Been watching and studying college football for about 43 years,this is the best college defense I have ever seen. And one of the 2-3 best teams ever in the Big Ten conference.
@@ponyboy2195 So was FSU who was recognized as a DYNASTY by the NCAA. youtube: Florida State versus Michigan - 1991 The final score ... 51-31. Fifty-one is the most number of points allowed by a Michigan team in Ann Arbor in its 113-year football history! It was the 3rd-most points ever scored on the Wolverines, and the most since 1958.
No the true Rose Bowl hider was Michigan who hid in the Rose Bowl and did not play in the Bowl Alliance National Championship game and did hot take home the crystal football. At least a deserving Nebraska team took home the crystal football.Something Michigan did not deserve because they hid in the Rose Bowl and did not play Nebraska.
That was the day I started watching NCAA Football. They may not be as good as in 1997, but they are my favorite team in my book. Always looking forward to their games
My dad was born in 1948, the last year before 97 when Michigan won a NC. After U of M beat OSU my dad made his donation to th alumni association and bought tickets to the Rose Bowl. We went and didn't even really enjoy it we were so nervous. We were just relieved they won.
There's no way this team could beat the 1995 & 1996 Cornhusker team, the 1987, 2001 or 2002 Hurricane teams, the 2002 Buckeye team, as well as several others.
This was such a special time to b a wolverine and it couldnt hav came at a better time!! I still reminise on my life during that season! Will never forget the 97 Wolverines!! Go Blue for life!
Michigan's fault for not breaking the Rose Bowl Contract and hiding in the Rose Bowl. By the way FSU was the best team in the nation that year. Put more players in the NFL than Michigan
@MadMax™ Because FSU was the best team in the nation that year and Michigan with it's enormous nationwide fan base and not winning a national championship in 50 years received much more national publicity than they deserved. Michigan has always been overrated and did not deserve their CO-championship being they did not demand the overrated Rose Bowl let Michigan break their contract which would have allowed them to play in the Bowl Alliance National Championship game. Carr really let his players down by not demanding a national championship game with Nebraska.
I don't think so. I think it's a pretty low-scoring game that Michigan wins. Look what ASU did to Nebraska in 1996. And while ASU had a good defense that season (18 points per game), Michigan had an all-time great defense (9.5 points per game).
No! It wouldn't have been better. Didn't have the starpower hype except for Woodson against the Nebraska dynasty. USC-Texas was better because it had the starpower and they were the two best teams all season long. No one expected Michigan to have the year they did.
These comments really take me back to that time when I was a kid...Couldn't wait to watch them play and at that time didn't even understand I couldn't compete on that level, even as much as I wanted to lol!

I remember the Charles White fumble in the 1979 Rose Bowl and the field goal in Columbus in 1974. And the the outrageous decision in 1973 to send Ohio St to Rose Bowl instead of Michigan. So you have to excuse me if I shed no tears for Washington St in that last play.
I remember that push off and everyone in the stadium knew it was offensive pass interference but the ref didn't have the balls to do the right thing for whatever reason.

They certainly do love showing that Colorado hail mary pass don't they? How about showing the next year where the very same play was set up at home but got knocked down and they lost to Michigan at home, then in 1997 when their best highlight was Rick Neuheisel yelling at his QB to "Be a f**king quarterback".. oh and they also managed to kick a field goal to prevent a shut out in their 3-27 loss. At least they scored as may points in Ann Arbor as Baylor the next week.
Had FSU been as popular as Michigan Dion Sanders would have been considered a better athlete than Woodson. Sanders played both pro baseball & football. Played in 2 world series and 3 Super Bowls. Woodson was no match for Dion Sanders.
@@nedstewart1 they didn't even play in the same decade.. Sanders graduated in 88 and didn't win the Heisman because he was primarily a kick/punt returner in college, not because nobody knew about FSU. Your comment is dumb
@@stevem6856 The fact still remains that Sanders was a 2 time pro athlete playing in the big leagues. He was a two-time All-American at cornerback. Sanders was the 1988 Thorpe Award winner as the nation's finest defensive back, Ran a 4.27 forty. Deion Sanders is considered by many to be the finest cover corner in the history of college football. Won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back as a senior in 1988, is considered by many to be the finest cover corner in the history of college football.Earning letters in track and field, baseball and football, Sanders is one of the greatest athletes in NCAA history. He earned All-America honors as a sprinter on FSU's 4X100 relay team and played in the College World Series as an outfielder on the baseball team. Florida State retired his #2 football number in 1995 Deion was drafted as a professional by both the Atlanta Falcons of the NFL and the New York Yankees in Major League Baseball. Sanders continued to play two sports earning him All-Pro honors with the Falcons and becoming a superstar in centerfield for the Braves. No way Woodson can match this.

Theirs no doubt that FSU placed more players in the NFL in the 97-98 season and the following 2 season than Michigan did. Theirs no doubt that the Rose Bowl was a johnny come lately joining the BCS. Michigan hid in the Rose Bowl in their co-championship season. FSU lost in the Swamp in the last minute to Florida & if it was not for that would have played in the Bowl Alliance national championship game against Nebraska.
