Speaking at a football camp Thursday, Ohio State coach Urban Meyer again called his 2008 Florida Gators team the best ever. And he cited the instincts of a wild animal in doing so.
"Once again, I know some of you won state championships, I've been a part of a couple great teams," Meyer said. "I think the best team that's ever played the game in '08.
The 2008 Florida team won the 2009 BCS Championship Game over Oklahoma 24-14. The team included Tim Tebow and Percy Harvin and Tebow was the SEC's Offensive Player of the Year, losing out on a possible second-straight Heisman to Sam Bradford. However, that Florida team didn't go undefeated; it lost 31-30 at Ole Miss in its fourth game of the season.
It's not the first time he's said this about the 2008 Gators. He vocalized the same thoughts in May of 2013.
