Cyclones Upset Minded;
Huskers Heavy Favorite
By Jim Swartz
Nebraskan Sports Editor
The undefeated Nebraska
Cornhuskers and the Iowa
State Cyclones square off to
morrow in a 2:00 p.m. match
at Memorial Stadium. The
game will be the conference
opener for both teams with
the nationally ranked H u s
kers the heavy favorite.
In his preseason outlook Cy
clone head coach Clay Staple
ton said, "Our big hoo ".'" ie
to f& for few foes.
The Big Eight is simply not a
sophomore league so we must
figure to get caught short
from time to time."
Iowa State has gone to pla
toon football for the first time
this year leaving the Cyclones
to depend on their first year
men, a move which Stapleton
notes "leaves them with little
hope."
The Huskers go into the
game with the nation's top of
fensive game. The Huskers
hold the weight advantage on
both offense and defense, be
ing four pounds heavier on
defense, and seven pound on
offense.
The Cyclones will pin their
upset hopes on wingback Er
nie Kennedy and quarterback
Tim Van Galder, Van Galder
has loosened his throwing arm
in the Cyclones first two vic
tories while the Iowa State
"inning game has been
termed "improved."
The Scarlet defensive corps
will be out to improve their
showing. The only starter who
has been listed as doubtful for
the contest is tackle John
Strohmyer.
Nebraska holds the series
edge of 47-11-1 following their
14-7 victory over the Cyclones
at Ames last year. The Cy
clones finished with a 0-7 con
ference record last year to
take last-place.

Respectively; The Officials
By Jim Pearse
"Hey, you , put the
flag back in your pocket."
"You're walking the wrong
way, Fink." "Kill the fox. Kill
'im, kil 'im!"
Hold it right there fans.
Those unlucky (or unlikely)
men who infest our fields of
combat each Saturday stick
ing thorny penalties under
blossoming touchdown drives
are called officials; with re
spect.
They look like prisoners in
their black and white striped
shirts. And they are marked
for identification, too, by their
hats: umpire (red), field
judge (green), and referee
(white).
With all those things against
them, this group has to stand
out in the open and wave red
hankys in the air to let 50,
000 snorting onlookers know
they are about to take chunks
of real estate from the rich
to give to the poor.
Knowing all this how can
you make these men such ob
jects of persecution? How
can you long to fill them full
of pins?
Because you paid your
money, came out early to
fight the traffic and crowd
to get to your seat, and in the
rush forgot the bottle on this
cold afternoon.
You think you came out
early? Those guys whose
pants are so short their socks
show had to be at a pre-game
conference four hours before
kick-off. They left home on
Friday and most likely won't
start back until Sunday. And
when it comes time to fight
the elements all he ever has
is his constitution.
What I have said so far
does not mean I condone their
actions, or feel pangs of pity
for their breed.
In the Big Eight there are
32 officials, and none qualify
for sympathy. Noting their
average age and weight I im
agine a frustrated coach meets
with a pretty fat and sassy
gentleman when questioning a
ruling.
The conference sports an
over-all official of 44.5 years
of age, 5-11, 190 pounds. With
brains. Thirty members of the
lot are college graduates.
Seven have masters degrees
and two doctorates.
Can you see a giant line
men standing between an Ar
my colonel, a former assis
tant attorney general, a col
lege professor, and a public
relations man explaining how
he really didn't clip on the
last play?
Indubitably the 1 i n e m a n
would be thoroughly repri
manded for his tactical blun
der. But wait. Don't call the
man in Made & white that
name yet. The poor man has
to carry his-$17,000 taxable
income home in his red flag
and turn it over to his wife
and three children when they
blow the whistle.
Wouldn't it be great to give
these men a lift? I mean we
cheer for our squad, for the
opposing squad, for the band,
for a fellow fan when he
catches a stray kick; so why
not take time to be respect
ful to the officials?
A moment of silence in their
honor would be appropriate
after the first play of t h e
game, followed by a loud

Awakening
By Mick Rood
Doubt still lurks after two games. Two games, two
opening offensive bursts, two close ball games after that.
The offense sputtered after a while and the defense leaked.
Coach Devaney, already into the third game of the sea
son, is still shifting personnel ... not a good sign. Mike
Kennedy and the Blackshirts are still somewhat dazed after
the Stein treatment. No cure in sight except for experience
in some spots. Not much time for that.
Any other year and these worries would be buried under
the joy of the first two victories. But national prominence
is a new experience.
It will be a matter of playing game by game, correct
ing mistakes week by week. I don't think a glaring weakness
has been discovered ye.
Passing has been good but not utilized to a great extent,
just well mixed, in the first game at least. Any defense
that gets 40-some passes thrown at It by a competent offense
is going to give. Certainly the rushing game has proven
itself, line included.
We still have a number one possibility. October 30 in
the Tiger pit, of course, will be the big test. Kansas might
have been a threat but injuries have hurt. Oklahoma doesn't
show the old fire. Oklahoma State may strengthen Into an
other adequate threat.
As for the other contenders, Purdue won't be able to
stand the Big Ten schedule and we can stand ours. Texas
may be the obstacle.
