NU Highly Favored

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN

The Cornhuskers, boasting a
three-game winning streak of the
young season, will be favored to
breeze to an easy win over Kansas
State Saturday in Memorial Stad-
& 1? . ,

Huskers them
selves, how
ever, are not
a n t i c i pating
such an over
whelming vic
Wildcats. Coach Bill
G 1 a s s f ord
and his
charres well
r em ember
the 6-6 dead
lock chalked -up
by the
two teams last year as they
fought through Manhattan mud.
The tie was termed an "upset"
by the experts, who picked Ne
braska as a much more potent
Midwestern outfit. But when
the Huskers landed in a tie for
the cellar position in the Big
Seven race, it was Missouri, not
little X-State that shared the
honors. The 'Cats finished out
of the Big Seven conference cel
lar for the first time since 1942
fighting Nebraska to a tie.
It will be a group of hungry
Wildcats which invade Husker
land this week. Coach Bill Meek's
young team has a presently un
impressive record of one win
against two losses. They won their
opener over little Bradley, then
dropped games to Cincinnati and
Missouri. The Tigers gained Te
vengefor their 12-14 loss to the
Wildcats in 1951 by thoroughly
overpowering Coach Meek's team,
26-0 last Saturday.
Although the Wldcats will no
doubt be set to play their best
frame of the season against the
Huskers, the top-heavy odds
against them are almost sure to
prove true. Coach Meek will
again have his men keyed for
another great stand with the
Scarlet, but the weak K-State
crew would have to play way
over their heads to upset the
dope bucket this time.
Nebraska looms as one of the
powers of the Big Seven, destined
io stay away rrom the cellar door,
and probably out of second divis
ion this year, with a host of
leading ball earners to call up
on, Coach Glassford should have
little trouble keeping a fresh,
rugged Quartet of backs on the
fied throughout the contest.
Nebraska backs hold four of
the top five positions among con
ference ball carriers on the sta
tistics chart. Buck McPhail of
Oklahoma, a fullback who set a
national rushing record last sea
son, leads the pack with 265 yards
on 35 carries. Bob Reynolds. John
Bordogna and George Cifra fol
low in that order. The trio has
chalked up 66 Husker points in
three games.
Reynolds, a senior who earned
all-America honors as a sopho
more, appears to be on the way
back to national stardom. He
leads Big Seven scorers with a
30 point total, and ranks sec
ond in rushing with 261 yards
on 46 carries. He also rates high
among the kickers with 38.0
punting average. His nine con
versions lead extra point spec
ialists, and he owns credit for
the only conference field goal
this season.
Junior quarterback John Bor
dogna has scored three touch'
downs, netted 219 yards on 56
carries, and hit eight of 17 pass
plays for 87 yards. His rushing
yardage is to be commended,
Most quarterbacks have low to
tals, due to the number of times
the were set back when they are
forced to "eat" the ball when
they are rushed on pass plays.
Cifra, a sophomore fullback who
has 18 points to his credit, has
gunned the Husker ground of
fense with 209 yards on 32 plays
from scrimmage.
Young Wins Game
Predicting Contest
The games are getting harder
and harder to pick as the Crystal
Ball contest rolls on week after
week.
This week it was the North-
w e s t ern-Vanderbilt tie that
stumped the armchair snort
scribes. The Wildcats were tied
20-20 by Vanderbilt, the team that
upset the dope.
All three winners came from
the Phi Psi house this week.
First place went to D. A. Young
who was the fuorth entry. Sec
ond place went to Jerry Ander
sen who entered just two papers
later then the winner and third
was Joe Smith, the seventh en
try. All three of the boys picked
all the games correctly except
for the tie.
First prize is five dollars, sec
ond prize is two dollars, and third
prize is one dollar.

Hobe Returns
Hobe Jones, who led Coach Ed
Weir's Husker track squid to Big
seven indoor track championship
during 1950-1951 season, has re
turned from the service. The mid
die-distance speedster plans to en
roll in the University next semes

Jones, who left the University
as a sophomore, was Nebraska's
top runner in the 440, 880 and
mile events during indoor track
season before he was called to the
reserves. He was high scorer in
the Big Seven indoor track and
field meet at Kansas Citv. which
Nebraska won shortly before he
was called.

Husker passers John Bor

Nebraska has not passed enough

Nebraska's two starting cen

taking it easy in early workouts.
Bob Oberlin has a slight charley
horse and Verl Scott is both
ered by a tee bruise. Although
Glassford expects both men to
be in top shape Saturday for the
Wildcats, he is still grooming
Dick Watson for a starting role
if the two injured men should
not be given a medical O. K.
Statistically the Huskers are do
