That drive to tie up the game in the 4th quarter with a couple minutes to go by McCarthy is the biggest drive in modern Michigan football history. That was his moment.
It was McCarthy's moment along with the rest of the Michigan team who refused to get down in the tooth when the chips were down. Michigan managed to pull off what so many teams before them failed to do. I give them credit for that. I did not see it coming as I was convinced Bama would win that game but in the end Michigan did what they had to do to win. Grats to them for that.
I’m a Bama fan but I’ve always had a respect for Michigan Football and it’s legendary winning tradition,pageantry and culture…most iconic looking helmets in football! If I was born and raised in Michigan I’m sure I’d be more than likely wearing a blue Michigan cap 〽️🧢 …so I don’t hate Michigan. P.S. My best friend is from Ohio and he’s an incredibly obnoxious Buckeyes fan….i think I now hate OSU worse than Auburn because of him ! 😅
Everyone hates ohio, they make it so easy to do. A lot of people hate bama, but only because they've been so good for so long which just comes with the territory. People hate ohio because of the fans, and well, it's ohio, and nothing good comes out of ohio
I feel the same way about Alabama. There was a reason there was a nervous hush when teams were announced. Bama is always a handful and Saban is Saban. The Rose Bowl is a spectacular showcase and to me WAS the Natty. I will never forget this game and Alabama had a lot to do with that.
I'm a Michigan fan and my in-laws are 'Bama fans. It was the most emotional game of our lives. I can't speak for the rest of you, but this was the greatest football game my family had ever seen.
I've been a die hard michigan fan since I can remember, I don't hate Alabama, but this might be my most favorite game if all time. It was absolutely everything you could ask for in a football game from both sides.
lol - Always "we would have beaten the team we didn't play." Maybe Alabama should have scheduled Washington in November instead of a cupcake. The championship game was Michigan beating Washington.
@grondhero actually I'm a Michigan fan and I just thought that Bama played Michigan tougher but you're right alabama wasn't in the championship game and Washington was
I’d rather lose to a blue blood than some flash in the pan team. It was a good game, sloppy, but good. When they’re this close, both teams can look at a handful of plays that could have changed the outcome of this game. It’s great for the game of college football when teams like this play each other. Roll Tide Roll!!!!
You gumps are pathetic Year 1 of the deboer era when you are sitting at 4-4 going into week 9 😂😂😂😂 All you have is saban memories and stories to go on until they fade away Then you will again be nothing
I like how the 4th and 2 play is almost the same play as the 3rd and 2 play before, just they used motion to make it seem different, bama was confused with our motion the whole night
The Donovan throw to McCarthy who BARELY catches it and flings it to Wilson while getting destroyed is and forever will be the greatest play in it this Michigan football season. If that's a fumble, there's no guarantee McCarthy gets it. What a phenomenal play by them.
Michigan was at the crossroads. In order to grasp the brass ring they had to go thorough CFB Royalty. The big boys. As we have all seen throughout the Saban era of dominance getting a win over Bama is not an easy task. Michigan stepped up and took the ring right out of Bama's hand so-to-speak. I did not see this happening but it did. Grats to the Michigan Wolverines on their Natty.
Many of us would have loved to watch the rose bowl like every year before. But THANKS to espn not having it on abc I didn’t. ESPN can go pound sand. F espn
This game was a classic Alabama-Michigan game! All of the past games have been great. But this game meant more then any of the previous meetings. What a slug fest by two great teams!
I'm a Buckeye fan for life, but one of my buddies who's a huge Wolverines fan was texting back and forth with me during this game and I hesitate admitting this one, but I was really happy to see the Big Ten beat the SEC in the playoffs. Congratulations on winning a Natty and bringing respect back to the conference. I really hope we beat you guys this year!! GO BUCKS
Thanks for the comment, brother. Michigan fan here. My best buddy is a Buckeye. I'll always have that respect for him and the other good fans out there.
@MrSiah007 Michigan will struggle, I expect. I'm not confident in the QBs or WRs. OL has talent but they're unproven. BIG is OSUs to lose. If Howard can distribute the ball well, I'd be shocked if you guys aren't playing for the national title.
