Is 25 Indiana better than 95 Nebraska?

BTW, for all the talk about how old Indiana's roster is, Miami is actually slightly older on average

Indiana is about as good as 2015 Cockeye with slightly better skill talent. I don't think its been fully realized how much worse a top-end team is now vs pre-NIL.

2022 Georgia was the last team in an echelon that will probably never be tapped again. 2019 LSU before that was the last team that can be compared to all the teams throughout history

In response to the OP, no.

They’re significantly better than any Nebraska team since maybe 2001, but I have no doubt the ’95 Huskers win if not dominate an actual game.

Honestly it’s getting to be too long ago to compare to modern teams. Lots of rule changes. All the competition has optimized nutrition and strength training. Unlike back then where there was just a handful of teams that even looked like the same species as us.

What I will say is if Indiana completes the 16-0 season it will be a lot more impressive than any of our natty runs. There is really no shame in that. It would probably be the most impressive single season ever given their history.
