Probably would have given that Miami team a pretty good game...better than Nebraska


Tenn and Florida probably could have hung with a focused Miami team for just over a half that year. 2001 Miami was the best team I've ever seen. The talent level on that roster was staggering. That Rose Bowl against Nebraska was over in about 8 minutes.

2001 Tennessee was the best team Richt ever beat.

ETA: 2001 Miami had 17 eventual first round draft picks on their roster. Jesus Christ.

that's actually a really good topic that could use its own thread. They probably would get the nod though if I had to guess.

Downfalls on that team's resume include a loss at home to an 8-4 UGA with a new coach and FR quarterback, and a loss to LSU with a backup QB in the biggest game of the year. Top to bottom, that team was stacked, but they sure lost 2 head scratchers that season that they probably shouldnt' have lost.
