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. The Hus-

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."
