I’ve always felt the 05 team was a better team than the 06 team. This team had a better defense than 06 with Carpenter,Hawk, and Whitner. All first round picks. The offense was as good maybe a little better. The three receivers Ginn,Gonzalez, and Holmes all first round picks as well. Not to mention they may have been a little better on the offense line with Sims and Mangold. They lost two games by a combined 10 points. They lost by three to Texas who won the Natty and to one of the best Penn State teams ever on there field by seven points. They finished 11-1 that year and number three in the final polls.
I completely agree with you. To be honest, this may sound crazy, but something tells me it may have been just as epic of an National Championship Game vs USC. Ginn vs Bush, Linehart vs Smith, what a game that could have been. USC was amazing back then and that ‘05 Buckeye team had the roster to hang with them and could have beat them.
As much hype as the current and most recent Buckeye WRs, that 2005 room had 3 first rounders. A couple plays and that team would’ve played USC for the national title instead of Texas. USC barely escaped The Irish. In this game Ohio State nearly ran the Irish off the field.
I want to throw up when I hear “celebration penalty” - this is part of the ‘everyone gets a trophy’ mentality!!! My goodness don’t celebrate and hurt the opponents feelings 🤣🤣🤣
Andy Gygi Why, because you accomplished something and it hurt the other guys feelings? Here does it stop? It’d be different if he got in the guys face or something! We’re just making a weak pathetic snowflake society!!!
@@cincinnaticobra5477 That's true, but as I understand the ND Athletic Department's public release statement, they said they'd lose money if they joined the Big Ten. But Nonpeon's comment was about the quality of Big Ten opponents (like Ohio State). Historically, ND has held their own against Big Ten opponents, but lately, the conference has done well against ND.
@@umbrella0326 his comment was insinuating they're scared of the competition, which is absurd since they schedule them every year. they'd lose money joining a conference. also they love the weekly NBC game as opposed to putting half their schedule on the bigten network, and they schedule nationally for coast to coast exposure -which is huge marketing for a little catholic school in the midwest. they can and do schedule bigten games whenever they want, along with anyone else they choose.
@@cincinnaticobra5477 True. Notre Dame is happy with their NBC deal and they should be. It's a sweet deal! They've been in it for over twenty years now and the AD is very flush with cash. Good for them. And ND correct me if I'm wrong, but ND and the Big Ten has been pretty even in recent years. OSU has just been very, very good in recent years and, well, we fans can get a little...braggy. And we shouldn't.
You could take clips of this game, the '95 and '96 regular season games, and the 2016 game between these two teams and they would all look the same. Ohio State runs Notre Dame ragged every time.
Ohio State had 5 players that were drafted in the first round in the NFL Draft that spring: AJ Hawk went to The Packers, Bobby Carpenter to the Cowboys, Donte Whitner to the Bills, Santonio Holmes to the Steelers, and Nick Mangold to the Jets. Four of those picks played in this game. Ohio State offense was like a video game here big play after big play and if it weren't for the turnovers, the score would've probably been more lopsided.
GO BUCKS !!! yes he did Teddy was the man for us !!! Checkout my youtube channel show BUCKEYE VINNIE, please watch my videos and subscribe to my channel thanks.
Ok...ummm..because a 9-2 Ohio st. Who played and should have beat Texas. Also played Penn st., Wisconsin, ichigan, a top 25 Iowa and everyone else. A 10 -1 Oregon who played who??? USC. And.......no one...I think that Ohio state doesnt have to prove anything to Oregon...see the 08 Rose bowl and the 14 national championship. Which we beat Oregon both times. Yes Oregon was good ..if anything it should have been Ohio st. V Oregon. Not Notre dame. Oregon was probably better than Notre dame.
OSU won the B10 and the At Large WITH Penn State so there was no way Oregon was getting it, and ND if it has a good record will always and i mean ALWAYS get a January Bowl.
Wow , Ohio St. out gained us 617 yards to 348 in this game. Luckily , the Buckeyes fumbled 3 times and missed 2 field goals in this game or this would have been a total blow out. Bummer. GO IRISH !!!💯🍀🍀🍀
Ya Notre Dame has a good team that year. There secondary had a hard time with Ginn and Santonio Holmes a future Super bowl MVP. Also Anthony Gonzales who played in the NFL for several years as well. One of the best WR groups ever on any team.
Yeah right, why do the SEC pansies refuse to travel up to the B1G ? Afraid of the cold/snow. We have traveled down your way & won 🏆 Your to soft to play outside of your comfort zone
This game was the beginning of the end for Charlie Weis. Jim Tressel destroyed the narrative that Charlie Weis was some kind of offensive genius.
The loss to Navy in 2007 was the beginning of the end for Charlie Weis at Notre Dame..🏈😆

