another overtime to win the game. Also, a call was missed earlier which could have resulted in ohio state winning the game earlier.
ChillyWilly007 winning or for the tie? Doesn’t matter, no game is perfectly officiated but this was clearly controversial. Miami got robbed on this one and yes, the fact that even now this call showcases as a segment on sports media, it means it’s still talked about and tainted.
Remember, the 5 yard incidental facemask was still a thing in 2002. So if it wasn't a 15 yard penalty it should still be a 5 (and a 1st down)
+blackandblue10 NOT when 'pass interference' was the call!
@@carlspackling7159 Ohio State fans using that to hang on to knowing they bought and paid for a national championship. wonder how many rings and jerseys that ref got after the game to sell at auctions?
@@ethel1690cardew There was fucking pass interference, fucking cry mad about it, baby.
Good news is Miami went on to be ridiculously successful for the next 2 decades and Ohio State was put in its rightful place; crap nvm
i mean its one thing to miss a call but to completely change the winner of the fucking national championship game is sickening, just taints college football
Gamble had no chance of making that catch, this is a pretty good video on this horrible call. I've seen more contact in plenty of college and pro games that goes uncalled. That should have come down to the line judges call.
Linesman is assigned the receiver in the slot. FJ is assigned the wide out to his side. That the Linesman doesn't flag i insignificant as his eyes are on his man until the end.
damn we could of used these refs in sb 47 i mean the contact on crabtree was way worse ... regardless i like how the ref had the balls to make the call unlike in that sb
Chill I’m a hurricanes and ravens fan😂😂😂
The only reason Ohio one was because they paid the referees
It's funny how you so vehemently call OSU's title "tainted", yet Auburn's 2010 title is legitimate. Clearly an SEC mark.
huh
RMC McCormack None of your business. Blocked.
I'm an OU fan, but I have to give it up for Miami of 2001 and 2002.Absolutely, without a doubt, THE most talented team to ever suit up a college uniform. @MPettrozzaIsGod.Ohio State had a total of 267 yards,2.8 avg. per rush,9 penalties,6 punts, and Krenzel was7 for 21for 122 yards 0TDs and 2 INTs.Clarett had 23 rushes for 47 yards! I'm not saying Ohio State was a 'bad' team, just the 'weakest' national champion(and the luckiest)I've ever witnessed. Being lucky is truly better than being good!
Fuck you more pros drafted than Miami we won when it counted because we had a defensive line

Thats pass interference. Hes holding him and wrapping around him instead of playing the ball
The ref that made the call indicated 'holding'.
what is the song being played during the replays of the call? Not the song at the end.
As an Oklahoma fan with no bias, I see no pass interference.
Thank you
You guys know that the referee won an award for making that call the ncaa went back and reviewed, they said that it was the right call.
NCAA giving an award for doing something allegedly right is kinda hilarious. next to the Mafia they are the biggest gang of crooks in the USA.
i cant remember where i read it, but the official who threw the flag said it got caught in his belt and took him an extra second to throw it. happens all the time.
It doesn't matter when the penalty is called, wether at the end of the game or not, a penalty is a penalty.
All that you need to do here is to be realistic,meaning that there are many Ohio State fans that will make negative remarks about this comment(s). Also be realistic about the fact that whether you're a Miami or Ohio State fan you know for a fact that this pass interference should never have been called on such a decisive point in a game! That is just logical for Buckeye and Canes fans. In fact, that is well understood and accepted by any football fan that understands this sport. Both players here had a clear and perfect chance to go after this ball. The Buckeye receiver obviously beat the Miami defender and he just simply dropped a catchable ball leaving the authority the tough task of deciding the outcome to the biggest game of that season. Again, these folks (the referees) shouldn't have the right to decide it unless it would have been a close or certain call to make. By the way I'm a Seminole fan,that shows you that even though I was happy that the Canes lost I fully understand that they were robbed in a huge way! All of the Miami Hurricanes football program's scandal(s) never felt right and were never accepted by most throughout the country. That is mainly what led to this bad call along with other crucial calls against this program, and there could very well be more underway for this team. So get ready Hurricane fans,because they will always hold a grudge against you! Envy will always take part of human activities! Yes even in sports! The U will eventually bounce back some day but my Noles have the chance to shine now!
