I must say, that is going to right near the top if it isn't.

1995 Nebraska Cornhuskers. Tommy Frazier and Lawrence Phillips ran over everybody.

1994 Penn State team...

Even though they were snubbed of the national title.

USC Trojans 2004-2006

1 loss

Not a team I ever seen...but '61 Bama was 11-0 and outscored opponents an average of 27-3....only gave up 25 points on the year. To me, that would have to qualify as the best.

If that's a standard you're judging by, I'd take the 39 UT team. They didn't allow a point the whole regular season. They gave up 14 in their bowl game.

That Bama team gave up 25 including their Bowl game...plus, by that time football was in the modern era...IMO, it's tough to beat that. Here's their schedule and results:

Bama 32 at Georgia 6
Bama 9 Tulane 0
Bama 35 at Vanderbilt 6
Bama 26 North Carolina St.
Bama 34 Tennessee 3*
Bama 17 at Houston (TX)0
Bama 24 Mississippi St. 0
Bama 66 Richmond 0
Bama 10 Georgia Tech 0*
Bama 34 Auburn 0*
Bama 10 Arkansas 3 (Sugar Bowl)

8= Played in Birmingham

Season Totals

Bama 297 Opponent 25

I'd take giving up 14 for a season over that. Modern era or not, it wasn't like the UT team was a modern team facing one from the stone ages. It was still on even playing levels.
