Former Husker Offensive Lineman Zach Wiegert to Be Inducted Into the College Football Hall of Fame

Another Husker is headed to the College Football Hall of Fame. Offensive tackle Zach Wiegert was a huge (literally) part of the Pipeline in Nebraska’s 1994 national championship season. Wiegert was a consensus All-American and Outland Trophy winner his senior year. From his huskers.com bio “In his 46-game career, Wiegert, a three-year starter at right tackle, gave up just one sack en route to earning All-Big Eight honors in 1992, 1993 and 1994. He became one of only six linemen in NU history to earn first-team all-conference honors in three consecutive seasons. He earned second-team All-America honors in 1993, helping Nebraska to an undefeated regular season and an Orange Bowl appearance.
