Listening to, watching Husker history a hobby for Jacobsen

That’s three TD catches for Westbrook today, tying Clarence Swanson and Johnny Rodgers. Coyle’s kick is good and it’s 28-0!

If you’ve ever heard these words from Nebraska radio play-by-play announcer Lyell Bremser, when No. 12 Nebraska played at No. 13 Kansas on Oct. 19, 1974, you’re probably a die-hard Husker fan.

How, exactly, did Jacobsen, a 54-year-old Nebraska fan, just happen to hear a 42-year-old radio broadcast of a Husker football game?

He just goes to his office in his Wahoo home, consults his color-coded DVD library of some 1,000 radio and television broadcasts of Nebraska football games, and he sits and listens.
