The Nebraska State Prairie Dogs: A Continuing NCAA Dynasty

[HuskerBlitz]

The journey to place another Division I-A football team in central Nebraska would come with little fanfare. But after 100 years, no one could have predicted that the trek would lead to one of the most storied programs in the NCAA history. Nine national championships, with the last coming just a couple of seasons ago, multiple Heisman Trophy winners, countless All-Americans and a story that only dreams could have imagined. The Nebraska State University Prairie Dogs have burrowed their way into football history and into the hearts of fans and alumni as well.

I’m Digger Callaway, the “Voice of the Prairie Dogs”, and please join me in this retrospect as we celebrate over 100+ seasons of NSU football. From the humble beginnings as a team of Nebraska villages to the mighty empire with national appeal that stands today, the journey will tell the tale of a football program that wouldn’t be denied.
