what about them? Fantastic, incredible team with a hellacious defense. But they won a boring 10 point game over a 4 loss boston college, and needed a damn near miracle to escape VT by 2 points. They are ONE OF the best teams assembled, but they aren't close to the GOAT.
The closest game 95 NU had all year was 14 points. They played 4 teams ranked in the top 10 with the closest of those being a 23 point win. Their margins of victory over top 10 teams that year were 24, 23, 38, and 38. And let's not gloss over that 95 UF team they embarrassed for the title. They were 12-0 coming in, wiht their closest game being an 11 point win over #6 FSU. Every other game they were raping people. In fact many UF fans will tell you 95 was one of their best teams ever. And they didn't even belong on the same field with nebraska.
'12 bama was really, really good. But even if they had beaten aTm, they still wouldn't be close to 95 nebraska.

to be honest, with the way the game has evolved and training, conditioning and just speed and power, the 2012 Bama team vs Nebraska ripped from 20 years ago would be a very interesting battle.
Besides, they'd be close by virtue of being easily in the top 10 if they finished undefeated, obliterating their championship victim and sending pretty much the whole 2 deep to the League.

'11 Bama is more comparable to them than '12 BAMA imo.
Their only close game all year happened to be against another team with a top 10 all time defense. Only gave up more than 14 points once all year
'12 bama was great but the team from '11 is the best we've ever had
