POWER CONFERENCES POTENTIALLY COULD HAVE THEIR OWN DIVISION!

We play 13-14 games a year, while winning 9-10. 9-10 of which are against our "peers", as I understand it. So if we have 3 gimme wins in non con, replaced by 3 games against "peers", and we already have a 67%-70% win percentage against our peers, then I would assume we may lose on more game and go 2 for 3 in the extra 3 games against our peers.

My point of course, is that Nebraska would be vying for the top spot in a conference with other very good teams. Playing against those teams regularly would be a better yardstick of where the program is rather than a sloppy four touchdown shitfest against Purdue.

Why do you always act like Nebraska is the only program that plays some sh**ty teams?

I don't, it's my belief that most of Nebraska's success and the ensuing bragging from the fans come from their victories over bad teams. Further, I also believe, in recent years, when Nebraska plays a decent to above average team, they lose, often embarrassingly.

Bo is 3-1 against BCS-conference teams that ended the year with the same number of wins Nebraska did.

Doubt there will be consensus but I would probably go for 2011 Michigan State - an 11-3 team that barely lost the B1G Championship Game and beat Georgia in the Outback Bowl. The Spartans finished ranked #10/11 and we totally dominated them - won 24-3 and they only had 187 yards of offense.

i think southern miss in 2012 was our most complete game, but 2011 msu at home was probably our best win.

Yeah honestly that was a good win. But why not 2011 OSU, really most of the wins that year in conference were pretty good. But MSU would probably be tops.

My only question: What 80 teams are going to be considered Power House quality?

Half the teams now in the 5 conferences are weak and they want to go to 16 teams per conference. IMO, we will still have the non-confernce quality teams that we play now.

i am looking for games from start to finish. best overall performance and win. ohio st., while awesome, was not a great game for us. it was an incredible qtr. and a half, though. also, not a quality opponent at the time.

another game for consideration would be the 2011 psu game because they were 12th (IIRC) and it was on the road. but that was a unique situation.

 
They may not have been a quality opponent due to the circumstances, but it's still a team that you had to respect with their athletes.

 
Cut FBS to 85 or 90 teams, then don't allow games against FCS.
