check this out...

looks like a fun time...

Brandon Rigoni vs Mark Manning YouTube Showdown | Nebraska Sports Blog | Nebraska Football | Husker Tickets | Nebraska Athletics

from Illinoismatmen.com- "Looks like they had a lot of fun with this, even had a trophy and flyers for the event.

To set this up, Coach Manning, and a former Husker football player, who is currently an assistant strength and conditioning coach,were talking smack about wrestlers vs football players, and they made a little wager.The wager was that Manning could stop Rigoni once out of five tries from reaching the endzone. Coach/AD Tom Osborne got wind of it, and set up this competition after football practice. See for youself."


i would like to maybe see zabriskie vs. mansfield in football, and then round 2 in wrestling

good find...that was pretty cool

That was pretty hilarious!

great video......team building is so important

its not just team building, its good exposure for both programs. i forgot to mention that mark manning is their head wrestling coach.

I totally agree, but do you think either program this week, talked more about or remembered the Baylor Win or the Big Showdown....:wink: twenty years from now they will all remember the Big Showdown

Manning is a good coach. Really has their program going the right direction.
