Rex Burkhead 2nd Team All-American

Roy

Rex

Granted, he had more attempts, (Practically double what he did his sophomore year) but you have to look at the fact that Rex ran in between the tackles against a stacked box a majority of the time.

He was our whole offense. Roy wasn't ever our whole offense, and if you asked him to be he would fall apart like paper mache.

Really? He would fall apart? You know this how? Because he played in every game for 3 years.

Dude... He couldn't last past the 2nd quarter some games.

I'm pretty sure he sat out almost the entire Holiday bowl, and barely saw the field in the '09 Big 12 CCG.

He's got the same damn issue in the pros.

Durability an issue for Helu?

Again, in between the tackles, stacked box, entirely different offense.

It is a very different offense. I agree. But to say Roy couldn't do it is stretching it because he wasn't really asked to because of the offense they ran then.

He was Nebraska's leading rusher in the 09 CCG. Granted it was only 28 yards but the entire offense sucked that game.
