All-Americans announced . . .

[papersun87]

Guess how many Huskers are on the first team.

None.

Well, I can live with that.

The second team? Maybe Suh?

Nope.

How about the honorable mention, which lists about a hundred guys for every position? Any love for Ganz, the third most efficient QB in the country, or Henery and his cannon-leg?

Nope.

 

[SkullandBones]

It's that damned ESPN hating on us again!!!!

 

[Street Novelist]

Dundermifflinite's obsession with Henerey is disturbing.

 

[HSKRNOKC]

We have yet to get that signature win over a top rated team..

We arent going to get respect until then. Suh, Ganz, maybe a couple others are deserving here.

 

[redout22]

I can live with it. The only player that probably had a chance of being on there would be Henery

I totally agree we shouldnt get props until we can beat good teams.

Nope.

Joe Ganz isn't even close to being the third most efficient QB in the country, where are you getting your statistics from?

 

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

Maybe some players will earn it next season. If Suh keeps improving I can see him on the list.

 

[jkstlrnu1]

Its just more fuel to put on the fire for next year. I think Bo & Co. feed off of the lack of nat'l respect & use it to motivate. Whether they admit it or not. Do I think we had a legit All-American on the roster this year? no. But I'm guessing Mr. Suh & Mr. Henery have some new things to put in their lockers to read. :box :box

 

[junior4949]

We didn't even have one player that was All Big 12, and you thought we'd have some 1st, 2nd, or honorable mention All Americans?

 

[KansasHusker]

Not surprising one bit. We have to earn it. Once we are considered a top team in the Big 12 we will get rewarded for it.

From Tim Griffin ESPN:

"...Quarteraback Joe Ganz. After starting the final three games last season, Ganz picked up with the top statistical season for a quarterback in Nebraska school history. Ganz finished the season with 3,332 passing yards and 3,589 total yards -- both Nebraska single-season records -- as he ranked 13th nationally in total offense, 14th in pass efficiency and rifled 23 touchdown passes."

Seems like at least honorable mention material to me. I think Swift and Suh deserve honorable mention too.

 

[junior4949]

I guess I didn't realize 13 & 14 came right after 2.

If Joe Ganz had put those numbers up in ANY other conference he'd been an honorable mention, imho.

Well, the Big 12 takes up about the top 4 spots anyway--Bradford, Colt, Harrell, and (holding nose) Booger(??). So yea, after the other great QBs in the country there's just not enough room for Joey.
