Bob Smith, number one full
back on the Nebraska Corn
busker football team, was by far
the best fullback on the field last
Saturday when NU upset favored
Missouri, 25-19. Smith, rated sec
ond best to Bauman last season,
proved that, he was no soft
touch as he rambled through the
Missouri defenses time and time
again. Smith has been named by
Coach, Bill Glassford to captain
the Huskers against Kansas next
weekend.

Master Magician
Improving with every game,
Dan Brown completely mysti
fied both the fans and the Mis
souri players with his ball hand
ling antics. Playing with confi
dence and poise, Brown threw his
first TD pass of the season to
Andy Loehr who went into the
end zone standing up. Brown will
be calling signals next Saturday
when the Huskers meet KU in
an all important contest for post
season bowl honors.

"On To The Orange Bowl" be
came the cry of the Nebraska
rooters after , the Cornhusker
eleven dealt a stunning blow to
the Missouri Tigers' dreams of a
bowl bid with a 2519 victory over
the Tigers.
The Huskers now have a 3-1 con
ference record, and are in undis
puted second place.
Nebraska's ground game played
the leading role, in the upset of
Missouri as the Huskers ground
out 331 net yards rushing. Further
proof of the superiority of the
Husked ground game came in the
fact that the Huskers didn't lose
one single yard by rushing, which
is quite a feat for any team.
' Smith Dazzles
Bob Smith, senior fullback, fi
nally came into his own with a
dazzling performance that left the
Tigers bewildered. Smith gained
91 yards on 17 carries, and could
always be' counted on to pick up
the few vital yards when needed.
Ron Clark and Willie Greenlaw
were almost as equally dazzling
as they picked up 64 and 85 yards
respectively.
On the line the play ( of Charlie
Bryant and Don Glantz stood out.
Also playing outstanding games
were always dependable Andy
Loehr and Dennis Korinek.
Singled out for special praise
was Quarterback Dan Brown.
Brown guided the Huskers expert
ly and tossed a pass which ac
counted for one of the Husker
tallies. Brown showed his even
biggest skeptics tha. he deserves
to be running with the first unit.
Nebraska led all the way except
for a seven-minute period in the
second quarter when they trailed
Mizzou 7-6.
Korinek Scores
The first NU touchdown came
as a result of a combined attack
by the first and second units. The
first group moved the ball from
their own 84 to the Tigers 16, from
where the second unit took over
and scored. Dennis Korinek did
the honors by scoring on a de
layed pitchout from 13 yards out.
The next Nebraska TD came aft
er a 65 yard sustained march with
Dan Brown sneaking the last yard.
The Scarlet and Cream's third
touchdown came early in the third
quarter. After a series of fumbles
Nebraska retained possession of
the ball for 63 yards and the touch
down. The final 22 yards to the

from Dan Brown to End Andy
Loehr.
The Tigers eame roaring .right
back after the third NU touch
down, but the ever-alert Charlie
Bryant recovered a MU fumble on
the Husker 31. From there, the
Huskers marched 69 yards in 12
plays, the starters moving the first
21 yards and the second unit cov
ering the rest of the distance.
Korinek's 21 yard run on a
pitch-out sparked the drive, and
then Don Comstock carried the
last 10 yards for the final Husker
points on another late pitch from
quarterback Don Erway. '
Missouri took to the air then,
and scored twice before time ran
out on them.
KU Win Needed
As the situation now stands, if
Nebraska beats Kansas this Satur
day and Colorado scores a victory
over Kansas State in their Nov.
20th battle, Nebraska will be on
its way to the Orange Bowl. All
this is so provided that Oklahoma
doesn't get upset in its remaining
conference games.
The forthcoming Nebraska-Kansas
game should be a tougher one
than most people expect. This Sat
urday is Homecoming at the KU
campus, and by this time the Kan
sans should be in the mood for
any kind of a victory.
