  • Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003
    Big 12 Conference Schools Raise Nine-Year NFL Draft Totals to 277 Alumni Through 2003 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Apr. 26, 2003 DALLAS—Big 12 Conference teams had 10 of the first 62 selections in the 35th annual NFL “common” draft (67th overall) Saturday and added a total of 13 for the opening day. The first-day tallies in the 2003 NFL draft brought the number Big 12 standouts taken from 1995-03 to 277. Over 90 Big 12 alumni signed free agent contracts after the 2000-02 drafts, and three of the first 13 standouts (six total in the first round) in the 2003 draft were Kansas State CB Terence Newman (fifth draftee), Oklahoma State DE Kevin Williams (ninth) Texas A&M DT Ty Warren (13th). Last year three Big 12 standouts were selected in the top eight choices (four of the initial 21), and the 2000 draft included three alumni from this conference in the first 20. Colorado, Nebraska and Florida State paced all schools nationally in the 1995-97 era with 21 NFL draft choices apiece. Eleven Big 12 schools also had at least one youngster chosen in the eight-round draft during 1998. Over the last six (1998-03) NFL postings, there were 73 Big 12 Conference selections among the Top 100. There were 217 Big 12 schools’ grid representatives on 2002 NFL opening day rosters from all 12 members after 297 standouts from league members in ’02 entered NFL training camps—both all-time highs for the league. Nebraska (35 alumni) was third among all Division I-A schools in 2002 opening day roster men in the highest professional football configuration while Texas A&M (30) was among the Top Six in total NFL alumni last autumn.

  • Nebraska Post-Game Notes #16 Nebraska Vs
    Nebraska Post-Game Notes #16 Nebraska vs. UCLA, Sept. 8, 2012, Pasadena, Calif. 4With the loss, Nebraska fell to 1-1 on the season, failing to win its first two games for the first time since 2004. The Huskers also lost their road opener for the first time in three season. With the loss, NU fell to 7-5 all-time against UCLA, including 3-4 in games against the Bruins in California and 3-2 vs. UCLA at the Rose Bowl. 4The loss also snapped Nebraska’s 10-game winning streak in the month of September. NU fell to 16-3 in regular-season non-conference games under Bo Pelini. 4Junior quarterback Taylor Martinez had a career-long 92-yard run for a touchdown in the second quarter to put Nebraska ahead 14-7. The 92-yard touchdown run was the longest run by a Nebraska player since Eric Crouch’s school-record 95-yard touchdown run at Missouri in 2001. It also tied for the fifth-longest rush in school history and was the second-longest ever by a NU quarterback. The 92-yard run bettered Martinez’s previous long rush of 80 yards on two occasions, at Washington in 2010 and at Kansas State in 2010. 4Martinez finished the game with 11 carries for 108 yards and one touchdown. The game marked the ninth 100-yard rushing game of Martinez’s career. The nine career 100-yard rushing games ties Jammal Lord for the second-most among Nebraska quarterbacks, trailing only Eric Crouch’s 17 career 100-yard rushing games.
