The Dailv Nebraskan
Paae 5
Kansas, K St. Iead
In Big Eight Race
By Elmer Krai
The Big 8 basketball season
has started out according to
form with the two Kansas
teams in the lead as of to
day. However, after the mid
semester break, both teams
should get a harder workout
than they have been getting
so far.
Kansas State is currently
tied for first with their
neighbor Kansas U. Nebras
ka, Colorado, and Oklahoma
are tied for third, fourth and
fifth respectively, while Iowa
State, Missouri, and Oklaho
ma State hold up the rear
with winless records.
K-State 3-0
Kansas State has plenty of
evidence to show that they
are no flukes in racking up
a 3-0 conference and 12-1
overall record. They are led
by center Bob Boozer who
has a 25 point average and
Wally Frank with a 14 pt ave.
Not only do the Wildcats have
two men who can score con
sistently but they also have
reserve strength. In addition
to Boozer and Frank, the
Cats have four guards who
can score from the outside
when the going gets tough
under the baskets. This week
end the Wildcats travel to
Missouri where they face
Sparky Stalcup's "r o u g h
house five" Saturday night.
Moving over to Missouri,
the Wildcats should find plen
ty of competition waiting for
them. The Tigers, riding the
crest of an eight game los
ing streak will also be look
ing for their first conference
win. Although Stalcup's crew
was beaten by Nebraska last;
Monday, some superior shoot-1
ing from the outside was ex
hibited by sophomore guards
.Joe Scott and Rich Pulliam
Most of Missouri's losses
! can be attributed to a leaky
defense. The Tigers have al
lowed an average of 71 pts
per game in three conference
games, which is first in the
league in that department.
However, Misouri is third in
the conference in scoring with
a 63 pt ave.
Sooner Fair
The Oklahoma Sooners,
who were figured to provide
most of the competition for
Kansas State, have started
out fairly well. The Sooners
have beaten Missouri and
Iowa State while losing to
Kansas State rather convinc
ingly. 90-45 last Monday. Ok
lahoma and Nebraska are tied
for second behind Missouri
in giving up the most points
to the opposition. Both teams
have averaged 64 pts which
is more than they have aver
aged offensively. Oklahoma's
attack is led by Center Den
nis Price and forward D e 1
Heidebrecht. The remainder
of the team is sophomore
dominated.
Oklahoma State has a dis
mal start. The Cowboys have
lost three conference games
due to an anemic scoring
punch, the main scoring
threat for Coach Henry Iba
has been Arlen Clark, the
only returning veteran this
vear. Iba's charges have dis
played an adequate defense
and as the season progresses
the Cowboys expect to aid
Clark in the scoring depart
ment. This weekend the 0
Staters will suspend workouts
until final exams are ended.
On January 24, the Cowboys
will meet Oklahoma in a re
gionally televised game.
