Imagine if Frank didn’t blow out both his knees and McGahee didn’t totally blow out his knee we would’ve beat Ohio State with ease. Frank Gore would’ve been NFL all time leader in yards and probably would’ve had a couple of 2k seasons. He is a Hall of Famer now after having to change his running style once he got there. I was on the team from 87-89 and there was a stable of great backs there Melvin Bratton, Cleveland Gary, Warren Williams, Stephen McGuire, Leonard Conely and others after I left I love the position and know when I see good to great backs but Frank Gore is the best I’ve ever seen. I think Barry Sanders is the best ever as far his stats and his abilities with that being said I feel a injury free Frank Gore is better and even more of a natural than the GREAT BARRY SANDERS.

This was a complete mismatch!! But, what caused Nebraska to be beaten so badly was mistakes and a flawed offensive strategy. There are offensive plays within the option system that were developed to handle a massive upfield rush like this Miami team had. They existed back then. That play series is the midline option. The fundamental theory like the load option, triple option and counter option is to eliminate at least one defender. In the case of the mid-line option, the defensive tackle is read while the guard goes to the LB. If the DT hesitates, release the ball to the FB in an isolation play. If DT crashes, QB pulls the ball and goes in behind the guard like a RB isolation play. This is usually run out of double wing sets, twins and trips sets. The cousin of this play is the zone read option that is popular now. What gets me is why in such an important game the preparation for this opponent wasn't more extensive. There were at least 12 game tapes for Miami that season. Certainly, some strategy could have been developed to handle that upfield rush. Whether it would have turned the tide of the game, I can't say. But, Nebraska showed they could run the ball with some effectiveness, no matter how intermittent. Still, something should have been done to force Miami to run only base stuff.

@@Mike-yj5yw I fully agree with your statement. I played in an option offense when I played football. But, there are techniques in regards to blocking to try and mitigate some of the upfield rush.Those techniques weren't even tried in this game and that's astonishing. With a defense like this, the I formation with power and load options is a terrible system to use. Even coaches that adhere to option systems state this. This game caused them to convert to double-wing, flexbone and shotgun based option sets with linemen using wide splits and more than two receiving threats at the LOS. The RPO started being used after this game because of what this defense could do. This game really was the game that caused option coaches to alter some of their offensive and game planning principles. Twenty-one years later, this game is still studied and used as a demonstrator for what not to do in a game and what can happen when appropriate adjustments are not made regardless of who one is playing against. The reason being is the mismatch was so staggering. To your point it was a total mismatch in every possible way. Still, a strategy has to be undertaken that keeps the damage down and eliminates errors. This didn't happen. You're right to be mad at Coker for not dropping 70.

Yah, This nebraska team was the beginning of the end. Basically the first team without Osborne recruited and trained players. I believe two years after McBride (great defensive coordinator) retired. The reason Crouch got so many yards is because Nebrskas RBs werent what they used to be. No one to pitch to. And Solich just wasnt the offensive innovator Osborne was. Wasnt really that great at determining the best talent to start either. That game where they got blown out by Colorado was 2 things, CU's offensive line dominated and total incompetency by the Defensive coordinator in not leaving a middle linebacker in the middle behind the line. Even the commenters were basically saying WTF. But lets be honest, this Miami team had ridiculous amount of talent, but really didnt play that well together considering. I think the 96 NU team would have handled this 2002 Miami team. That team could do everything including pass the ball and they were fast, big, and tough as hell.
@swanyay33042 жыл бұрын
Great assessment. As great as the 1995 NU team was, I would still give the 01’ Canes the win by a slight margin. I don’t think NU would have ran up and down the field against Miami. As gifted as TF was, I don’t think his passing would have been good enough to keep them at bay.

@@TheVirtualSportsNetwork Harrington wouldn't have fared any better against that Miami team. Oregon played a soft PAC10 schedule and lost to an unranked Stanford. The only reason you heard talk about how Oregon should have gotten a shot is because Colorado shat the bed in the Fiesta Bowl. There is a reason this Miami team gets the clout it does. Nobody that year even came close to touching Miami. You would have had to go back to the 94' and 95' Nebraska teams to try and find an opponent to put up a fight.
