We're No. 5!

And in this case...that's pretty darn good!
Nebraska finished fifth on ESPN's all-time football program prestige rankings, which gauged team success, individual success and NFL Draft picks. It wasn't a perfect system, but one that took a few more variables into account.
Oklahoma was No. 1 overall - a fair assessment, in our eyes. You win as many games as OU did from 1950s-1980s, then kickstart the program again in 2000, it's probably deserved.
The Huskers beat Texas, though!
