Amazing.
You’re right only the ones that actually seen the game should only make comments about it.
Nose tackle 5'9". Pain in LSU butts all night. I was there with a group of fellow students. Trip down including game ticket, transportation and lodging cost me $75. Saw the temptations on New Years Eve for $10. First taste of key lime pie.For me this run was all tied to Tom as the O coordinator. Warren Powers was the D coordinator. Who doesn't remember him as a pain in our butts later on?
We ran the 5-2 D and our roster had players from all over the country. The guys were huge, like 6'2" and 187 lbs.

Powers was never defensive coordinator. He coached DBs.For me this run was all tied to Tom as the O coordinator. Warren Powers was the D coordinator. Who doesn't remember him as a pain in our butts later on?

Phuc those losers, they will NEVER see a national title in football!
“ man woman and child!!!”
A spry old timer today, loved Hoyt Wilhelm, though I was more of a Ted Abernathy thrower me self... but on Jan 1, 1971, NO ONE thought we would win it... too many upsets had to happen, but the BOBFATHER pulled it off!!!!
we came close in 66 against alabama in the orange bowl but ran into a red hot kenny stabler, then in 67 i believe against alabama,again for the national championship i thought for sure we would win because bama's qb joe namath was hurt,but his repacement steve sloan pick apart our white db's much like miami's bernie kosar did against mc cashland ,to the point they changed shirts to hide him. but it all came together 94,95,97 you bet im proud to be a husker
Abernathy was the master submariner. Surely influenced the “youngster“ Quisenberry.
Or it could be that Powers had the official title of defensive backs coach because he coached defensive backs.
Better than that if you contract the period to 1965 through 2001, or 37 seasons. We played in 10 bowls with a chance to win it all over those 37 seasons, and we won five. In eight of the games, the other team was also playing for a shot at the title. That's playing for a title every 3.7 years, and winning one every 7.4 years. Not Alabama great, but it spoiled those of us who have lived through all 10 of those games.
Here's the biggest coaching mistake we've ever made: not keeping Tom Osborne coaching for another 10 years. It would be like Saban retiring in 2011 instead of having an extra decade of dominance because Alabama was able to keep Saban around.
