Vince was a god in the NCAA for those two years. As a Texas fan, those we the easiest two years of life. You knew than VY could do anything he wanted to, and that you were going to win because he was on the field.
And to think, his own OC, Gene Davis , and his head coach Mack Brown would confess in the National Championship game DVD that they held Vince back for a year and a half: "Once we let him go, we started winning." THAT is one more reason to heap criticism on both of those so-called coaches: can't recognize what they had.
Also the Michigan defense was sooooo slow lol. Absurd. Plus Michigan obviously should have tried to bleed the clock for a last second field goal. Maybe they did try that and the highlights don’t show it?? Idk
Did it cause a lingering hate for Vince ? I feel like Vince beating usc the way he did is what led to his nfl career being cut short and destroyed by the media and others . Like they never got over what he did to usc
As a Michigan fan, don't know how this got into my feed. I'm still having nightmares about Vince running all over us at the end. He carried Texas on his back for that victory 😅
Nostalgic side note, don't you just miss Keith Jackson calling football games? Especially Michigan games. His signature tenor bought a dynamic to the narration that has never been replaced... he is missed Now, as a die-hard tried and true Wolverine, all I can say is Michigan boys, never play close enough where a field goal can decide the outcome of the game - now let's go take it to Bama!!
Keith Jackson was indeed one of several Real Men Among Boy Announcers. Still is... listening to his descriptions makes me shake my head - I hope young folks can find an announcer of their own to enjoy.
I got a ticket for 25.00 from a guy selling tickets to get a seat. This was a great game. Vince Young led the final drive for winning field goal. I had always wanted to see the Longhorn band I. Person and the football team. What a memorable moment
It was the first game ever between these two iconic programs and it was a classic iconic game in an iconic hope game overshadowed by next years rose bowl for obvious reasons. But I will always remember how great this game was.
@@WeFreestyleForever They said that in the rose bowl all those years ago. And I don't see Texas playing michigan, the script is set for a rematch between the Horns and bama.
Yeah tough loss for Michigan fans, but it was a great game to say the least and a huge coming out party for Vince Young who go onto fame and glory the following season.
I actually watched this game with my grandparents, and this is one of the best games I've ever seen! Both teams put up a great fight, but Texas came out on top in their first-ever Rose Bowl.
What a painful loss for TCUN! I love it watching this even after 19 years ... A thousand even! Great job, Vince Young & Co. Hard to win when you're not cheating, Xichigan. #scum #tainted #vacate #2023 🔨🫐🫐🫐😭🤣
He actually got a finger or two on it but not enough, can't remember who but remember post game interviews that's what he said. It was a fairly short kick and barely made it over. Great game though.
I absolutely forgot this game ever even existed. Probably blocked it out since I’m a huge M fan ..but now looking back , what a good game . B Edward a and Steve Breastin we’re doing everything they could do to win thsi game . But Vince Young was .. a DAWG. Sheesh
Michigan by all acounts should have won this game. They won the field position battle, they won the turnover battle, and Texas couldn't guard Edwards. But VY, put this team on his back and won this game with sheer will. Amazing.
Historically Michigan's defense always struggled with multi purpose quarterbacks like Vince Young. Especially the likes of Ricky Foggy of Minnesota, Rodney Peete of USC, Warren Moon of Washington, Troy Smith of OSU, and Terrelle Pryor of OSU. Michigan was offered to the open date the 2000 season in the kickoff classic versus Virginia Tech and Michael Vick.......Michigan politely declined the offer for obvious reasons. Instead USC played Penn State.
Being a Michigan fan. Like Michigan, Texas fans have class. Great atmosphere for a near top 5 matchup. Despite the disappointing finish, was a game I will always remember fondly anyway.
@@timoteo8024 Michigan fans were the most pleasant and friendly opposing fans I’ve ever been around. My experience the next fall in Columbus was…not the same.
@@jasonrogers6454 No doubt there! Most fans are like Michigan fans in the Big except for the "other" St. There are in delusional lala land pretty much all the time. They have forgotten what its really like being a fan of a team named after a nut. Terrifying mascot for sure. Lol, so lame, yet they all believe its the coolest damn team name/mascot. A nut with legs and eyes. They forget their true place is in Michigan's rearview just like ND as well. Including head to head, nit even close. They forget the mid-late eighties and the 90's completely. Just ask Chris Spielman how many gold pants he earned while at the other state? Answerr is ZERO. Zero times he beat Michigan. Ask good ol John Cooper what his record in the 80'-90's vs Michigan was. 2-12-1. In fact they still believe they are the best team and thing in college football. Completely. And it has turned them bitter to see tyat their team they want to claim is so great, is in fact fraudulent and living on borrowed time already. Now that the scales have bern convincingly turned and the fright of what is going to happen to them again in Ann Arbor has these fans and quite frankly ryan day and the whole team, scarred to flipping death of what awaits them in late November in Michigan. Its already over and they all know it they just do nt want to believe ut and their bitter about becoming a second rate team especially with Oregon and Washington and USC coming too, and To start the New Bigger League Michigan will go into it, especially if jj comes back, as the favorite and Ohio St just isn't. And that hat that Michigan has earned it by outclassing them in every single way. Those folks literally think the Big is them only, its kinda sas. But that is just who those people choose to be, but its easy to dislike such a lame fanbase, delusional too boit. Antway ✌️
USC was playing in the Orange Bowl for the championship, and Texas and Utah were ranked higher than California in BCS, so the Rose Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl had at large pics Rose Bowl got Texas and Utah went to the Fiesta Bowl
People like to talk about how great 05 Texas was but they don’t like to talk about how they were losing to usc 38-26 because of Pete carols mistakes usc lost. It is only the greatest national championship game because Texas came back and won. But I blame Pete just like they blamed him for the Seahawks loss in the 2nd straight SB
Oh so you just can't admit that Texas was the better team. So you just place blame on everything else but the team playing bad. Just remember that The Horns beat y'all. Lol what a bitch you are for trying to blame the loss on someone else.
@Terrillist Reality The Rose and Fiesta Bowl both had at large picks Rose got first pick giving the highest ranked team to the Rose Bowl and Utah to the Fiesta CAL just got screwed over by BCS rankings
This game was unreal and somehow lost in time after what went on one year later …
Great point. I hate that the playoff has made bowl games outside the top 4 mean nothing to me.
That's what im saying. With the 12 team playoff coming, I foresee "bowl games" to be a thing of the past in about 10 years.@@chrisa6592

Vince Young was special.

