When Nebraska Ruled.....I miss those days.
So it did happen right? I did not dream it? Seems like a world away.” Touchdown touchdown. Touchdown!” GBR!
That defensive touchdown by the Jason Peter was the true definition of what the Black Shirts were all about in the 90s.
does anyone has extra copies of that game on kmtv-3 Omaha cbs or have any other Nebraska football game recorded onvhsvcrtapes from 1970-2020 51 years ? email me at 879 unclebob@gmail.com
Yeah, the good old days. Hopefully Frost gets them going this year. Since it is year three, I am hopeful.
@@IanPrino hopeful *3 meets reality 3.1, OSU trounces Neb.
@@robjohnson8861 yeah tough first game of the year.
@@robjohnson8861 Rob, if you want to say Nebraska is not great anymore - I'm with you. If you want to say they weren't great in the 90's you are a total idiot, the type of idiot that can't be cured. the 1995 Nebraska team was among the all time greats. Also, Nebraska's legendary run was even greater than it seemed. If not for a series of calls that went FSU's way in the 1994 Orange Bowl, Nebraska's winning streak would not have been 26 but 39...........THIRTY NINE!!!!!!!!!!!!..............and they would have won three straight national titles. As it stands they did win three in four years - 1994, 1995, and 1997.
I remember when Nebraska was this great. And this was after the Tommie Frazier era.
Big shoulder pads, fullbacks and no ugly helmets. Now this IS football!
Here here! Rather!
Love the days of seeing nebraska opponents with hands on their HIPS!!!
The V tech cheerleaders in maroon spandex on the sidelines r so hot!!
A rare coaching matchup: Frank Beamer vs Tom Osborne
We had Drunkenmiller here in S.F.
I liked him a lot better than Detmer, and wanted the club to keep him and let him develop, but I didn't have any company.
He had personal issues including a rape charge. For what it's worth I too thought he'd be good in the nfl.
Nebraska had ZERO interest in playing in that game.
Did you pull that out of your ass with one hand or two?
@@robjohnson8861 idk, why don’t let us know when you pull your head out of your ass
In order to secure tickets to the national championship game, Nebraska fans bought packages before the Big XII Championship. After all, Nebraska was 10-1, with the lone loss coming to a very hot Arizona State team on the road early in the season. Texas was 7-4, and coach John Mackovic was on the hot seat. When Nebraska lost to Texas, fans didn't go out in large numbers to buy Orange Bowl tickets. They even say at the beginning of the broadcast that few Husker fans were in attendance.
While I wouldn't say Nebraska had no interest in the game, they undoubtedly were disappointed to be playing there.
Nebraska(B1G) vs. Virginia Tech(ACC) in 1996 Orange Bowl 🍊
Nebraska was Big 12 at the time.
And Va Tech was in the Big East at the time
I forgot how bad Frost's passing was
He was terrible. I have never seen a worse throwing motion.
Scott Frost was a grown man!!
Except when Phillips starting beating up his girlfriend in his presence. There has to be more to this story. Did Scott know Osborne would have been furious if scott did anything to Phillips?
Rob Johnson did you email your findings to Nebraska?
@@Dollar-zb2ik what?
@@Dollar-zb2ik I thought so.
@@robjohnson8861 you dumba$$, not everyone is on here like you are 24/7/365.
Nebraska had no reliable receivers.
Sure seem that when they couldn't score against ASU earlier in the year.
Because they were known for blocking 90% of the time lol, maybe actually look at the style of offense they ran lol
@@robjohnson8861 or maybe because ASU was actually a good team that game and that season. Man what a pathetic no brain boy you are.
The top receiver Brendan Holbein had only 23 catches. That would have placed him as tied for 7th in touches as a running back. Holbein and Vedral had decent hands, but they weren't especially quick, and at 5'9" and 5'11" respectively, they weren't the types of receivers who could spread the field and battle for catches.
@@texaswunderkind but the thing is back in those days, they were known as the best blocking WR's, they would catch some but not much
👍👍👍
History Lesson 224. Beamer: 3rd on the list of most bowl losses for coaches with a losing bowl record. Who did Osborne beat his last 4 bowls again?. Say what! Coaches with a combined 35-38 lifetime bowl record. 60-3 run. Ha!
More idiocy from rob "30 IQ" Johnson, the little man without a team. Poor loser.
3 national titles... 3
@@johnphillips9935 Outright national championships: 2.
Michigan 3 votes from outright
Neb 31 votes from outright.
@@johnphillips9935 His Nebraska corn huskers battled Bobby Bowden and his Florida State Seminoles 4 times in bowl games twice in the Fiesta Bowl 2 in the orange Bowl Nebraska lost each time vs Florida State
Julian Smith yes, and 1993 was when Nebraska knew they had turned the corner and could compete with those Florida teams! 1993 was such a heartbreaker, I knew both Trev Alberts and the place kicker Byron Bennet. Made the game even more difficult to digest! Trev played great with an injured arm and poor Byron shanked what would’ve been the biggest made field goal in Husker history! I miss the 90’s! Some great memories
Because of Frost Nebraska is in this game and not playing for another title. Frost is a jynx and could not throw a football to save his life.
Facts!!!!! Frost was a bum!!!!!!
Yet was last QB to lead Nebraska to a National Championship. Since then in the last 25 years only QB got them to the title game but lost unfortunately was Crouch.
