It has been 20 years since one of the most fantastic and frustrating seasons in Florida Gators history.
And for Florida fans of a certain age, the 2001 campaign is the season that might spur the most discussion if you bring it up at a bar or a barbecue.
Consider this: Rex Grossman’s Heisman candidacy was so potent that season that Florida fans maintain that he was robbed — and when we do, people listen to us.
Steve Spurrier leaving Florida — and to go be the first big-name coach to fail at the helm of Dan Snyder’s Washington franchise — at the end of the season was a stunner that made over college football practically overnight.
