Monday, Oct. 31, I960 The Nebrasxan Page 3 Missouri Komps NU Needs To Match By Hal Brown Nebraska failed to score for the third consecutive year against Missouri Saturday as the Tigers won their seventh straight game this season with a 28-0 romp over the Huskers in a homecoming battle. The Huskers are now faced with the task of winning one of their three remaining games with Kansas, Okla homa State, and Oklahoma to match last year's 4-6 rec ord Saturday s loss leaves Coach Bill Jennings team with a 3-4 overall mark and a 1-3 record in conference play. Nebraska has failed to win more than two conference games In a season since Jen nings took over in 1957. The Huskers turned the trick last year with wins over Ok lahoma and Colorado. The only conference win this season came against Kan sas State lay a 17-7 count Ne braska must face a strong team Saturday at Lawrence. Kansas dropped a 21-7 de cision to first-ranked Iowa Saturday and the Jayhawks were without the services of their number one ground gamer, Bert Coan. Even without Coan, Kansas gamed 261 yards compared to 234 for the Hawkeyes. The Jayhawks have three wins and one tie in the Big Eight. First Place Tie Missouri's romp over the offensive Huskers was the worst beating of the season for Jennings' crew and kept the Tigers in a first place tie with Colorado. Missouri and Colorado are both 4-0 in the conference and the two teams tangle Saturday at Columbia, Mo., in a game that should decide the Big Eight Orange Bowl representative. Nebraska's suppot edly tough defense was riddled by Missouri's end sweeps as the Tigers rolled to 287 yards on the ground while holding Ne- nraska to 85 yards. Missouri ran 70 plays to only 48 for the Huskers and the Tigers . enjoyed a 16-9 .edge in .first downs. Six of Nebraska's first downs came via the air lanes, a phase of offense that the Hnskers have generally ignored in their 4two-plays into the middle of the line and then punt" offense. Nebraska hit six of 14 for ward passes for 100 yards while the Tigers connected on four of seven for 56 yards. Each team intercepted one aerial. The Huskers contributed to the Missouri cause by losing five of seven fumbles on the muddy field. Missouri lost two of four fumbles.

Pniyersify of Nebraska on MU Coach Has Praise For Purcell Missouri coach Dan Devine praised Husker right end Don Purcell for his bruising play against the Tigers Saturday. "Purcell is a great end and he should be all-confer ence," Devine said. The Mis souri coach also had words of praise for Nebraska tack les George Haney and Roland McDole, linebackers Don Fricke, Thunder Thornton, and Mick Tingelhoff. "Nebraska's defense was sound and I was surprised that we scored so much," De vine said. "I think the weath er hurt Nebraska and I was pleased that we were able to hold Fischer down.1' Devine cited Norris Stev enson's 69-yard run for a third-quarter touchdown as the turning point of the game. "That was our third touch down and three touchdowns changes the complexion of most football games," De vine commented. In comparing Nebraska with other teams, Devine said, "Perm State has better players, but Nebraska plays 'Hardest Hitting' Stevenson called Nebraska and Penn State about equal, but said, "Nebraska is the hardest hitting team we've played. Fricke gave me a lot of trouble. Every time I got the ball, it seemed he was looking me right in the eye." "Nebraska is real tough, but I don't know about their offense. They don't nse many sweeps," AD-American can didate Danny LaRose said. -"Nebraska is the toughest team we have faced exclud ing Penn State," LaRose con tinued. Tiger halfback Mel West said. "Nebraska hit real Pood and they pursue as wef as any , t tne teams we have played. The linebackers are real good. They bottled np our sweeps more consistent ly than any ether team." October 31st.
