I have enjoyed diving into the history of Husker football on many of these brackets. I’ve learned a lot about players from yesteryear and learned interested tidbits about recent players.
The fullbacks may have been the most fun group of the bunch.
Brew’s highly scientific seeding system held true. All the favored players advanced to the second round. Both Makovicka brothers moved on. Davis (X2), Rathman, Franklin, Solich, Schlesinger...that is an impressive group of blockers and occasional ball carriers. You can point to multiple players on this list and credibly talk about altering Husker football history.

It’s Davis v Davis for your first poll.
