Turner could do it all. He was equally an excellent runner and passer. And he was a great leader. He would have won 2 NCs if not for 2 terrible calls in the 82 Penn State game and a mediocre D in 83.

Sean Kelly

28-2 with 5 points being the difference between being undefeated.

Ian Paisley

Class and revolutionized the position.

gstegman@cox.net

The best all around. He could throw better than Frazier. His problem was that his defense wasn’t that good and two of the teams top players got bought off.

Rob Wiseman

Gill was magic...The camera crew never knew where the ball was...best option qb of all time Gill.

Lonty Bryant

There is no I in team

Brent Tammy Boettcher

There's not one in MVP, either, but Tommie has three of those, as well.

Frank Johnson

Both were great. I enjoyed watch Turner more than I did Tommy.

I have great respect for Turner and what he has done for the Nebraska football program both as a player and as a former coach. With that being said Tommie led NU to 2 National championships. Turner 0

Livio S Nespoli

He won. Twice.

Mike Petersen

Two NC's, but odd that you didn't include the one who won the Heisman in this discussion.

Randy Weitzenkamp

I'd take Turner Gill everyday of the week and twice on Saturday. I also get that Tommie had much better defensive support than what Turner had. However, in the end Tommie has 2 Natty's.

Scott frost is best.

Kim Brown

He's a winner!

David McClymont

MVP in three bowl games that determined the National Championship. TF was at his absolute best in the biggest games. To come back and play great against Miami after missing 3 months was amazing.

Tony Bunting

I love them both. They are the two best QBs in Nebraska history. Frazier gets the nod because of the NCs, though Gill could have won two, also.

Doug Clark

I think Turner is so close to Tommie in numbers, but 2 Naty’s is a heck of a tie breaker. Tommy won when Turner didn’t.

Rick Chambers

Tommie was the best option Q-back I have ever seen at Nebraska, point blank

Brent Tammy Boettcher

We all know it takes great TEAMS to win the titles, and Frazier arguably had better overall teams. But it isn't just that. He was the MVP of three straight title games. No one else has that.

Joel Schneekloth

This was a tough call. I take Tommy by a hair. Loved Turner Gill as well.

Roy Bishop

2 titles and he made everyone accountable

Sean Fluharty

There was no better big-game QB than Frazier... MVP of 3 straight NCG.

Ron Joseph

I agree. Some years ago, some publication stated that Tommie was the all time best college QB because of leadership & not because of individual stats. Turner was great and really should have had 2 NC

Heck, why not 11-1 ??? Eventually Saterfield will be gone and we will start running the ball and we will be a feared team once again.

Matt Seiler

11-1 is technically the ceiling as they have an outside shot at even Ohio State but I’ll go with 8-4

I DIDN'T VOTE FOR THIS SIDE. I JUST COULDN'T FIND THE 5-7 BOX

klirvine@bresnan.net

got to show me that they will show up every game

Jerry Johnson

We got lots of work to do. Special teams, offensive line, no open holes for running backs. Offensive coordinator not seeing the picture. Same old plays, opponents figure us out way to easy

John Moeller

You have a coach that is 2-22 vs Top 25 opponents.

Gwen Whitney

Something has gone wrong with this team since the 2nd half of the Illinois game! 2 weeks to prepare for this game & this is what shows up ? Wow, that spark has disappeared! Matt time to make this team to wake UP!

Harold Grimes

5 wins is it

PJ SAid

I really think its 8-4.... PJ

Vincent Mahon

So I really think it is 8-4. I see us beating Indianna, Wisconsin and UCLA. Losing to Ohio State, USC and IOWA