Fine. Lets just agree Ohio State should have won in regulation, 17-14. There was alot less controversial BS that allowed the game to go to overtime. Roscoe Parrish got that nifty punt return due to an illegal block in the back, for example. Ohio State had to punt in the first place due to another blown call on the previous play.

And our final drive wasnt a crucial moment in the game when the refs blew TWO calls ultimately gifting Miami an OT chance?
Fuck off man.
Jev Miller What about the play clock being at zero on your last drive.
Buckeye fan here. Yeah, it was a bad call but y'all should've stopped us on 4th and 14.
P.S. Hope The U gets back great again.
Bad call? U watching the same replay? The Miami defender looks like he's slow-dancing with the Buckeye WR. VERRY OBVIOUS!
@@GodfatherInOhio I'm just sayin it was a questionable call. They should have stopped us in regulation instead of cryin about this call.
MIchael Fassbender we got robbed by the officials bad.
@MIchael Fassbender it hurt man to tell you the truth.
@@ramblin_man23 should have just won the game then kiddie
My grandpa is one of the biggest Buckeye fans in the world, and he thinks this was one of the worst calls in football history.
Fucking liar.
The commentators didn't see the whole play. The call was upheld by the National Association of Officials and made the list of one of the 18 Best Calls Of All-Time so suck on it.
I still am pissed at this
Im a Miami fan and im surprised the NCAA didnt strip that National Title or scholarships from Ohio State now knowing the Maurice Clarett was involved in before the school dimissed him. Either way that National Title was handed to them in a silver platter & that call was the horrible.
actually it was 2002 even though the game was in 2003, it was still the 2002 season.
Bad call, Bad call....said Daddy.
Still pissed off about this call ! Go Canes
Good call
@@faceones it's not a good call it's the worst call in all sports history
Huckleberry Pry nope there was holding before the play and gamble caught the ball before that so your just blind
faceones ok I would have to agree this and the saints rams pass interference calls were both great calls
Google Account that was clear this was not he was early and holding on the play the game is over quit whining
Gamble was held the entire time the pass was on the way
This is why geriatrics should never be reffing College and NFL games they can't see and they can't remember what the rules were. this game ended on Monday night and the flag came Tuesday afternoon.
Oh, you can also see it at 0:16. Or at 2:08 when this poster says, "Ball leaves Hand". What you cannot see on that angle is that when "Ball Leaves Hand" contact is still being made. Look at multiple angles since there is no one angle that has all of the players involved on the screen at the same time through the whole play.
0:23 LOL
Producer - "Go to Camera D Now, hurry, Camera D!"
Camera D - ::Zoomed in on nut sack::
Hahahahaha, it's awesome that Miami fans obsess over this. There is clearly holding on Sharpe when Gamble crosses the goal line and first looks back at Krenzel. If the ref called holding the result would've been the same.
Also, sorry you couldn't score in the 2nd OT on 1st and goal at the 1yd line.
STFU the call was pass interference diot. Stop fucking deflecting from the call .There was no holding visible on that play you OSU fans are criminals
@@taburdine1 Oh look, you're here too.
@@taburdine1 It would have been over before that flag if the refs didn't screw the buckeyes first. Gamble had a catch for a first down that they ruled incomplete when he was in bounds by far.in the fourth quater Miami fans tend to forget that one
the problem with this video is it never really focuses on the part where the penalty occurred, gamble was held where keith jackson said there could have been holding and thats what the field judge saw, the penalty wasnt where they were jumping for the ball
That the left arm was held?
That video that shows Miami got 1 and goal on the 2 with 4 downs and was unable to punch it in?
That video, right?
