According to the '"plan" Ne
braska's football team was
supposed to take the field,
win the toss of the coin, hold
Missouri down in the first
half, have a gala halftime
ceremony and then the Husk
ers were supposed to come
back and crush the Tigers.
But aone of these things
happened. There wasnt even
a card section Saturday, for
the 38,000 fans who turned out
for Homecoming in chilly
weather see Missovi dom
inate a defensive game and
win, 16-7,
Next week the Huskers
travel to Lawrence for a
game with Kansas which will
be a test to see if the Corn
huskers can bounce back aft
er Saturday's defeat
Nebraska turned the tables
on everybody by playing its
best defensive game of the
season, but couldal get a
sizeable march going to push
over more than seven points.
Husker Downfall
The downfall of the Corn-
Coach Says
Husker coach, Bob Devan
ey, made one point clear aft
er Saturday's defeat, -"We're
not giving up on these kids
they've done a good job for
us and we know theyU come
back and play good football.""
The Husker coach contin
ued, ""I believe this is the
kind of team that feels bad
about losing, but I'd be very
disappointed if they didnt
bounce back. "WeH find out
this week, but I have confi
dence theyH bounce back
okay,'" Devaney concluded.
Statistics
huskers was what they did
with the ball when they had
it
The NU passing game
which had been so strong in
the early part of the season,
gained only seven yards for
the Huskers, who needed a
strong aerial attack to bal
ance against the tough Tiger
defense.
But three interceptions of
Dennis Claridge passes, three
fumbles, which set up all the
passes abruptly stopped Husk
er drives.
MU Shows Poise
The Missouri team showed
all the poise of a champion
ship team in the victory
which was even bigger for
the Bengals in the statistics
column.
Missouri's defense took the
spotlight with the massive Ti
ger forward continually step
ping Husker runners with
little or no gain.
The Missouri secondary
was brilliant in covering NU
receivers. Many times the
Huskers had their hands on
the ball of Husker passes, but
the jarring pursuit of Bengal
defenders forced tne ball out
of the hands of the Huskers.
Even the lone Husker touch
down didnt come from an off
ensive play.
Martin Intercepts
johnny Roland, Missouri's
star halfback who gained 95
yards in 14 carries for the Ti
gers, threw his only pass of
the afternoon into the arms
of Husker defender Noel Mar
tin. Martin grabbed the ball en
the 12-yard line and tight
roped his way down the East
"deline behind five blockers
to score Nebraska's only
touchdown f the afternoon.
John Faiman's extra point
which tied the game, 7-7,
closed out all the NU scor
ing after Martin's 88-yard run
with five minutes left in the
second quarter.
Theisen Fumbles
One of the fumbles Dave
Theisen's fumble of a punt on
the Husker's own 26-yard
line) set up a Mizzou score
when the Huskers were in
striking distance with the Ti
gers in the lead, 10-7, with
about three minutes left in
the third quarter.
Missouri ground out ine
yardage in just six plays with
Jim Johnson, MU starting
quarterback, plunging the fi
nal yard with 14:26 left in th
Final quarter.
Warren Powers blocked the
attempted extra point but Ti
gers had a commanding lead,
15-7.
NU Drive Fails
Nebraska look like it was
going to march right down
the fieid and score after it
gained 20 yards in two plays,
including a 13-yard slam by
Bill '(Thunder) Thornton, who
saw his first action in three
But on the third play Con
rad Hitchler, Missouri's All
Big Eight end, swiped a Clar
idge pass to end the threat
Minutes later, the Huskers
held the ball for eight plays
but once again a Claridge
pass went into the arms of
Andv Russell, Tiger senior
fullback, to stop the final
serious drive.
Tiger FG
A Missouri field goal broke
the tie in th swnnd half. T
After a Tiger punt fell into
the end zone, Claridge
fumbled on the first play
from scrimmage to set up the
Bengal field goaL
Nebraska's defense dug in
and pushed the Tigers back
to the NU 28-yard line where
Bill Leistritz split the uprights
for three points with 8:12 left
in the third quarter.
Attempt Fails
Leistritz also tried a field
goal in the first quarter, the
first time the Tigers had the
ball, but his attempt was no
good.
Missouri opened the scoring
late in the first quarter when
Claridge fumbled on the Ti
ger 46.
After an incomplete pass,
Roland raced around right
end but was tripped up from
behind by speedy Kent Mc
Cloughan. The ball fell out of Roland's
arms when McCloughan bit
him, but the ball rolled into
the end zone and out of
bounds to give the Bengals the
initial score.

Devine
Relieved
Coach Dan Devine of Mis
souri's victorious football
team expressed a relieved
air more than that of happi
ness in post game interviews
Saturday.
Devine cited his squad as
the most suprising team he'd
had.
"Nebraska did .an excellent
job of defensing us," he com
mented. If their receivers
could have caught some of
those passes that hit them in
the hands, it would have kept
their drives going," he con
tinued.
The Tiger mentor described
NU as "very well coached,
hard hitting and good sports,
who play good hard foot
ball."
The Tiger coach had praise
for Husker halfback Willie
Ross and lineman Bob Brown.
"I'd put Oklahoma in the
driver's seat," commented
Devine when asked about the
Big Eight. "The S o o n e x s
catch Nebraska and Missouri
at Norman and they've al
ready beaten Kansas. "We're
not noted for winning .at Nor
man," the Tiger coach concluded.
Outstanding sophomore half
back .Johnny Roland ol MU
had praise for Nebraska's
Lloyd Yobs.

By BOB KRALLE
Sports Staff Writer
After Saturday's Eig Eight
Conference football action.
Oklahoma football fans should
be starting a rush on the
Sooner ticket .office for ducats
to the Nov. 17, game be
tween the Sooners and Mis
souri. The automotive industry
would not think of copying old
models, but the Sooners 'evi
dently have, as they ran like
the pre-1959 Sooner models in
running over the Colorado Bu
ialoes, 62-0.
Oklahoma scored its dirst
touchdown ven more quickly
than Liston knocked out Pat
terson, needing only a min
