The 2003 Fiesta Bowl’s climactic moment deserves a deep rewind | Ohio State vs Miami 

Maurice Clarett...making the greatest strip in OSU history.

Crazy how one game can flip an entire program or organization. This game pushed Ohio State and Miami in different directions for the past 15 years. Similar to the 2001 AFC championship game between New England and Oakland. One play, one game, transformed the whole landscape of the sport forever.

This game has multiple 30 for 30's centered around it

Sean taylor....jeez, even now that name makes me sad, RIP. I know this is cheesy but your legacy will always be remembered.

Still my favorite college football game I ever watched. The amount of NFL players on the field is ridiculous.

Imagine how physically taxing it is to start at wide receiver and cornerback on a team as good as Ohio State, endurance of champions

thank you for pausing that replay before the part where his knee turns inside-out

I watched this in Columbus when I was in High School. One memory I will always have is once the broadcast of the game was over, the channel cut back to the local news desk, and ABC6's main sports guy puffing away on a victory cigar.

Damn those Miami teams were STACKED

I was there. Front row 30 yard line. Will never forget it. Greatest game I've ever seen live in any sport in my entire life.

Hearing all these names makes me nostalgic as hell. These were the guys who would become the notable NFL players of my childhood.

I'm from an FSU family, but I will gladly take Miami being relevant again over Alabama.

Do a rewinder on the Music City Miracle

I will never forget this season. I went to every home game this year. When we beat the team up north the city exploded. What a year.

RIP Sean Taylor you will be miss bro

As a newer fan I really appreciate the way you title and edit your videos to be spoiler free. It's almost as good as witnessing it live.

Santonio Holmes catch at the end of Super Bowl XLIII would make a great rewinder

I remember watching this as it happened and I will never forget McGahee's knee bending backwards. The strange part is if you see it from one angle it, it looks like he'll be fine. From the other, it's easy to think he'll never play football again.

My dad has a robbery in the desert shirt

You guys should do Villanova’s National Championship Clutching Buzzer beater from 2016

Great job on this. The only thing I felt should have been added, was Ohio State's last offensive play in regulation. Krenzel connected with Gamble on a 3rd down where he was not only held several times during the play, but the catch was clearly in bounds. But the refs called him out of bounds and missed the obvious holding going on. In this day of replay, that gets over turned and Ohio State kneels it three times and the game is over before it ever gets to OT.

This was no doubt one of the greatest college football games i have ever seen Buckeyes defense was ridiculous in this game seeing that everyone thought Miami high flying offense would destroy them. Never been so hyped after a college football game than this one

This was without a doubt the greatest game I’ve ever watched. As a Buckeye fan it was an emotional roller coaster and I nearly had a panic attack ab 27 times.

A U fan and that make me sad every time I watch it.

Oh my second year as a Miami fan as a kid. After the 2001 run made me a fan, this game and the following 3 years made me die inside.

Today is the 20-year anniversary of the double overtime thriller in the Fiesta Bowl between Ohio State and Miami (FL).

You do a nice job on these videos. The back stories really set up the moment. This video needed the missed holding call on Miami with 3 minutes left in regulation. Please keep them coming!

WE LIKE SPORTS AND WE DON'T CARE WHO KNOWS

If I'm not mistaken, Frank Gore was supposed to be the full-time starter but had a bad ACL injury during the offseason as he was pegged to replace Portis. Therefore, McGahee became the full-time starter and thus, Payton was actually the 3rd stringer.

There’s so many college football rewinds, which don’t get me wrong isn’t a problem I love these videos no matter the sport, but there’s so many iconic moments in hockey that, if dissected and broken down to bare components, would show the true beauty of the sport. Jordan Eberle’s game tying goal with seconds left against Russia in the 2009 WJC semifinals, Marc Andre Fleury’s save in game 7 of the 09’ cup final, the Bruins comeback against the Leafs in game 7 of the 2013 ECQ, the 2001 Colorado Avalanche winning the Stanley cup where Ray Bourque got his first ring in his last season, these are all iconic stories and moments that have shaped the game itself, and absolutely deserve their spot on a rewind episode.

The beginning of the end for Miami's dynasty

Y’all mad me cry watching this! I remember this like yesterday 💯

Cody Parkey's missed kick in the 2019 Bears-Eagles wild card game deserves a deep rewind.

I was in second grade and it still remains my favorite game I have ever seen.

