All time best Nebraska offensive lineman

- Start date
Bob Brown 6 Pro Bowls. Shields 12. Plus his consecutive starts for an O lineman will probably never be touched.

True. I would have had him and Wiegert on there before A. Taylor. Railoa had a sold NFL career too.
Shields and Brown are at a different level than the rest.
Agree that Bob Brown would be at or near the top. Also, nobody ever talks O-line when discussing Devaney's national championship teams, but there were some great linemen on those teams - Daryl White and Doug Dumler, to name a couple of them. Going back further, Tom Novak was best-known as a LB but also played center.
I'm going with shields 1a brown 1b and Remington close second not only great in college but great pro careers
No kidding. Easily #1 and it probably isn't that close. Unbelievable athlete for a person his size. Played both ways including linebacker against George Mira of Miami, Fl. when we beat them in the Gotham Bowl. He jumped started our program over fifty years ago. Check out his block sometime against Auburn on Dennis Claridge's 70 yd. touchdown run in our win in the 1-1-64 Orange Bowl. Arguably one of the greatest OL throughout his NFL career.
I say Rimmington as a College lineman. He has an award named after him, that is how good he was..
Incognito should be represented in this poll. He ran a 4.8 '40 and his wife is pretty hot.

What’s with a new, or more likely, recycled poster creating all of these annoying polls? If you are a Husker fan you surely wouldn’t butcher all of our stars’ names. Moderator time.
