Dully Nebrasknn Spurts Editor Nebraskas Cornhuskers could be the wrench in the Big Seven conference title race this year at least if they continue perfoming as they have in recent scrim mages. Promotion of Bill Mueller to the varsity last week seems to have given the backfield an added punch. Mueller's hard running should ease some of Coach Potsy Clark's backfield worries. Rumors still persist that Ne braska's 1948 and 1949 games might be the last with Minnesota. The Golden Gophers have been very receptive to a series with Michigan State and would have to terminate the Nebraska series to schedule the Spartans. Accord ing to a Minneapolis sports uriW Nphraska is not eivine the Gophers the kind of testing com petition it wants in eariy non conference play and unless the Hnskprs recover from the slumu thev have been in since the start of the war Minnesota may change erid foes. " It seems that Bernie Bierman, Gopher head man, is not in favor of early run :: ay games. Mavbe this year's sauad which seems to have gained the spirit and enthusiasm which was so l.trkine last vear Will be able to wirte a different ending for Min nesota and a Minneapolis sports writer. At least we have to ad mit that those are very painful words. If we were passing out orchids we'd send a dozen to Coach Potsy Clark whose enthusiasm and spirit has not only been caught by his players but by most of the student body on campus. If spirit alone could win games Mr. Clark's bovs would win them all! The 1948 edition of the Corn husker team will have plenty of opportunity to stage upsets this season. We say this because as the 1948 season opens we can see the Huskers as logical favorites in only three of their ten games. Nebraska rates a slight edge at this time over Iowa State, Colo rado and Kansas State. In the other games they will probably be rated as underdogs. We think the Huskers will be tough stumbl ing blocks regardless of how they are rated. In tomorrow's edition of this paper Cub Clem, Lee Harris, Fritz Simpson, Bob Phelps and yours truly of the Daily Nebras kan staff will start a weekly chart of winning predictions for the Nation's football teams. expenditures, guarantee paid and gain respectively.
