Throwback Thursday: University of Nebraska Football Team in 1894
Husker football is back and we are celebrating with this week’s #ThrowbackThursday!

The University of Nebraska first played football in 1890. Four years later, in 1894, the team won the conference championship with a 7-2 record. This image of the 1894 champions is owned and published by Townsend Studio. Townsend Studio has been in continuous operation since it was founded. It holds a collection of glass plate and acetate negatives of early Lincoln and early residents.
