So who claims him more?  UW or UM?

Andra Franklin was a best-of-both-worlds hybrid who could block and tote the rock. Born and raised in Alabama, he turned down Bear Bryant to come to Nebraska.

A four-year letterman, Franklin gained 1,753 yards in his career. That is the most by a NU fullback, and almost 200 yards ahead of second place (Dick Davis, who followed Solich in the 1960s). When he graduated, Franklin had the ninth-most rushing yards in Nebraska history (currently 36th). Franklin was an All-Big Eight selection in 1980, his senior season.


As any Osborne-era fullback will tell you, their primary role was to block for the I-back. The I-back in Franklin's junior and seasons (Jarvis Redwine) rushed for 2,213 yards on a ridiculous 7.1 yards per carry. Obviously, Marvelous Jarvis and the offensive line deserve a ton of credit, but I guarantee that Franklin's blocking and threat as a runner made Redwine's life much easier.

Malik Harrison was a third-round pick (98th overall) of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Ravens. He has played the last four years with the Ravens, starting 27 of the 61 games he’s played. Harrison has accounted for 120 tackles and is a key member of the Ravens special teams. 

• Led Ohio State in tackles as a junior (81) and senior (75) and finished career with 205 total tackles
• Outstanding senior season included 16.5 tackles-for-loss, 4.5 sacks and four pass break-ups
• Only Andy Katzenmoyer (23 in 1996), Ryan Shazier (17 in 2012 and 22.5 in 2013) and Matt Wilhelm (19.5 in 2002) had more TFLs from the linebacker position than Harrison’s 16.5 in 2019
• Career statistics include 29.0 TFLs for 107 yards, 10.0 sacks and nine PBUs
• Played in 53 games over the past four seasons and started 28 times
• A force on three consecutive outright Big Ten championship teams (2017, 2018, 2019)
