Daily Ncbraskan sports experts had a tougn time deciding uie
staffs All Big Seven team.
The experts moved Bob Fuchs to the guard position. The stellar
play by the Missouri center forced the experts tj move him to guard
in order to keep him on the team.
Big Seven champions, Oklahoma, placed three men on the first
team while second place Missouri put four men on the initial squad.
Kansas had two clavers worthy of the mention while Nebraska and
Colorado placed one man each.
Oklahoma Cage Squad
Holds Key to Big Seven
Thlt to the first In aerlea of article
about future Oomhusker opponents. Other
articles will appear from time to time.
At Colleens will meet Dec. 6
at 7:45 p. m. in the first floor
lounge of the Foods and Nutri
tion building. Mrs. Lucy Hustead
of the Lincoln Better Business
Bureau will speak.
This year's Oklahoma basketball
team has one of its toughest cage
schedules. All the Sooners' oppo
nents are state universities except
CCNY and Syracuse.
Sooner Coach Bruce Drake has
booked a home-and-home series
with Coach Jack Gray's Texas
Longhorns, a fast, colorful outfit
that runs like rrairie quail. The
Sooners have also scheduled II
linois of the Big Nine for a home-
and-home series, playing at Ur
bana this season. Illinois was
ranked eighth in the nation by
Dunkel last year.
Play Affile
Oklahoma plays Ohio State at
Norman, Dec. 18, and meets
CCNY, second best team in the
east last year and rated seventh
nationally by Dunkel, at Madison
Square Garden and plays Syra
cuse's Orangemen on the same
trip.
Probably the toughest non-conference
foe of all is Hank Iba's
Oklahoma Aggies, Missouri Val
ley conference champions and
twice conquerors last year of St.
Louis's National Invitational tour
nament kings. !
Then comes competition in the
strongest basketball league, from
top to bottom, in the nation, the
Big Seven Kansas Sate, Missouri,
Iowa State, Nebraska, Colorado,
and Kansas.

stabilizer who could hold the team
together when the going was
tfcugh hurt the green Oklahoma
team last year which returned
only Paul "Lefty" Courty from
the NCAA runners-up starting
five of 1947.
The Sooners last year finished
with a 13-9 Record and were
ranked 42nd in the nation by the
Convcrse-Dunkel ratings. The
Sooner sophomore crop is report
ed to be the poorest in years.
Frosh Prospects
Wayne Glasgow, who had a
freshman year with Alva, Oklan
Teachers, will probably see con
siderable action. Marcus Freiber-
ger, the leggy, 6-11 lad from
Greenville, Tex., high school, is
eligible for his first college bas
ketball but is inexperienced.
Losing only Harly Day and Bob
Jones, the Sooners, like nearly all
their opponents, largely retain
their last year's club. But there
were 41 college teams in the na
tion ahead of Oklahoma last year,
nearly all of whom retain the
same playing nersonnel tnai
earned them that rank.
Sooners Improved
The Sooners should have Im
proved sawy and poise this sea
son but their position is still much
like that of an automobile pinned
behind a string of 41 other cars,
with very little chance to pull out
around them into the main traffic
stream.
Oklahoma tied with Missouri
for second place in the Big Seven
conference last year. This year
the Sooners could well take the
top position.
Coach Bruce Drake emphasizes
careful organization, smart pass
ing and ball control. Drake's squad
is noted for its brilliant free
throwing and tight guarding and
their ability to vary their strategy
for each opponent.
