2008 Cap One Bowl: Michigan-41 Florida-35 (PART 2)

[123multitasker]

10:02 Priceless and best part of the game

[x20michigan]

start at 3:08. My favorite part. :)

[BigTheNoodlez]

Was this game in Florida too?

[BigTheNoodlez]

#1 Ohio state 12-0 before Title game. #2 Florida 11-1 before title game only loss to (#19) at time Auburn earlier in the year. #3 Michigan 11-1 Before title game only loss to (#1) Ohio State last week of the season so statistically they had the best loss... BUT it's not who you lose to it's when u lose lol. That is why we need a tournament of the top 8. Also why I think Michigan is so motivated in this game they feel they should have rematched for the title the year before

[BigTheNoodlez]

Flawed BCS system is why Michigan is so motivated in this game. Think about the year before when Michigan and Ohio State played #1 vs. #2 and the game was so good they stayed ranked the same. However the big ten has no Conference title game, but the SEC does so when #4 Florida beat #11 or 12 Arkansas in a blowout they moved up from #4 to #2 and played for the title crushing Ohio State, and Michigan Finished ranked #3 playing #8 USC imo unmotivated and losing 32-19.

[HailToTheVictor503]

I really thought this team could win a national title, but at least they ended the season beating a SEC team

[sandwhich14]

I tend to forget this game even happened guess what Florida won national championship next year so who gives a shit about bowl games

[MgoMuse]

Florida is lucky as shit that this game wasnt a blow out

[brad21dmb]

@TheWolverineTimes It did not make much sense to me either. What a way for Lloyd Carr to go out though.

[brad21dmb]

I was on my third tour in Iraq. I am an Ohio State fan, my roomate was a Florida fan. I can't tell you how good it felt to watch this game so those people (SEC fans) would finally shut the fuck up! This is the same team which Ohio State beat in Ann Arbor where Beanie wells scored both touchdowns and ran for 222 yards. To Michigan fans...I was pulling for you guys. :) GO BUCKS!

[wow5883]

Florida sucks because losing by six points definitely means that they are a bad football team.

[mr101AWESOME]

why isnt michigan ranked in this game

[footballgi14]

@mr101AWESOME maybe because we were 8-4 with 2 straight losses.

[YouTuber2006]

Urban Cryer got his that day.

[MgoMuse]

the last seconds of the video where tebow has the "what just happened" look on his face are priceless

[D1Champ08]

MICHIGAN BITCHES.... EAT IT SCC RETARDS.. GO GET AN EDUCATION

[zippy476]

@D1Champ08 SCC?

[mr101AWESOME]

@D1Champ08 "Eat it SCC retards.. go get an education" wow your making yourself look stupid

[stephen2152002]

Gee if it weren't for those two fumbles at goal, it wouldn't have looked so close.

[brad21dmb]

@stephen2152002 That's what I try to tell people about this game. I started running my mouth to SEC fans when Ohio St. beat Oregon in the Rose Bowl because we won by a 2 score game. Alot of these people are effing idiots! I live in Alabama, and half of the BAMA fans or AU fans can't point their school out on a map. WAR TIDE!

[hailtothevictorsUofM]

i love this vid...i think lloyd could still be our coach though...rodriguez better figure everything out soon

[DrOman5596]

3:07. Awesome hit, it was especially enjoyable to watch after all the trash people were talking about Michigan and the big ten. Take that Tebow! It was a great way to send out Llyod and this amazing class.

[SB20Champions]

You almost get emotional when you see Lloyd getting carried off the field. I wish Rich Rod brings us back to the good times again.

[bhorvath5270]

I respect the Gators, they always have speed all over the field. But even you Gator fans have to admit, it ended with coach Carr the right way! Gators will be back in a B.C.S championship game sooner than later, and so will Michigan!!!!!! Go Blue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[footballjava32]

in the bcs era, michigan has owned the sec.

5-1 in new year's bowl games against sec teams.

[cmomola]

ahhhh boy... its like night and day... Mich then and Mich now... can't wait till we are back,

ITS GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE....

great recap of that game!

[softshoes]

See, good things can happen when you don't go into that prevent defense crap.

Of course this was before Tebow found out he was Jesus.

[WolverineHistorian]

He had just won the Heisman, so he was already Jesus at this point.

