Best All-Time Season
1995 – The tail-end of the Tom Osborne era was perhaps the best in the history of the Cornhusker program. In 1995, the team was coming off a national championship the year before with a lot of pieces still in place. The team of course employed a heavy triple-option style on offense, but still managed to put up over 53 points per game behind quarterbacks Tommy Frazier and Brook Berringer.
The defense was as equally dominant, allowing just 14.5 points per game and sending relentless pressure with speed and athleticism. The team went on to obliterate the Florida Gators 62-24 in the Fiesta Bowl to cement itself as the best team in Cornhuskers’ history.

Mike Rozier, RB (1981-1983) – Rozier was one of the best running backs to ever play the college game. A two-time All-American, he is still the ‘Huskers all-time leading rusher with 4,780 total yards over three seasons. As a senior Heisman winning campaign, Rozier rushed for over 2,148 rushing yards, had 2,486 all-purpose yards, 29 touchdowns, and nearly took his team to a national title. He was drafted in the first round of the NFL and USFL draft in 1984.
