As a Gator fan, this team still gives me nightmares. That '95 team was outstanding. The greatest team ever. Keep in mind, this Gator team was no slouch in 1995. They returned nearly all starters from that team and won the National Title the following year... Just makes it even more impressive in my opinion what Nebraska did to them. They beat four Top 10 teams.
You are absolutely correct. I followed that Florida team very closely that year, and they were kind of a machine themselves. They tore right through the SEC that year, admittedly the SEC back then wasn't like it is now, but it was still a strong conference. Even Peyton Manning's Tennessee team couldn't hang with them, nor could FSU, Georgia, Auburn, or Arkansas. I really thought the Gators would win that game, but early on in the game I could tell they were in big trouble. It was obvious that Nebraska just had too much size, speed, and depth. The people who aren't old enough to remember it have a hard time believing it now, but anybody who saw that Cornhusker team knew they were a machine
this team is hands down the greatest ever...both lines were just insane, no one stood a chance against them, our line would just dominate them like rag dolls, the backfield with frazier, phillips, and green was just too fast for everyone and should be known as the greatest option team to ever play the game too
Bama fan here since I was a kid in the 70s, and Bama had some great teams, but this Nebraska team still stands out in my mind as the best college football team I have ever seen. They steamrolled everybody they played. So fast, so strong, and so dominant. A freakin machine.
From an outsider's perspective(Longhorn fan). That 1995 Husker team was crazy good. Nothing against those Miami teams of a few years go, but you have had to witness those teams from the 90s with Nebraska. They crushed almost everyone during the mid '90s, pretty much most of the '90s. When we beat them in Lincoln in the late '90s, we were ecstatic. It was so difficult just to hang with them, let alone beat them. If you are old enough, you would remember.
As an Ohio State fan let me just say this about '95 Nebraska This is the greatest college football team to ever step foot on the field. And it will be from here until the end of time.
As an OU fan, I'm not AT ALL ashamed to say that this squad was BY FAR the best I'd ever seen in my 34 years on this earth. Btw, HOW IN THE HELL did Tommie Frazier not win a Heisman, injuries aside!
And the Florida team Nebraska dominated for the biggest blowout in title game history was the same team that won the National Championship the following year so that just goes to show how good that squad was. And that is why the 95 Huskers are the best college football team of all time.
Oh palease. Here's what Osborne knew on day 1 of 1995 He knew would face 11 coaches with the following records at their school * 5 were 0-0 because they were 1st year coaches * 4 had losing records * 2 had winning records by 7 games (5+2) Strength of schedule doesn't factor this in. AI will. By 2030, Neb95 will not be in top 10, probably long before. Coaches records at the school prior to 95 OK ST (0-0) MSU (0-0) CO (0-0) Iowa ST (0-0) OU (0-0) MO (3-8) Pac (12-21) ASU (15-18) KS (33-45) WA ST (35-33) +2 KSU (36-31) +5 Now you understand why Osborne knew he needed to run up the score. Nobody was gonna believe 95 was legit. Most, that know football, know 95 was a joke. And FL didn't show like Neb didn't 2 games later when they couldn't muster 1 point (actually possible). #19 ASU 17, #1 Neb 0.
@@robjohnson8861 Yes that why the teams they beat finished in the top 10 and that's why they put.up 60+ on Florida in the nation championship. Your just a hater and a idiot
95 huskers = Mike Tyson in his prime…speed power unstoppable force!!! the game was over before it started….. most dominate team in the history of college football
Sorry 2014 national champs florida st.....this Nebraska team would have gave you a beat down that you would not forget.They would beat you by a minimum of 28 points.I was fortunate to watch both teams play and it's a no brainer.
@@mr.billthrower7392 I know this was two years ago, but yes. Even those teams. Maybe not by 14 or more like they did in 1995, but they'd probably win by at least 13. There's no comparison. Both of those teams are great, but there's never been a more dominant team in all of college football.
We may or may not be great again but we can still say without a doubt that we had the best college football team of all time :) BTW all that matters is the final score genius.
Indeed, Nebraska's 1995 schedule was ranked 24th toughest out of 113 Division I teams. To have a steamrolled its opponents the way it did, to have never been challenged beyond halftime by any team in its path, to destroy 4 Top 10 finishers and to humiliate an otherwise remarkable Florida team (much the same one that would win the National Title the following year) is to cast a shadow of greatness that no other team has ever quite stepped out of. And I'm betting probably none ever will.
