[@charlesshankle3178]

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.

[@charlesshankle3178]

@@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.

Dorsey was money. What the fuck were you watching all those years?

[@lindseysummers5351]

As a Nebraska fan, I knew going in that the Huskers had no business playing in this game. They got blown out and couldn't win their own division, let alone their own conference. And given how much of a tear Miami was on, no one was going to beat them.

@@adeenbenyasharal5412 Miami joined the ACC in 2004. Miami's overall record while still in the Big East the 3 years PRIOR to leaving for the ACC is as follows: 2003: 11-2 2002: 12-1 2001: 12-0 Now compare that to their first 3 years in the ACC: 2004: 9-3 2005: 9-3 2006: 7-6 you cant be this clueless, lol....maybe do some simple research before you run your mouth next time. the records show they clearly fell, after they left, not before.

@@Central_Media3656 so Miami was 35-3 in their last 3 years in Big East, then went to the ACC and in the next 3 years went 25-12, and that idiot needs the point of it all explained to him???? 🤨 When the acc invited miami, they were one of the hottest teams in CFB. you just trolling??

[@adeenbenyasharal5412]

@@Central_Media3656 you're the one that's clueless. Miami had clearly lost there dominance by 2004. 11-2 in '03 with declining discipline, inconsistent offense, close calls. Even the '02 team was at times clearly not prepared as good as they would've been under Butch. Those records '01-'03 prior to joining the ACC were of the backs of Butch's players. Again, by '04 Miami was already a shadow of what they had just recently been. A lot of it having to do with Larry Coker not being as good a recruiter as Butch as well not as much of a disciplinary coach.

[@Shaun-vy9vi]

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.

[@swanyay3304]

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.

[@michaelschaefer1904]

UF was better than Nebraska that year. A playoff was sorely needed.

[@lukemccardle2379]

Yep , and they would've been beat down just like Nebraska.

And Miami was better than FSU and should have played Oklahoma for the National Championship for the 2000 season. Either way Miami would have beaten UF and Oklahoma. Go Canes!
