Doug Krause '72 was a two-time Associated Press All-American, earning Second-Team All-America honors in 1971 and garnering Honorable Mention All-America recognition in 1970. A two-time all-MAC selection at guard, he earned first-team distinction in 1971. Krause also played defensive line for the Red and White, notching 70 solo tackles and 75 assisted tackles as a senior and was tabbed the team's Outstanding Defensive Lineman. With 30 tackles against Bowling Green in 1970, including 17 solo stops, Krause set Miami's single-game record for tackles and its single-game mark for solo tackles. He anchored a Miami defense that ranked third in the nation in total defense in 1971. Originally a walk-on to the team, Krause went on to serve as tri-captain as a senior. Playing from 1969-71 for Miami, Krause was tabbed the team's most valuable player in 1971.
