Tenn had a 2 score lead in that Florida game too .  Then the sky crashed on them in the swamp.

Someone didn't vote for UNL in 1995....????
They didn't fare to well once teams were required to earn it on the field instead of just whooping up on their little sisters.

Vols up 30-14 late in the 2nd quarter....then Florida goes on a 48-0 run.  Bad ass.

Yeah, your input is really valuable.
You'd be the only jackass not voting Rivera into the HOF.  
Just because.

Name-calling aside, why have a poll if there is only one right answer?

2 - contrarian - noun - a person who opposes or rejects popular opinion

Well at least I learned what my stance was on Geraldo getting into the HoF.

....can anybody else make sense of this?
I wasn't AT the Fiesta Bowl, but I know alot of people who were and they're pretty sure that an actual football game took place on the field. But maybe not...?

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.   Beating 4 top 10 teams 49-18 on avg.  There's not much to discuss here.

Big 8 finished w 4 in top 10 and handled their bowl opp.  I know this isn't considerate of bowl games but the Big 8 was no joke.

1995 Nebraska was an All Time Great Team.  We can't know who WOULD have won, but it's obvious who SHOULD have won.

This year is open and shut, even though 3-4 other teams were also very good and could have won in some other year.

I don't think there was as dominant a season at Nebraska had that year over the past 50 years.

That UT v UF game was fascinating.  Not often a season ends and the final #2 and #3 teams have allowed 62 points in a game.

Oh. For this exercise voters are asked to ignore the Bowl games. Thus your data point is not relevant.
