Watch Bugeaters

For over a century, fans of college football have followed the victories and defeats of the University of Nebraska football team, "The Cornhuskers." However, the origins of the N.U. football team have always been a mystery...until now. This is the untold story of the first decade of football at Nebraska, from 1890-1900, back before they were known as "Cornhuskers" and went by such names as "Old Gold Knights" and "Bugeaters." Featuring interviews with nebraska football historians Mike Babcock, Mark Fricke, and David Harding, "Bugeaters" also features historic recreations using actors and animation to tell this vivid tale of how football was first played on the Great Plains. Written, Directed, and Produced by Jim Fields, "Bugeaters" is sure to appeal to fans of Nebraska football and those who are interested in the history of the game.
