Crouch Quickies
10-29-2000
vNebraska now has three 2,000yrd career rushers playing, hitting
the mark in the same season as Crouch joins Husker I-backs Dan Alexander (2,107 for 18th)
and Correll Buckhalter (2,342 for 11th).
11-11-2000
vCrouch ranks among the Nebraska Cornhusker's career top 10 in
nearly every category and already ranks as Nebraska's all-time best rushing quarterback.
He has already passed several stellar Husker QBs, including Tommie Frazier (the 1995
Heisman runner-up that led NU to back-to-back national championships in 1994 and 1995),
Scott Frost (led Huskers to a national championship in 1997) and Turner Gill (fourth in
1983 Heisman race, national championship game in 1983).
vCrouch also passed 1983 Heisman Trophy winner Mike Rozier on
theHusker total offense chart. Crouch added to his total Saturday against Kansas State,
rushing for 42 yards and passing for 39 yards.
