I'm guessing the video is about 11 years and six months old.
obviously....then why does it sound like it was originally taped in the 60's!?!?!?!
No HD back in the day, dude. This was elite television back in 2001. Crazy, eh?
I have several of the classic games from the 90's on my DVR .... and all have better quality than this game..... I even watched a ND game from the 80's with better quality!

In all seriousness, there does seem to be a weird noise in the background, like airplanes flying overhead. Is the Citrus Bowl located near an airport?
It sounds like someone at the stadium is playing a didgeridoo.
For some reason, I seem to remember there being some kind of technical difficulties in the press box that day. I mean, the Citrus Bowl is a total dump, after all...
I've only become a Michigan fan after HS, so its always exciting seeing the heyday of Michigan a decade (!) ago.
When did you graduate from HS?
Thanks for letting me know. I was incredibly bored while waiting for my girlfriend to get home from work to cook me some supper. HA.
they couldn't cover david terrell in this game. gosh i hope hoke can get the pro-style O back to those levels...with a defense to match.
plus its always great to see Brady Hoke cameos when they show the sideline
That is some breathtaking OL play.
OTOH, the secondary . . . guh.
I remember being so frustrated with that defense. They were very young. At home, they were dominant all season. Away from the big house, they got torched every game.
We were big favorites in this game. I remember being annoyed that we only won by 3 points.
Henson missed the UCLA game and freshman John Navarre still had us in position to win but Epstein missed two field goals and John threw a pick in Bruin territory on the final drive, ending the game 23-20.
The offense exploded to a 28-10 halftime lead at Purdue, then pissed it away with an inability to stop Brees (hard to fault them) and Lloyd-ball regression until the lead was whittled down to 31-29. Purdue missed a lead-changing chip-shot field goal, only to force yet another 3&out and get a second shot at it to win the game 32-31.
And then there was the shit-show of conceding 54 points to Northwestern but still only losing the game because Thomas couldn't hold onto the damn ball.
That team easily could've/should've been playing Oklahoma for the national title, and sadly actually probably would have had a decent shot against that team. Balls!
The NW heartbreaker was my first Michigan road game.. Walker coached one hell of a game.
funny part for me is that, I felt like this was when the secondary under Carr started taking steps back.
It seems like we got slower and slower after this and our safety play never really improved over the next few yrs.
You shut your mouth...that is the greatest non-copied cheer ever. I mean that is freaking intimidating for the opponent.
Sure, they seem to hear it week after week, but it is still a scary cheer.
I just actually heard fans cheering "Go! .... Blue!" .... "Go! .... Blue!"
Terrell was such a great player in college . . . what happened to him in the pros?
Certainly was bomb-ass, that's for sure.
deciding who is better, the O-line or A-train? 50/50? What a wonderful problem to have.
I remember watching this game with my dad when I was 6. Now I'm an enrolled freshman. Wow time flies.

Things are starting to make sense now...
My birthday is this month.
Terrell and A-Train wreckin lives!!!
LeSueur! BOOM!!!!!!!
probably still felt that hit when he got out of bed this morning.
This was a great game.
I could watch Tyrone Wheatley carry the ball on those QB draws all day. Tony McGee had a significant hand in the scoring as well too, as I recall. Awesome performances by both.
Alexander, Smith, Toomer or Wheatley? It was a good problem to have if you were a QB, I think.
I met A-Train in 5th grade. He signed my cursed football and his career died. I have around 25 signatures on that ball, every single Bear to sign it has suffered career ruining injuries shortly after.
The list includes A-Train; Barry Minter, Raymont Harris, Tom Waddle, Tommy Harris, Mike Brown, and Jonny Knox plus many others.
That ball will not be complete until you get signatures from Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, and Julius Peppers on it
Great game.. Michigan OWNS the SEC
