1997 Oklahoma vs Nebraska

Nov 1, 1997. Nebraska blasts Oklahoma 69-7 in Lincoln. This broadcast is from ABC.

[@davidk6269]

The 1996 and 1997 OU-Nebraska games were so incredibly lop-sided. I'm a Husker fan, but I prefer the more competitive games between these two teams.

[@StonedMeadowOfDoom]

It's amazing how a program that looks as poor as Oklahoma does here is able to win a National Championship just 3 years later. I wish Nebraska could get a turnaround like that in such a short time now.

[@robjohnson8861]

lol. And OU beat the coach that owned Osborne. How come you didn't type that Stoned?

[@sorney98]

Rob Johnson wtf are you talking about? You ok there?

[@robjohnson8861]

@@sorney98 dumbass, who did Stoops beat in the NC game? What was that coaches record against Osborn?

[@sorney98]

Rob Johnson Stoops never coached against Osborne dip shit. Solich was the coach and he was 1-1. Callahan sucked. Bo got a win against OU.

More stupidity from rob schlong sucker johnson, mr. 30 IQ

That 97 team was stacked with talent.

[@gregpasq]

Yup. Nebraska's first TD of this game was scored by a fullback....that tells you everything you need to know about that 97 team. They were loaded for bear.....

[@davidk6269]

IMHO, the '97 Husker team was IMHO the second most talented Husker team ever, with the most talented Husker team ever being the '95 team. Both teams had amazing starting talent and great depth across their rosters. Those were the days.

Exactly 1 week after that October snowstorm.

Yup. Still remember that mess!

Now I know why Nebraska beat my sooners like this they couldn't beat Oklahoma for 16 yrs before.

I think they won every year from 90-97, might be wrong tho

Nebraska Coach Scott Frost

[@pretorious700]

Oklahoma always seemed to have a lot of low class showboating. Not so much in this ass kicking.

[@tylerjirkovsky482]

I feel bad for the Nebraska band thats alot of playing of grate tune

[@ronaldlittlejohn8572]

Watching this video during the night because can't sleep. NU plays OS this morning and NU is ripe for a very big upset for OS!!! GBR!!!!!

[@mattbridgeford3322]

So stoked Frost came back home. Pop the hood he’ll get the big red machine running again

[@robjohnson8861]

Ut oh. ESPN is predicting 10-2 regular season for Frost in 2019. Pelini had 3 of those.

[@StonedMeadowOfDoom]

@@robjohnson8861 Dude, you are way too dumb to be commenting on anything.

[@robjohnson8861]

@@StonedMeadowOfDoom You're right. Nebraska 17, CO 0 at the half and Frost pulls a Pelini and doesn't win "a game that matters. Did Pelini have a lot of 17 pt melt downs?

[@BC-jc4ot]

I was at this game...hard to believe it was 20 years ago. Frost will be Tom Osborne 2.0

[@robjohnson8861]

Let's hope not. If faced with a Phllips like decision, let's hope he takes the high road vs the win at all cost road (See Osborne, Paterno).

[@robjohnson8861]

@Plemons Residence Glory and Big 8. There are forever connected. Never forget that.

[@sorney98]

Rob Johnson big difference Phillips case was a player. Paterno’s problem was a coach and friend that was and still sick SOB. Osborne wanted to help a player that needed help. Course while Phillips was gone, Nebraska kept winning, but hey what do you know.

Coming back to this comment years later. It did not age well

[@robjohnson8861]

1 ranked OU team (16, not this one) during the 60-3 whimsical run. A coach's main nemesis is non existent and the coach is elevated to god like status. Sure! Right!

[@xSoccerxCorex]

not Osborne's fault OU was garbage during this time.

[@robjohnson8861]

@@xSoccerxCorex Oh, so he should get accolades bec its not his fault?

[@sorney98]

Rob Johnson do us a favor and shut it, already slammed you once, don’t make do it again

[@robjohnson8861]

@@sorney98 You have never slammed me. We could established baselines of what greatness in a football team comprises. A 60-3 run when your nemesis were bottom dwellers would be make the cut in one of those baselines. Over and over and over, the 60-3 was a farce.

[@sorney98]

Rob Johnson funny because yet I commented something on another video, I go to check on it and it’s gone. 🤔🤔🤔🤔. Besides yes Oklahoma was down for a while, so what. We kicked their ass as we should of when they had their down years. 60-3 in 4 years is big accomplishment and no one, and repeat no one will touch it. 3 seasons of a undefeated season. We played quality teams during those years. Get over it hater.

[@robjohnson8861]

Leading 48-0 and Osborne still has first string in. Need to go look at MI see if Carr was up the same poor sportsmanship that Osborne was. The more you watch Osborne, the more you understand why few outside of Lincoln believed what he was shoveling regarding Phillips. It was all about winning to Osborne.

[@xSoccerxCorex]

probably not since Michigan had a lot of close games that season. as far as i'm concerned they were the real champ of 97', not Nebraska

[@xSoccerxCorex]

just looked up the side by side in fact and michigan won against minnesota 24-3 on the same day. a blowout but compared to this game it was a fucking nail-biter

[@robjohnson8861]

@@xSoccerxCorex When did Carr take out 1st string?

[@markross882]

it was all about the grudge he had with ou and switzer

[@robjohnson8861]

@@markross882 sure it was. 2 games later leading Iowa st 56-0 with 20 secs left in the 1st half, the players look to Osborne asking, "what do we do, take a knee or go for it." The fine, principled Osborne ordered his first string to score again.
