2001 #1 Miami vs #2 Nebraska 2001 National Championship

[@TexasBorn_TexasRaised]

Sean Taylor backing up Ed Reed is an insane lineup

[@noahgiddings1094]

Frank Gore and Willis McGahee Backing up Clinton Portis. Kellen Winslow Jr Backing up Shockey. Rosco Perish Backing up Andre Johnson. They also had Antrel Rolle and Johnathan Villima. That Miami Team was stacked with several NFL pro bowlers

God i wish we had The U's 2000,2001 and 2002 classes again. I'm tired of being irrelevant. I want to be a powerhouse again.

Facts....its sad i gotta watch throwback games to make me remember what we once was....hopefully mario got us going in the right direction

[@afire2818]

Facts Remember when this game was played...usf, fau, fiu, ucf football programs were not able to get good players...now usf, fau, fiu, and ucf can get players that normally would play for .Miami....in addition to all the other school that get players from Florida. Osu, GA, bama, usc, and all the other major d1 football programs don't have 4 additional football programs in their state competing with them for players

[@steelrain1313]

Never more

[@ethanreed8400]

"Track guys don't usually become skilled receivers" Andre johnson definitely bucked that trend. Hall of famer now lol

[@Monrovia1]

RIP Keith Jackson.

[@wellitsherenow]

miami was 1 of the top 3 most stacked teams ever

[@jgodoy_]

As a Nebraska fan even I knew we had no business in that game 😭😂 that game was so embarrassing and we haven’t been the same since lol

[@johnnymfbravo7163]

College team vs an NFL team.

Nebraska has not been the same since this game.

Miami hurricanes is going to be Nebraska cornhuskers and that is straight facts 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@llahhsoj7651]

Great memories. Kinda mad they didn't go crazy the second half. This team called off the dogs early back then the whole season.

[@christopherortega2812]

You cant tell me Crouch should have won the a the Heisman over Dorcey. The reason is cause Crouch had more TD's and yardage because he ran. But Dorcey was the better passer. But hey id take a Naty win over the Heisman any day.

[@user-ke8rq2de9v]

His passing efficiency wasn’t very good though if you look at the beginning graphic, he completed less than 60% of his passes with almost double digit interceptions. Those numbers wouldn’t fly today in the modern day the Oregon quarterback completed nearly 80% of his passes this season.

[@josematamoros596]

I’m a Miami long life fan and Crouch deserved the Heisman. Dorsey was never worthy of the trophy.

[@ethanreed8400]

I'd go with Portis over Dorsey if someone from Miami were to win it

[@steelrain1313]

Crouch deserved and your dumbass don’t know college ball

[@wellitsherenow]

nebraska shouldn't have even been there no chance

[@TexasBorn_TexasRaised]

Not many if any teams did

[@charlestoddsullivanforpres6628]

Nebraska never deserved to be in that game. There was only one team in 2001 that matched up well with Miami, and that was Florida.
