NUance Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Who is the best football player to face the Huskers in Memorial Stadium? I’m going with Deion Sanders. FSU v. NU 1986. We won 34-17. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Ricky Williams, Daunte Cullpepper, Barry Sanders Just a few I could think of Quote Link to comment

huKSer Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Best COLLEGE player: Keith Jackson (not the announcer, whoa nelly) Best future professional player: Gayle Sayers Quote Link to comment
commando Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 well....considering he has been voted the greatest college player of all time....i would have to say Red Grange is the greatest player to ever face the huskers in Lincoln Quote Link to comment

I didn't know NU played Illinoise while Grange was there Quote Link to comment

Husker from Kansas Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 barry sanders, maybe the best running back all time! Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 How can anyone turn down Barry Sanders?!?! Quote Link to comment
Husker NoNo Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 He's still too short.... Quote Link to comment
VA Husker Fan Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Grange, then Sanders. Lee Roy Selmon has to be up there too. Billy Sims, Joe Washington, Vince Young, Ricky Williams, Deion Sanders, Keith Jackson, the Boz...lots of great college players! If he hadn't been such a head case, Marcus Dupree might've been up there too. He played in the "bouncearoosky" game of 1982. We hit him hard all game long, then suddenly he broke free for an 86 yard TD. Curt Warner had a huge game against us, in 1979, I think? Quote Link to comment
