Road Shoving by Husker
Five Key to Big 7 Crown
"Can Nebraska win on the
road?" An answer to this ques
tion, running foremost in the
minds of Husker followers, may
hold the key to the Big Seven
cage crown.
Eight conference games remain
on the Cornhusker schedule and
six of them will be away from
the familiar Coliseum maples.
Coach Harry Good's cagers de
part this week for a two-game
trip to play Kansas and Okla
homa. The Huskers maintained the
loop leadership Saturday night in
the 45-43 rock-'em-sock-'em vic
tory over Colorado. However,
with a 4-0 record in Big Seven
play, Nebraska is 'a long way
from top honors. All four vic
tories have been achieved at
home.
Oklahoma, riding along a close
second with a 5-1 record, will
get its first Big Seven action
Husker Teams
In Heavy Slate
Swimming, wrestling, track and
basketball teams of the Univer
sity of Nebraska will be in action
this week.
Oklahoma's swimming: team
will be here Saturday for a 2
p. m. meet. The Sooner wrest
ling: team meets the Nebraska
mat team at 7:30 p. m. Satur
day. Ed Weir's track team goes to
Columbia Saturday, for a test
which should provide a preview
of the indoor championships. Mis
souri has been installed as a
favorite to repeat as indoor cham
pions at Kansas City, Feb. 25-26.
Coach Harry Good's basketball
team, currently the hottest in the
Big Seven, meets Kansas at Law
rence Saturday night, then moves
on to Oklahoma for a crucial game
against the Sooners Monday.
in two weeks against the Husk
ers at Norman on Monday.
PIIOG ALLEN'S Kansas Jay
hawks will be seeking to avenge
an early 52-34 loss when they
entertain the Huskers at Law
rence Saturday night.
The Jays and Nebraska boast
the best over-all records among
loop teams with marks of 10-6.
NEBRASKA'S remaining home
schedule lists Missouri for a Feb.
21 apeparance at the Coliseum and
Oklahoma in a game which could
decide the title on March. The
rest of the slate sends the Husk
ers to all other loop strongholds.
Claude Retherford has been the
backbone of the Good-five. As
Claude goes, so have the Husk
ers gone. His play against Colo
rado was below par, although he
provided the winning punch with
17 points. He boasts the best
scoring average in the league, a
15.25 per game showing.
Bus Whitehead, closely guarded
by Kansas State last Monday and
Colorado Saturday night, slipped
in the point production but not
enough to keep him from the
loop's runnerup position.
