Foppa Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I'll never understand why some people think it's fun to compare teams from totally different eras. It's friggin dumb if you ask me. edit: Weeeee! 6500 posts! The best part is it's always 95 Nebraska vs. ****. If you're comparing 2 teams and one is always '95 Nebraska, then shouldn't that be telling ESPN something Well said. Quote Link to comment
NIRVANA Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 the 1997 huskers would demolish OSU....the 95 husker team is untouchable...the greatest college football team ever to snap a football. Quote Link to comment
BGREDSTUCKN IA Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I think one of the biggest parts of that team that gets overlooked a little is the O line. That pipeline was freakin huge, mobile, and damn good. Those 5 could of handled 10 guys in the box every play. Quote Link to comment

I remeber in one game where an O-lineman was 40 yards downfield with the HB looking for someone to block. Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I'll never understand why some people think it's fun to compare teams from totally different eras. It's friggin dumb if you ask me. edit: Weeeee! 6500 posts! I agree, you can't compare different eras. I don't even know if it's all that feasible to compare back to back season NC's. The thing I find ironic and mostly hypocritical is how posters here always bash fans from other teams that cling to major victories like CU fans and the 2001 game versus NU. However, the posters here are more than willing to cling to major victories or a team that we had over a decade ago. Who cares if someone believes a team from a couple of years ago could beat a team we had over a decade? There's fans that believe we shouldn't have been the NC's in 1994 (mostly Penn State fans). I think we can all agree that the 95 team was the best ever football team NU has fielded. Were they the best team ever? Who cares? We'll never know unless it's flag football and we can get LP out of jail, slim Tommie down quite a bit, and clone Brook's remains! Quote Link to comment
huskermatthew Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 It's all in good fun. No one can really prove anything. But it gives us something to talk about during this LONG LONG offseason. stike that first part. It SHOULD be all in good fun. Still no sense in getting feathers ruffled over it. If I were a Miami fan, of course I would say the 2001 team was the best of all time. But of course I am a Nebraska fan that wouldn't mind debating said Miami fan Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 OSU wasn't even the best team in 2002, so I think this argument is moot. The officials gave them the Fiesta Bowl. Quote Link to comment

But of course I am a Nebraska fan that wouldn't mind debating said Miami fan Actually alot of the Miami fans have said that 95 Huskers were the best ever and 2001 Miami was a close second. Not everyone is a homer. It appears that the only ones that think tOSU WAS BETTER ARE Butteye fans and one idiot Sooner fan. Everyone else has said that their is no comparison. Actually one Michigan fan said their 97 team would have beaten our 95 team. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Their 97 team wouldn't have beaten our 97 team. Didn't they win by 5 points over an unranked opponent in the Rose Bowl? Didn't we stomp all over Peyton Manning in the Orange? Quote Link to comment

Actually one Michigan fan said their 97 team would have beaten our 95 team. It is really tough to argue that our '95 team isn't the best team of all time. The way we dominated that "fast" SEC defense and ate Danny Warfell's lunch, it is tough to say any other team would even hold a candle to us. tOSU Fans are just dreamers. Quote Link to comment
LAHusker Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Remember, it's "THE" Ohio State University. 95 Huskers, best team ever-period. I was at that game against Florida, but just recently watched the TV version. Man, talk about big, strong, and fast players, plus phenomenal depth. Just glad we have this type of tradition to talk about, some schools would kill just for one of our championship teams. Quote Link to comment

Licensed to Ill Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 The only team that can even *compare* to the '95 Huskers is '01 Miami. '02 OSU? Give me a break. This year's OSU probably could've beaten them... By the way, I put this question up on Yahoo Answers.
