The last time the Huskers ran the 'ole Fumble-roosky play was during the 1992 Halloween game vs. Colorado. Who was the O-lineman that picked up the ball off the ground and ran for a first down?

Will Shields is correct. Fun play to watch. Good job.

bob brown

Now Bob Brown would have been a good choice for that play. He probably would've score a touchdown.

Don't remember him.

He was a guard on Nebraska football I’d say 1975 or 76. I never saw bob brown play but what I’ve read about him, he’d probably would have scored every time the play was run, he was a man among boys

He was a redshirt senior starter on the '79 team.

He ran the fumble-rooski in the Oklahoma game before Randy Schleusener did. He came to Nebraska as a 210 pound offensive lineman.

Little known fact that Havekoat was the first to run the play at NU in the 79 OU game. ABC has no clue what happened on the play. Randy Schleusener most often gets credit for being the first since he scored on his and the ABC cameras caught it the 2nd time. Lance Van Vandt found the play while watching recruit film from Texas

I do remember the '79 OU game. Billy Sims went off for something like 240 yards on the Blackshirts. Great info. Thanks guys.