As a Michigan fan I'm glad Saban used up most of his black magic on the Georgia game and that last play against Auburn. Milroe is about to have a nice season - that dude is scary
Michigan made this game a lot closer than it should've been with their uncharacteristic mistakes. Normally, if a team makes mistakes like this against alabama, they don't win. Just shows how good this michigan team was.
This would be correct for most Alabama teams over Saban's 17 year tenure. This team was not in the Top 10 of his best, it would probably be 13th or 14th best. Michigan had a really good team but any of Saban's national title game participating teams would have steamrolled them especially with these mistakes.
@powcar1 I'd argue alabama's mistakes (bad snaps) were caused by Michigan's pass rush having their way all game, causing the center to rush the snaps in order to get his hands free faster. Whereas Michigan's mistakes (special teams) were unforced errors likely due to nerves.
@4:03 1st offensive series for Bama and the Michigan D-Line gets TWO monster sacks for huge losses. I don't think that Tide O-Line was ready for Michigan's front-end aggression and stunts. Maize-and-Blue defense was out for blood early often.
This was not a vintage line for Alabama, they were ranked 129 out of 133 teams in sacks given up so giving up sacks early was par for the course the entire season.
Nah! Saban a legend. The nil/ portal and ncaa bs made him retire. NCAA 1 step forward, 2 steps back. This upcoming season will be joke till they get equal spending in 25

Alabama Really Didn't Fight At All That's Why They Lost! Bad Coaching Job And Preparation By Saban! It Was Time For A New Coach! We Haven't Been Really Good For 3 Years.
I'm Very Much An Alabama Fan All My Life! Saban Was Great Most Of The Time But He Made Mistakes Like We All Do! I've Gone Back And Watched A Lot Of The Bama Games From His Tenure And In Some We Couldn't Stop Anybody. Example 2010 Auburn,Johnny Manzel,Michigan! Very Poorly Prepared Team In His Last Game Against Michigan. It's Not Just Me It's A Lot Of Our Fans Questioning His Coaching. This Is Last Response I Have About This!
@@JeffHorne-n5d it should be your last response because you sound like an idiot…you just said it yourself he made mistakes… just like you, me and everyone else in this world have…guess what? Deboer will make mistakes too
@@JeffHorne-n5d You really shouldn't post anymore, do us all a favor. Alabama fans just witnessed the greatest 17 year run in college football history and you are nitpicking this and that. If Saban had won all 17 titles would you say that the margin of victory wasn't high enough? The records that were set are too numerous to mention and will probably never be matched ever. The last 3 years were not his very best but 5th, 2nd, and 3rd or 4th plus 2 SEC titles would be a dream for 99% of programs. I for one am very thankful to Coach Saban!
Watching this for the 10th time makes me wish we played Georgia in the natty. On paper no one would say it, and the committee made the right decisions, but the best four teams in the country were big blue, bama, dawgs, & the horns.
You beat Alabama, I don't think you would have beaten Alabama and Georgia back to back. Be glad you didn't get your wish or you may have been highly disappointed!
YO. @JPM how did you get this game on here without being copyrighted/flagged?? I have 2 people trying to get it on here (both Michigan and Bama fans, but how did you get it on here without it being flagged/copyrighted but yet they can’t??)
Ive heard alot of people say that michigan won because they were the top seed and got to pick the location of the game and picked the rose bowl to drag Alabama all the way out west where michigan clearly had the crowd advantage instead of playing in the other bowl which would have been basically in alabamas backyard
Alabama is geographically closer to the Rose Bowl than Michigan is. I’ve heard this take too, but anybody who is not a southern homer knows this location is chalk for both of these teams. If Bama fans won’t travel “far”, that’s a Bama problem, not a Michigan one
Wait, don't they have a month to prepare it's not like they play in 1 or 2 weeks it's 30 days . The rose bowl is always played In pasadena. That's been a tradition since 1922, so 100 year's , you don't get to pick that location. Michigan fans always travel well , even in the national championship game in Houston, Washington fans where out numbered like 10-1 .
