Prior to coming to Missouri , Powers was an assistant coach under both Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne at Nebraska . He was an all - state high school quarterback from Kansas City , Missouri , and also played on Devaney ' s first team at Nebraska in 1962 , earning three letters as a Husker . Powers played safety for six years with the American Football League ' s Oakland Raiders . He started for the 1967 AFL Champion Raiders and in the second AFL - NFL World Championship game . He had a one - year stint as head coach at Washington State before leaving to join the Tigers . After leaving Nebraska , Powers took an unranked Washington State team into Lincoln , Nebraska and knocked of the 15th ranked Huskers . The following year he went to Lincoln with another unranked team , the Missouri Tigers and he pulled off a victory over a # 2 ranked Nebraska team . The Missouri Tigers would lose 25 straight games to Nebraska before their next victory over the Huskers , prompting Tiger fans to wonder what might have been had he stayed at Missouri . During his tenure at Mizzou , Powers compiled a 46 - 33 - 3 ( . 579 ) record , including four straight bowl appearances from 1978 to 1981 . His best seasons came in 1980 and 1981 , where he posted back - to - back 8 - 4 records .

Mizzou also played in the 1980 Liberty Bowl , a loss to Purdue and the 1983 Holiday Bowl , losing to a BYU Cougars squad , led by a then - future National Football League MVP for the Super Bowl XXIX winning San Francisco 49ers , Steve Young . On October 24 , 1979 , the NCAA ' s Committee on Infractions publicly reprimanded MU for a violation of NCAA Constitution 3 - 2 related to a failure to exercise institutional control . The violation was in regard to the use of a fund established outside the university for the purpose of paying Powers for debt he assumed while negotiating to become MU ' s head coach . NCAA regulations require the university ' s involvement when its coach receives a cash supplement related to duties he is performing on the institution ' s behalf , and the NCAA found that MU had failed to do so in this case . Since leaving the Tigers , Powers worked in a variety of sales and administrative jobs . For the past several years , he has been in executive sales at Bommarito Automotive in St . Louis . He should not be confused with Warren Powers ( defensive end ) who once played with the Denver Broncos and who currently heads the " One Nation " team as a Regional Vice President at Primerica Financial Services . In 2002 , Powers was head coach of the Show Me Believers , a National Indoor Football League team that played its games at the Family Arena in St . Charles , Missouri , about 20 miles west of St .
