Linebacker Bo Ruud, center Brett Byford and cornerback Zack Bowman will serve as captains for the 2007 Nebraska Cornhuskers football team. Just for the sake of discussion, if you only had to choose one of these guys to be a team captain, and you did so based both on leadership and ability, which of them would you select?

Bo Ruud would be the pick. His dad was an all-american LB for the Huskers in the 70s, name of Tom Tuud. His brother led the defense recently, Barrett Ruud. I believe their grandfather also played football at Nebraska. The all went to high school in Lincoln and are extremely popular at Nebraska. Bo Ruud will also be among the top 2 or 3 tacklers on the defense if he stays healthy. The Ruud family is legendary at Nebraska!
