Only one of its three title-clinching wins came in an actual 1 vs. 2 game (the infamous 62-24 beatdown of Florida in '95). In both '94 (Penn State) and '97 (Michigan) the Cornhuskers avoided facing undefeated Big Ten teams that were ranked No. 1 or 2, instead beating No. 3 Miami (10-1) in the Orange Bowl in '94 and No. 3 Tennessee (11-1) in that same bowl in '97.


All three for Bama were #1 vs #2. Everyone focuses on the win loss record, but this is an important point. [/quote]

Great point. Counts for something! And don't forget that 2009 BAMA team beat the 3 previous BCS champs in the same year, several ranked teams, and ended undefeated seasons for UF & TX. 2009 may not even be our best team in this run, but I think they stand out as having the most impressive season of ANY BCS champ.

1995 Nebraska played 3 top 10 teams (Colorado, K Schtate, and kU) in conference and it's OOC conference schedule included Michigan State, Arizona State, Washington State and Florida.

I'm not sure that's an easier schedule than Bama's in 2011.
