The 2012 College Football Hall of Fame class was announced Thursday, and no Huskers made the cut despite having former quarterbacks Tommie Frazier and Eric Crouch — as well as outside linebacker Trev Alberts — on the ballot.

Needless to say, the omission of any Huskers was a surprise to some (mostly due to a rule barring back-to-back selections from the same school — Will Shields was selected in 2011), and some people aren’t happy. The World-Herald’s Tom Shatel wrote that he predicted Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch would be inducted, and that Tommie Frazier was deserving. Here’s a breakdown of what some local, national and regional media members have to say about the 2012 ballot:

When a Hall of Fame announcement makes as much news for who doesn’t make it (Tommie Frazier), you’ve got a problem.

Tommie Frazier: 33-2, 2 titles, 4 conference championships, 6,266 yards and 83 TDs. NOT GOOD ENOUGH, APPARENTLY.

So they announced the newest crop of college football Hall-of-Famers and forgot to include Tommie Frazier again. Pretty sad.

If it doesn’t include Tommie Frazier, honestly, is there REALLY a College Football Hall of Fame?

>> Spencer Hall, EDSBS.com and SBNation.com:

Tommie Frazier isn’t in the CFB Hall Of Fame because there is no statute of limitations on murdering 11 men in one night. #Fiesta!
