He was ALWAYS there for his team. Who else could ever say that in the NFL?

Steve Vastine

I knew his cousin, who had always said he belonged in the HoF. Just didn’t happen as soon as it should have.

Steve Walker

I was going to go with Will Shields, but looking at the summary above 17 ys vs 14, 4SB appearances, 240 games vs 231. However, Will's 12 pro bowls almost swayed me. I wish tie was an option.

David French

Played forever in the NFL.

William Snesrud

Tingelhoff because the game was not so specialized in his tenure....let's not forget big Bob Brown either when comparing best Husker lineman in the NFL!!

Mark Rasmussen

I read the stats accompanying this poll. If you compare them both are GREAT... but Mick's numbers are better.

Randy Milhoan

Tingelhoff. There was nobody tougher at Lexington, the U of Nebraska, or the Minnesota Vikings. He pays the price today but he was a gentle and unmatched WARRIOR.

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

Robert Lloyd

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Mitch Bronston

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

I believe Coach Rhule and his staff have the ability to get the team to understand their shortcomings in the last game and will show them how to overcome the obstacles that Michigan presented. GO BIG RED!!! 🎈🎈🎈

Robert Lloyd

I believe we have three coordinators who will get the job done.

winning 4 big 10 games in a row very difficult with 2 away

Tim Michelsen

15 is stationary needs to help out line. He is a defensive line dream

Betty ONeill

We have to play and coach better

AK-460Mag Nurse

I doubt it, but I'd be happy with 3/4 at this point. Hope I'm wrong though.

Bill Petty

Can't get stops when it counts the most. Can't move ball when it counts the most. O line and D line have been and continue to be a problem. I am not hopeful going forward.

George mcdaniel

They will go 1 and 3

Richard Johnson

We have a DC that can't adjust on the fly.

Sporty361

Our line play is mediocre. We have skill players but our line play on both sides will be our limiting factor. We need to find toughness for 4 quarters. In this age of celebrating every yard, we lose rock hard toughness.

Roy Katskee

Football games are won with offensive and defensive lines. We have neither.

John Reeb

Our O-Line & D-Line are simply not good enough to get the job done.
