Tough one. I guess I'll go with Martinez, since it was a tough game and all, was the best passing performance of his career. Ganz prolly @ #2. Tommie was just being Tommie.

 
Darn whipper-snappers. No appreciation for true greatness. JR destroyed undefeated Alabama by himself in the alleged game of the century II

 
This guy was really offensive

Helu's jaw-dropping performance sticks out in my mind. If I recall, he pretty much did his damage in a half. There are some good ones on this list, though. Frazier's is probably one of the least impressive (as far as individual performances go), and that says something.

 
That was hard. As noted above, Frasier was just being Frasier - he is on a level all by himself and I would have to say the same wt Johnny Rodgers - we may have to do this with 'level 1' and level 2 players. Some guys you expect and get greatness on virtually every game.

Now for all of the others, I went with TM game 7 at Okie State. I went with it for good reason - I was at that game along with 100s of Okla Cornhusker Club fans (at the 2:40:59 mark they show a "Nebraska remaining schedule graph" I'm 2 rows above the K in Nebraska in the black Husker Cap - those are all Okla Cornhusker Club members in that section - first time I saw that when I clicked the link above). We were actually all blown away by TM's performance. We knew Okie State was going to light up the sky - they had Blackman on the the side and he was matched against our Prince A in a real battle. We were all amazed on how well TM matched everything the OSU did against our D. A turning point came when we faked a punt and got an unexpected 1st down that led to a TD. This game was also remembered for the huge kick off return 'block' Martin threw on an OSU player (knocked him out) - of which he got suspended by the conf a week later. TM had amazed us by his runs against KSU and then amazed us at OSU. We though we had the 2nd coming of Tommie Frazier until a week later when TM got injured against Missouri and he seemed to never be the same again.

 
Gonna go with Roy because it was against a top 10 team (I believe Mizzou was #6 and had just knocked off #1 OU).
