In his mailbag, Stewart has a great retort:

In your list of program-changing losses, how could you forget the game that sent the most dominating program of the 1990s spinning down the toilet? Nebraska’s undefeated 2001 regular season culminated in a 62-36 whupping by Colorado, followed by another blowout in the national championship game by Miami, and you know the rest of the story … totally destroyed one of the greatest dynasties in college football history.
–Bret, Omaha, Neb.

I agree to an extent, but let’s not kid ourselves. The Huskers rebounded to post a 10-win season just two years later.

Colorado and Miami did not destroy the Nebraska dynasty. destroyed the Nebraska dynasty.

Bravo!
