I was at this game, this was my senior year at KU. That was easily our best team in at least two decades, and Nebraska just waxed us. I called Nebraska as the national champ immediately after this game.
Kansas went 12-1 and won the Orange Bowl in 07 with 4-5 future NFL starters !
romeo generic season...didn't play OU or Texas didn't win the north a d only went to orange bowl by default cuz Mizzou team that beat KU got waxed a second time by OU....generic 12 -1 season as it gets
@goop 321 whatever bud. I went to a small Catholic college and not a Nebraska fanatic, but give credit where credit is due. Nebraska 1995 is by far the best team in the history of the college game.
@ApoIIo95 Who did Neb beat? Neb95 beat 1 team that beat a ranked team in their bowl. LSU 2019, beat 5.
I still am in awe that anyone picked Florida to beat Nebraska in the Fiesta Bowl. The Big Red played probably their two worst games of the year against Kansas and Oklahoma, and they still won by a combined score of 78-3. The Blackshirts were the real deal that season, and dominated Steve Spurrier's offense. Loved what Kent Pavelka said during that epic 2nd Quarter: "The Fun-n-Gun? The fun is done!!"
Washington State was their worst game
Spurrier was 11-10 lifetime in bowls. Think about it, 10 times a coach that has been hyped as a very good coach lost his last game of the season against NON SEC opponents. Impressive? Not at all.
Auburn beat Spurrier by 39 points in what is still the worst beatdown in SEC championship history (56-17). Spurrier frequently choked when it mattered.
And Nebraska had come out of a stacked Big 8 conference (Look at how Kansas, K-State, and Colorado did in their bowl games.)
@John Something I won't lie to you, though, Kansas got hosed on some of the officiating in that game that changed some of their momentum in the first half. But, you're right, NOTHING went right for the Jayhawks in this game.
Glen Mason retired with a 123-121 overall record. He had a losing season in 94 and 96. And he just got good in 95? Really, or was he playing most of the deadbeats that Neb played.
"Are you kidding me?!? That's your QUARTERBACK!!!"

Mr. College Football
The man who made it worth watching.
RIP Keith Jackson
I am SO glad I found this channel, and that you posted this game. It's one of those games you look at the box score and say "how in the hell did they win that game by 38 points against a very good team on their home field?" Of course, the answer is 27 points off of five turnovers.
Afterwards, you appreciate the greatness of the 1995 team even more.
Wish Nebraska had a scary defense like this now, could've had a 9-3 or 10-2 season last year.
Yes, but they did that with 3 turnovers of their own. They were (are) the greatest.
It was one of the most enigmatic 38-point victories I've seen after watching college football for over 35 years.
"you appreciate the greatness of the 1995 team even more." no, not at all.

