  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.

  • The Beginning
    How Husker Power began with Bob Devaney 1957 My first lifting experience began in Danny Lundberg’s garage in 1957 at age 10. His older brother had a set of weights in their garage. I was 12 when my dad bought me a set of weights. The set came with instructions on how to perform competitive weightlifting movements which is not what most athletes need to improve performance especially young ones. 1959 Danny Lundberg (L) and Epley (R) 1962-65 Between 1962-65 my high school coach Hugh Morrison provided direction in physical education weight training class and as the head football and track coach at Alhambra High School in Phoenix, Arizona. My First Set of Weights age 12 Hugh Morrison - my Football and Track Coach in high school. I also picked up ideas from bodybuilder friend Pat Neve who was one of my high school classmates. Pat later won Mr. America and set a world record in the bench press at 480 lbs. weighting 180 lbs. Pat Neve Mr. America 1962 So while I was in high school in Arizona the University of Nebraska hired Bob Devaney as the Head Football Coach and immediately became a force in the Big Eight Conference. Prior to Devaney's arrival, Nebraska football had seven consecutive losing seasons. Coach Devaney and his staff engineered an immediate turnaround with a 9–2 record in 1962 that included an upset victory over Michigan at Michigan and a victory in the Gotham Bowl at Yankee Stadium over the Miami Hurricanes. 1963-66 Coach Devaney followed with an even better 10–1 season in 1963 including a perfect 7–0 record in the Big Eight to claim the conference title and an Orange Bowl victory over Auburn.

The Home Depot ESPNU College Football Awards announced on ESPN Thursday, Dec. 6, from the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta, GA, that Quinnen Williams from the University of Alabama, is the winner of the 2018 Outland Trophy.
