Who was the best team we played in 2025?

[simplycanes]

Ole Miss was a lot better than people think. I think they are 1A and 1B with Indiana.

 

[bolivar]

We were playing our best football when Indiana beat us. They were the only team in that playoff run that we couldn’t bully in the trenches.

 

[DerekDohrman]

the ole miss game is fooling some people.

we dropped 4 gimme int’s. that game was alot closer than it should have been. it was an outlier game.

the best teams we played were ohio st, indiana, and notre dame. with texas a&m behind them

 

[Brains]

Indiana by far.

 

[Gables Cane]

Taint.
Indiana
ND

 

[Notsince1985]

Bethune-Cookman

 

[QuattroCane]

I’m going with Ole Miss. Surprised at all the Indiana votes honestly, if not for a fluke blocked kick we beat them IMO, whereas the clock simply ran out on Ole Miss.

 

[BoxingRobes]

Indiana and Notre Dame.

Unpopular opinion but Ole Miss, I wasnt as nervous during a game vs anyone as much as I was of them. I for sure thought we lost that game.

Its the flip side of the Indiana game, Beck leads a GW drive vs throws a pick. Funny enough i kept telling my buddy during the Ole mIss game that Beck was going to cost us and throw a pick on the last drive.

We played like crap against them and still won, but I agree that their scheme was the scariest to prepare for.

I’ve heard people say different things so I’m curious.

The easy answer is Indiana but we had three losses and didn’t play as well in the losses as we did in some of the wins.

Well ****….then it’s obvious
1. SMU
2. UL
3. Indiana
4. USF
5. ND

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Hate saying it, but Notre Dame. The only team I wouldn't feel 100 % confident about playing more than once last season.

-OSU and it’s not close. Ryan Day held that team back.
-Ole Miss was the toughest matchup.

“Were” being the key word. But we did not play our best football against Indiana. Too slow to adjust on offense, bad penalties, soft coverage in the first half allowed them to keep our defense on the field and bad special teams.

And while we may not have “bullied them” we were clearly the better team up front on both sides of the ball. Held them to under 3 YPC and we were over 5

 

[We’reBeckCane]

Indiana and Notre Dame.

This

 

[Miami04]

Indiana the best overall, no one was more prepared or better coached.

Ohio State was the most talented.

Ole Miss had the best scheme in regard to offense and ability to put up points.

Really can’t say much more

 

[doctor dingleberry]

OSU was pretty nasty we just played unbelievable against them

 

[skeeter]

.

OSU and Indy are very close.

 

[E1k]

Indiana

Ole miss the best offense but there defense was so bad. Osu even with that talent didn’t look to be on our level imo, we should have scored more but that just wasn’t our philosophy

 

[KrazyCane]

Indiana
Ole Miss
Louisville

* imo Louisville fully healthy is a playoff team and could beat Texas Tech Oregon or Ole Miss any given Saturday..