@@gynandroidhead You see me all over the Neb videos. I swear when somebody keys in all the stats in to a big ole AI machine, Neb95 will not be in the top 10. Currently #4 on ESPNs top 150 of all time (Sept 2019). 1995 was a perfect storm. It's almost like there was collusion among the 3. 12-0, 10-2, 10-2, 10-2 and the rest of the sorry conference.
Eddie George didn't have a Heisman season. Tommie Frazier did.
The Heisman is a PR award more than performance.
@pretorious700 This coming from a Neb fan.
Absolutely loved ABC's CFB music back then (now, they use this canned, corporate pop rock or alt. industrial rock/hip hop mashup stuff that has nothing to do with college football). It just sounded like music to support college football. The college band sound probably helped :-)
And, while watching this game, I finally developed a couple of theories as to why the Heisman committee gave Eddie George the award that season, and not Tommie Frazier (and it's always politics): Lawrence Phillips.
1) They were punishing Frazier because of Lawrence Phillips (even after Phillips had served his suspension). They played in the same backfield. Phillips was the frontrunner for the Heisman before his suspension. Lawrence tainted, what had been, a clean program. They couldn't give the award to the next most deserving player - even, and especially - when that player played in the same backfield. So, instead of giving the Heisman to Tommie (from an undefeated team many think was one of the best CFB teams in history), they gave it to a good, but not great back on a two-loss team.
I also think Lawrence Phillips accelerated Tom Osborne's decision to retire.
2) Tommie wasn't such a great passer. And if there's one thing a Heisman-winning QB better be, it's a better-than-good passer. Few QB's in recent CFB history could equal Tommie on the run, but his passing wavered between good and awful too often. His passing is not what opposing defenses feared.
I loved the agony of da feet music in the Wide World of Sports.
Kansas, Kansas State, Colorado, against teams not named Nebraska or when not facing each other- undefeated.
I think a forgotten element of what made 1995 Nebraska so legendary- they clobbered quality teams.
Florida won a national title the following year with basically the same team.
And these 3 Big 8 teams won their bowl games decisively.
I guess Stoops was in FL in 95 playing invisible DC, right.
@@mas5867and then Rob's IQ just hit badly, might wanna look again who was DC at Florida in 95 then at the 96 team. And if I'm right, you gotta delete your channels but if you're right, I'll let you have all the wins. Stoops wasn't DC at Florida in 95, he was at Kansas State
@@sorney98 You I. Look up facetious.
@mas5867 😂🤣😂, why when I already know it? Plus look up troll, be surprised who's name beside it, oh wait yours
Kansas was a really good team. Just demonstrates Nebraska's dominance.
Bec they beat KSU and a 1st year coach at CO?
The best option offense in College football history
My God Rob "No" Johnson would have had less anti Nebraska bias than Jackson and Brandt. Especially that joke Brandt.
I (Rob) post facts.
Do you have the 1993 NU at KU game. I'm a Jayhawk, but would love to see that game.
Was that the 21-20 game?
that was the 21-20 game wasnt it? great game,KU was that close.
You mean the team FSU beat 42-0. More evidence why the right NC was crowned that year.
Nick,I don't think that game was televised.
Wow. More of Rob's great in depth analysis.
Neb (11-1) was 3 pts from being 12-0 and undefeated and 9 points from having 4 losses and prob a #18 ranking.
FSU (12-1) was 8 pts from being 13-0 and undefeated and 35 points from having 4 losses and prob a #18 ranking.
FSU gets brownie points for winning 1 more game and winning the head to head with Neb.
So, once again, the football gods got it right. FSU should have finished ranked higher than Neb.
Oh, one more thing.
SOS
FSU 21st
NEB 23rd
Another 2 pt win and Rob walks away laughing.
The final year of the Big 8 Conference.
Yes, and half of the conference finished in the top ten. It was a great way for the Big 8 to go out.
With regards to the conference, what's even more amazing is that Colorado, Kansas, and Kansas State all finished with 10-2 records. Besides all three of these teams losing to Nebraska, they all lost their only other game between themselves (Colorado lost to Kansas, Kansas lost to Kansas State, and Kansas State lost to Colorado).
Along with this game, the other significant game was the home game vs. Washington State which they won 35-21. This game has some of the worst stats they had all year in a game against a team which was the best 3-8 team I've seen in major college football for quite some time (go look at their schedule and you'll see why).
gynandroidhead And of course all these Big 8 teams won their bowl games by huge margins
@@gynandroidhead Yeah WSU was awesome. I looked at first game. They lost to an eventual 9 loss Pitt team.
How silly and typical for a NEB fan to paint an opponent up. WSU finished with 8 losses, period.
@@gynandroidhead "It was a great way for the Big 8 to go out." More fairy dust for Osborne's 60-3 run.
@@robjohnson8861 Thanks again for your thought-provoking commentary.
That was a pretty good Kansas team played Nebraska as well as anyone that year.
This was the best team on the planet.

I agree that Frasier should have won the Heisman, but it's also hard to dismiss the season Eddie George had.
I was there!
me too
cold as hell
Funny how at 10:12 the announcer says the return man is looking into the sun. That's hard to do when it's behind you. Look at his shadow, almost directly in front of him. I guess he did correct himself at 11:07.
KU used up too much energy too early. You have to do what Nebraska does. Come out flat but get stronger into the 4th quarter. 😅
Interesting that in the third quarter the Kansas defense--which was on the field in the first half only half as long as the Nebraska defense--was "getting tired." The Nebraska defense apparently wasn't. Go figure.
I'd be hard pressed to find a game in which Tomich played that he didn't commit at least one personal foul. He was a head hunter, always hitting the quarterbacks up around the neck and head. I don't understand why Charlie McBride didn't get on him.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good to see that the Refs cheated for Nebraska like they do for Bama now, and for Kansas in basketball.
Good to see they let retards use the computer at the mental hospital
Different games by the halfs
