JTrain Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Nominate a performance or two (or more). Definitely go back as far as your memory serves you. List stats as well. Here a few that come to mind for me: Tommie Frazier, 1994 Orange Bowl vs. #1 FSU 13 of 24, 206 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT, 14 carries for 77 yards, MVP Jammal Lord, 2002 vs. #7 Texas 7 of 14, 98 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT, 23 carries for 234 yards Ndamukong Suh, 2009 Big 12 CCG vs. #2 Texas 12 tackles (10 solo), 6 TFL, 4.5 sacks Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 crouch against cu in 2001? i just remembered how we would keep coming back and scoring, but we could not stop them. crouch was a beast, our defense was not so much. Quote Link to comment

Came in here to post this. Ran for 162, threw for 198. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Maurice Purify against CU in 2007. 11 catches. 136 yds. 3 TDs. We hung a half a hunderd on CU and still lost by two scores. Thanks Kevin Cosgrove. Quote Link to comment

Thanks Kevin Cosgrove. we knew the terms of cosgrove, if callahan could score 70, cosgrove could guarantee a win. more the 50, then a 50/50 chance of a win. anything less, it would be a loss. callahan knew what his offense had to produce, they had a compact together.

Guy Chamberlin Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Suh against Texas last year. I don't think it's even close. More than one veteran sportscaster said it was the greatest individual defensive performances they'd ever seen. Quote Link to comment
andyokstate Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 See, the problem is that Nebraska hasn't lost that much over the years. I've gotta go with what I know. Barry Sanders - 1988 NU vs OSU 189 yards, 4 TDs But...in the spirit of this thread, my nod goes to Suh. I kept thinking, how can one guy be so disruptive the entire game. Just amazing. Was it the '94 Orange bowl listed above where Frazier had that crazy 80ish yard TD run? Quote Link to comment
Malth Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Suh last year against Texas was just insane. ^That run was against Florida when we won the title Quote Link to comment
308_Husker Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Oh, man. Jamaal "Bounce Pass" Lord. He couldn't have thrown a ball at an ocean and hit water. But, staying on topic, I would have to go with Suh as well. Absolutely amazing game. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 If we’re gonna list efforts *against* Nebraska, then I gotta go with the passing stats of LA Tech vs. NU 1998: Passing: Tim Rattay, 46-68 passing, 4 TDs, 590 yds Receiving: Troy Edwards, 21 catches, 3 TDs, 405 yds Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 if callahan could score 70 Every time I see his name I'm relieved it's over. I hate that type of football. Give me a 10-7 win any day over 60-50. I'd add Abdul Mohammad for great performances (against Florida State). Quote Link to comment

Hercules Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 The 3 examples in the OP are about as good as it gets... Lord's effort wasn't quite on the level of the other two, in my opinion, because of that decisive interception at the end. Frazier and Suh truly had super-human performances in games where Nebraska was expected to get blown out, and did everything they possibly could have done, and then some, to put their team in a position to win.

REDSTEEL Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Gdowski, who threw three touchdown passes and racked up 280 total-offense yards, had driven the Huskers from the NU 12 to the CU 42 in the last 1:40 before the last-ditch pass fell incomplete. Gerry Gdowski's pass intended for Jon Bostick in the end zone on the last play of the game was deflected by Colorado's Dave McCloughan, preserving the second-ranked Buffaloes' 27-21 win over third-ranked Nebraska and leaving CU all alone at the top of the Big Eight standings.
