DAILY NEBRASKAN

By liob Miller
Echoes Are Dying.
With the exception of a few
games that will be played this
week and the bowl games that will
be played on the lirst day of the
new year, the 1941 session of grid
iron wars is now past history . . .
Looking back, it has been a rather
disastrous one for many teams,
Nebraska included in the lot . . .
There are fewer teams on the elite
roll of the undefeated this year
than in many years previous.
Gophers on Top.
Topping the list of the unde
feated and untied is Minesota, na
tional champions . . . The Gophers
were picked by every system as
the top team in the nation and
boast a record that consists of
eight wins with nary a loss . . .
Also on the list of major teams
with the same record are Duke
Duquesne and Notre Dame, a tie
mars the Irish record, and these
teams have proven that they are
national leaders . . . Midland and
Kearney, both Nebraska colleges,
were listed with the previous
teams for neither team has bowed
in defeat.
Thompson at End.
Speaking of the Gophers, the
Minnesota aggregation paid a high
tribute to a Husker lineman at the
end of their season . . . Marvin
Thompson, 171 pound end, was the
player ... In the Gopher contest,
Marv stood out with his precision
tackling which was good enough
to be pointed out by most of the
Minneapolis papers following th
game . . . Bernie Bierman singled
Thompson and Wayne Blue out as
the individual standouts of the
day ... As is the custom at the
end of the season, the Minnesota
team goes into a huddle and out
of the huddle comes an all-opposition
team ... At the end spot was
Marv Thompson and at the other
wing was Bob Motl of Northwest
ern . . . Quite an honor considering
it was his first start of the sea
son. Remember Him?
George Sauer, former All-Amer-ican
fullback at Nebraska and
now a coach at New Hampshire,
was accorded a place on the All
star East-West A team, a team
that was composed of the best
players to perform in the Cali
fornia classic for all time . . . The
team was chosen by the members
of the northern California foot
ball writers association . . . Sauer
was a member of the 1934 team
and was the standout in that year.
Lack of Color.
Major Jones hit the nail on tho
head when he said that the Rose
Bowl game between Oregon State
and Duke would not be as notable
as it might have been had the
Oregon school chosen Missouri...
The midwest far surpasses the
east in color and on top of that
the Duke coach, Wallace Wade is
definitely not liked on the west

coast . . . His Alabama team was
not the right team for the Bowl
game back in 1931 and Wade bore
the brunt of the sports scribes'
attack ... He took (Juite a beat
ing and for that reason has been
berided ever since ... It seems
that after he had shipped his team
into the California district somo
days before the game, and the
western scribes were all primed
for fireworks in the shape of
scrimmage and so forth . . . The
fireworks failed to come and all
that Wade could do was let his
team stretch their muscles . . .
This gave the scribes a starting
point that terminated in Wade's
riding at their hands.
Another opponent team has
come out from Iowa State with
five Tigers, three Huskers and one
Oklahoma, Kansas and Kansas
State player . . . The three Ne
braskans that were named include
Preston at end, Abel at guard and
Zikmund in the backfield . . .What
surprises me is that Dale Bradley,
the All Big Six Husker, was not
included . . . Dale accounted for
both touchdowns against the Cy
clones and did plenty of broken
field running against them.
A. P. Ratings.
The A. P. final grid ranking for
the year are as follows: Minnesota,
first; Duke, second; Notre Dame,
third; Texas U., fourth; Michigan,
fifth; Fordham, sixth; Missouri,
seventh; Duquesne, eighth; Texas
A. & M., ninth; Navy, tenth . . .
With the exception of placing
Michigan before Texas and Mis
souri before Fordham, these were
our sentiments too.

of Nebraska football team missed
a conversion try against Iowa Uni

Second Place
In Conference
Win Over Sooners Puts
Nebraska in Two-Way Tic
For Runner-up in Big Six
With the final standings of four
of the Big Six conference teams
decided ten days ago, Nebraska
cinched a second place tie with
Oklahoma in the Husker's season
wind up last Saturday when they
nosed out the Sooners.
Coach Don Faurot's Tigers from
Columbia, running true to pre
season doping, were undefeated in
their five conference games and
won the Big Six crown for the
second time in three years.
Oklahoma Starts First.
Oklahoma won their first three
conference game, defeating Kansas
U., Kansas State, and Iowa State,
and finished the season by taking
a sound thumping from Missouri
and dropping a one point decision
to the Huskers.
Getting off to a good start, Ne
braska opened their Big Six com
petition by beating Iowa State
and K. U. on successive Saturdays,
followed by two point losses to
Missouri and Kansas State, and
wound up their season with a win
over Oklahoma.
K. U. in Third.
Playing good ball on alternate
Saturdays, K. U. dropped their
first, third and fifth conference
games to Nebraska, Oklahoma and
Missouri, and took decisive thump
ings in all three. In their second
game, the Jayhawks outpointed
Iowa State and bounced back from
a drubbing at the hands of the
Sooners to beat Kansas State and
provided the biggest conference
upset of the season in their fourth
game.
Defeated by Oklahoma and Mis-
ried man ... He kept it quiet dur
ing the entire season and an
nounced it Monday . . . Quite a
speech the little Colonel, Bo Mc
Millin made last night . . . Dale
Bradley and Fred Preston were
named on the INS Big Six All Star
team.
