Tough to argue on this one.

Agreed. Watched it on a biz trip at a bar and grill in Chicago. I talked trash early was humbled but still defiant after. People focus on the score but it's the opponent that bugged me. Blowing a big lead at home hurt worse by game 6 series was already over. Blowouts are lol but it's the give away games that stick with you. Mavs blew us out in 2011 but game 3 hurt more. The Worthy pass stolen by Henderson the Ralph Sampson tip in THOSE hurt me. A blowout looks bad but generally the better team wins that series if the opponent is blowing you out even once they are the better team. 1985 only exception I can think of.

To paraphrase old-school Bengals linebacker Reggie Williams speaking of the Browns after the Drive, Cleveland teams choke, but they choke with class.

Amazing game. Probably one of the Top 5 Finals games of all-time.

All true. 2014 doesnt erase it but I am sure it helped make the revenge a bit sweeter.

I always thought that game was less about Florida being embarrassed and more about how great that Nebraska team was, tbh. IIRC even Steve Spurrier said after that game that if the teams played ten times Nebraska would win all ten. Ohio State's loss to Florida in the 2007 NCG was way more embarrassing, imo.
