Was watching ESPN last night and they were showing Miami vs Nebraska 2002 National Championship game. Jonathon Vilma unloaded a brutal tackle on WR Ben Zajacek. What happened to him? Was he a Sr?

Between the Vilma hit on Zajicek and the Trent Darby hit on Dana Brinson in 1988 I think. Those were two of the hardest I've ever seen our guys hit. De cleated...both of them.

I thought it would have been targeting if the rule existed at the time. Watching the replay it was actually just a crushing hit, but clean.
John Ruud hit on Kelly Phelps and Mike Ruckers hit on Joe Gordon during a Mike fullman punt return
That was a game where Nebraska pretty much sucked from start to finish. Ucla had good teams back then.
Yup we was horrible that day. I remember the year before in Lincoln Steve Taylor threw for 5 TDs against UCLA.
