[NU Sports] Nebraska

[Exequiel Sevilla]

I was chatting with a neighbor about this tonight, a Nebraska-native who
attended Army (and was Field Artillery, king of the battlefield).  He was
quick to point out that Nebraska has the most Academic All-Americas in the
country.  That was easy enough to check:

All-Time Academic All-Americas (all divisions and classifications):

1.  271 - Nebraska
2.  214 - Notre Dame
3.  162 - Penn State
4.  161 - MIT
5.  140 - Stanford
6.  132 - Augustana
7.  119 - Bucknell
8.  118 - Texas
9.  114 - Emory
10. 113 - UCLA
16. 100 - Michigan
16. 100 - Michigan State
20.  96 - Purdue
21.  95 - Wisconsin
21.  95 - Minnesota
24.  89 - Northwestern
24.  89 - Illinois

Eight Big Ten schools in the Top 25 (now nine).

the COllege Sports Information Directors of America.  And I expect that
getting on this list depends on a lot of things, including being nominated.