Not a nebraska fan, but this was the best college football team I have ever seen, and it looks like nothing this year in college football will change that opinion
Nebraska was 6th Nationally in Interceptions with 20. Suh had one. You're right, he was the only good part of our defense, good call. Our offense returns 10 or 11 starters next year. They won't improve at all. The fact that Zac Lee had a torn tendon in his throwing elbow did not affect his play at all, neither did the fact that the offensive line had key injuries throughout the year. The performance we had in the Holiday Bowl against a top 25 defense was no indication of what we could have been.
It's crazy that this team went 5-deep at I-back. Childs, Benning, and Sims would have started at most other Big 8 schools. Green and Phillips were once in a generation type of talents.
rofl, that Canes fan is clueless. HUGE Buckeye here. WELCOME TO THE BIG TEN! i can't wait to see us matched up! Nebraska '95 is the greatest college football team i'[ve ever seen.
the problem is, that no one ever stopped Vince Young, he dominated every team, including the team heralded as the "best in college history"(05 USC trojans) before Vince carved them up! plus they had a very good defense as well
I agree with you "Mjjb23". Since the EPIC beatdown Miami laid upon Nebraska [34-0 at the half], Nebraska has had two losing seasons, Fired 2 Coaches and is STILL yet to finish in the Top 15.
There are four teams that consistently show up in the "best ever" debate. 1971 Nebraska, 1972 USC, 1995 Nebraska and 2001 Miami. There are plausible arguments for each of these great teams. But I happen to find 1995 Nebraska's case to be the most convincing.
I wish Nebraska would play Miami this year. It would be a good victory for the Huskers. We lost to the Hokies by 1 point, and Miami got dominated by them the whole game. And Nebraska is in the top 5 scoring defenses.
Well Said. 2001 Miami also had twice the All-Americans as 95 NU, played 5 Top 15 Teams, had a better M.O.V. against ranked opp, only trailed for 115 seconds all season (0-3 at VT), set an NCAA Points Record and after losing ELEVEN starters to the NFL in 2001, were still good enough to make it to the NCG the following season.
By far THEE best team in the history of college football. There won't be another team to even come close to matching the athleticism and determination this team had, if so it will be decades before we see it. I mean theres a tramendous amount of talent out there dont get me wrong, but i dont think the players now-a-days couldn't match the mentality, motivation, and determination to carry out their full potential like the '95 team outstandingly demonstrated.
And the final score is more important than who lead at what point. We never trailed in the 2nd half ever and our closest game was 14 points. That is way more impressive than what Miami did far and away.

I'm not saying every player didn't have a roll in that loss, but that was the key moment. That was the key play in VA Tech's drive to take the lead. And Nebraska could beat some teams in the Top 25. By the end of the season you'll see that. I don't have to prove it to you now, nor do I have to defend the scheduling choices of our athletic department.
i was reading online it turns out the Oklahoma defense in 1995 held Nebraska on offense scoreless in the first half, the only team to do that all year.
Well, if you call Brook Berringer, Ahman Green, Clinton Childs, or somebody of that caliber a starter because they had started for the Huskers before, that's just great. They played quite a bit throughout the season, though.
01 Miami's average was 42.3-13.2 vs. ranked teams that year (when going by the final AP poll), giving them a avg. margin of victory of 29.1. NU's was actually 30.7, FWIW.
@BallzinAvice Its called lifting weights good sir. If you didn't know Nebraska has had the best weight facilities in college football pretty much forever. That includes now as we just upgraded yet again thanks to Suh's donation.
i actually have thought of that in that same perspective with the 04 usc team, except those guys would be 11 years old. It's really damn hard to compare these teams, but they are all great teams and they are qualified as great college teams
@FoxsitoTaquito not sure what schedule you saw sir. Beating 4 teams that ended in the top 10 is not cupcake to me. In fact thats a better schedule than any SEC team would ever play now....
The stats you typed I know of b/c I wouldn't be an FSU fan. However, for just one year there was no dominant team like the '95 Huskers. They beat 4 top ranked teams that year & their margin of victory was out of this world! Also, that shouldn't take away from me being an avid FSU fan. I'm just simply stating facts, being diplomatic & paying respects to one of College Footballs juggernauts!
