Historical Husker Media

"He knows the history and the contents of the broadcasts like some people know scripture."  - Lincoln Journal-Star August 25, 2002

WELCOME TO MY SPORTS MEDIA PAGE WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE NEBRASKA CORNHUSKERS! As time permits, I am converting my library to a digital format.

This site is dedicated to sports audio/video trading. Due to copyright laws, my recordings are not for sale. I respectfully decline to answer emails asking for a "price".

This page exists so I can pursue my hobby of collecting sports media and promote  the HISTORY & TRADITION OF CORNHUSKER FOOTBALL!

SPECIAL OFFER: 

$$$ Cash paid $$$ for old VHS/Beta/film/cassette/reel-to-reel home recordings of Nebraska games I don't have. If possible, I can convert obsolete formats to  digital format.  I'm looking for original broadcasts as seen or heard on day of the event. Original recordings preferred. Depending on quality, dubs would be considered. Depending on the year, Nebraska basketball games and other sporting events also considered. EXAMPLE: If your old uncle lived in Lincoln and recorded every Nebraska game since he was 10-years old...or, your retired grandfather worked at a TV station, or radio station and saved those clunky tape reels and they are taking up space, e-mail me and turn the tapes into $$$ Cash $$$ 
 

Commentary: Unless it is for something extremely rare, I regret I will no longer offer my film/radio audio projects for trade. It seems these are ending up for sale on online auction sites and for sale  on other video sites. These productions are a "labor of love" for me. But, they take up 20 hours of computer time to assemble.  I don't sell them because I don't own the copy rights.  I'm quite certain the people profiting from my work, don't own the copy rights either!

             1971 NEBRASKA vs OKLAHOMA

JUST COMPLETED!  Due to a better quality audio recording, from a reel-to-reel tape, this game was redone! The ULTIMATE version of this game! The best ABC video combined with KFAB radio's audio.  Stellar picture through out the game! Only the half time & postgame have a a lower-grade picture. Listen and watch as the KFAB radio cew of Lyell Bremser, Dave Blackwell and Jack Payne capture the emotion and excitement of the "Game of the Century"! This version of the game runs over 3 hours on 3 DVD discs!  

1970 NEBRASKA vs COLORADO

Due to a better quality film, this game was redone.  KFAB audio combined with more player photos, replays, zoom ins, "scores of other games" played October 31, 1970.  Nebraska strike early with two Van Brownson to Guy Ingles TD passes...then hold on for hard fought 29-13 win. Notables include:  Cliff Branch, John Keyworth, Herb Orvis, Jeff Kinney Johnny Rodgers, Jerry Murtaugh and Bob Newton. Run time is 2 hours & 20 minutes!

The 1979 NEBRASKA vs MISSOURI game! A real "stem-winder" that comes down to the LAST PLAY of the game! The game footage is video tape taken from KOLN's & KMTV's TOM OSBORNE SHOWS combined with KFAB radio's Lyell Bremser's audio! There are some plays missing. "Scores of other games" and a look back at the Nebraska-Missouri series fills some of the gaps. A VERY EXCITING GAME! Runtime is about 2 hours & 30 minutes on 3 discs!

ONGOING PROJECTS 

I'll be adding KFAB's Lyell Bremser's radio audio to the

 1978 Nebraska vs Oklahoma game. 

Of all the games in my library, the 1978 NU-OU tilt stands out as my personal favorite! 

I just got in every game 1993-1995, HuskerVideo VHS tapes. I'll be converting them to DVD.

Due to new discoveries, I'll be working on my radio audio from 1971-1976. I'll be combining & editing recordings to form the best possible version of games and converting those games to digital format. Check my audio archives for updates & upgrades.

Listen to the LEGENDS RADIO SHOW ON BIG SPORTS 590 IN OMAHA with Jerry Murtaugh & Gary Java. Every Saturday morning from 9:00 - 10:00. Missed the show? Listen to the podcast.

I am a Nebraska Football Audio Historian and  the official supplier of vintage game clips played on the Legends Radio Show.