We didn't really believe until the Oklahoma state game halfway through his sophomore year.

@@richardtibbitts3841 in your opinion
the field position Steve breston was giving Michigan was INSANE!
Yep Texas had to address that in the offseason
Vince Young was a man amongst boys out there.

It was crazy how good Vince Young was

@@stephensybert3237slow because Vince fast
The crazy thing about Young to me is he always looked like he was running in slow motion
Vince is the greatest player in Rose Bowl history
Hookem. This one brought back a lot of good memories.
Keith Jackson as Announcer.. The Goat.
Vince Young was THAT GUY.
How he never won the Heisman is a travesty.
but he beat two Heisman winners in a natty game......I mean......legendary.
He's one of those players that didn't need to win to get recognized as a great
They obviously got it wrong. Doesn’t matter though, he’s a legend.
@@fadedlobohe beat 3 Heisman winners in the same season. Troy Smith, Leinart, and Bush. Meanwhile Reggie Bush was cruising in the easy PAC-10
nobody floats down the field like VY
13:43 Michael Phelps. No one knew that random fan would become the greatest olympian of all time
How did you know
/see that? Great catch!!
Phelps trained and took classes in Ann Arbor throughout his career and has been around the university ever since.
@@pinchevulpes He’s a Michigan alum and football fan. Pretty crazy to see him there just a few years before he was winning gold medals
I thought he won in Athens in 04
He is not random, he attended Michigan.
Steve Breaston and Vince Young, big stars.
Bro these blocks by Texas when Vince starts running are crazy good
Crazy good. You talk English, son?
Vince owns the Rose Bowl!
2023 Bama fans think Jalen Milroe is like Vince Young
As a Michigan fan, don't know how this got into my feed. I'm still having nightmares about Vince running all over us at the end. He carried Texas on his back for that victory 😅
Lloyd shoulda went for it on 4th and short to ice the game rather than kicked the field goal
Texas vs Michigan could be a rematch
Your EXACT comments apply to the USC game the following year. 🙂
I was there at the 30 yard line 3 rows up behind the Texas bench. Best game experience!
Imagine if VY wasn't stuck with Jeff Fisher his entire NFL career.
Steve Breaston ran like a deer.
I remember watching this - amazing game but heartbreaking loss as a Michigan fan.

There's a reason why I always play as Texas in NCAA Football 06. And it's name is "Vince Young".
VY one of the best CFB players of all time
its a damn shame how Romance Taylor wrecked his whole career. So much going for him in his future and he threw it all away with poor choices.
It was a travesty Bush won the Heisman over VY... especially when he had to give it back, should've went straight to Vince
One of the last New Years I couldn’t legally drink. Being a MICHIGAN MAN it became very necessary
Maybe a guy wearing CMU gear in a pair of spy Ray-Bans might have helped ... 🤣
Vince Young and Cam Newton.... greatest College QBs ever.
Tim Tebow Joe Montana Joe Burrow?
Pat White and Kellen Moore
@@ColtsprodzsJoe Burrow had the best QB season ever but not the best QB...dude had one year where he did something huge
Just saw someone say Vince Young was the best QB ever to *NOT* win the Heisman. I'd say that's pretty accurate.
Cam Newton had 1 season. Where as Vince had at least 2 years of domination plus carrying 2 rose bowl wins.
The tackling was horrible by Michigan. And they looked so slow 🤦🏾♂️
Agreed, but it's not like USC had any better luck the following year.
Steve Breaston... God damn OG

I was at this game, 50yd line row 4. It was called the M Zone with a bunch of old ass Michigan fans. I was wearing a VY jersey. They were so pissed.
That game winning field goal went between the Michigan player's helmet and raised arm. I shit you not.
He actually got a finger or two on it but not enough, can't remember who but remember post game interviews that's what he said. It was a fairly short kick and barely made it over. Great game though.

Great game. All timer.
This game should have been Breaston and Edwards vs. Vince Young.
Anyine notice michael phelps in the crowd? At 13:43 ?

For as exciting as the Texas/Michigan Rose Bowl was........... it's hard to not think about the way Cal got snubbed

One of my favorite Michigan teams
Michael Phelps at 13:43 haha so awesome
Imagine having Braylon Edwards on this year’s team. Man…
Might be able to beat Georgia or bama If that was the case
Imagine if Texas didn't swipe Xavier Worthy from y'all.......
Great Quality!
Especially all the sniffling in the background
These 2 may have a chance to meet in another championship game
Michigan outplayed Texas but the only problem is they didn't have an answer for VY and they squandered great field position by settling for FGs.
You'll never see a highlight video to match these crazy great plays. Expletive zone.
I was born in 95. How the hell did we lose this game with so many weapons.

Good ol' Lllllllloyd strikes again. Although his bowl record was much better than weird Jimmy's.
Michigan plays calling at the end did them in. They should of iced this game two drives before the end.
Does michigan ever win a bowl game!? Lol
Beat Florida in the Capital One Bowl in 2008