Damn good break down of this historic game.

Been binging this series for a week now. This is some of the absolute best content for sports on RU-vid. Can we get a Rewinder of the 1999 NFC Championship? Falcons-Vikings, Gary Anderson?

Please do the 2005 Champions League final, it would be an amazing episode, thanks!

So this probably won’t get noticed but Alec Martinez’s Cup winning goal in double OT for the Kings in ‘14 needs a deep rewind. Considering that the Kings had to come back from down 3-0 to San Jose in the first round and had to win 3 straight road game 7’s to even be in that Stanley Cup final. It deserves a rewind

This was one of those games i lived through as a ten year old. This video gave me goosebumps.

THANKS FOR BRINGING UP OLD WOUNDS

I watched this game. Miami can gripe all they want. Game should have never went to OT. Gamble was held on a 3rd down and still caught the pass in bounds w 2 to go in regulation. Not called. Ohio State could have run the clock to nill. Every game in history has the Ref element. Ohio State won this game. Any rate one of the, if not the best game in CFB history. Both teams as it turned out were stacked w NFL talent.

Kellen Winslow Jr... I remeber him as the guy who crashed a crotch rocket and injured himself while failing his pro career away in Cleveland.

The 2001 GMAC Bowl between Marshall and ECU, Marshall comes back from 30 points to win it in double OT 63-61. It is also the first game between the two teams since the 1970 plane crash.

It is insane how stacked the 2001 and 2002 Miami Hurricanes were with future NFL talent: Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee,, Najeh Davenport, Andre Johnson, Sean Taylor, Bryant McGinnie, Antrel Rolle, Jonathan Vilma, Jeremy Shockey, D.J. Williams, Vernon Carey, possible hall of famer Vince Wilfork, and future hall of famers Ed Reed and Frank Gore. Just insane.

Think about this, earlier in the year, Frank Gore had gotten hurt......that night, Miami could have had a backfield of Willis McGahee and Frank Gore!

It’s been 16 years and Miami’s still salty

Why did I watch this. I new the outcome, and knew it would make me sad. But I still watched it, and now I'm sad

Please don’t ever stop making these

Chris Gamble and Mike Doss were beasts. So was pretty much everyone playing for Miami, but as a young Buckeye fan, those guys were legendary.

please do superbowl 34 rams vs titans "one yard short"

Didn’t mention the call near the end of regulation that would of sealed the win against Ohio State. They missed a catch by Gamble and also missed a clear defensive holding. Either would have ended the game. Idk how you don’t mention that

McGahee was never the same after that injury. Its also sad what happened to Sean Taylor. 2 amazing guys with amazing talent whose lives or career were cut short. This game brings back a lot of memories.

I would have thought a good review would also show the missed pass interference call for Jenkins. Had it been called, Ohio State probably wins in regulation. The camera clearly showed him having his jersey pulled not once, but twice on that play. I always thought the later pass interference against Miami was a make-up call. What a year, all Tressel had to do was get across the 50, and let the Mike Nugent put up 3.

You have to do Malcom butlers pick in Super Bowl 49.

I wasn't rooting for either team, but it was one of the best football games I'd ever seen.

Watch Payton move to the left side on 4th down. I've read his assignment was to pass block right. This blown assignment made it pretty simple for the blitzing Cie Grant to blow up the play.

The reason people feel the call was dishonest was how late the offical called it and how bad it was. Miami Hurricanes were 1 of the most talented teams in college football history ! Period.

8:27 I love how this is almost reduced to a footnote, when many MANY people remember the late late flag more than anything else in the game, just because of how glaringly... unusual it was. For some of us Ohioans, that really tainted things.

Miami should have never let this game be so close.

I was born on this day!!! Go Buckeyes

DO a rewind for the Cal Stanford "The Play" from 1982

Do a rewind on the 2007 giants vs patriots

This may be obscure in terms of big name programs, but maybe do a rewind of the Duke vs. UNC 2012 FOOTBALL game that Duke won on a last second touchdown to Jamison Crowder (former Redskins now Jets receiver). After going through 18 years of absolute futility in football, that was the game that made Duke bowl eligible again in a sense completing the resurrection of the program by David Cutcliffe.

Everyone forgets that game would have been over before overtime if replay reviews had been a thing in 02. Chris Gamble caught a pass on third down and his feet were clearly in bounds, but it was ruled incomplete. Ohio State has to punt, and the game ends up in overtime. If the correct call was made, all Krenzel had to do was kneel out the remaining clock and the game was over, Miami only had one timeout with 2:20 left in the game and down 3 points.