The following year is when he upgraded to GOD...according to the media and Gator nation.

[MauricXe]

@WolverineHistorian The other funny thing is that 2 years later Tebow hasn't improved a lick. But yet somehow, he is drafted in the first round. Shame.

[soulflyx69]

@softshoes GOD bleeds Maize and Blue and jesus wears a #20 Mike Hart jersey every saturday!!

[thegov1020]

hey mr histoiran was this tebow's first bowl loss

[ps2dude13]

10:02

Tebow gives him "THE LOOK"

[WolverinesOfMichigan]

@GTkennethxD lo u still lost

[BrenMcCloud]

you should have put mike hart's expression after florida scored on the second fumble in this video. he knew after that there was no way he was gonna let florida win that game!

GO BLUE!!

[engeo1993]

@ 3:58 when i was watching this game, i was like WTF?? GO BLUE!

[wwefan9733]

ha ha ha fuck flordia

[ps2dude13]

Florida Gators suck

[VictorsValiant]

Best part of this game at (1:02), #51 Spikes calls out Mike Hart just before the snap...then Hart drills Spikes (1:06) just before he walks in for the TD. Spikes talkin smack and gets put on his rear; priceless.

[Smith4Heisman]

Nothing better than seeing that sack of shit Urban Meyer get beat down by a Big Ten Team...

SEC weak shit.

[martinlutherobama08]

could have easily been 55-13 michigan

[weswg]

Let me get this straight UF had the ball in the end and could have won it yet you say it could have been 55-13, Thanks for giving me a good laugh.

[jbanco]

yea...did you forget that Hart fumbled the ball twice at the goal line...thus making the score 55...learn to add friend.

[wolverinefan24]

hes exagerating a little bit, but what he is trying to say is that michigans mike hart (who never fumbles) fumbled twice on the goal-line. it could have been a much bigger win

[Amaizenblue86]

Chills... Sending Lloyd off the right way

Seeing us take that final knee was great. One of the greatest performances in Michigan history.

Let's turn things around! Less than 3 weeks left!

Go Blue!

[Amaizenblue86]

We could have won this game by over 3 touchdowns. Hart fumbled twice near the endzone.

This Michigan team would have been killer if they stayed healthy.

[Amaizenblue86]

1:04

Get out of Hart's way... Spikes?! Got trucked.

[kazbo1]

I still can't believe that we won this game. Florida should have mopped the floor with us. Easily one of the biggest upsets of the Carr era. The only one bigger is the victory over Ohio State in 1996.

[jusprazem]

you aint lying about that but florida had a young and inexperienced defense and terrible offensive pass protection on the offensive line.

[bluescreen06]

Thanks Florida, that was a great game, I love those high scoring games. It was so nice to be able to carry Lloyd carr off the field! He deserved it!

[jenahady]

OWNED!!!!!!!!!!!

[zoltanroolz]

UM owns the SEC

[patsrule1112]

6:58

[zackcoolman28]

02:17

[Rza06]

as a buckeye fan i was glad to see llyod Carr go out on a good note rich rod wont be as half as good as he was

[rediculousrapper]

Ron english turned this defense into a gang of beasts in just one season. Letting him go and him goin to easter was an absolutely huge loss.

[agoo7581]

It was too bad that a tamper tantrun in the front office and the alumni got rid of a legend as if a coach has never lpst a game before.

[Picdas]

haha at 9:29

[stokie510wego]

Those are Tebows adopted kids lol

[travismpsu12]

or 10:04

[DrOman5596]

I like how you ended this edit with tebow's reaction!

[benjimichigan]

Why is Arrington so bad on Madden games? On Madden 2010 hes rated 45! based on this game i'd give him 80-90

[AnitaDoobie]

Arrington graduated that year, therefore he is not on the team anymore, obviously, it must be another player.

[Amaizenblue86]

45!? ARE YOU SERIOUS!!??

[VertighoMadden]

This is a perfect example of why Tebow will fail as a QB in the NFL. When he is under pressure, he chokes. He doesn't have the accuracy or "smarts" to play QB in the NFL. He might last a few games, and then he'd be applying for a job at a desk, because he'd be bruised and battered, and no team would want him. Plus, part of the reason he's been so successful is because he's surrounded with 4.3 speed. Take that away, and it adds to the problem. Sorry Tebow, but college is as far as you will go.

