Awwww who am I kidding? NTD, BB
2000 UW should be ranked ahead of both 01' Oregon and '13 Stanford. Neither of those teams beat Miami. 2000 Oregon State was probably better than any team they beat as well.
Asshole.
We beat Purdue pretty handily in the RB and if we'd played a better team I suspect we'd have beaten them the way we beat pretty much every other team that year: Marques magic. We beat a lot of good teams that year because Marques was fucking special.
I've never seen a QB who was a winner like Marques, quite honestly. The rest of that team was a 8-4 team, but Marques was a fucking ace. His WRs were lol-worthy and the tailbacks on that team were craptastic.
If you put the '13 UW skill players on that team (Kasen, Kev Smith, ASJ, Sankey, John Ross, fuck Mickens), we would've destroyed everyone. We had one decent skill player on that team (Stevens); everyone else was a below average player (Hooks, #myelstrom, fucking Pat Reddick, Justin Robbins).
Our defense was decent, but really only had 4-5 actually good players: Tripplett, Pharms (who was more scary than good), Daniels, Akbar. Fucking Owen Biddle started a game for us.
Paul Arnold, Rich Alexis, Chad Ward. There were some players on that team. Nothing like '91, though.
That was the last shining moment when I made myself believe again that we were BACK and ready for a nice long run under our youthful coach.
Standing on the seats watching the presentation was that last great time at a Husky game
Ward was a good lineman. Funny that he didn't have an NFL career (like most on that 2000 team). Paul Arnold was never the same after the back - HE was a crazy fucking talent but it didn't pan out of for him because of early injury. Rich Alexis was a very limited running back. Classic Nebraska power-I type guy, but could not to save his life find a hole between the tight ends.
Tui and Stevens made that team go on O, and Towns and Tripplett on D. When Vontoure did play, he was fucking awesome. Could cover and shut down anybody and was solid against the run because he was a real (as opposed to 'listed') 6 footer and played with ballz. Brutal player on the corner blitz. Loved that kid. Hate like fuck what happened to him. When someone yells they can't breathe you ought to hedge your bets and assume they're telling the truth. Fuckers. Kid needed help.
'01 Canes beat them all. That '04 USC team sent a lot of players to the NFL never to be heard from again. The '01 Canes sent more, and racked up pro bowls and super bowls. There is at least one, likely two, HOFamers on that team in Reed and Johnson. Maybe even one or two more.
Fuck me, fuck you, fuck them, fuck every fucking body. '04 SC my fucking ass. I don't even put them at #2 all-time conference.
Fuck. Just fucking fuck fuck.
I wouldn't put 01 Miami in the top ten teams of all time because of Coker. Coaching matters.
UW '91 would shut out any faggy ass Miami team, ever
You're on the wrong board
Not that year it didn't. Mediocre coaching catches up to you eventually but could not hold back a team like that. See the story of cocker shitting his pants int he locker room b4 the rose because of playing Nebraska (remember Larry spent most of his career at osu getting his ass handed to him by the classy huskers) and reed telling him to calm the fuck down because there is no way Nebraska can hang with them.
Top ten? You're high. Of course coaching matters in the long run and even the mid term, but for one season? With that team? Nope. That team had more talent on its fucking bench than 91 Washington could have handled. I could have coached them for one season.
Bottom line: Miami's line could have doubled on emtman and handled the rest without much trouble (Dwight Freeney, one of the best pass rushers in the NFL for what seems like forever, didn't touch Dorsey, so I'm not seeing Andy Mason or anyone else on that defensive front doing it either.) That would have exposed what I always thought was a vastly overrated d backfield on that D. That Miami line was awesome in pass protection.
Miami '01 runs away with that game rather easily. When they were focused, which wasn't always the case, they were fucking scary good and just overwhelmed other teams.
