Nominees
1930 Notre Dame In the inaugural season for Notre Dame Stadium (the House that Rock built), this was Knute Rockne's last and best team. The defending national champions were led by four All-Americans and won their second consecutive national title by going 10-0 as part of a 20-game winning streak.	Head coach Knute Rockne
1945 Army Here's the team that had two Heisman Trophy winners in the backfield -- Touchdown Twins Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis. It's difficult to overstate the dominance that this team displayed in winning the 1944 and 1945 national championships: They didn't lose a game for three seasons.	Head coach Red Blaik
1956 Oklahoma The 1955 national champion Sooners of coach Bud Wilkinson were simply unbeatable … and the 1956 edition was even better. This was the apex of the era that produced the remarkable 47-game winning streak. OU destroyed its competition in '56 by an average count of 47-5.	Head coach Bud Wilkinson
1971 Nebraska The Cornhuskers wasted 11 of 12 regular-season foes by an average score of 39-8, which included a 31-7 thrashing of Top 10 foe Colorado. The other game was the never-to-be-forgotten 35-31 triumph at No. 2 Oklahoma, in one of the great games of the century.	Head coach Bob Devaney
1972 Southern California The Trojans had it all and won them all without as much of a close call -- even though half of their opponents were ranked teams … their closest call was an 18-0 result in the rain at Oregon. This team gained the rare distinction of being unanimously voted No. 1 by both the writers and coaches.	Head coach John McKay
1995 Nebraska Tom Osborne's team won its second consecutive national championship (as part of a 26-game winning streak) by blowing through a schedule that included three Top 10 teams, and then whipped No. 2 Florida in the Fiesta Bowl with an unbelievable 62-24 statement.	Head coach Tom Osborne