[ProZack91488]

best bowl game of the season.

[headstrong420]

you beat ohio cuz u hurt ted ginn he was ohios team u dont hurt him florida woulda got smacked around and you have tebow and harvin and others yet ur making excuses sad

[stokie510wego]

Ginn hurt himself celebrating with his teammates after his opening KR TD

[hogeboon19]

Hey Florida is awesome. This win just makes Michigan look good and shows that Ohio State is the one with the trouble against the SEC.

[drefan20]

i did not expect us to win this game at all i ended up going to work like an hour and a half late cause if mich won there was no way way i was missing it.

[GamblerLV]

This game had nothing to do with "win 1 for Lloyd" Michigan had Chad Henne, Super Mario, AA, Mike Hart and Jake Long, along with other ggood players and they were finally healthy. I never had any doubts Michigan would win this game..

[thegov1020]

mr hstorian long time no comment i rember i was listeing to a florida radio show i love listening to they gave me so much junk and the day after i said to em he who laugh last laughs loudest

[charger109]

Michigan = Senior class

who beat

Florida = Freshman and Sophmore class

Great validation!

At least Florida can beat Ohio St.

[hogeboon19]

Freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior. Doesn't matter. Don't make excuses. If there is not a good coach then it never matters. By the way Tebow won the Heisman and they were favored by a ton so it just shows that you are making pathetic excuses.

[spike4881]

Great spin. You work for the government?

[WolverineHistorian]

I think he does. I figured that SEC "speed" would be enough to handle a big slow Big 10 team, right?

Also, didn't Florida have Hesiman trophy winner Tim Tebow in this game? The same player that can cure cancer and walk on water?

[hogeboon19]

Thank God for smart people. GO BLUE!

[BrenMcCloud]

@WolverineHistorian And this was the same team that lost to Appy St.

God, beating Florida was awesome...

[nined5civicex]

I was disappointed when I searched for this video the other day and couldn't find your posting of it. Turns out, I just didn't look hard enough.

Thanks for posting this again.

I can't help but wonder how the 2008 season would have turned out had we stuck with this version of the spread, rather than fully committing to the RR version.

I understand his reason for doing so, but still leaves me wondering "what if?"

[TheFeedback]

My favorite Michigan game of these past 5 seasons.

[cowsandmonkeys1]

9:54 one of the best moments in Michigan history

[Hossflex]

Too bad Michigan didn't play like this all year long. The team that played the Capital One bowl would have beaten everyone on the schedule except Oregon. And that's only cause, in my opinion, Dennis Dixon was the best player in the country till he got hurt. At least the seniors got a bowl win

[maizenblueforever]

Arrington was simply unreal this game, I miss those wolverines hopefully they play like this in 09.

[hogeboon19]

They will. Oh yeah if Hart doesn't fumble Michigan obliterates Florida.

[NoRulesInNam]

no doubt. Would've beaten them by 14+ probably.

[hogeboon19]

Oh yeah for sure.

[DMichiganWol21]

This is what could have been all season. I love Lloyd, but I think football just passed him by

[rwolfpack]

Chad Henne was Unreal in this game. He had a lot of great games during his 4 yrs. but he saved his best for last....man, this O could have done some serious dammage this yr. had they ran that spread all yr.

[seahawks134]

man i really missed these wolverines last year hopefully theyll play like this in 09

[Poole1Dan]

first comment. Go Blue!

[Poole1Dan]

BTW, 6:06-6:45 is the greatest catch made by a Wolverine since Carters game winner against Indiana in 79. It may not be the most clutch catch, but it was more spectacular then Hayes against Virginia. Its better Woodson against Michigan state. its better then Terrell against Wisconsin. Its better then Howard against Notre Dame. Its better then anything else in U-M history over the last 3 decades.

[bbj0322]

100% agree

[Poole1Dan]

Thanks man. BTW, did you notice the 2 thumbs down i got for saying Arringtons catch was the best? Jesus. Does everyone have to hate on Arrington?

[AnitaDoobie]

I dunno, I wouldn't say the best, but I would say that it definitely is tied with those, Howard's against Norte Dame is just amazing, and Woodson's was equally as incredable, but you are right, definitely one of the best recently.

[Poole1Dan]

fair enough. go blue!