We earned our Top 10 ranking and VT earned theirs by beating top quality opposition. Nebraska on the otherhand was gifted theirs, seeing how they haven't beaten anyone in almost a decade. Don't disappear when NU loses 2 of their next 3.
I agree dude, I think that 1995 Huskers were the best in College football history EVER, but that 2001 canes team was very close. Similar results across the board, EXCEPT nebraska beat some 3 top 10 teams to propel them to a dismantling of Florida, and Miami didn't play anybody in the top 10 til the NC, which they won by 3 touchdowns. I think NU's wins are more impressive than the Canes, but I think both were amazing. I do think NU was better though, and it was voted in their on ESPN too.
I strongly believe that the 95 huskers had the best rushing attack ever by a college team,they stomped over every team they played blowing out everyone on the schedule regardless of how good they were,i don't know much about the Miami 01 team except that they had a great D-fence, but i think the huskers would win cause they had the best O-line ever that didnt allow a sack all year and each running back averaged 5 yards a carry. thats My opinion.
@Jagnole101 27 players from this Husker team went on to sign NFL contracts. It was the combination of skill. speed, power and ball control that made their offense wear down other teams defenses and that same combination ate up other teams offenses. They were brutally efficient.
LSU fan here. Ive seen a lot of great football teams in my 34 years on this planet 1995 Nebraska is the best college football team Ive ever seen. Conference pride be damned!
1) 1995 Nebraska The most dominating team in CFB history. They destroyed 4 top ten teams, trailed only for 13 minutes the ENTIRE season an all star defense and 27 future pros, 9 future and current All-Americans. Even when stars where in trouble the team was so deep they rarely missed a step. Ranked number 1 all time by SI, CBS, Sagarin, and multiple other places. In the championship game against the # 2 ranked Florida Gators announcers where dumbstruck at the absolute power this team had."
Hey guys droping in 2 say Cody green started 2day VS baylor and did very well in mah book. Had about 160 yards passing in 10 attemps and rushed for 54 yards. He played well and there is room for inprovment but all in all he did very good he has a long way 2 go but he will do good good job Cody wish u luck on the rest of the season. GO BIG RED
I havre done extensive research in college football, and this team is the best of all time, VERY, VERY closely followed by the 1971 Nebraska team. First of all, they never scored less than 35 points in any game, and never lost any game by fewer than 14 points, That game against Washington State (35-21) came against the best defensive team in the nation that year. The last TD scored by WSU game in garbage time. Florida, Colorado, KSU, and KU - all in the Top 10, NU beat them handily..
Finally, a Husker fan with something more than just blind devotion with something to say. Nice job with the stats. Point taken. You listed NU avg PPG, but didn't list PPG Allowed. You listed NU avg YPG, but didn't list YPG Allowed. So I listed them for you and they prove your wrong. UM/NU against Ranked Opp: 01 UM: 47.2 - 14.4 [MOV - 32.8] 95 NU: 49.0 - 18.0 [MOV- 31.0] YPG Allowed vs Ranked Opp: 01 UM: 292 ypg, 95 NU: 313.5 ypg
if you didnt witness this team in action, you cant really understand how good they really were. they played 4 top10 and crushed them by an average score of 48-18. 01 Miami needed a fluke play against an BC team to win and barely beat VaTec.
Last I checked 94 Miami was up by 10 on Nebraska midway through the 4th quarter. If not for Erickson's "no back" offensive scheme getting Costa drilled all night, Miami's D isn't on the field the entire 2nd half. So like I said, Speed and discipline make the triple Option null.
@Setosku Wasn't the score 55-14 or something? I remember Nick Saban saying Tom Osborne said to him "you're not as bad as you think." during the post game handshake haha. I'm really looking forward to the matchup of our teams this year, should be a great game!!
I love how tommy just run's over people. Another thing is it seemed like nebraska back field didnt come down on the first hit either. Like Helu this year hope he keeps it up.
Facts 95 Kansas and Kansas State both FINISHED in the top 10. Anything you bring up by who they lost to or beat doesn't change the fact of where they FINISHED.
@Huskerfan64, For you.. and everyone else that doesn't know what the hell 'Scoring Defense' is... Scoring defense simply means how much points the other team scores on your defense.. Not how much points your defense scores..