Michigan kicked Saban into retirement, ahahahaha!!! Michigan cheated. Bama played poorly, they had to travel, blah freaking blah. Y'all LOST, period. If Bama played in the Big-10, you could realistically remove several of their Natty's because it's the roughest Conference in NCAA football.
Are you drinking? Since 2000, OSU is the only Big Ten team to win a natty (2) until Michigan this year. The rest of the league is not very good. Alabama (6), LSU (3), Florida (2), Georgia (2) and Auburn (1) along with Clemson (2) have dominated the playoffs. Sure, Alabama lost this game with arguably the 14th best team of Saban's 17 year tenure at Alabama, congrats. The way Alabama played this game was a microcosm of the season, it was a miracle that the team that started the year and played so poorly ended up in the playoffs and SEC champs.
I've heard a lot of people say this was the real championship game, but c'mon. The way these teams played, they would have lost to either Texas or Washington in the first round. Only in the first round, though. We don't know how Texas or Bama would've done in the natty, but Michigan cleaned up and Washington dropped a dud (that's not to say Michigan wasn't great defensively - they were - but Washington also played an uncharacteristically sloppy game). Edit: I should have known better than to try to change people's minds on the internet with a RUclips comment containing an incomplete argument. Oh well. I doubt anyone's mind will change because of this...discourse. Call me high or dumb or whatever, I respectfully disagree.
That's because Washington never played a defense like Michigan, they pressured michael all night knocking him down consistently, to the point you could see him being grabing his ribs, Michigan was built to stop teams like Washington, osu runs a very similar offense as Washington, so it's nothing that Michigan hasn't dealt with before. A lot of ppl overlooked that. Also Washington had very bad run defense all year I believe they where ranked 49th or something like that in the country. So they where going to get gashed in the run game either way.
@@Wayne-tk5mx As I said, Michigan played a great game. But it was plays like the missed 4th down pass to Odunze, which would have been a TD (a lot of people overlook that), given UW momentum, and changed the course of the game, that killed UW. I've seen Penix deliver dots in more pressure than that play, it was simply bad execution. There were also receivers dropping open passes on third downs (a lot of people overlook that). Again, Michigan's defense was great, but it was those sloppy mistakes that did UW in. As for the run defense, there is no arguing that it was truly horrific in Q1. But in case you forgot, they played out of their minds afterward, such that even with a comatose offense they still kept within a TD until halfway through the 4th (a lot of people overlook that). I am in no way saying Michigan didn't deserve to win; they did. What I AM saying is that it is ingenuine to say the Rose Bowl winner was the inevitable champion. Suppose Bama and Texas had each won instead. Would Bama be the inevitable winner? Of course not; we saw Texas beat them in Tuscaloosa earlier in the year. We simply would have seen a version of Bama that could beat a version of Texas, and it is impossible to know beforehand what version each team will put forward. The version UW put out in the natty was dreadfully sloppy, even considering Michigan's elite defense, and if you do that you don't deserve to win. It's a shame, really. I know they're better than what they put out in Houston, but people are so blinded by the run-up score and prestige of the Michigan brand that they blithely disrespect UW (and Texas for that matter) by saying the Rose Bowl was the "real championship game".
I firmly believe Washington only got to the championship games for a few reasons. First, they skated by the pac12 conference that was knocking eachother off and nobody was really the true best team from there. Second, they played Texas which, ok they beat bama, but struggled on so many other games and never really impressed. While I don't think fsu should have made it, I agree on keeping Georgia out. They had their chance in the sec title game and lost.
There is no way watching this game. Anyone can say to me that Michigan won this game. BS Alabama gave them this game because of that fumble. Michigan looked lost in the 2nd half and Alabama looked tired
Drugs are bad little boy .. Michigan should've blown Alabama out had it not been for their special teams.. no way you can tell me Alabama should've been within 7 had Michigan special teams been even decent.....
