Set three school marks last year; passing, total offense and touchdown passes (18). Was all-conference sophomore and junior years. A great scrambler. Pro scouts agree he could play at any university. A genuine All-America candidate."

He's already made the CIC All-Star team in '64 and *65 before missing last season with a neck injury suffered just before the first game. The little scrambler holds ten Omaha offensive records and was NAIA's 3rd leading passer and 4th in total offense in 1965. His 2,181 yards in total offense was record. There is very little he can't do and pro scouts are sizing him up as a possible defensive back. He returned interception 80 yards for score against Eastern New Mexico in '65. Is going into third season as Omaha starting quarterback. Secondary education major. Was All-City and Shrine Bowl selection as a halfback-quarterback in 1962 at Omaha South. A fine prep cage star, he was named the MVP in the 1962 Omaha Prep Summer Classic basketball game. Lettered in basketball at Omaha in 1963." Briscoe is pictured on the left.

Briscoe, Marlin, 1945-
Description
The prospectus from the 1967 OU football media guide foretells "its biggest year in history under great pressure." Despite the dismal 1966 season, the prospectus is optimistic about 1967, largely due Marlin Briscoe's return. "Brightness on the horizon is the return to action of two-time ALL-CIC quarterback Marlin Briscoe, who missed last season with a neck injury. The scrambling field general set nine OU records during an 8-2 season in 1965. Needless to say, his absence last fall was chiefly responsible for the collapse which dulled what might have been Omaha's finest hour. The little quarterback is going to be under intense pressure week after week from opponents who will mark him as the main way to stop the varied Indian attack that netted 381 yards per game in 1965 under Briscoe's direction."