Also for other people.. Nebraska finished #2 behind Alabama.. and only off by a few points.. to be exact on how many points.. .2 points behind alabama.
@ inimicall You're right, Miami hasn't done anything since 2001...... except win 2 conference titles, play for another National Championship, finish in the Top 11 every year after that until 2005. But yeah, I guess you're right.
I'm a HUGE Tomie Frasier fan, having said that I just don't believe the option offense would work today (2011). I believe college football has gotten much faster and stronger then in 95. You have teams like the USC Trojans in 05 that had too much speed on defense that could get in the backfield too fast for the option to materialize.
O ic, well my opinion on the option. I think if we still had great talent we could run the option almost as well as we used to. The Big 12 doesn't seem to have much D-fence now a days so it would pry work.
Never would have known unless they played. Unfortunately for us (IE; Miami) we could've fielded an entire team off injured players alone by the end of the season.

ABSOLUTELY

Brook Berringer (R.I.P) played half a game with a collapsed lung in 94. Thats a man right there.
The most terrifyingly talented college football team in history! Without a doubt.

This is the greatest college football team to ever step foot on the field. And it will be from here until the end of time.
I just heard Suh on Rome is burning. Dude is a class act. Im actually starting to like this Nebraska team.
The 2 greatest teams of all time were 95 Nebraska and 01 Miami. In that order
No argument

And the Florida team Nebraska dominated for the biggest blowout in title game history was the same team that won the National Championship the following year so that just goes to show how good that squad was. And that is why the 95 Huskers are the best college football team of all time.
remember when the '95 huskers almost lost that one game?
ya, me neither. GBR
Most dominant teams since 1970 based on closest regular season game:
5. 1991 Washington 7 pts.
5. 1992 Alabama 7 pts.
3. 1972 USC 9 pts.
*2004 Utah 11 pts (faced zero ranked teams)
2. 1995 Florida!! 11 pts.
1. 1995 Nebraska 14 pts.
Wow!!
Oh palease.
Here's what Osborne knew on day 1 of 1995
He knew would face 11 coaches with the following records at their school
* 5 were 0-0 because they were 1st year coaches
* 4 had losing records
* 2 had winning records by 7 games (5+2)
Strength of schedule doesn't factor this in. AI will. By 2030, Neb95 will not be in top 10, probably long before.
Coaches records at the school prior to 95
OK ST (0-0)
MSU (0-0)
CO (0-0)
Iowa ST (0-0)
OU (0-0)
MO (3-8)

I'm just simply stating facts, being diplomatic & paying respects to one of College Footballs juggernauts!
3:58 is possibly the best blindside block I have ever seen.
We earned our Top 10 ranking and VT earned theirs by beating top quality opposition. Nebraska on the otherhand was gifted theirs, seeing how they haven't beaten anyone in almost a decade. Don't disappear when NU loses 2 of their next 3.
Coming from a 'Bama fan, '95 Nebraska would CRUSH '01 Miami. I agree with coxbrowntrent with them holding the #1 spot.
I agree dude, I think that 1995 Huskers were the best in College football history EVER, but that 2001 canes team was very close. Similar results across the board, EXCEPT nebraska beat some 3 top 10 teams to propel them to a dismantling of Florida, and Miami didn't play anybody in the top 10 til the NC, which they won by 3 touchdowns. I think NU's wins are more impressive than the Canes, but I think both were amazing. I do think NU was better though, and it was voted in their on ESPN too.
I strongly believe that the 95 huskers had the best rushing attack ever by a college team,they stomped over every team they played blowing out everyone on the schedule regardless of how good they were,i don't know much about the Miami 01 team except that they had a great D-fence, but i think the huskers would win cause they had the best O-line ever that didnt allow a sack all year and each running back averaged 5 yards a carry. thats My opinion.
i had a friend ask me why doesnt nebraska have any jersey numbers retired...i simply responded, "because we wouldnt have any numbers left" :) GBR!!!
2001 Miami Hurricanes: Greatest CFB Team of All-TIme.
@Jagnole101 27 players from this Husker team went on to sign NFL contracts. It was the combination of skill. speed, power and ball control that made their offense wear down other teams defenses and that same combination ate up other teams offenses. They were brutally efficient.
Отлично!
LSU fan here. Ive seen a lot of great football teams in my 34 years on this planet 1995 Nebraska is the best college football team Ive ever seen. Conference pride be damned!
