I knwo nobody is ever going to agree on a top to bottom list of course. It's just wild to me that using basic things like conference championships, national championships, and on field victories are somehow not a good meausring stick. I mean those are pretty good ways to comapre teams I'd think lol

Nebraska is probably one of the top 5 programs in all of CFB historically.


ehh I don't quite agree there

Until 20 years ago, I would have said top 2 or so.


man how old are you? Even at their peak, which you could probably say in 1997 was the highest point their program had ever been or would ever be, I doubt anyone woudl call them the 2nd best program in CFB history.

Older than you're guessing, and I would say Nebraska was at their peak long before 97.

Until recently, they were really only down in the 50's. Outside of that, they'd been a strong, highly ranked team most seasons. They've fallen HARD the past 2 decades, and still have more wins and a better % than anyone in the SEC outside of Alabama.
