1997: This was the year when Michigan's defense was suffocating opponents, Nebraska was closing the curtain on Tom Osborne's legendary career, and the biggest debate in America wasn't whether Jack could have fit on the door in Titanic—it was whether Michigan or Nebraska deserved to be called national champion. Back then, the Bowl Alliance was supposed to help college football crown a true No. 1. Spoiler alert: it didn't. Because while Michigan was celebrating a Rose Bowl victory over Washington State, Nebraska was dismantling Tennessee in the Orange Bowl. The polls split. The trophies split. And one of the greatest arguments in college football history was born. Meanwhile, Titanic was breaking box-office records, people were tying up the family phone line to connect to the internet, but today… we're rewriting history. Let’s build the bracket: Michigan Wolverines Nebraska Cornhuskers Tennessee Volunteers Florida State Seminoles UCLA Bruins Florida Gators North Carolina Tar Heels Washington State Cougars Ohio State Buckeyes Kansas State Wildcats Penn State Nittany Lions Colorado State Rams (18) First team out: Georgia Bulldogs Links mentioned in this episode: **Join our free private group https://www.facebook.com/groups/benandtravis Get our free ebook "28 Days of Focused Living" here: https://www.benandtravis.com https://www.facebook.com/groups/benandtravis Reframing Hope Book: https://www.benandtravis.com/books For extra content and material you can use for your family or ministry go to https://www.patreon.com/benandtravis Represent the show: https://www.benandtravis.com/store Helping Healing Humor with Ben and Travis: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/helping-healing-humor/id1457601152 The Friday ReFresh: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-friday-refresh/id1611969995 Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dislike/support Co-Producers: Justin B., Doris C., Rhonda F., Scott K., Mary H., Scott B.

Great Scott… the flux capacitor is charged, the DeLorean is idling, and we’ve punched in a new destination: the 1996 college football season. This was the year Danny Wuerffel turned the Fun ’n Gun into a full-blown football flamethrower, Steve Spurrier finally climbed the mountain in Gainesville, and the Florida Gators football got their long-awaited shot at revenge against Florida State Seminoles football after that regular season classic in Tallahassee. Back then, college football still lived in the strange world of bowl alliances, poll voters, and “well… we think these are the two best teams.” Spoiler alert: nobody really knew. Because while Florida and Florida State were throwing haymakers, teams all across the country were left wondering what might’ve happened if they’d gotten a shot in a real playoff.

Great Scott… the flux capacitor is charged, the DeLorean is idling, and we’ve punched in a new destination: the 1995 college football season. This was the year Tommie Frazier stopped knocking on the door and kicked it down, turning the Nebraska Cornhuskers football into an absolute juggernaut. It was the year Danny Wuerffel and the Fun ’n Gun were lighting up scoreboards. Meanwhile, Toy Story was showing us the future of animation, Friends was dominating Thursday nights, and Hootie & the Blowfish was playing on every radio in America. We’re taking the entire 1995 season and dropping it straight into the modern 12-team College Football Playoff. and a postseason gauntlet that might be the only thing capable of slowing down Tommie Frazier in full stride. So grab your controller, hit reset, and press start… Because the 1995 season just unlocked a brand-new level and is about to find out if dominance survives the playoff era.

Great Scott… the flux capacitor is charged, the DeLorean is idling, and we’ve punched in a new destination: the 1994 college football season. This was the year Tommie Frazier took control of college football, Danny Wuerffel was lighting it up in the Fun ’n Gun, and the biggest debate in America was how in the world you split a national championship between Nebraska Cornhuskers football and Penn State Nittany Lions football… when both looked unbeatable. Back then, the system still leaned on bowls, polls, and a whole lot of hoping things would sort themselves out. Spoiler alert: they didn’t. Because while Nebraska was surviving Miami in the Orange Bowl, Penn State was dismantling Oregon in the Rose Bowl… and somewhere, college football fans were left arguing in living rooms, on call-in shows, and probably while trying to figure out how to rewind their VCR without recording over the game. Meanwhile, Forrest Gump was reminding everyone that life is unpredictable, Friends was saying “I’ll be there for you,” and Green Day was blasting through speakers as college football barreled toward a future it wasn’t quite ready for. But today… we’re rewriting history. We’re taking the entire 1994 season and dropping it straight into the modern 12-team College Football Playoff. No split championships. No poll politics. No “well they never got their shot.” Just twelve teams… a bracket… and the kind of postseason gauntlet that would make Tom Osborne finally breathe easy… or sweat just a little bit more. So grab your Starter jacket, set the VCR, and don’t touch that dial… Because the 1994 season is about to see what happens when the past meets the future. Roads? Where we’re going… we don’t need roads.

Great Scott… the flux capacitor is charged, the DeLorean is idling, and we’re about to punch in a new destination: the 1993 college football season. This was the year when Charlie Ward was winning the Heisman, Tommie Frazier was just getting warmed up in Lincoln, and the biggest postseason controversy in America was whether Notre Dame Fighting Irish football beating Florida State Seminoles football actually meant… you know… they should be ranked ahead of them. Back then, the Bowl Coalition was supposed to fix everything. Spoiler alert: it didn’t. Meanwhile Jurassic Park was teaching America that scientists shouldn’t play God… and college football executives were teaching America they absolutely would. But today, we’re rewriting history. We’re taking the entire 1993 season and dropping it into the modern 12-team College Football Playoff. No bowl tie-ins. No backroom voting rooms. No “well technically they’re number one in the coaches poll.” Just twelve teams… a bracket… and the kind of postseason chaos that would make Steve Spurrier dial up another Fun ’n Gun touchdown just to run up the score. So grab your Starter jacket, rewind the VHS, and get ready… Because the 1993 season is about to see the future. Roads? Where we’re going… we don’t need roads. Florida State Seminoles (ACC Champions) Nebraska Cornhuskers (Big 8 Champions) West Virginia Mountaineers (Big East Champions) Notre Dame Fighting Irish Tennessee Volunteers (Auburn was on probation) Texas A&M Aggies (SWC Champions) Florida Gators (SEC Champions) Wisconsin Badgers (Big Ten Champions) Miami Hurricanes Ohio State Buckeyes North Carolina Tar Heels Fresno State Bulldogs (WAC Champions) First Out- 12.

Nerds, Numbers and A Time Machine Great Scott… we’ve officially built a time machine. Today, we’re firing up the flux capacitor, jumping back to the 1992 college football season, and dropping it straight into the modern College Football Playoff. No polls. No crystal balls. Just a 12-team bracket, cold hard numbers, and a whole lot of alternate-history chaos. Would the champs still be champs? Would legends survive the gauntlet? And what happens when you tell 1992, “You’re about to see the future”?We’re simulating the entire 1992–93 postseason using today’s playoff rules. Roads? Where we’re going… we don’t need roads.