1) 1995 Nebraska
The most dominating team in CFB history. They destroyed 4 top ten teams, trailed only for 13 minutes the ENTIRE season an all star defense and 27 future pros, 9 future and current All-Americans. Even when stars where in trouble the team was so deep they rarely missed a step. Ranked number 1 all time by SI, CBS, Sagarin, and multiple other places. In the championship game against the # 2 ranked Florida Gators announcers where dumbstruck at the absolute power this team had."
Hey guys droping in 2 say Cody green started 2day VS baylor and did very well in mah book. Had about 160 yards passing in 10 attemps and rushed for 54 yards. He played well and there is room for inprovment but all in all he did very good he has a long way 2 go but he will do good good job Cody wish u luck on the rest of the season. GO BIG RED
I havre done extensive research in college football, and this team is the best of all time, VERY, VERY closely followed by the 1971 Nebraska team.
First of all, they never scored less than 35 points in any game, and never lost any game by fewer than 14 points, That game against Washington State (35-21) came against the best defensive team in the nation that year. The last TD scored by WSU game in garbage time. Florida, Colorado, KSU, and KU - all in the Top 10, NU beat them handily..

@01CanesrdGOAT I LOOK FORWARD TO START THE NEW YEAR WITH YOUR WORDS OF WISDOM!
Finally, a Husker fan with something more than just blind devotion with something to say. Nice job with the stats. Point taken.
You listed NU avg PPG, but didn't list PPG Allowed.
You listed NU avg YPG, but didn't list YPG Allowed.
So I listed them for you and they prove your wrong.
UM/NU against Ranked Opp:
01 UM: 47.2 - 14.4 [MOV - 32.8]
95 NU: 49.0 - 18.0 [MOV- 31.0]
YPG Allowed vs Ranked Opp:
01 UM: 292 ypg, 95 NU: 313.5 ypg
We will never get anymore teams like 95 Nebraska and 2001 Miami.
if you didnt witness this team in action, you cant really understand how good they really were. they played 4 top10 and crushed them by an average score of 48-18.
01 Miami needed a fluke play against an BC team to win and barely beat VaTec.
Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed every minute of it.
i still love dis vid.
Last I checked 94 Miami was up by 10 on Nebraska midway through the 4th quarter. If not for Erickson's "no back" offensive scheme getting Costa drilled all night, Miami's D isn't on the field the entire 2nd half.
So like I said, Speed and discipline make the triple Option null.
@Setosku Wasn't the score 55-14 or something? I remember Nick Saban saying Tom Osborne said to him "you're not as bad as you think." during the post game handshake haha. I'm really looking forward to the matchup of our teams this year, should be a great game!!
20 years ago. Time flies.
I love how tommy just run's over people. Another thing is it seemed like nebraska back field didnt come down on the first hit either. Like Helu this year hope he keeps it up.
Facts 95 Kansas and Kansas State both FINISHED in the top 10. Anything you bring up by who they lost to or beat doesn't change the fact of where they FINISHED.
best team ever.
its a painful loss but a loss.. cant help but look ahead
Textbook running by Ahman Green. He must have broken 100 arm tackles in that video.
6:20 Looks like a home game
@Huskerfan64, For you.. and everyone else that doesn't know what the hell
'Scoring Defense' is... Scoring defense simply means how much points the other team scores on your defense.. Not how much points your defense scores..
Also for other people.. Nebraska finished #2 behind Alabama.. and only off by a few points.. to be exact on how many points.. .2 points behind alabama.
@ inimicall
You're right, Miami hasn't done anything since 2001...... except win 2 conference titles, play for another National Championship, finish in the Top 11 every year after that until 2005. But yeah, I guess you're right.
I'm a HUGE Tomie Frasier fan, having said that I just don't believe the option offense would work today (2011). I believe college football has gotten much faster and stronger then in 95. You have teams like the USC Trojans in 05 that had too much speed on defense that could get in the backfield too fast for the option to materialize.
O ic, well my opinion on the option. I think if we still had great talent we could run the option almost as well as we used to. The Big 12 doesn't seem to have much D-fence now a days so it would pry work.
Never would have known unless they played. Unfortunately for us (IE; Miami) we could've fielded an entire team off injured players alone by the end of the season.
Fact: 33 players from 1995 nebraska have played in the pros..27 in the NFL
