Is Hagel's seat the one Tom Osburne ran for and lost?

I was almost as shocked by Osburne's loss as I was for Bud Wilkinson's loss around 1956 in a Senate bid

Actually, Tom Osborne ran for governor. When people found out he was for granting in-state tuition to illegal aliens, his goose was cooked.

Hagel is (ostensibly) a senator. Osborne was a congressman. A do-nothing, in-over-his-head congressman at that. He had no more business representing Nebraska in Congress than he did coaching water polo.
