Huskers Dominate Individual Statistics
Goal
Dust
By Jim Swartz
Nebraskan Sparts Editor
In the unpredictable world of collge football,' Nebraska
tops the UPI college coaches ranking for the third con
secutive week. The AP sports writers and broadcasters
didn't treat the Huskers so kindly, as they gave the Scarlet
a third place ranking, behind Arkansas and Michigan State.
The Huskers slipped to the third place rating this week,
trailing the leading Razorbacks by 78 points. The rating is
not much of a credit to the Huskers, who were a mere
three: points behind top-ranked Texas last' week and the
Husker 41-point stomping of Kansas State. Saturday's scor
ing rampage put the Huskers at the top college scorers,
with a 183 point total.
The Big Eight statistics were released today, and it
was a pleasant surprise to see four Huskers in the League's
top five scorers. What is surprising is Nebraska's Charlie
Winters, who is tied for the scoring lead with Colorado's
Frank Rogers at 30 points. Winters is the Huskers third
string sophomore fullback whose hard, brilliant running has
proved to be a ground gainer and a crowd pleaser so far
this season.
Rogers is Colorado's kicking ace; he has kept the
Golden Buffs games and himself in the scoring lead with
his talented toe. His longest field goal tally of his seven
season successes, was from 48-yards out.
Nebraska entertains Colorado at Memorial Stadium
Saturday, meeting the Buffs in the Huskers homecoming.
This will be the second homecoming game in a row for
the Buffs. They didn't fare too well in their homcoming
game, having to play Iowa State to a 10-10 fourth quarter
tie. ; ....
A possibility is that Colorado might have baen looking
ahead to this week's game and let the Cyclones surprised
them with the tie. However, Colarado is still undefeated
for the season, with a record of 3-0-2. Both of the Buff's
ties have come against a common foe, Wisconsin 0-0 in their
opener and Saturday's Iowa State game. Their 36-0 win over
Kansas State compared with Nebraska's 41-0 victory.
Nebraska blanked Wisconsin 37-0 and rolled over Iowa
State and are picked as winners over the young Buffs., ,
In interviews with Wildcat players Saturday, the Kansas
players noted that both Colorado and Nebraska have a fast
backfield, but pick the Huskers to top the Buffs. Nebras
ka's game, the Wildcat players agreed, would be Missouri,
with either team capable of winning. The players declined
to say which team they thought would have an adventure
but said that the winner would be whoever got the "breaks."
ine wildcat player continued, "you can't make mis
takes against a team like Nebraska."
In Saturday's contest the Wildcats cut down consid
erably on their mistakes compared to previous game per
formances; the miscues they made, however, proved cost
ly. A short punt, a fumble and an intercepted pass were
all converted to touchdowns by the Huskers.
Although the typical Wildcat fan tried to change the
subject to basketball, he was quick to point out that the
Wildcats do have a good defensive unit, final score being
no indicator.
"The defensive unit is probably one of the nation's best,"
the fan exclaimed, "It actually plays two games, one in
the first half and one in the second half, because the of
fensive unit isn't ever able to get a drive going."
Whether the fan knew it or not. his guess held true
Saturday as the Husker offense dominated play throughout
the game against the tired but determined Wildcat defense.
An abundance of talent at
their positions has helped
push Colorado's Frank Rogers
and Nebraska's Charlie Win
ters into a tie for the scoring
lead in the Big Eight Confer
ence, at the halfway point of
the season.
Nebraska's "Choo-Choo"
has stormed across the goal
line five times wlrile gaining
118 yards in 29 carries this
means a six-pointer every six
th tinn ht is handed the ball.
Jn a head-to-head meeting,
McCall outdid Iowa State's
Tim Van Galder by 71 yards,
142-71, to take over the total
offense leadership. This is his
second stand at the top for

Thank You!
The expected is near. Nebr
aska has five of the team stat
istical leads in the Big Eight
Conference vand has taken
dead aim on the sixth as it
attempts to become the first
to sweep all six in a season.
Just missing the grand
sweep by one last year, Nebr
aska now has to catch only
Kansas in pass defense to put
the Cornhuskers atop all six.
Since the start of the season
the Jayhawkers have been
best in pass defense, this wee!$
showing an 80-yard allowance,
Nebraska is second at 98.8,
and the margin is shrinking.
In fact, a general tightening
of the Nebraska defense in the
last three weeks !ias seen the
Cornhuskers drop their aver
age almost 25 yards in rush
ing, 54 in passing, and 70 over
all. This move by the Nebraska
Black Shirts is not onlv shown
by the lead in rushing and
total defense and the second
spot in pass allowance, but
also in the scoring column.
In the last three games no
points have gone on the oppon
ent s side ot the ledger.
Offensively, the Nebraskans
now have a 424.4 average in
total offense to become the
first team in the Conference
to rack up over 2.000 yards
and score over 150 points 183
to be exact let alone 100
poinfe. Both of ihese totals,
however, are still off the re
cord ! pace set by the 1965
Oklahoma team, which scored
466 points and gained 4,817
yards.
Also apparently out of tlie
Cornhuskers' reach is the
seasonal rushing record of
3,91Hbv the same Oklahoma
unit. I The Nebraskans are
goiilgj along with a lofty 293
mak . : 1 ,
Te lead for the Nebraskans
in ' pass offense this is the
first time this year they have
been atop this area come
after a firsthand battle with
Kansas State, last week's
leader. The bulge for the
Lincolns is the slimmest of
their collection, 131.4 to 130 for
the Wildcat'.
In the other two offensive
categories, Missouri is second i
best with a 261 rushing aver-
age and 321 total mark. De-j
