It would depend on the situation but if the entire defense knows it's a running play, Rozier might have a better chance of picking up tough yards. If you need 100 yards on one play I might go with Gre

One of the vest RB of all time. Nuff siad

power. and the ability to beat down the defense. late in the game, defenders flinched when Rozier ran their way.

Best ever. (But if he was hurt, I would run option to Jeff Smith.. 84' Orange Bowl...)

Bruiser. Best ever.

I don’t think he ever fumbled? Always went forward, So for 3-5 yds., Rozier! for a home run sweep Green

Mike Rozier was the biggest winner of a running back you would ever want. Tough as nails. Both runners were great, but the edge will go to Rozier with me.

Mas Shara

Both are husker greats - mike has a slight edge based on his ability to improvise should things breakdown

Thomas Williams

He was an absolute bull and hard as hell to bring down and always got yards that were needed

Michelle Gutschenritter

Would of crushed all records of every category rushing in 83 if allowed to play all the game. Was pulled at half of many games cuz they were total blowouts. I’ve never seen anyone like him

Chuck Bolder

Mike was a better bruiser and for this situation it is needed!

Mon, 27 May 2019 21:49:55 -0500

Joe Dreyer

I think he was a tougher and more dynamic rusher, from what I could hear on the radio. i watched Green, so it's a little different. i think the stats speak for themselves.

Ahman was great and who knows what he would've done his senior year but I think Rozier is who I would give the ball to.

Doug Clark

I was at the UCLA game and his rune is still one of the greats in Husker lore. Green was great, but Rozier was A++ in college.

I am a millennial who never saw either of these guys and who doesn't get football. However this guy has "green" in his name so I voted for him. Go America!

Rozier's offensive line should have won the Heisman. Rozier was a great running back, but Green was tougher.

Green could catch so in this day and age he gets my nod.

time to win close games . Defense paves way to 8 wins

It is possible, they have to win turnover margin in every game. That is easier said than done.

Every B1G West team has their issues. No West team has clearly better talent than NU. It is time for SF & Co. to deliver. I think they will.

Thu, 01 Jul 2021 14:07:52 -0500

Mark Wane

They're due right? And since I'm 42, and used to us winning 9 games every year for most of my life why would I change my expectation now? 8-4, win the bowl game, 9-4. Should be the minimum expectation for every Nebraska fan. Always! Then with playoff expansion coming, let's get in the mix!! GBR

Paul F Edwards

Of the 3 things needed to win; player acquisition, development and deployment, acquisition is the best predictor of future success. By far in fact. Our roster is built because of great recruiting, development and roster management. It's really kinda all on the coaches to deploy well. If they do, yes

Better o line makes a running game. 4 large backs doesn't hurt.

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 15:44:27 -0500

It's a more complete team across-the-board. Defense should be a top 25 group

Strongest SF team yet. We've been close to beating our west div tormentors for the last 2 years. It happens this year. 3 wins vs Wi-IA-MN-Nw-Mi.

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 20:38:05 -0500

Absolutely, between the football and basketball teams should get to 8 wins in 2021.

If Charmin gets into the NIL biz, they need to sign Martinez because that's how soft he is.

Philip Bierman

1. Who runs and catches? 2. AM may get hurt. 3. No ability to win 50:50 games or even ones where favored. 4. Field position and turnovers. 5. Most worrisome is moronic position from HCSF regarding vaccination. How do we get through season without loss of key players or need to forfeit?

Mon, 02 Aug 2021 09:05:30 -0400

Matt Seiler

A 7 win season would mean the best Husker team since the T Magic era, or maybe further back than that. This schedule is loaded and the B1G isn’t a cakewalk either. Only sure win is Fordham. I’ll be happy as long as they get a bowl game this year

Tue, 13 Jul 2021 15:08:31 -0500

Gerry Van Ackeren

Husker offense has a long ways to go before being competitive.

Sat, 10 Jul 2021 08:30:21 -0500

Thomas Foster

Huskers won’t get to 8 wins with solving the turnover problem and there’s no reason to assume they will.

Wed, 07 Jul 2021 14:03:29 -0500

They have a tremendously difficult schedule and they tend to lose games that they should win.

two teams coming off a bye is not good for big red

Mon, 05 Jul 2021 13:31:00 -0500

Until they prove they will not shoot themselves in the foot with stupid penalties and turnovers expectations should be low.

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 21:04:22 -0500

Only if they pay Our Lady of Lords every game.

Tough year for it. I'll believe it when I see it with this coaching staff.

Fri, 18 Jun 2021 10:55:46 -0500

I want to believe they can, but until the issues going on over the last several years stop....it's going to be more of the same.

Tue, 15 Jun 2021 11:26:22 -0500

Gale Cogswell

maybe if they play teams like the Ladies of the Lords...

Sun, 13 Jun 2021 11:57:09 -0500

Randy Weitzenkamp

Even with the difficult schedule they have the talent to get 8 wins. Unfortunately, this will also take team execution, discipline and a swagger we have yet to see. I'm hoping for 6 wins and a bowl. Anything more is gravy.

Sat, 12 Jun 2021 20:33:08 -0500

Douglas Norman

Huskers have not shown ability to beat even avg teams and are much more likely to LOSE one of the games they should win. then upset a team that they are underdogs in. This looks like a bubble 6 win team, at best.

Fri, 11 Jun 2021 07:39:37 -0500

Ryan Moss

But at least they’re not in the Big 12 any more, am I right? High five!

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 16:27:42 -0500

Not a chance, not with the schedule and no proven on-field play to show otherwise

Huskers does not have the will to win close games. They are 2 years away from winning the close games.

I have to see a decent downfield passing game first before I start getting too optimistic.

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 19:41:54 -0500

Danny Spielman

Why would we think this team could win 8 games? I always had rose colored glasses on over the last couple of decades. I took them off and, whew, Steve Pederson screwed us. Prove it to me!!!

I'll reserve judgment until we've seen him consistently come down with catches in traffic over the course of a season. A JD in hand is better than 2 Omar's in the bush.

No clue yet - he's got all the measurements but has yet to be healthy until now. I think key will be can he stay healthy and can he play through minor injuries.
