Under warm Oklahoma skies,
probably some 24 to 27 red jer
seyed Nebraska football players
will cavort tomorrow afternoon,
performing formations and move
ments designed to wrest a victory
in this man's game of football
fr6m Sir Thomas Stidham's
vaunted, but defeat-susceptible
Oklahoma Sooners.
Nebraska blocking should
shew a definite, if not a very
great improvement over the
three previous garnet this year.
Line Coach Link Lyman has
been working hard and long, al
most till dark every night this
week, perfecting fundamentals
and teaching hard hitting, sure
blocking to hit Husker linemen,
and the Blffer, aided by the
able Glenn Pretnell, has been
doing the tame thing with the
backs.
Runs destined for touchdowns,
halted by ineffective blocking
heretofore, should be successful
tomorrow If the teachings of the
Husker coaches are carried out to
any extent at all.
Offensive line play. Nebraska's
weakest point this year, has def
initely been strengthened this
week. How well it will function
rid one knows but the prediction is
Nebraska by a field goal or one
touchdown.
Horace is very interested in the
intramural finals that were played
last night, after this column had
been writen. He thinks that in
tramurals are just about as im
portant as other athletic activities
here t.t the University, because,
he says, "look at all the guys
that get to play In these inter
house games. All the fun and

Machine Seeks to Add
to Succession of Wins
BY NORMAN HARRIS.
With perhaps the Big Six title
hanging in the balance, Nebraska's
Scarlet and Cream grldders will
take the field tomorrow afternoon
at 2 o'clock to battie the powerful,
three time winners this year, Ok
lahoma Sooners.
Although the Huskers have
dropped games to Minnesota and
Iowa State, and tied with Indiana;
although Oklahoma has beaten
Rice. Texas, and Kansas, betting
odds are pretty even, with a little
edge to the Sooners.
Weather reports should give the
Huskers a break, as the tempera
ture has been dipping steadily in
Soonerland and the Huskers have
been drilling in chilly atmospheres
ranging from 48 to 55 degrees all
week.
Oklahoma's ends, Frank Ivy and
pleasure they get is a lot more than
what comes out of any varsity
sport."
Of course, Horace understood
when it was explained to him
that all big universities have an
official team to represent it
among the ranks of other big
universities and that the stu
dents who aren't really good
enough to make this team pull
for their fellow students to win
against ether official university
; teams.
i Horace agreed that the athletic
, setup was okay and that intra
. murals got its share of attention,
! and went to sleep again dreaming
I of Harry Hopp sending Hermie
Rohrig over right tackle for the
first of Nebraska's touchdowns
over Oklahoma.

The Biffer's starting eleven
should average around 195 to 197
pounds by game time. Oklahoma's

scales at about a 187 pound aver
age. The Sooner backs averaging
only 174 bring the average down,

j Jones Boys
By Jim DeWolf.
Omaha Central has sent another
one of her sons to Biff Jones'
Cornhusker football squad In Leon
ard Muskin, the most even tem
pered man on the team.
Muskin started from the third
string and came up to the first,
but his rise is not as easy as it
sounds. At the start of the sea
son, Muskin was deep down on the
third string. But due to his deter
mination and excellent play he
was promoted to the seconds and
from there he shifted into high
gear and won a starting berth.
Nebraska will see lota of Muskin
in the next three years as ha is
only a sophomore.
From the standpoint of age, Ln
ni is the baby of tns squad, be
ing only 18 years old, but from
the standpoint of height and
weight he does not take a back
seat to many. He stands 6 feet, 1
inch and weights 196.
For 17 of his 18 summers be
was a social hermit supreme, but
last summer he blossomed out Into
a, social lion, so say his friends.
The change came on a trip to
Montana.

NEBRASKAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER2l7T938

Tomorrow for the first time in
e-ght years, Nebraska will go into
a Big Six game the underdog
at least in the opinion of most
Midlands scriveners and that po
sition won't hurt them a bit. For
a long time now the Huskers have
been going into games with every
thing to lose and nothing to gain,
but the worm has edged over a
little this fall
A team, when it has been win
ning all the time, naturally can't
get fired up against the boys it is
accustomed to beating but when
the betrodden boys rise up, and
commentators begin their bemoan
ing and belittling of the once
powerful, it's time to watch out.
The Huskers were underdogs
the time they walloped Kansas in
1930. That was in the Big Six's
early days, but Nebraska had been
the big noise in the old Missouri
Valley loop for quite some time,
altho they had lost 20-7 to Okla
homa earlier in the season.
Then there was 1936. The Husk
ers had a great team that year,
but the boys had an off day
against Pitt, and there was some
doubt thet they could handle Kan
sas State's Wildcats, who had
given Iowa State a 47-7 drubbing
the Saturday before. Such senti
ment must have aroused the lad
dies, and as a result there was a
40-0 massacre in Memorial sta
dium Saturday.
Yes, we are leading up to a pre
diction. The Huskers, their start
ing lineup having finally been hit
upon, are improving by leaps and
bounds, as some million and one
football buga have been saying.
The Sooners are tough, but they
aren't unbeatable. They haven't
beaten a really great team yet,
and aren't so experienced that they
can't make mistakes with the best
of them.
However, If they get past the
Nebraska game, they'll have gone
a long way toward an undefeated
season and it's beyond common
sense to think that our Huskers
would like to see Oklahoma be
come the Big One of the Big Six
after having been that themselves
for eight or ten years.
Now we offer you, with fan
fare and all Nebraska over Okla
homa. Maybe a tie would be bet
ter, for last week the Huskers
tied when we picked 'em to win
perhaps they'd win if we picked
them to tie, but tt can stand at
that
In the other Intra-Big Six game
it looks like Iowa State over Kan
sas. It's about time for Indiana
to click, too, and we like them
over Kansas State. Missouri should
take care of Washington In the
other game.
