Nebraska's Cornhuskers came
Up with their best game of the
season when they played the Buf
faloes from Colorado and swamped
them 37-20.
With Willie Greenlaw pouring on
the steam, Nebraska ran up a 21
0 lead with 0:55 gone in the first
quarter. Willie streaked 47 yards
after he fumbled a 'pitchout and
put the Huskers ahead 14-0. Four
minutes later, he intercepted a
Buff pass on the Big Red five
yard line and romped 95 yards
down the west side line for an
other TD that put Nebraska ahead
by 21 points.
Colorado then made an attempt
to get back on the sod of Me
morial Stadium. John "The Beast"
Bayuk and Bob Stransky carried
the ball as the Buffs marched 97
yards to score before the first pe
riod had ended. With two minutes
gone in the second quarter they
scored again. That put them within
shouting distance 21-13On the fol
lowing kick-off, Game Captain Rex
Fischer fumbled and the Colorado
ans recovered on the Cornhusker
20. Four plays later the Buffs were

on the 23. From that time on the
Huskers were never seriously
threatened although Colorado ran
the score to 28-20 in the third stan
za. Don Erway lead the team in
scoring with 19 poinst coming on
two touchdowns, one field goal,
and four extra points. Also, Erway
stood out as the prominent quarter
back of the afternoon. His signal
calling was flawless; bis decep
tion in his favorite play, the belly
series, was better than ever.
Greenlaw once again turned in an
excellent game. Willie seems to
have a hex on the Buffaloes. Last
year he scored two touchdowns
and proved a thorn in the Buffs
side all afternoon. Again Saturday,
the terror from Portland, Me. up
set the hopes of 2,000 Colorado
faithful who traveled through a
blizzard to watch the 15th meeting
of these two Big Seven teams.

GREENLAW . . . quite a day's
work.
Jerry Brown, a guard who was
transplanted from fullback just be
fore the Kansas State game,
proved that he had learned the
complexities of the guard position
well enough to give the Buffs trou
ble all afternoon. Many times
Brownie was thereto meet the
thrusts of Bayuk and Jack Becker
before the hard-charging full
backs could gain any ground. An
other sophomore gu rd, Don
Kampe, also bothered the Buffa
loes all afternoon. Captain Rex
Fischer played his usual hard-driving
game. Fischer came through
with valuable yardage all after
noon. Many other Cornhuskers
turned in what may be termed
their best games of the season to
date.
Becker and Bayuk were head
aches throughout the long Satur
day matinee. Junior tackle Harry
Javernick and center Don Karnos-

sequences of a five yard sweep by

lack-luster crew. Karnoscak1' suf
fered a broken hand which will
probably hurt the Buffs the rest
of the season.
All in all, this was probably the
best game the Big Red turned
in during the near-completed 1955
season. This week the power-dominated
Sooners from Oklahoma in
vade the campus for what has
turned-out to be the conference
championship showdown. Its a lit
tle early to make any definite fore
casts for the contest, but it would
be safe to say that the Sooners
should maintain their 42 point-per-game
average they hold over Big
Seve opponents. Oklahoma has at
least three teams that could win
the conference race hands down.
Nebraska, if it had all available
hands suited up could bold down
the score, but not win over the No.
1 team in the nation.
GAME NOTES
Rex Fischer became a member
of the 60 minute club against the
Buffaloes. The Huskers were
hampered by injuries and two of
these were in the No. 2 and 3 left
halfback .slots The first
quarter which took 15 minutes to
play by the scoreboard clock ac
tually was timed as a 45 minute
affair by several press box
watches . . . Guard Jerry Brown of
Minden displayed excellent savvy
as a lineman. Brownie asked to be
placed at guard after Jim Murphy
suffered a broken leg. He is an ex
ample of the great spirit that has
dominated the Cornhusker football
scene all season .... Many play
ers have been drawing plaudits for
their performances, but one man
that has been grossly over-looked
by the fourth estate is Head Coach
Bill Glassford. Saturday's game
was put on by one of the best-
coached teams ever to trod on
Memorial Stadium sod.

As the curtain is about to fall
on the 1955 gridiron seson, the
plot slowly hac taken shape in the
Big 7 championship play. It now
has been narrowed down to a two
team race featuring the defending
champion Oklahoma Sooners and
the up and coming Nebraska Corn
huskers in the title role.
The Huskers started off their sea
son very slow losing to Hawaii, Ohio
State, Pittsburgh and Texas A&M.
They then caught fire and rolled
over five straight conference foes,
the latest a 37-20 defeat over the
once highly-regarded Colorado Buf
faloes. Other wins were over Kan
sas State 16-0, Missouri 18-12, Kan
sas 19-14, and lows State 10-7.
Meanwhile, the other principal play
er, OU, has extended its confer
ence win streak to 27, downing the
Cylcones 52-0, a crew with which
the Huskers .had to fight all the
way down the wire. They also rol
led over the Buffs 56-20, Missouri
21-0, Kansas 49-7 and K-State 34-7.
On the basis of these comparative
scores, the Sooners, already shoo
ins for the 1956 Orange Bowl tilt,
should rate a four touchdown fa
vorite. Shaeffer's
