That 2017 Oklahoma team was probably the best team they've ever had, at least the best since the Switzer Era... and that tandom of Michel and Chubb, behind that OLine was the highlight of that Georgia team and foreshadowed what they've grown into since. Oklahoma is in decline like the rest of the teams that were the core of the Big XII, and I don't think Venables era will see them resurrect this level of quality.
The amount of NFL talent that was in this game is simply amazing: Baker, Hollywood Brown, CeeDee Lamb, Mark Andrews, Joe Mixon, Kyler Murray, Nick Chubb, Sony Michel, Calvin Ridley, Raquon Smith. Wow!!!
My heart truly never recovered from this game. *I KNEW* that kick right before halftime was going to come back to bite us in the end. But with that said time has went on and I am beyond happy for Georgia and their fans on a damn good football program winning back to back championships. They are the STANDARD.
I remember when the Philly Special happened in the Super Bowl a month later, I wasn’t nearly as shocked as I should’ve been bc I’d just seen Baker do it to my Dawgs 😂
This was an amazing game. As a Pats fan I still can’t get over Bilk taking Michel over Chubb. Thought Chubb clearly led the way that season. Also got to shoutout my Katy Tiger Rodney Anderson going off
That Duo of Chubb and Michell was insane I'm a SC Gamecock fan live in GA so uga fans jam success down my throat but I had to give them this Duo they were just incredible
In the past five years Georgia has defeated Oklahoma, Alabama, Clemson, Oregon, LSU, Florida, and Ohio State. Most of those games featured numerous current NFL players. "To be the man, you gotta beat the man" Ric Flair
Baker Mayfeild Nick Chub Ceedee lamb Mekole Hardman Sonny Michelle Marquis Hollywood Brown Kyler Murry Roquan smith …. And that’s just the ones who got their name called.. crazy
@Nolan 23 also ravens/chiefs pro bowl O tackle Orlando brown jr from OU, I belive Cody Ford and Samia who were both drafted were on this sooners O line as well. This game had a ridiculous amount of talent in it
This video cannot replicate the same intense emotional roller coaster wave you rode while watching this game live. Not even close. The suspense was waaaaay off the charts!!!! If you were a fan of either of these two teams, it felt like 4 hours went by in a 10 hour span 😮💨 Definitely one of the top 3 greatest college football games I’ve ever watched 🔥
Georgia has played in 4 of the greatest games in CFP history. Rose Bowl vs OU, Both Nattys vs. Bama, and now the Peach Bowl vs OSU with the game winning missed FG as the clock struck 12 on New Years Eve. GO DAWGS!!!!!
It's amazing that we all were able to watch 2 thrillers in College Football yesterday. But does this game beat the other 2 that were played as the best game ever??
One of the Greatest college football games and rose bowl games ever they jinxed ou when showing they were undefeated when scoring 30 or more in the first half
@@mclovinlife4018 Exactly, there's just gonna be more of this, the best 12 teams in the country playing an a bracket. Either the last two rounds of the bracket are just the top 4 so it's literally exactly this or we get to see some upsets
@@gamer9smith yes! I’m fine with not going more than 12 ever, but cutting out a large number of good teams that could potentially win the championship just seems like a disservice. That’s why switched from the BCS to the CFP. Only allowing 2-4 teams to play for the championship because certain teams had one bad game/loss during the season never sat right with me.
I remeber that wheel route on 3rd&2 with 25 seconds left, was such a great call by Riley, I thought Baker got em when the ball left his hand. I think they win the game if they complete that
Dallas Cowboys, about 1983 is where I first saw it. A Tom Landry play no doubt. RB Tony Dorsett throws to QB Danny White. I think it was on MNF vs Redskins or Raiders.
Still don’t understand why Riley abandoned the running game in the second half. Great game either way. Can’t wait to see them play each other again. This game was an instant classic
One of the greatest college games ever played!!! Amazing comeback by Georgia. That was the Second year of Kirby Smart's career, and the only great players on the defense for Georgia that year were Lorenzo Carter, and Roquan Smith. Thinking about it, Oklahoma has done a 180 since that time. They now have a good defense but the offense is crap. Back then, they had one of the best offenses, but very poor defense.
As an Oklahoma fan a Thunder fan Steelers and penguins fan and even a pirates fan… this is the most hurtful loss any of them have taken. I really wish we would have won😢
I’ve never been more sad in my entire life about a football game. As an OU fan I always approach any meaningful game with my guard up. But this game gave me hope that OU was going to win and win comfortably but then Lincoln Riley did his thing and we lost.
Georgia was holding all day, and they had two NFL running backs backs. Combine that with OU not being able to tackle anyone since 2020, and you have a problem!
Stopping the run is one thing. Making a friggin tackle occasionally would have at least helped. My God the amount of missed tackles and bad angles taken as soon as chubb/michel hit the secondary was pitiful. Sooners defense in this era was pitiful. Absolutely just bad..
Michel had 181yd and 3 TD on 11 carries, and 4 rec for 41yd and a TD. Chubb had 145yd and 2 TD on 14 carries. That's a 16.5 avg for Michel and 10.4 for Chubb. For their part, Anderson had 201yd with 2 TD on 26 carries (7.7avg) and Sermon had 34yd on 2 carries. So... Chubb/Michel combined for 6 TD compared to Anderson/Sermon's 2 and outgained the OU tandem by 91 yds rushing on three fewer carries and also had 41yd receiving against -2 for the Sooner backs. I appreciate you taking up for your boys, and Anderson had the game of his life, but the two Dawgs outclassed the Sooners in Pasadena, and it wasn't particularly close.
Lincoln Riley run the ball in the 3rd Qtr. Which you never do!! Also field goal before half was big. But still Sooners run the ball in the 3rd Qtr and i think we would win it!!
The 2008 or 2017 Oklahoma teams are the best OU teams to not win it all..I'm going to go with 2017..That was their best shot to win it all since 2000..Oklahoma gave up 17 point lead in the Rose Bowl Semi-Final to Georgia..The 2017 Alabama team was the worst title Alabama team that Nick Saban has had..Alabama didn't win SEC West or SEC that year..Alabama beat Georgia in OT in the Nati' game..Anyway, the 2017 Oklahoma team had Baker Mayfield, CeeDee Lamb, and Hollywood Brown ⁉🏈🏟
Not a fan of either team, but Georgia was a much better team. Oklahoma was overrated as they had got a huge push with a fluke win at Ohio State but weeks later were beat at home by Iowa State. Not a Riley fan at all. The problem is that OU won't scrap the spread and believe that by doing the same thing for over two decades that somehow they will get different results. Getting awards for QB's is one thing but, they aren't any rings on those fingers. I think they should adopt a more run based power offence with added pro concepts in the passing game.
The fact that these 2 teams never met each other and produce literally one of the greatest games of all time says something.
You don't need the word "literally" there. Might as well have called it a groovy game.
@@L_Train😂
Elpo
how can this be one of the greatest games when there was no defense?

