Rather impressive, to say the least, would be one reaction for so many future NFL stars on one team's roster. The '01 'Canes obviously finished the season undefeated, averaging 42 points per game while yielding only 9 points per contest. Miami set a school record beating opponents at a rate of 32 points per game and largest margin of victory over consecutive ranked teams (124-7). Wow?
wow...what a great organization! i wouldn't mind having a few of them on my fantasy team. it's all about the U!!!!
ReplyDeleteI try to forget those years. Alabama finished 3-8 in the previous season. With recent success from both schools, perhaps a meeting in a future BCS bowl...? Also, September 11 will be surrounded by NCAA football games for most of the day, featuring dual elite match ups of Miami at Ohio St and Alabama vs Penn St. Get ready, O&G!
