Texas A&M was much better than their record. Offense was incredible
in 1996. McKenzie & Jenkins alone make that offense lethal & legit. 1996 over 2024 by a longshot.

Comparing 2024 to 1996

I'd say the 2 salient points that give 1996 the edge in my mind are the defensive talent and future NFL players

Secondary was descent? They were the absolute best

And don't forget Dustin Johnson at TE/RB, another NFL talent.

That’s easy to say now but may not be in a few years

I was front and center for the 1996 season and 2024 was a better team

1996 had one of the most efficient QB seasons of all time. 2024 was a QB away. There is no argument that Sark>JR and

And Qb is exponentially more important than 1/22.

it's kinda nonsense though when that stat includes horrible Ok St, AZ, and UCF as 2024 power teams

Not really when you think we almost lost to New Mexico in 1996

That's not a fair comparison because 96 had to play the schedule they had.

Who is to say that our offense including Sark isn’t much much worse against the competition 2024 team played?

Just saying comparing records against hypothetical schedules assumes too much

There's more "depth" on the 24 team but the offense in 96 is clearly

Lol. We're going to fault the 96 squad for being in the WAC? Get a grip.

1996 was the better team. 2024 had the more impressive season.

I would agree with this. I think ‘96 and ‘24 defenses were very even. Better receivers on ‘24, push on the RBs and

Push on RBs? Great group of guys on this year's team, but not a one of them

Was just gonna say the same thing. McKenzie and Jenkins are both better than 24
The Dark Knight
Jan 14, 1:20pm
All four RBs that played most of our games are better than Johnson/Atuia. McKenzie and LJ are a push, Jenkins might

With all due respect, the RBs on the 96 team were far superior to the 24 team

Johnson was an NFL player whose NFL career was stopped because of concussions.

McKenzie & Jenkins are far far superior to LJ Martin & Moa.

Not even close. 1996 had an elite offense.

I give props to 1996 because they had a much better offense.

96 offense was better at nearly every position. 24 defense is better
The Dark Knight
Jan 14, 1:09pm
The offense would look worse against 2024 competition
2FarGone
Jan 14, 1:14pm
But they'd still be better

96 defense was better. That defense had the two best lockdown
