Ted Watts “Setting the Stage” Nebraska Football Artwork

Great Players and a Bowl Bid This framed Ted Watts artwork looks back at Nebraska football from 1949 through 1961, bringing together several standout Huskers from an important period in the program’s history. Featured are All-Americans Bobby Reynolds, Jerry Minnick, and Tom Novak, along with the Fischer brothers Rex, Cletus, Ken, and Pat. The background incorporates the Memorial Stadium scoreboard from Nebraska’s memorable 25-21 victory over Oklahoma in 1959, a win that ended the Sooners’ streak of 75 consecutive conference victories. An identification card accompanies the artwork and maps each player and historical element shown in the composition.
