Who is the best team this decade?

MassNole · 11-04-2009, 08:53 AM

Simple enough question, who is the best team of this decade.

For me there is no question that 2001 Miami would prison rape every other team with a claim to a National Championship from this decade 99 out of 100 times. They are on the short list for the GOAT if not a clear GOAT, as such my team of the decade.

I came up with this list from the BcS National Champions as well as other teams with valid claims who fell victim to the BcS and were denied a chance to win a championship.

2001 canes... this is one of the best teams ever. portis, ed reed, shockey, andre johnson, mcgahee, frank gore, vilma.

Agreed. That team had a ridiculous amount of future NFL talent.

2001 Canes.

'01 The U

'05 Horns (alumni bias). '01 Canes followed by the Horns if I wanna be truthful.

'05 Texas. That team had a lot of future NFL talent on defense too. Almost every single one of them starts in the NFL now.

And we all know that there is no college football defense that could stop VY.

If 05tex and 01canes played 100 times I highly doubt the canes win 99 of them.

Gators and USC have dominated the last decade.

MassNole · 11-04-2009, 01:09 PM

No Big 12 defense could and certainly 2005 USC's couldn't, but none of those were anywhere close to the level of Miami's defense. I said in another topic that 2003-04 FSU's defense was one of it not the most talented defenses of the decade, I would even put them behind 2001 Miami.

If they spied Ed Reed on VY during a game it would have been game over for Texas.

This topic is about the best team, not the best program over the course of the decade.
