  Let's go back to college. I saw that you had posted on this.
• 0:04
  Paul Finbaum had mentioned this was back last year. The ninety five Nebraska football
• 0:09
  team was probably the best of all time. It was his opinion. You
• 0:12
  said that you leaned nineteen seventy one Nebraska as the most dominant of all relative
• 0:16
  you know, up to the field of any giving your nineteen ninety five is
• 0:20
  number six on your all time list. That ninety five team was unbelievable.
• 0:25
  When you look at you know, and I know you've kind of chalked through
• 0:28
  a lot of this and done a lot of work on you know, best
• 0:31
  teams as far as era's best team, as far as so you have the
• 0:34
  nineteen seventy one team as the most dominant team of all time? Is that
• 0:37
  correct? Yeah? So the way that I would phrase that, Jake,
• 0:40
  and I don't have my list right in front of me at the moment,
• 0:42
  but the way I would list or phrase it is the nineteen seventy one Nebraska
• 0:47
  team. This is per my historical k Ford power rating, they graded out
• 0:52
  better than any other team in the history of college football, going all the
• 0:56
  way back to eighteen sixty nine. I've got estimated power rates for every team
• 0:59
  that's ever played at the highest level of college football. Nineteen seventy one,
• 1:02
  Nebraska granted out higher than any others. What that means is in the year
• 1:06
  nineteen seventy one, Nebraska was more dominant against the field that year than any
• 1:12
  other team has been in the history of college football relative to the field that
• 1:17
  given year. Again for my power rating, because in nineteen seventy one,
• 1:21
  if I remember correctly, Nebraska has wins over the number two, number three,
• 1:26
  and number four power rated teams in that nineteen seventy one year. I
• 1:30
  want to say it was Colorado, Oklahoma, and Alabama. I think maybe
• 1:34
  in a bowl game it might have been at Nebraska be all those teams,
• 1:37
  and those teams were two, three, four in some order in my power
• 1:40
  ratings from nineteen seventy one. So to me, nineteen seventy one Nebraska the
• 1:44
  most dominant team relative to the competition face in that year of all time for
• 1:48
  my power ratings. Nineteen ninety five, Nebraska, which as Paul Feimom pointed
• 1:51
  out, you know, going back earlier in the year, was is his
• 1:53
  quote best team of all time. They came out number six for me,
• 1:57
  I believe on that list of all time unquote best or most dominant college football team