How do you explain the last 2 TD’s UM scored? A 75 yard drive then a 2 play drive with 2 runs from the 25. That is winning football dude. That’s why you choose defense first in OT. Alabama D was tired in OT plus a great formation with 3 TE’s. Great game by both teams. That is football at its’ best . We just played a bit better. Bring on the 2024 season!🎉
Winning is what Michigan did.. cheating is what xhix State did from 2002-2019 who no longer can cheat now are an above average program back to their rightful place of being in the john Cooper years.....
@@Ohiofelonstate What? Are you sick? Instead of acknowledging the facts, your team openly broke the rules and the ncaa asked you to stop, you make up stuff to feel better. Got it.

That's because Washington never played a defense like Michigan, they pressured michael all night knocking him down consistently, to the point you could see him being grabing his ribs, Michigan was built to stop teams like Washington, osu runs a very similar offense as Washington, so it's nothing that Michigan hasn't dealt with before. A lot of ppl overlooked that. Also Washington had very bad run defense all year I believe they where ranked 49th or something like that in the country. So they where going to get gashed in the run game either way.
@@Wayne-tk5mx As I said, Michigan played a great game. But it was plays like the missed 4th down pass to Odunze, which would have been a TD (a lot of people overlook that), given UW momentum, and changed the course of the game, that killed UW. I've seen Penix deliver dots in more pressure than that play, it was simply bad execution. There were also receivers dropping open passes on third downs (a lot of people overlook that). Again, Michigan's defense was great, but it was those sloppy mistakes that did UW in.
As for the run defense, there is no arguing that it was truly horrific in Q1. But in case you forgot, they played out of their minds afterward, such that even with a comatose offense they still kept within a TD until halfway through the 4th (a lot of people overlook that).
I am in no way saying Michigan didn't deserve to win; they did. What I AM saying is that it is ingenuine to say the Rose Bowl winner was the inevitable champion. Suppose Bama and Texas had each won instead. Would Bama be the inevitable winner? Of course not; we saw Texas beat them in Tuscaloosa earlier in the year. We simply would have seen a version of Bama that could beat a version of Texas, and it is impossible to know beforehand what version each team will put forward. The version UW put out in the natty was dreadfully sloppy, even considering Michigan's elite defense, and if you do that you don't deserve to win. It's a shame, really. I know they're better than what they put out in Houston, but people are so blinded by the run-up score and prestige of the Michigan brand that they blithely disrespect UW (and Texas for that matter) by saying the Rose Bowl was the "real championship game".
@@Nick-fz2oo Not even a little
I firmly believe Washington only got to the championship games for a few reasons. First, they skated by the pac12 conference that was knocking eachother off and nobody was really the true best team from there. Second, they played Texas which, ok they beat bama, but struggled on so many other games and never really impressed. While I don't think fsu should have made it, I agree on keeping Georgia out. They had their chance in the sec title game and lost.
There is no way watching this game. Anyone can say to me that Michigan won this game. BS Alabama gave them this game because of that fumble. Michigan looked lost in the 2nd half and Alabama looked tired
Michigan won this game
Drugs are bad little boy .. Michigan should've blown Alabama out had it not been for their special teams.. no way you can tell me Alabama should've been within 7 had Michigan special teams been even decent.....
How do you explain the last 2 TD’s UM scored? A 75 yard drive then a 2 play drive with 2 runs from the 25. That is winning football dude. That’s why you choose defense first in OT. Alabama D was tired in OT plus a great formation with 3 TE’s. Great game by both teams. That is football at its’ best . We just played a bit better. Bring on the 2024 season!🎉
That made sense
Shows how cheating for 2.5 years pays off.
Winning is what Michigan did.. cheating is what xhix State did from 2002-2019 who no longer can cheat now are an above average program back to their rightful place of being in the john Cooper years.....
Because they had cheat codes to win the game?
@Buffalorock902 xhix state cheated for 20 years yet they only won 2 asterisked titles !!! They simply suck......
@@davidwujczyk3037 Yes. If I know exactly what play you’re coming to run every single play, I’d call that a cheat code
@@Ohiofelonstate What? Are you sick? Instead of acknowledging the facts, your team openly broke the rules and the ncaa asked you to stop, you make up stuff to feel better. Got it.
Michigan shouldn't have even been in the playoffs!
Remove your thumb from your bum
