With OU scoring more points than any team in history and scoring 60 points 5 straight games, if they win the national championship - I said IF - how do they rank with "the greatest teams of all time" discussion? Some of you "more experienced" coaches probably have a different take, but don't you think they deserve this kind of talk?
BTW - I am by no means an OU fan!

They have a loss, so no. If Texas wins out and beat OU are they one of the greatest teams in history? The greatest teams in history, don't lose, no matter what.

Not even in the top 50 all-time. If they win and Texas wins there may be another split national championship like with LSU and Southern Cal a few years back.

Maybe one of the best offenses of all time, but not one of the best teams. As said before, the greatest teams of all time didnt lose.

And Texas Tech Lost to Oklahoma so I think they are a very good football team but one of the greatest of all times? That might be a stretch!

Not even the best at Oklahoma. Bud Wilkinson had some guys who could play and so did Barry Switzer.

If Oklahoma wins and Texas wins and Texas Tech wins, is it a 3-way time for the National Championship? I love how everyone wants to talk about head to head and then leave Texas Tech out of the equation. Why isn't Texas Tech ranked higher than Texas in the BCS? They did beat them in the head to head. Shouldn't Tech be going to a BCS bowl over Texas?

I am a huge OU fan and this years defense is probably why I can not say this is one of the best teams of all time. Amazing offense, average defense, horrible special teams...best team means amazing everything!!

cough cough the name is University of Oklahoma cough Not only is this not the best team out of OU, this isn't even the best this decade. The 2003 offense was just as good (played better defenses), the defense was dominate, and the special teams were the best in the country*. * These statements do not apply to the big 12 title game and the national championship game

I think the 1995 Tommy Frazier led Nebraska team that smashed an undefeated Florida 62-24 in the NC game was the greatest team of all time. Being from Omaha doesn't cloud my judgement ;D.
