Miami 5 national championships with 4 different head coaches. Schnelly made the blueprint, Butch put together the best college football team ever assembled, Erickson was an offensive genius and Johnson was a top 2 or 3 all time college coach. Each rebuilt the team. We had the best string of coaches any school has ever had.

[@lukedavis2490]

Overall, The U is an exciting documentary that gives the audience a behind the scenes view into the success and controversy surround Miami University in the 90s and early 2000’s. It appeals to a wide variety of people and has something to interest almost everybody, with everything from team highlights to statistics to interviews with coaches. The rare footage from locker rooms, practices, and even the huddles in games allows one to feel like a member of the the team and witness the culture of the Hurricanes that ordinary reporters can’t capture. The film does an excellent job of presenting the story responsibly and neutrally, which is impressive considering the interviews of players that are biased to their alma mater and the numerous scandals surrounding the team. All of the polarizing information and topics that The U covers would make it incredibly easy to, and even difficult not to, create a film that presents the team in a biased manner, but the director masterfully manipulates it in such a way that viewers can draw unique, different conclusions. I give this documentary a 10/10, and would recommend it to anyone, even if they’ve never watched football in their life.

Alright, here's a bit of crossover info. I watched the whole thing on ESPNU. At the end, they showed highlights of Miami's success. What caught my eye was a clip where a defensive tackle, #94 D. Johnson, creamed the quarterback of what I think is UCLA. DT #94 D. Johnson didn't make it in football, but he did in the entertainment industry. Ladies and gentlemen, that was Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. He had a decent career, but in his freshman and senior years he tore his ACL, and wasn't drafted.

[@knightguy11]

You are right. Wuerffel has been ranked as a top five college quarterback of all time. He had amazing numbers in college and won the Heisman. He was drafted in the 4th round. They say he didn't have the arms strength(not enough zip on the ball). He played 6 seasons in the NFL and started some games as well. He was the MVP of the Wold Bowl in 2000. Not all great college players translate to the pros. Especially QB's. There is a long list of great college QB's that didn't make it in the NFL.

And I think that game was what gave the SEC the momentum it has today; and it started the Big Ten on a downward slide, that seems to get worse every year.

[@jeremy10ization]

Honestly, I'm tired of people trying to debate what's gonna happen. I think people mostly do it because the game is such a long time away, and people get bored until then. But, the outcome depends on so many factors like turnovers, penalties, how Golson plays against the Bama defense, and how well Bama runs the ball. So many games don't go as expected, like the 2010 AU-Oregon game, everyone thought it would be really high scoring, and it was not. The 1992 Bama-Miami game was another example.
