It's pretty much the consensus of every publication that '95 Nebraska was the best college football team ever.

They played four different teams that ended the year ranked in the top 7 - and they beat them all by 23 points or more.

Florida was 12-0 going into the National Championship game that year - they went 9-0 in the SEC - beating every single SEC team by double digits - and beating the pre-season #1 Florida State team by double digits in non-confrence as well. Nebraska beat them by 38 points in the title game.

The '94 Nebraska team won the national title by 7 over Miami. They basically kept running up the middle right at Warren Sapp and Ray Lewis. Those were the toughest college football teams I've ever remember watching.
