Bradr Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 anyone know where to get a copy of this game anymore? Furthermore-any of the old school Nebraska games? I believe husker hounds in Omaha sells it. They have ALOT of game dvds in their online storefront. You can even buy whole seasons. If you want to spring $200+ Edit: Just found THIS . And now I have to go clean my shorts. Quote Link to comment

mnhusker Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I voted ........ Nebraska was too good all the way around. I still recall the game and it was not even a question at the time or now what team was more dominate. Quote Link to comment
SaturnDrew Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 When will the ESPN gang analyze these results? I want to see Kirk Herbstreit throw another tantrum about the online voting of Husker fans. hehehehe I can't wait! He might squirt a few tears on this one. Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 At the time it was said Neb would've been about a 7pt fave in Vegas. Quote Link to comment
SaturnDrew Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 At the time it was said Neb would've been about a 7pt fave in Vegas. And I would have gladly given 13 or more to take the Huskers! :-) Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 We were a better overall team, we had played tougher competition, and we were playing Tom Osborne's last game. Not only would we have beaten Michigan, we would have rolled them. Just ask Tennessee, a team that featured Peyton Manning, Peerless Price, Terry Fair, Jamal Lewis and Trey Teague.

I think that UT had Leonard Little and Al Wilson as well. Quote Link to comment
Joe_5700 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 anyone know where to get a copy of this game anymore? Furthermore-any of the old school Nebraska games? I have all of the big 90's games on VHS. I need to get those on DVD. One of my favorite moments in Husker history has to be the 4th quarter of the Miami game. Quote Link to comment

I think that UT had Leonard Little and Al Wilson as well. That UT team had to have had more NFL players overall than Michigan. They were very fast and loaded. When I think of that game I also get images of Wistrom pulling down Manning just as he releases his passes. Didn't he have something like 109 total yards for the game?? Quote Link to comment
akhskrfan Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 anyone know where to get a copy of this game anymore? Furthermore-any of the old school Nebraska games? For the 1998 Orange Bowl I would recommend this http://cgi.ebay.com/Nebraska-Cornhuskers-Greatest-Games-5-DVD-Boxset-/360265299255?cmd=ViewItem&pt=US_DVD_HD_DVD_Blu_ray&hash=item53e17c3537, cheap price and you get the original tv broadcats. It also has some bonus Husker videos with it. For other games, this site seems to be pretty good. http://www.ioffer.com/i/nebraska-cornhusker-football-classics-on-dvd-1963-2009-46713481 Quote Link to comment
kornhusker Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 http://m.deadspin.co...abama-is-a-liar Found this article on deadspin. Irked me a little, when talking about Nebraska. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 He's got a point. Michigan rolled through their schedule and never had to squeak by anyone. We've been living a 15 year myth folks.

jsneb83 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 The guy graduated from Northwestern, so he is a Big Ten homer. And kicking the ball while the play is still live is apparently cheating. I mean are you f'ing kidding me? Quote Link to comment
Popular Post knapplc Posted January 11, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2013 It's pretty simple. Nebraska played the #3 team in the country, Tennessee, with Peyton Manning, Peerless Price, and a host of future NFL stars on their roster. We destroyed them. Michigan ducked out of the national championship game - not entirely their fault, but they contributed to the decision - because the Big Ten and Pac-10 felt the Rose Bowl was more important than joining the Bowl Alliance. In their little Rose Bowl game with everything on the line, they barely beat Ryan Leaf and.... nobody else. No other star or even decent player was on that Wash. State roster. And they eked out a win, and they claim their title was "better?" They can keep their little 11th-grade shop class wooden plaque that says "National Champions" on it. It's a bone we can throw a team that hasn't won anything of significance in 70 years. We'll take the giant crystal trophy, though. That's the real trophy, the trophy the real champ gets, and it's sitting in our trophy case as I type this. I'll go down to the stadium and take a picture of it if this writer wants to see what a real trophy looks like. 29 Quote Link to comment