Rewinder 2017 National Championship- Watson to Renfrow

There was no pass interference. That call was a sham

By the way, check out that terrible missed holding on the RT on the play where Magahee was hurt ... he just grabs the OSU DE's collar and holds him which doesn't allow him to get to the QB or get his hands up in the way of the little pass to Magahee, which he was definitely in position to do despite the blatant holding. This was a physical game on both sides, so I get this not being called, in fact, it just illustrates the kind of physical game that it was and how the refs had to let some things go on both sides like this. Made for an incredible game to watch.

One of the greatest games in history. End of one dynasty and the start of another

How did you not do the LSU vs Iowa Hail Mary in the 2005 Capital one bowl. That was a much better walk off play

Love your deep rewind videos. For this one, though, you ignored a key play that would have added even more drama to your buildup. 2:30 left in regulation, OSU up 17-14, 3rd & 6 from their own 32. They barely got the snap off as the play clock hit :00, then Gamble makes a catch past the 1st down marker that is ruled out of bounds (no replay review in 2003) despite being blatantly held TWICE (no flag). Meanwhile, QB Krenzel was mercilessly thrown to the ground well after the pass was thrown (no flag). If any of the penalties are called (2 holding or roughing the passer) or if Gamble is ruled in bounds, OSU gets a 1st down with 2:18 left and Miami out of time outs. Game over! There would never have been a punt for Roscoe Parrish to return, no game tying field goal, no OT's, no controversial PI. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-i1xlg3SWDsk.html

One of the best games I've ever seen

Everyone remembers Madden 04 for Michael Vick, but if you import the NCAA 04 draft class, Maurice Clarett comes in as Madden's first and only 90+OVR rookie.

Do John Stocktons buzzer beater please that sent the Utah Jazz to the finals!!

Do Stephen Bonnar vs forest griffin TUF finale season 1 !

I think this game helped explode college football. The sport was on a rocket ship after this.

On OSU's last drive of regulation with 2:18 on the clock , Chris Gamble was absolutely mugged by Kelly Jennings on an out route. The holding call and automatic first would have allowed OSU to run up the middle, burn Miami's last timeout and if they had to punt, get them the ball back with less than :30 left. That often gets left out of the lore of this game

This was a travesty against Miami. This ended a generation!

michael chang french open win

2020 fixing to be the year again!

This game should have been over after the incompletion on 4th & 3...but alas...the phantom penalty. Still a classic nonetheless

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Sir Donald Bradman please.

I think miami got a bad call for pass interference

Love these videos! Just discovered this channel and love recapping old sports moments. Could you do a rewind of the Super Bowl between the Patriots and Seahawks next? That whole moment needs a deep dive. Keep up the great work!

You guys should do Nate Eovaldi vs. Max Muncy, for Nate’s valiant effort for Game 3 of the 2018 World Series!!

Iam not a Miami fan but I think 🤔 they got screwed in this game

Hey PLEASE do a rewind on 2011 World Series Game 6

For every PI on OSU, an angel grows it wings

2005 Champion's league final!!! I won't give up!

You should do the underarm bowling incident of 1982

I'm not even a Miami fan but they got robbed I get them credit for not kicking that officials ass after the game he should have never officiated again

You want to talk about a moment in sports history that was made for a series like this? Right here.

Hell yes Finally!

Those Miami teams would wipe the floor with these Bama teams...

Bs ending man, Miami total deserved to win, there was no PI

Do a rewind on the final play of the 2003 Vikings @ Cardinals game. I think it's easy to forget what that game meant for the team that started 6-0 and missed the playoffs at 9-7.

You guys should do a rewind of the Mens 4x100 freestyle relay at the 2008 Olympics, or any Michael Phelps race for that matter!

That was no Pass Interference!

I remember seeing that game.. someone had to call the police, becsuse that was robbery.

You should a Rewind on the Euro 2016. How Portugal didn't win a single game in regular time, how France were defeated in their own stadium, how Ronaldo got injured in the final, and Eder who was a statistically a very poor striker for Portugal, scored the winning goal.

This game propelled Ohio State from being a historic blue blood program into a modern one. Tressel would go on to serve some of the finest years in Ohio State history. By the time Meyer was handed the program, OSU was already a national powerhouse.
