    Thank you very much for another memorable game upload. I vividly remember this game. Nebraska was talented, tough, deep, well-coached and determined. Just too much for Texas A&M that day. GBR!

    This Nebraska team is overlooked all time behind the '94 & '95 teams, but this team was awesome. This game was their lowest rushing output of the season and they still finished with 340 yards on the ground. The '95 team averaged 7.0 yds/carry as a team which is an NCAA record, but this team wasn't far behind them at 6.4/carry. I wish this would have been a year later so they could have beat the brakes off Michigan in the BCS.

      *" I wish this would have been a year later so they could have beat the brakes off Michigan in the BCS."*
      what did 98 have to do with anything? And if you were talking about 98, MI finished 12th, Neb 19th. Yeah, sure, Neb would have been the brakes off of MI alright.
      Re *"The '95 team averaged 7.0 yds/carry as a team which is an NCAA record"*
      Please find another reigning NC team that began there season with this level of competition
      Day 1 of 95, Osborne faced
      5 - 1st yr coaches
      4 - coaches with a losing record at the school they were currently coaching at
      2 - coaches with a winning record at the blah, blah, by a total of 7 games.
      So what Neb set a rushing record, any reigning NC would have too with the patsy FING schedule.

      @@robjohnson8861 in the 97 season bowls….NU beat the breaks off of the SEC champion Tennessee squad with Peyton Manning at the helm and jammal lewis at running back and Michigan barely beat a WSU team led by Ryan Leaf
      In 98 Nebraska had a new head coach….new qb….most of their starters gone and we completely lackluster ….I’ll give you that, but we aren’t talking about 98
      We are talking about an offensive backfield with two 1,000 yard rushers and if memory serves an 800+ yard fullback AND an Outland award winner on the OL in 97 and they began the year with what most of us believed was a rebuilding year on defense ending up being a top ten defensive squad
      You have so much Nebraska hate sir and you forget that every major conference had parity issues all over the country until they adjusted recruiting and academic rules to make many of them viable
      Rules, I might add that were designed by NU rivals to adversely affect us like the gray shirt rule and the BS demands that Texas forced the Big 12 to accept AFTER the conference saved them and A and M when the SWC conference folded
      Get some facts right ….most major conferences had two really good teams and the rest were complete fodder unless you wouldn’t mind sharing the name of any conference that was loaded top to bottom before 2002?
      Big 12 had five really great programs even K State was good in 97
      You’re lauding a Michigan team that was the perennial power at the big ten usually coupled with a two or three loss penn state every once in a while and a pre urban Meyer OSU

      You are trying really hard to find a flaw in a nearly flawless team and you expect too much from 20 year old men if they ‘barely beat a sub par team’ (paraphrasing you) then they are simply not that good ? Missouri was a sub par team in 97 but they had more heart and more fight than Michigan ever had that year
      Nebraska got a lot of teams’ best games in 97
      Culpepper at UCF almost upset us that year…we had to beat Missouri in overtime etc etc
      But we also dominated a one loss KSU team that was stacked ….went into Washington and beat a favored husky squad …destroyed a powerful TAMU team ….we can only play the teams that are scheduled
      What we do in the bowl games and championship games tells the real story
      Championship games that either the coaches or the writers decide if we are good enough for
      Seems to me like you are suggesting that hundreds of voters were just giving NU a charity NC nod in 93, 94, 95, and 97
      All four of those years still gave us the same teams from the big 8 / 12 so I guess we just had them all fooled

    I recall watching most of this game while TV shopping at Best Buy😊. Frost really ran the offense like a head coach with wheels. Great player; questionable coach. Bobby Newcombe was such a spark plug for that team. Throw in Ahman Green’s rock-solid skills behind the quality line… they were a terrific squad that year. Yes, we are VERY aware that this was our last championship team🥹. Holding onto hope.

    How dominant were the Cornhuskers during their Five Year Reign Of Terror? In 63 games you can recount individually the games they lost. The shocking loss to Arizona State. The Phantom defeat to Florida State, after being ripped blind by the officials. The Big 12 Championship loss to Texas. THAT'S IT!!! A 60-3 record in Tom Osbornes glorious five year finale. Unequaled and unapproached. TO THIS DAY. No program before or since could match it. What was their secret? POWER. SPEED. DEPTH. Even Alabama and Georgia today couldn't control the line of scrimmage as Nebraska could. Not the Miami Hurricanes of the early 2000s either. The team to which they are often compared. If you really want to dominate and separate yourself, Decimate the scrimmage line. That, coupled with unparalleled depth, separated them from any College Team ever. After this destruction, the Cornhuskers pulverized Peyton Manning and Tennessee in the Orange Bowl, 42-17!! The Wolverines of Michigan, who shared the Title with Nebraska that season, were lucky there was no playoff system in place. THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN CRUSHED!!! Any argument to the contrary was lunacy. The most dominant FIVE YEAR STRETCH in College Football History. As the late great Tina Turner sang, "SIMPLY THE BEST. BETTER THAN ALL THE REST!!!"
