Nebraska quarterback ready for Colorado
Former back-up raised in Kansas
LINCOLN, Neb. — Brook Berringer grew up in a part of Kansas with more Kansas, Kansas State and Colorado fans than Nebraska supporters.
The Associated Press
He even went to some Colorado games with a friend who had season tickets.
On Saturday, he will meet No. 2 Colorado on the field — as third-ranked Nebraska's quarterback.
He is the key for the Cornhuskers in
their bid for a national championship.
Berringer, a 6-foot-4 junior from Goodland, recently had been slowed after suffering a lung injury. But Berringer said Tuesday that he won't hold anything back against undefeated Colorado.
"I came here in a tough situation where there were a lot of people who maybe had some questions whether I'd be able to get it done," Berringer said.
"To most people who know anything about football, I think I've proven we can move the football, that we're still Nebraska and we're going to get it done."
er and all-conference basketball player, Berringer has been known more for his throwing ability than his onion game.
A former high school baseball pitch-
Patience prevailed.
But no recruiting pitches came from Colorado.
He settled on Nebraska when Tony Veland and Clester Johnson also were quarterback recruits. He redshirted in 1991 only to find himself in 1992 as a back-up to a talented freshman named Tommie Frazier.
Option quarterbacks take a beating. Berringer prepared for each game as if he would be the starter, knowing one play was all that separated him from leading the Cornhusker attack.
"I think Brook handed the wait very well. I think he is a guy who knew he was good enough," his high school coach Mike Johnson said yesterday in a telephone interview from Goodland.
His chance came early this season.
Frazier suffered from recurring blood clots in his right leg and was sidelined for the season. Berringer began taking the starting snaps.
But Berringer suffered a partially collapsed lung in his first career start against Wyoming on Oct. 1. The following week he damaged the lung again playing a half in a 32-3 win over Oklahoma State.
He sat out the first half of a 17-6 win over Kansas State two weeks ago. Against Missouri, he was ordered not to run options or audible into plays likely to get him into contact.
Berringer averages 4.8 yards a carry and has scored five times.
Berringer doesn't have as many moves as the shifty Frazier, but coach Tom Osborne said Berringer may be as fast as Frazier in a race.
"There haven't been many people giving me a chance all season. I don't know what it's going to take," Berringer said. "I suppose winning a national championship is the only
