Man Nebraska had top notch heisman caliber option QB's for a decade straight in Frazier, Frost, and Crouch! 3 of the top 10 option QB in college history for my $.
@@themadlad8540 In the 70s & 80s, those OU QBs were the standard for "Option QBs"; in the 90s, though, there were none better than Frazier, Frost and Crouch. Scott Frost, in particular, had a swagger about him (prob. because he was actually booed by NU fans in '96). And then, Eric Crouch won a Heisman as an Option QB (which was unheard of), and Tommie Frazier deserved a Heisman.
Well, cavecookie, that is my hunch. Another couple of seasons at UCF and he'll have some solid Florida connections to bring to UN. It will be very interesting. So what do YOU think, cavecookie?
I am in agreement. I don't know about you, but I will be watching him very closely at UCF. I don't know if it means anything, but judging from Oregon's season last year, Frost was missed. If I had to guess, I'd say Riley is here for another 3-4 years, and in the meantime, Scott can get some experience. In my little fantasy world, I like to believe that the deal is already settled, and everything is in place. What the hell...if you're gonna dream, dream big! LOL. What about the upcoming '17 season? Can Riley keep it going? I was generally happy with last year, but I will NEVER get used to those blow-out losses, and our wins were less than spectacular, and with all the new youngsters coming in this year, I have no guess...we could go 10-2, or 2-10, or anywhere in between. Hurry up, September!!
Yeah, I have thought the same things as well. I don't think any Husker fan, especially those of us who witnessed the superior teams of the 80's and late 90's, will ever get used to the blowout losses that have plagued this program for the last decade and a half. Hopefully Riley and Co. have a few tricks up their sleeve for the next couple seasons.
Well, it looks like Riley is willing to do what needs to be done. I'll bet it was tough for him to fire Banker, but We needed some changes there. And, I like how Riley & Co. are recruiting, and reviving the walk-on program. Those walk-ons were a great source of some outstanding players over the years...our ace in the hole. Like most Husker fans, I was surprised at the choice of Riley, but he is making some very positive changes, and I am optimistic that we are on the right track...finally! GBR!
You mean the crew that ran up the score on really bad teams and QBs known for blowing big games in an attempt to make the difference something that the pollsters should value. Beating bad teams by a lot proves how bad the bad teams are, that's all.
@@robjohnson8861 michigan would have been stomped be for real guy. I am not a cornsucker fan but michigan wasn't any where near the caliber of this nebraska team.
60-3 from 93-97. 55-1 regular season! 37-0 reg season conference record. 1 lose in 5 seasons and undefeated conference record! Never again. And really a missed FG in 93 vs FSU , and 4th down stop in 96 vs texas from running the table !
Rob Johnson you do realize he beat him twice during the run dipshit. Saban said he learned more of the college from Osborne than any other college coach. You say one bad thing about Osborne to Saban, he’ll kick you ass, guarantee!
LOL. The Texas game (cough, loss) was a 3 pt game with 2.31 left until Makovic COMPLETELY OWNED OZZY on a 4th and 1 that turned into a 61 yd gain. Ozzy on his last breath will sit straight up and say "F Mackovic." I guarantee it.
I know Colorado was good in 2001 and had 10 wins in 2016. But always felt these 1997 Uniforms were a jinx (because fucking Nike at times) but realistically McCartney's wealth of talent ran out on Neuheisel after 2 years and they've never been the same since.
@@sorney98 I trash Saban too. Think about the NCs that the SEC has won in the last 16 years when Bama has not even been in the mix too. The SEC has ruled the rest of college and Saban happened to be apart of it. LSU 2004 was a joke getting to play OU. KSU 35-7, the game before. Coach O (LSU 2019) will now own the best team ever for decades. Coach O??? Maybe he found himself. Rob seriously doubts that. Parity reeks.
It would have sucked for these Colorado players to have their coach, Steve "Crybaby" Spurrier, Jr., er, I mean, Rick Neuheisel, pin all of their hopes for a good season all on one game. Instead of providing gameplans and inspiration toward the other five games they lost that year. Their head coach was stomping about yelling eff-bombs and their fans chanting obscenities in unison on national TV. These kids had plenty of talent, but they were let down.
@@robjohnson8861 Losing is considered a great finish? They're supposed to get a reward just for knocking Nebraska from the top of a meaningless poll? Oh no, we lost some votes. Votes are meaningless. Games are what count. Beating number 3. in a blowout is what counts. Nebraska won the NC. They got the trophy. No one in Nebraska is going to lose sleep over some stupid votes. As for Colorado, they lost, so if they felt the way you do, which I doubt considering the crying and whining and swearing on the sideline at the end, then they would be even more of a loser like you. Not surprising a loser like you would have this take. See you on the next Nebraska video. Thing is, I check out these videos as a fan, in my spare time, when I'm not working and creating. I actually do a lot to try to make this world better. You for some reason go out of your way just to troll and clearly do nothing good for this world, but you pretend to be connected to Alabama so you can fantasize about being great but you haven't worked a day in your life. Sorry to hit you with more reality.
@@dadestarmysteries255 The reality is, in 97 MI was 3 votes from an outright NC, Neb was 31 votes from an outright NC. Ask any 4th grader who most thought deserved the be the NC. Get back with me on what they say.
Rob Johnson and what grade level are you? Kindergarten? Both teams deserved it, but ask anyone who is smart enough to blend why the BCS and playoff was created. The Big 10-PAC-10(12) not wanting to lose the Rose Bowl.
@@sorney98 i would love to take your money. You're a lying sack of HS if you claim the majority of any group of people would claim Neb deserved the NC more than a team that won more votes by 10 times more.
If you bet money on every game on the on this year your make more than you lose in my opinion your least go Because he's a lease playing The most games you could play is 15 so if you went 15 and oh I think he's covering the spread at leastAnd the least amount of times you could play is 13 and I think you would cover at least 10 of those games so if you put even $100 each game you're still profit then$300 over the years for betting on Dion's Dion Doesn't loose he's very confident and his confidence is rubbing off on his players and they're starting to believe and when you start to believe that's when championships happen I wanna be shocked if they want it all this year
That is the exact reason Scott will never get the team to greatness. Sometimes you have to get down their throats. When have you ever seen Scott do that? Compare Ozzy to Switzer on the sideline.
It kind of baffles me how Nebraska never was able to get a 5-star or NFL caliber receiver throughout the ‘90s and Solich years. He literally would have gotten 1 on 1 man coverage on EVERY SINGLE offensive snap. You would’ve thought Osborne and Solich could’ve sold this concept to recruits. Demarious Thomas(RIP) chose Georgia Tech during the Paul Johnson era for that very reason. Got 1-on-1 EVER SINGLE offensive snap and the rest was history.
This game cost Neb the AP NC. Watch the last 6 mins of the game and ask yourself did Neb get "style points" that it needed or better yet, did it blow the style points it had leading by 17.
Rob Johnson gee and what do you do? Sit in mama’s basement and keep comment on videos? While actual people click on these videos to enjoy themselves taking a break from the real world. Oh by the way, I’ll be sure to let my crew of fire fighters, emts and paramedics know that you think that we work a shitty job.
Rob Johnson you know what’s even more funny, people actually liking my comments and yet keep bashing you. So tell me, who do the people actually respect again? What do you say to that dumbass?
