“it is a proud day for Nebraska because the NCAA football champions University of Nebraska Cornhuskers are in the city to be honored today. At 11:30 on the south lawn of the White House, they were honored by President Clinton. We are very proud, of course, of coach Tom Osborne, his coaching staff and the players of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Coach Osborne has taken his teams to 22 consecutive bowls. He has the best winning record of any active college coach in the Nation, with over 82 percent wins. We are also very proud of the fact not only do we have three all- American players on the team this year, but we have three academic all- Americans, including the outstanding academic all-American in the United States, which gives the University of Nebraska now more academic all-Americans by far than any other school in the country. Coach Osborne, we take our football very seriously out there. We liked the event so much today, we think we will make it an annual affair. Congratulations.”
