re: Ranking the Top 10 Greatest College Football Teams Since 2000 (Bleacher Report)

People talk about 01 Miami all the time and replace their memories with NFL memories. nobody remembers that Virginia Tech had the game won and gave it away (just needed a chip shot FG but threw an INT trying to throw the ball away to stop the clock). Nobody remembers that they had a new head coach. Nobody remembers that the Big Least was one of the worst conferences of all time. They were not just bad, they were really awful.

They were not the best team I saw that decade. They had the best talent. They had the best roster. But, they had the easiest schedule of any national champion since BYU in 1984.

They didn't even play a top 10 team yet they are crowned the best ever? They are widely viewed as the best team ever because nobody saw them play (especially Miami fans who didn't show up for the games).

People on the west coast thought they were something because they stomped Washington (finished unranked) in the dirt.

I watched a lot of their games because I was down there during that season doing business. People just look at their roster and ditto head what others say.

There are several teams on this list that would not lose to the '01 Canes.
