Looking back to past cases to decide another is fine
for law but not for football teams.
The Husker bandwagon, which In many cases has NU
in the ... I won't say it, but it's that thing in Miami, has
seen the Cornhuskers in only one test, and that was more
of a pop quiz.
WHfc tiie hour exams starting tomorrow, the thriving
optimism which is being shoved down the Husker throats
by fans seems unwarranted at this stage of the game.
Nebraska is missing many things this year that were
assets last season.
To illustrate, a hypothetical situation:
Last season Bill (Thunder) Thornton separated hit
shoulder and sprained his ankle, forcing him to sit out of
a few Husker victories.
But this was no tremendous disaster as Warren Pow
ers, an experienced back, and Gene Young, who came on
like gangbusters, made up for the deficiency.
What about this year?
Don't shudder or even think about this one Denny
Claridge drops back for a pass and is creamed by three
great big linemen. Wham! Out for three weeks with a
oh ... try fractured hand for size.
Then in goes Fred Duda to crouch behind Michka for
three games. Duda is a good quarterback, but Claridge
is a great and is a triple threat. We also lose our best
punter in such an unthought of switch.
So, just a note don't count the cattle before they're
in the corral.
Now let's put on the Optimistic Husker Hat, and say:
This season the Huskers have shoulder pads above water
in the Big Eight race after struggling for air before last
season. , ,
The league is even tougher this year than last Mis
souri is about the same (but doesn't have Johnny Roland);
Oklahoma is going to beat USC this weekend which is
enough said; Kansas' Gale Savers is a year older, and
Colorado and Oklahoma State are much improved. K-State
and Iowa State haven't changed much, but both can rise.
So things look pretty interesting this season espec
ially if the Cornhuskers rise even higher that's an IF
in there.
This corner looks for a second place finish and NE
BRASKA 14, Minnesota 6 (Not much experience for the
Gophers, but those Big Ten boys like to bit . . hard).

sitting out an idle day as the
Chicago Cubs beat Bob Gib
son and his mates, 6-3.
Nationally ranked teams
had a shaky first week of ac
tion. Oklahoma was trailing

on six touchdown drives while
showing little luster in a 14-0
victory over weak Colorado;
Miami was whitewashed by
Florida State and Northwest

provided the big surprise as
conference teams opened the
season with intersectional
contests. The Wildcats looked
good in every department
while romping past Brigham
Young.
CAMPUS Rudy Johnson
earned the Star of the Week
award for his opening touch
downs and accompanying
extra points against South Da
kota State.
Husker halfback Ron Pogge-

weeks with a fractured hand

punting for Nebraska.

Nebraska's football team
leaves Lincoln at noon today
for Minneapolis with the in
tention of giving the untested
Minnesota Gophers an open
ing defeat
Sixty-five thousand people
are expected for the Saturday
encounter, and not all of them
will be rooting for the home
team. Nebraska is expected
to have a sizable delegation
on hand.
Nebraska has won only six
games in the series, with
Minnesota winning 26 and two
games ending in ties. Minne
sota won the last game, 26 to
14 three years ago.
In recent practices Coach
Devaney has been sending the
Huskers through defensive
drills designed to prepare
them for anything. Minnesota
is noted for its ground game
and ennd-it-out tactics, but
Devaney feels the Gophers
may surprise Nebraska with
some wide running and pas
sing.
Junior Bob Hohn of Beat
rice, right halfback who ran
for 64 yards last week against
South Dakota State, including
a 51-yard gallop for a touch
down, has moved up to the
first unit, alternating with

son is the starting fullback
after a 16-polnt splurge last
week.

In another change, sopho
more Mike Kennedy of Oma
ha has been switched back to
guard, which he played in
high school, from the right
halfback spot.
Though the Husker first
string emerged relatively un
scathed from the South Da
kota State encounter, some
players are out with injuries.
Ron Poggemeyer, punter of
note, has a fractured hand
and will be unable to suit up
for about four weeks. Sopho
mores Gary Brichacek and
Bill Earl are out for the sea
son and will undergo knee op
erations. Right guard Don
McDermott and halfback John
Vujevich will miss the Minne
sota game due to a knee end
ankle strain and a pulled
thigh muscle respectively.
Husker starters Dennis Clar
idge, Larry Kramer, and
Lloyd Voss are all from Minnesota.
