I still can't believe Sean Taylor is gone.

He might have ended up the best safety to ever play at the U , not to mention a humble & really nice guy ... R.I.P. Sean

dude was a freak among freaks, 6'3 225 lb safety lol that hit like a linebacker. He would have been the greatest ever imo

[@greenghost5009]

It’s wild cause in 2001 he was definitely on the roster, but it was Ed Reed senior season, them both on the field 😳 Rest In Love to my favorite player, forever miss you and will forever remember you #26 #36 #21

Miami was so good they could make a million mistakes and throw 2 picks and still easily win. They should’ve beaten them by 40 with ease.

[@rileyshane78]

It was against zook. Zook is terrible. The end of the 01 season it should’ve been Florida vs Miami in the championship. Florida lost a heartbreaker to Tennessee that kept them out of it.

Don't matter if it was Zook or Meyer the Gators would've got thier clock cleaned either way just like they did recently!

Miami physically dominated Florida in the trenches. That was the difference in this game. Dorsey played arguably the worst game of his career on this day. He was very inaccurate for most of the game. Miami’s defense bent but didn’t break early. They eventually took over the game and dominated the Gators. Miami should’ve won three (3) straight National Championships in this era. They were robbed in 2000 by the BCS computer. They would’ve smoked Oklahoma! They won it in 2001 with arguably the greatest college football team of all time. They were robbed again in 2002 by a terrible pass interference call in overtime in the game against Ohio State.

[@michaelwilt273]

Mcgahee crossed the goal line so it should of been a touchdown for the canes but the refs screwed over Miami again.

[@allenfitch2996]

The DPI is arguably the worst call in college history. Still hurts....

These were the days the state of Florida ruled college football im a CANES fan I'll be glad when the big 3 get back on top so we can beat up on each other and everyone else.

The sad thing is Florida refuses to play The U every year, scared of an annual beat down.

Gators got BASHED; and back in 2000 blowing out FL was Miami's compromise for being passed over for FL state after beating the Seminoles. They won the State Championship by bashing Gators.

[@kennethsmiley4062]

I loved watching this game. It's a reminder of what our DNA once was. We essentially broke Florida's collective will on their turf. An impressive win over 20 years ago that serves as a blueprint on where we need to get to beginning in 2024. We were relentless in this game, despite the mistakes we made. Go Canes!

[@theonlyseparation464]

After watching this channel’s games it’s more than apparent that Ken Dorsey wasn’t what we thought he was.

[@hawaiiancane1]

The 2002 OL wasnt nearly as good as 2001. We lost Gonzalez, Bibla, McKinnie. Coker said early in 2002 "the OL is a better at run blocking but have to work on pass blocking. " You could also see the discipline issues with the penalties.

[@chrisuncleahmad789]

To put some perspective on this blowout loss for Florida: In Steve Spurrier's 12 years at Florida, he only lost 5 home games by a combined 25 points Zook lost his 2nd home game by 25 points.

[@michaelschaefer1904]

I don't want to hear that Spurrier left the cupboard bare. He inherited a team on probation.

Same im realizing that his arm strength was an issue in the biggest game a better qb like a Carson palmer would have beaten Ohio state but now I see why he didn't succeed in the NFL lack. Of arm strength which shorten the field he plays like Taylor heinke

Dorsey played a lot of games not very well at all. Always threw off back foot. Not much arm strength. We just had super athletes to help look good. The Fiesta Bowl was super proof of that.

Ever since Ohio State denied that repeat from this team Miami wouldn’t be at these heights again and Ohio State started to really take off. Crazy thing is Ohio State 20 years later from this Miami team is going to win the national title

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

When Urban Meyer took over the Gators; this is crazy but; they never rushed for as many yards as Meyers Buckeyes do regularly; at least in any close games Id want to watch. Theyre dissapointments. I don't know why; maybe Ohios O lines are much better? Hyde and Zeke are better RBs? I can't name anybody besides Harvin that Tebow handed off to. And Tebows a slow powerback. Maybe thats it; Braxton Miller and JT are fast running QBs racking up the yardage.

[@4bidden_1]

Walter White Jeff demps & Chris Rainey

[@SeanDillenbeck]

It’s because they had different offenses and different offensive strengths. Meyers’ Gator O focused mostly on Percy Hardin who was basically a wide receiver version of Reggie Bush. Those Ohio State teams had Zeke Elliot. Also without Harvin and the Pouncey twins those Florida teams struggled to run it consistently probably because their running backs were scat backs. Thus, I think Meyer adapted his offense.