Also got to shoutout my Katy Tiger Rodney Anderson going off
I still can’t believe it either but idk if Belichick would give a big-money contract to a RB down the line
Michel helped the patriots win a super bowl so I don’t think the patriots are complaining

And Baker Mayfield and Nick Chubb would go on to be teammates for the Cleveland Browns for 4 years.

We are all such a prisoner of the moment. Last weekend everybody was talking about the Michigan and Georgia Ohio state game being the greatest games.

It so funny how the camera man drop the camera out 19:40
Georgia, Crushing Dreams since 2018
Jeez, the offensive talent on that Oklahoma team
yea especially CeeDee Lamb and the rest of the Oklahoma offense!
also, Baker Mayfield was the quarterback that time tho.
The fact that we didn’t win still hurts me to this day. That was the team to win it all and it didn’t happen
If Oklahoma had even a mediocre defense, they win the whole damn title that year
Memorable Game!!!!!!!! 1 of the best
This feels like it happened older than
2018
I remeber that wheel route on 3rd&2 with 25 seconds left, was such a great call by Riley, I thought Baker got em when the ball left his hand. I think they win the game if they complete that
Kyler and baker in the backfield on an option play??!!??!? Holy cow man
Hot Rod Was Great That Day. A True Georgia Bulldog Legend. 8:40
Back when Georgia used to be a proper program… now they can’t even find ONE elite running back.
Rodney Anderson went off
stoopid OU with the squib kick right b4 halftime. too cute to coach
What an insane game. Even the highlights are a nail biter lol
people dont understand that baker mayfield invented the "philly special". Should be called the "baker special"
Dallas Cowboys, about 1983 is where I first saw it. A Tom Landry play no doubt. RB Tony Dorsett throws to QB Danny White. I think it was on MNF vs Redskins or Raiders.
Did Michigan and TCU surpass this ??? or that O State-Clem barn burner
This OU team should’ve won it all. Such a shame. Even as a Texas fan baker was one of my fav players ever. I wish he could’ve won the title
Greatest game in football history
9:39 Till this day never will understand what 10 was doing loll
Taking a breather lol
Man, this one hurt. With even a half-way competent defense, OU probably wins this game and very possibly the NC.
Still don’t understand why Riley abandoned the running game in the second half. Great game either way. Can’t wait to see them play each other again. This game was an instant classic
The Dawgs may not have won the natty that year, but they certainly let everyone know that they were about to do something special.
