Running counter option out of the I was a thing of beauty. Check the block at 9 second mark. Airborne Sooner.

B1G refs would have ejected him for targeting
The other Husker also took out two Sooners in same clip. The Sooners wishbone offense was also a thing of beauty to watch. So damn frustrating as a Husker fan back N the day.
It is beautiful and sad that you can't do most of that in CFB today. I love the crack backs.
those were the days when football was played by men
And the refs and NCAA and NFL let them play. No flags or coddling back N the day. Before the pussification of America started.
That Scheleen block was a specifically-noted topic in the subsequent SI article, as I recall.
Has Turner Gill been back to Nebraska since he was passed over for the head coaching job in 2007?
How do you like our new B1G trophy .
Your stupidity is on display.. Take your relative moralvictories back to Clarkeyeville.
That was really the critical block that broke that play open. The DB who tried to leap over Schelleen took himself out of the play. He would have whiffed on Rozier even if Schelleen hadn’t flung him ass over tea kettle.
I kinda buy Fryer..and Irvings life after football suggested he was certainly capable of it. No on Rozier though. Never even heard it suggested before. That part sounds really dumb.
Mich Red. Nothing else needs to be said.
Mike Rozier was the best all-time Husker I-back. Man I loved watching him play.
He had incredible balance, as well as power and vision.

Lawrence Phillips was the best all-time Husker running back..
He had it all physically..
Would have broken Rozier record but his demons he had ended that unfortunately..

1. Ahman Green
2. Roger Craig
3. Rex Burkhead and Rozier
He was my partner for a class project in college. He was so quiet or maybe I just talk a lot.
I'm not going to debate you on this. Phillips was very good and Amhan Green and Roger Craig would be part of the conversation as well. But Rozier was just special. His vision, the way he could just absorb contact and just keep going. He's the best in my opinion.
Maybe he got tired of you constantly talking about how bad marriage is? 😀
Ain’t nobody got time for that.
Roger Craig is #1 and it’s not even close. Roger was offensive NFL POY and was the first back in the 1,000 & 1,000 club. He was also on the 80s all decade team. Craig also has 3 Super Bowl rings. No knock on Green but Craig was a super star in the 80s
Ahman Green played 12 seasons for the Packers, Seahawks and Texans. He had 2,056 carries for 9,205 yards, 378 catches for 2,883 yards and scored 74 touchdowns.
Roger Craig played 11 seasons for the 49ers, Vikings and Raiders. He had 1,991 carries for 8,189 yards, 566 catches for 4,911 yards and scored 73 touchdowns
Both are very close for career length and stat wise. Craig has the rings for sure. Both 4 time Pro Bowlers. Green is in the Packers HOF and all time leading rusher.
1A
1B IMO

What he did in the NFL has no bearing on the best at NU Look who was surrounded by in the NFL.
I believe he was responding to the "best pro career" comment.
Great post! That was entertaining. I never knew he was on that game show. And I believe I also saw his brother Guy Rozier, another former Husker in that clip.
One thing that I've noticed about Mike Rozier after his playing career ended was that the guy certainly appears to be living his best life. He shows up fairly regularly at Husker alumni events and he's always the best dressed guy there. Then you see him in this clip! On a game show. How cool is that?
