Rocketsocks Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 How can you take all the bias out of your answer when everyone responding will be a Husker fan? Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I was just thinking the other day that we should run more option and that Bo should go ask TO for help. I think if we hired Gill and maybe Frost and Crouch Co-Co- Co Offensive coordinators it would work. Back to topic..... 95 huskers vs Wolverines from Red Dawn (at full strength before the mayors kid sold them out but after they got the air force colonel). Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I don't think the Blackshirts would fare too well against RPGs. But then again, could an RPG even hit Terrell Farley? I'm gonna go with the 95 Huskers, with some casualties. 1 Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 it would be crazy if the 83 teams defense was as good as the 95 team. Unfortunately the D was a year away. Nebraska's D in 84 was pretty good. Quote Link to comment
Muck Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 BAMA had the greatest defense in college football history. Take all bias out of this. How can you honestly expect no bias when your preceding statement is biased? 92 isn't even the best defense in 'Bama's history (1961) let alone college football. Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 it would be crazy if the 83 teams defense was as good as the 95 team. There are lots of things that are crazy....you don't even know. Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Ok, consensus seems to be Ditka. Now Ditka vs Chuck Norris (no RPG's available) Go. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Ditka vs Chuck Norris? The epic battle would continue 24-7 right up until the end of the world on Dec. 21, 2012. Result: A draw. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 2009 New Orleans Saints vs. 1953 New York Yankees....and go.... As I reread the OP and I look at your avatar, I believe there is a much more pressing question. This clip sums up why I no longer bother with cable. The History Channel just needs to die.

macroboy Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I really don't see how Ditka wins this unless he has Swayze with him. Quote Link to comment
Ratt Mhule Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Better DC: Craig Bohl or Kevin Cosgrove...go Quote Link to comment
HUSKER 37 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Nebraska wins and it's not really that close. Alabama's defensive stats were very good that year but they played a pretty easy schedule and didn't do anything completely crazy. outside of the bowl game they played 3 ranked teams. Tennesse, Missisippi State and Florida. Tennesse had 3 losses on the year, Florida had 4 losses on the year and Missisippi State had 5. Against two of those ranked teams, Missisppi State and Florida - Alabama gave up 21 points. That same year 6 other teams held Missippi State to less than 21 points. Including a 5-6 South Carolina team that held them to 6 points and 2-10 LSU (the worst team in the conference that year by a wide margin) held Missisppi State to just 3 points. HALF the schedule held Missippi State to fewer points that supposedly powerhouse Alabama. That same year 3 other teams held Florida to less than 21 points and Florida only scored more than 28 points 4 times that entire season and that was to the 4 worst teams on the schedule. (2 win LSU, 4 win Kentucky, 4 win Vanderbilt and 5 win Louisville) So yes Alabama had great statistics but their schedule was very favorable and they really didn't hold anyone of note to any defensive lows other teams weren't also doing. - It also helps that the highest ranked team in the SEC that year besides Alabama was #8 ranked 10-2 Georgia and Alabama didn't play them that year. Alabama played a Miami team in the bowl game that beat #3 Florida State 19-16 and #7 Penn State 17-14. The rest of Miami's schedule that year was Boise State-like. Nebraska destroyed a Florida team that had beaten 5 ranked teams (soundly) and had people considering them to be among the greatest teams of all time before the game. Statistics of note. - Alabama beat the 3 ranked teams on the regular season schedule by an average of 7.6 Points. - Nebraska beat the 3 ranked teams on the regular season schedule by an average of 28.3 Points, Miami went into the bowl game with Alabama as a team averaging 30.8PPG on offense and allowing 13.4PPG on defense. Alabama surpassed both averages easily BUT while they did score 10 more points than any other team on Miami's schedule the Defense did NOT hold Miami to their season low on offense. Heck 5-6 Arizona held miami to just 8 points in an 8-7 loss that year. Florida went into the bowl game with Nebraska as a team averaging 42,9PPG on offense and allowing 20.2PPG on defense. Nebraska held them to their season low offensively and nearly doubled the next highest point total Florida gave up on the season. Miami's D was great in 1992, but it was also overrated. If Jackie Sherill's 7-5 Missisppi State team with dual threat QB Greg Plump could put up 21 points on that Alabama team.. I think 1995 Nebraska could manage to put up 42 and considering Alabama only averaged 28ppg on the year they probably don't even make their average. I'd go 42-17 Nebraska. Wow!
