Honestly, that 95 team was just as good, if not better, as the teams that won titles (even 96).

Yep. UF ran through the SEC that year like no team ever had before and got destroyed by Nebraska.

Urban is a lying sack of shiit so why do we all of a sudden trust him on this one?

He's also a self aggrandizing cheat who would obviously say his team was the best.

2001 Miami and 95 Nebraska are the best teams ever. The 2008 Gators were great but not the greatest. Honestly, I'm not sure were I would rank them just including BCS era champions.

I wouldn't call them the best team ever but that '08 team was possibly the most balanced team I've seen in a long time except for one game where the defense shite the bed against Ole Miss.

Save for Oklahoma that year, who was breaking all kinds of offensive records, and USC who had a juggernaut of a defense, that Florida team arguably had the best offense and defense in the nation. Special teams was right up there too.

That team was good and all, several teams are better. They just get a lot of credit for their NFL accomplishments

Was Urban alive when the 1995 Nebraska team played. If so, he didn't watch football then. Men vs boys.

or 2001 Miami with their 17 first round draft picks. Guess he also forgot 2008 Florida lost to Ole Miss at home

The same Ole Miss team that was loaded with talent and a decent coach away from a BCS bowl

that's some serious spinning right there. Yeah that Ole Miss team had some talent, but they still dropped 4 games. I don't see how you can say they go undefeated to win the west with a different coach.
