A National Championship without even winning your division is so far below what Nebraska accomplished its ridiculous. The amount of luck involved in these last 2 "championships" is laughable. You needed other teams to trip over their own feet for you to even get in the game in 2 straight years.

Nebraska simply WON ALL THEIR GAMES.

Here are the rankings of teams Nebraska beat in their undefeated seasons:

1994: (2, 3, 13, 16, 24)
1995: (2, 7, 8, 10)
1997: (2, 3, 14, 17)

Nebraska beat the #2 ranked team in all 3 seasons, and the #3 ranked team twice. So there goes that argument. They played tough schedules, period.

They went undefeated 3 times, no luck needed win you win em all. Unlike Bama which lost AT HOME in each year of its last two titles.
