College Football Rewind: 5 most important games from 2005 season

In this episode of the rewind, 2005 gives us one of the greatest games in all of sports history, not just college football.

The 2005 season gave us one of the greatest games in all of sports history, not just college football history.

Notre Dame appeared to be back on the rise and West Virginia was changing the college football offense with head coach Rich Rodriguez and freshman quarterback Pat White.

The 2005 college football season had a lot of interesting developments. The ACC was able to have its first championship game due to Boston College coming over from the Big East and Urban Meyer was set to embark on his first season as the head coach of the Florida Gators and was going to help start the spread offense revolution in college football.

It seemed like all year long that we were heading for the inevitable matchup between Texas and USC, if Vince Young could get over the hump and finally beat Oklahoma, which was something the Longhorns had failed to do the past two seasons and it cost them chances at even bigger prizes in the season as a result.

As mentioned above, Meyer was starting to revolutionize how offense was being played in college football after Rich Rod and West Virginia. Rodriguez was an offensive genius and the hottest coaching prospect in the country.

This season also gave us what many consider to be not only the greatest game in college football history, but one of the greatest and most exciting games in sports history.
