#10 Nebraska Cornhuskers at Oklahoma Sooners - 1990 - Football - CBS Pre-game

#10 Nebraska (9-1) coached by the legend Tom Osborne traveled to Norman for the first Big Red Battle of the 90s. OU, coached by Gary Gibbs, and led by quarterback Cale Gundy would romp Nebraska 45-10. It would actually turn out to be OU's final victory over the Huskers till 2000. The starting quarterbacks for both teams would suffered game ending injuries, but this one would never be in doubt. Most say that this game, and the 1993 Texas win, are Gary Gibbs shining moments while at the helm of the Sooners.

We were on probation...It's a shame, 1990 was a solid year for Gibbs too.

Thanks for posting this. I miss this game on Thanksgiving Friday.

It makes you wonder sometimes. A 7-3 record wasn't good enough to go to a bowl, yet 6-5 or 6-6 is fine by today's standards. It shows how special going to a bowl game was twenty years ago. Now over half of the teams go to one.