Ohio State went 11-2 😳 in 05
Ohio State also had Yuoboty and Whitner on defense in 2005, and those guys left after 2005 ⁉🏈🏟
2005 Ohio State played well in the desert..2006 Ohio State had a disaster in the desert vs. Florida ⁉🏜🏟🏈🤔
@@fiesta061000 02 an 03 went well too.
The final Fiesta Bowl at Sun Devil Stadium
That WR group with Santonio Holmes, Ted Ginn, Anthony Gonzales and Roy hall was as good as any in the history of College Football.

Capped Ohio State's only consecutive 4 game Bowl win streak.3 year Bowl losing streak followed
I see why Notre Dame wants NO parts of the Big 10
That and, of course, money.
what are you talking about, they schedule big 10 teams every year

Notre Dame led every game except 2016 when they lost jalen Smith for the game
@@gregrice1532 Ohio St lost Nick Bosa lol
@@gregrice1532notre dame hasn't beaten osu in the modern football era lol. Its been several decades. Like soo long ago its actually a crazy stat
The big ten should refuse to play Notre Dame in any sport for any regular season game
And give up a free win, no way.
@@osu5inarow LOL Right!
On that opening drive, the Buckeye defense was about as bad as it gets.
Ohio State had 5 players that were drafted in the first round in the NFL Draft that spring: AJ Hawk went to The Packers, Bobby Carpenter to the Cowboys, Donte Whitner to the Bills, Santonio Holmes to the Steelers, and Nick Mangold to the Jets. Four of those picks played in this game.

Ohio State played great this game.Controlled game.Played brilliantly against Michigan and Notre Dame
During that time you had Reggie Bush, Ted Ginn Jr, and Devin Hester college football was over the top
Teddy Bowlgame...... Always made big plays in bowls dude had sick skills
They never show that Alamo Bowl game the year before this, he had a real sick game that night
GO BUCKS !!! yes he did Teddy was the man for us !!! Checkout my youtube channel show BUCKEYE VINNIE, please watch my videos and subscribe to my channel thanks.
He was great in the league as well
the whole game the announcers are acting like THE Ohio state is overmatched LMAO
Well Mr Michigan Brent hates osu. That's why he always tried to put osu down every game

I thought the same thing, he raised his hand up in excitement and he's like "He deserves it." For what? No taunting, dancing, yelling etc.
RIP Mike Kudla
Refs were absolutely terrible in this period of the 2000s. Blowing the play dead on encroachment? How many dead ball penalties were in this game?
He called offsides. But encroachment is correct. He touched the offense. Dead ball penalty.

Ummm…. the wolverines have beaten y’all in their house and in your house and are the reigning big 10 champs as of 2023 😂🤡
datish lining up as TE ,now that's a jumbo package
Weiss was considered a HC spot at my HS at one time. Massillon, Oh. We passed.
When Notre Dame loses, America wins.
I feel like the people in these comments didn’t even watch this game lmao
I always thought it was pretty silly that Ohio State (9-2) and Notre Dame (9-2) made the BCS over Oregon (10-1) whose only loss was to #1 USC (11-0)
Ok...ummm..because a 9-2 Ohio st. Who played and should have beat Texas. Also played Penn st., Wisconsin, ichigan, a top 25 Iowa and everyone else. A 10 -1 Oregon who played who??? USC.

And USC wasn't 1 that year Texas was. And Ohio state outplayed them and should have beat them also.
It's the Bowl committee that picks the opposition to play in their game.
@@justinhren3431 That was the point of the BCS. Big wins give you big points. Losses drop you.

You are high as fuck.
One step, no control ... Sorry, bro, but he didn't fumble... Buckeyes for the FIESTA BOWL WIN over the Irish! 🏈
The Big 10 has been & will always be boring AF to watch. Thank GOD for the SEC where real football is played with the best players in the country
are you high football is football i guess its more boring they dont serve moonshine at the stadium
Yeah right, why do the SEC pansies refuse to travel up to the B1G ? Afraid of the cold/snow. We have traveled down your way & won 🏆 Your to soft to play outside of your comfort zone
How is this boring? The sec played exactly the same. Even now it's the same. Hell the sec this year really sucks.
