cmb23 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 #43 Lonnie Stiner My how times....and media guide photos have changed.... #5 Bernard Thomas Does he have the sack record yet?

cmb23 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 40 Days!!! #40 Cory Schlesinger Schlesinger was a two-year starter for the Nebraska Cornhuskers. As a junior, he was the 1993 Husker Co-Lifter-of-the-Year with linebacker Donta Jones. During that season he finished as the team’s fifth-leading rusher with 48 carries for 193 yards and one touchdown. He earned All-Big Eight Conference honorable mention honors in 1994 in a coaches poll and a Phillips 66 Academic All-Big Eight pick the same year with a 3.44 grade point average in industrial technology. Schlesinger will forever be endeared by Nebraska Cornhuskers fans for scoring two fourth-quarter touchdowns in the 1995 Orange Bowl in a 24-17 win over the Miami Hurricanes as a senior to secure Nebraska's first national title under then-head coach Tom Osborne. I can watch that play over and over and over and over... It never loses it's luster. Psssst. Which one? Those are photos of two different plays. Quote Link to comment
