1978 NCAA Football Oklahoma at Nebraska
11/11/1978
This one was a real heart breaker for Sooner fans. Ranked No 1 and really the better team and Sims fumbles inside the 5 late in the game. He was just trying to fight for extra yards like he should, but sometimes stuff just happens.

I was a kid when this game was played. I grew up in Florida, as an NFL fan, but when OU Nebraska came on, around Thanksgiving, you can bet your ass everyone in my neighborhood was glued to the TV. What a treat to be able to see this game again!!!! Thank you!!!!!! And I can add to favorites the 79, 80 and 81 games and watch them next.

@@lloydkline3265 I miss the days of triple option offenses, as well. To me, it doesn't matter whether the base formation is the wishbone, the flex, the power I, or the veer. There's something poetic about the creation of that mesh between qb and fullback, and the magic of isolating the perimeter defender as the qb and trailing back attack the edge.... It's a great system for youth players to learn fundamentals on both sides of the ball.

Great memories of carefree days and great good hitting college (& pro) football. For those of my high school classmates who went to college, they would have been seniors that year. And who better to call this game than the great Keith Jackson. A week later the Cornhuskers would be stunned by Missouri and the Sooners got their revenge against Nebraska in the Orange Bowl on Jan 1st. Billy Sims went on to a brilliant career with the Detroit Lions until a knee injury in 1984 ended his playing days.. A crushing and sad end.

As happy as I was when the the Huskers won this game, the high only lasted a week because they lost to Missouri. At the time I was shocked, but in retrospect, the loss wasn't really an upset. Missouri had Kellen Winslow, James Wilder, Leo Lewis, Eric Wright, and four other future NFL players. I forget where Nebraska was in the polls after beating Oklahoma, but they still probably wouldn't have had a crack at the national title anyway. The Sugar Bowl was still going to be Alabama (who beat Nebraska the first game of the season) and undefeated Penn State, and the Rose Bowl was locked into Big 10 vs. Pac 10, so they wouldn't have had a shot at USC.

@@brianjacob8728 Well Griese was an all american qb from Purdue so he was well on his way to knowing the game prior to ever meeting Shula. I'm sure Shula, along with the number of hours of film a qb studies, the years worth of reps in practice and live games, we're all big contributors. i just think to rest it all with Shula would be unfair to Griese is all- and I totally agree, Griese was a perfect match with Keith

Can someone give me #48 for Nebraska's name and current address? I'd like to send him a bouquet for knocking that ball out of Billy Sim's arms at end of game. Helped Alabama get a chance to play #1 Penn State in New Orleans, which with a 14-7 win gave us Natty #10. Had OU won we'd have been playing a consolation bowl game.
