knapplc Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Hey, we're top ten in this thing! With a great game by Rex, we could move into the top three. Here's just the chart. 1 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 *is mildly amused that the last two teams on that chart spell out 'Suh'* 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Wow that's a pretty cool stat actually. So what Huskers make up that 383 yards? Roger Craig is one off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Tom Rathman has to be one. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
Husker in WI Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Craig and Rathman are good bets for a lot of it - I feel like there are some guys like Brandon Jackson who chipped in some small amounts. I'm also curious about Oklahoma State - is it literally all Thurman Thomas? And when has Texas Tech ever had a running back? Bam Morris I guess, but it can't all be him. Quote Link to comment

Thurman Thomas had a combined 204 rushing yards in the Bills' four-year Super Bowl run from 1990-1993. Not sure who had the other 200+ yards. Quote Link to comment
Husker in WI Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Spoiler Super Bowl Player Carries Yards 14 Vince Ferragamo 1 7 19 Roger Craig 15 58 23 Roger Craig 17 71 23 Tom Rathman 5 23 24 Roger Craig 20 69 24 Tom Rathman 11 38 47 Sam Koch 1 -8 52 Rex Burkhead 3 18 I'm still short somewhere for Nebraska as well - put what I have in a spoiler in case people want to guess. Those aren't off the top of my head, but they were ones I knew Nebraska players were in and I don't want to go game by game. Some interesting stuff I'd forgotten though, like Sam Koch's infamous "run around while my teammates tackle the punt return team and take a safety when time expires" play, which shows up as a -8 yard run.

JJ Husker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Ahman Green should be in there....I think. GB made their share of SB appearances. Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Zero touches for Ahman Green in a Super Bowl. Quote Link to comment
AlaSker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 1983 Dolphins- Andra Franklin- 49 yards rushing 1 Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Slow day here. So here's what I came up with. Roger Craig: 198 yards in three Super Bowls Tom Rathman: 61 yards in two Super Bowls Andre Franklin: 49 yards in one Super Bowl Vice Ferragamo: 7 yards in one Super Bowl That gets me to only 315, and accounts for every Husker I can imagine carrying the ball from this list https://www.huskermax.com/super-bowl-huskers/ including Brandon Jackson and Irving Fryar. I'll hand if off to somone else now. 1 Quote Link to comment
Old Nebraska Guy Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Calvin Jones played in one super bowl with Green Bay but I think all he did was special teams. Quote Link to comment
CheeseHusker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Ahman never made it. I think he was out of the league by 2010. And yeah, Calvin Jones was mostly a special teams player. Quote Link to comment
jsneb83 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Burkhead rushed for 18 yards last year Quote Link to comment
