Remember When Nebraska was Good at Football?

- One of the greatest coaches of all time, Tom Osborne, once said, “The best team doesn’t always win. The team with the best preparation and effort usually does.” While the days of winning back-to-back conference titles might seem like a distant dream, with the right preparation and mindset, Nebraska just like any team can still achieve greatness.
Well for one he starts off by saying they once used to dominate the big 10........u mean the big 8 .
Ya 8/12 never the 10
@@brandonm6052Go back and look at the ranking of Big 8 teams in the 90’s.
Low effort vid just for the Nebraska clicks
We still BELIEVE IN NEBRASKA!
With all this recent failure, this HAS to mean something good is in store for Nebraska in the future. GO BIG RED!!
The reason for Nebraska’s downfall is former chancellor Harvey Perlman who believed the football team had too much power over the university and he then set out to change it.
fired a good coach after osborne because 9-3 wasn’t good enough standard for our program, things kinda spiraled from there.
Yes, once upon a time in a far away land.
I choose to believe…even if it makes no sense. GBR!
Nebraska has done extremely well in the portal. They should have a very competitive team and a schedule that allows for 8-9 wins next year. Their schedule is not too bad either in 2025.
8-9 wins they underachieved this the easiest schedule since joining big10
I would enjoy seeing Nebraska make a run next year. Anything is possible
5:57 the AD, along with his Associate AD’s killed the winning atmosphere at Nebraska. Period.
nebraskas on its way back just trust the process.
I think so too! I love a good comeback story
Never realized how much Mike Rozier looks like George Rogers.😂
Nebraska needs to find their next Bob Devaney. They have spent the last 27 years, off and on, trying to recreate some quasi Osborne feel in Lincoln (Solich, Pelini and Frost). That has been a fruitless endeavor.
It really has been a tug of war over modus operandi.
Pepperage farms remembers 😢
Great video ❤
The 90's were great. :)
With all the hype surrounding the team this year you'd think they're playing for the National Title. Oh well maybe next year...

It’s only 4 days old.
@ yeah still though
Nebraska was a power because they were able to do things other schools weren’t or wouldn’t. They pioneered the strength program when no one else was doing it.
People overlook that Nebraska was very inexpensive and kids they didn’t recruit would walk on. Nebraska had one of the largest wall on program in the country. Kids would get in that weight program 180 pound linebackers were now 230 and the Huskers would get kids they didn’t even use a scholarship on.
Nebraska also used to live on partial qualifiers. Meaning they met either GPA or test score, but not both. Part of why Nebraska hates Texas is that when Texas joined the Big 12 they were one of the catalysts that ended partial qualifiers.
The state doesn’t produce a lot of talent and the pipelines to New Jersey and Texas for talent dried up. Nebraska won by doing things other weren’t and then everyone else caught up
Nebraska was a powerhouse because they had a powerhouse coach, and recruiting had them 10+ wins these past 10+ years
Also Nebraska had really good coaches. This was so overstated in the video. Tom and Charlie Mcbride always drew up the right plays and took the right risks at the right time.
That's a good point. Thanks for sharing
Don’t show Pelini on these videos. Pelini checked the boxes besides championships but he was winning at a good clip
They were pretty good under Bo. You should've put Mike Riley's pic instead
Daily dose of member berries 🌽
Pelini would have remained as our head coach, but his foul mouth and how he treated the media got him escorted out the door.
How did that work out?
He was the luckiest coach in college football...Nebraka came into the Big 10 when Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State were down. His recuting was subpar, and he would have been horrible in the NIL era. 3 different schools broke their rushing records against his defenses in the Big 10
The patience shows of the fans, boosters, and the course administration of the school. When Osborne retired in 1997-98, he made the decision to pick Frank Solich as head coach. As much people say we could of picked anyone, the reason Solich was the right pick because of the style Nebraska ran on offense. I guarantee no one coming in would have a winning season right away, sorry but thats a fact.
Callahan could recruit, but correct fact they were bad against quality teams.
Bo won 9-10 games, part of the problem was Pearlman, Eichorst wasn't willing to help him get better results.
The Riley hire was so bad even ESPN, other sports shows were questioning it. It didnt make since to hire him, was never the long term answer.
Frost unfortunately just couldnt get it done. I do hope Rhule improves, with change of coaches especially offense i think will help.
But i start with this again the low patience of fans, boosters along with dumb AD hires of Harvey Pearlman lead to collapse of Nebraska football.
Thanks for commenting! I agree, that you need to make great hired to grow a program
GOAT 🐐 😎🤘😎
It's shocking how little this Chris Colebank actually knows about a team he made a video on. What a moron.
lmfao you mean big8/12?
What was I thinking!
you forgot about the steroids.
I would like to hear the actual proof during the 90's run. Only one player came forward but during 80's
@sorney98 lmao the whole o line the peter brothers , it was way more than just one player.
@mmmmcolbert8787 that's the best you got? Not proof lmao
@mmmmcolbert8787 need to see test proof
@@sorney98 lmao how about lack of nfl careers , and the injuries that come with steroid use.
This just simply isn't factual. Tom wasn't dominant. He inherited a national title program and went on to only defeat Oklahoma 4 of the 12 first years. This would have been grounds for firing today. The rest of the teams we played were barely functional. Tom was .500 in bowls. Yes the 90s run was legendary due to Tommie Frazier that's what one player can do for you. Nebraska is built in beating low funded ag schools and lining up against OU on e a year and hoping they win and they barely did that. Now Nebraska is in the big ten the game has been elevated across all levels and most of all the chop blocks and illegal blocks Tom and his offense used can't come back ever.
Only wouldn't be fired today because had they made the playoff is enough
The game has definitely changed over the years. Thanks for the input.
