He may not be as purely talented, but there is nothing but winning in Scott Frosts veins. He is a champion. That is why he'll be a fantastic head coach too. He is a winner. Simple as that.

Chuck Buchholz

Crouch could beat you with his legs but Frost was the best leader and the toughest.

Tony Bunting

Both were great, but Frost could do everything Crouch did and was more of a leader.

Randy Weitzenkamp

I'd go with Frost as he was a fierce competitor who wasn't afraid to run someone over when necessary. The national championship was icing on the cake. Why wasn't this Frazier vs Frost?

Alan Pattee

Actually I would do it Tommie Frazier

Ruben Ernesto Sandoval

Agree, no offense but they're competing for second place after Touchdown Tommy.

Ron Joseph

Scott for leadership qualities, drive and toughness. While Eric was the better runner, Scott was the better option QB.

Gene Baker

Scott Frost was just the better athlete and competitor. He the one with the undeafeated season and National Championship.

Randy Austin

I believe he had just a little more drive

Jazzy Jimmins

Leadership!

Frank Johnson

Could have picked either one and been happy. Scott wasn't as fast but I do believe he was the tougher runner.

Dave

One stat matters most.

Livio S Nespoli

He is a born winner who would do anything to win or help his team. Play offense or defense and do it well.

Wes Thrun

tough call for me, Scott Frost just had or has an attitude about him, he ran angry. I guess the question i would have is what would crouch have done with that 97 offensive line and coach Osborne

Eric Crouch had to carry the load of the offense. Scott was good too, but had better support and more weapons. Eric was faster, quicker as a runner, better instincts on the option. He also had better arm strength. Scott was bigger and stronger as a runner, a more vocal leader though. Close call

Doug Miller

Tough call but Crouch with his legs.

Patrick Ryan

They were both terrific, but if we are comparing players (not teams) - it isn't very close. Eric Crouch could carry a team; he wasn't just 'fast' - he was tough and had a great will to win.

Don Wagner

He was a rocket!!

Doug Daubert

Scott had a better team around him. I believe Crouch was the better athlete and overall quarterback. I would pick him as my QB. Now compare to Gill, Gdowski, Taylor, Frazier...

James Barnett

If Crouch played for Osborne he'd have had even a better career. Not knocking Solich but it was clear the team fell off after Tom Os' departure.

Greg Muller

I guess Tommy F, is assumed to be preferred choice over either Frost or Crouch?

Patrick Ryan

These are impossible questions, but Turner Gill is my all time favorite. He changed the position at Nebraska, and had the ideal combination of elusiveness, toughness, leadership, and passing skills.

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
