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.
You were too young to have seen the Turner Gill version.

I think they averaged over 9 yards on first down that entire season, mostly running the ball. That offense was insane.
