@@tybo_g37s Na'ah...larger pads. In the NFL and college, they wore larger pads. Game is faster across the board now, so the pads have gotten a lot smaller.
Is it me or did the Rocket 🚀ismail dropped that damn ball be for he crossed the goal line I said this 30 years ago!! I’ll say it today that was not a touchdown & im a Notre Damn fan but right is right & wrong is wrong….. smh 🤦🏾♂️
Do you have any of these games for a potential future No Huddle upload: 2004 Cotton Bowl (Oklahoma State/Ole Miss) 2003 Cotton Bowl (LSU/Texas) 2001 Holiday Bowl (Texas/Washington) 2001 Fiesta Bowl (Oregon State/Notre Dame)
It truly had more to do with the shift from Independence to conferences. Notre Dame lost the Miami (Big East) and Penn State (Big Ten) rivalries due to scheduling conflicts far more than politics/posturing. Those two things simply make for a better story....
This was the game where I knew Rick Meier would be a bust. His foot work, arm strength, and decision making against a top quality opponent was average at best.
@@matthewcarey3148 Powlus too! His injury in 1993 allowed McDougal to assume the starter role without much competition. No way ND competes for the 1993 title/beats Florida State with Powlus at QB. He held them back in 1995 and 1996 too. The 1995 team was especially loaded with talent but the offense/team lacked that extra gear. Powlus did nothing against Northwestern and Ohio State (0 TDs combined, sub 250 yards passing in both games) that year. Krug probably as well or better against Florida State in the Orange Bowl than Powlus would have. That 1995 should have battled with Florida, Florida State, Colorado, Kansas State etc. for the right to play Nebraska for the title.
Ridiculous that Rocket Ismail lost the Heisman to Ty Detmer lol.
Along with George Rogers over Hugh Green and Jason White over Larry Fitzgerald, one of the biggest snubs in college football history
@@cityofchamps66 don't forget Paul Hornung over Jim Brown in 1956
Eric “Sleeping with” Bieniemy deserved it over both
Ismail had only 6 touchdowns that year. 6!
@@chrisuncleahmadWhat?? More fumbles than touchdowns and Bieniemy had a lot of touchdowns
Ty Detmer won that Heisman the first game of the season when BYU upset Miami
best era of college football, so much faster and stronger than todays players
No
@@shawnpatton3260 stay mad bro, lol
Is it just me or do these guys look bigger faster and without a dought meaner than players today
roids
Grown men

Just you
Facemasks too. You see a lot of offensive linemen wearing 2-bar these days, but in this game some of the running backs are wearing full cages
Beating Miami when they were good was very satisfying. It's not same now.
Damn Conley’s fumble was huge…
As was Culver’s on the first play and Rickie Watters’ later…so?
I don’t care what ANYONE says, Rocket Ishmael was the greatest player to ever wear a Notre Dame uniform.
Don't forget about mr. Touchdown. Tim brown.
@@toddcannon918 Alan Page, Russell Browner and the Bus is up there too.
In my lifetime it would be Joe Montana. But The Rocket is right there also.
@@allengreene9954And Rudy Reutigger
I agree. Most exciting in college. Robbed of the Heisman
The Final Encounter

Tim brown. Might have something to say about that. Ijs.
37:20...fantastic play call, set up by the previous calls.
That offside hurt UM early giving that 3pt
Horse collar tackle clinic.
Culver wow
Miami has always envied ND

I have the 2001 Fiesta. The others I can take off yt, except the 2003 cotton (unless I missed it somewhere).
@@steelbuck6777 you have any of the RG3 Heisman year? Been looking across yt but can’t seem to find much
So many turnovers for Miami
If UM go up 14-3 we win the game
If a frog had wings...
There only one problem, the canes done shit in the second half
If my Aunt had balls she would be my Uncle. Miami got beat down by the Irish.
But, ya didn't. And Jimmy has a small Johnson!! 😅 fuck Jimmy Johnson and Dennis Erikson! 2 of the biggest cheaters in NCAA history!
ND punked out of the series. Took away alot of fun for both fanbases

@@tuowl0564. Its a shame. Plus ND and Michigan and won’t play for another decade.
Yeah, punked out with a win.
The series wouldn’t mean much with the current state of Miami FB.
at 10:11 : - )
I've never seen another player like him.
“It’s over!”
This was the game where I knew Rick Meier would be a bust. His foot work, arm strength, and decision making against a top quality opponent was average at best.
Not his best day but he scrambled well and played just well enough to win.
Mirer was an odd choice for holtz. Didn’t really fit his offense.
I remember all the hype he had coming out of high school, they said he was gonna win 2 Heisman trophies

@@lorenzoyoung698 That was Powlus. Beano Cooke famously said that. He doubled down after his first game against Northwestern in 1994 iirc.
