Nebraska holds substantial
leads in four of six major
team statistic categories after
six games according to official
Kg Eight listings this week
The Huskers, who have yet
to face the big three; Missou
ri, Oklahoma and Kansas, lag
only in pass offense (second)
and pass defense.
Nebraska last week figured
among the nation's top ten
teams In total and rushing of
fense, scoring and rushing de
fense, headed by a No. 1 na
tional ranking in rushing of
fense with a 286.2 average
over five games.
Saturday, against Colorado,
Nebraska boosted that aver
age a trifle to 287.0 with 293
yards on the ground against
the Buffaloes, and further for
tified their Conference statis
tical leads in total offense,
rushing and total defense.
Nebraska has averaged 383.3
yards over a six-game span,
some 17 yards better than the
figure they posted a week ago
to rank eighth nationally in
total offense. Defensively, Ne
braska has limited six foes to
an average of 194 yards a
game, and only 81.5 yards per
game on the ground.
While the overall picture
favors the Nebraskans statis
tically, some of their glitter
over the weekend went to out
standing offensive perform
ances by Kansas and Okla
homa and a gritty defensive
show by Iowa State. Kansas
gamed 444 yards against Ok'
lahoma State to push its total
offense mark to 312.7 behind
the Huskers, and Oklahoma
picked up 441 against Kansas
State for an overall 309.4 of
fensive mark.
Iowa State, the pass defense
leader with a 76.5 average,
limited Missouri to a mere 18
yards on the ground, to move
into the Conference defensive
race behind Nebraska and
Missouri.
The Kansas constituents of
the Big Eight Conference have
gained a near-monopoly on
umference individual stasti-
cal rankings as the 1963 season
heads into its seventh week of
play.
Big Eight leaders from the
Kansas institutions are: Gale
Sayers, Kansas, rushing, with
555 yards on 81 carries for a
6.9 average; Larry Corrigan,
Kansas State, passing, with 48
of 99 completions for 499
yards; Steve Rcnko, Kansas,
total offense, 226 rushing and
404 passing for 630 total yards;
and Doug Dusenbury, Kansas
State, punting, 37 kicks with
a 41.9 average.
In addition, Kansas State's
Ralph McFillen is threatening
Dick Limerick of Iowa State
for the pass receiving lead
and the Wildcats' Ron Barlow
stands second in punt returns
behind Oklahoma State's Lar
ry Elliott.
Sayers, playing only part
time against Oklahoma State-
picked up 104 yards in seven
carries against the Cowboys to
regain the Conference rushing
leadership from Iowa State's
lorn Vaughn, 555 to 536. The
week before, Vaughn posted a
nine-yard lead in Conference
figures to stand third among
the nation's rushers while
layers ranked fourth nation
ally.
Limerick maintained his
hold on two categories, pass
receiving and scoring, though
his lead in each was pared
over the weekend. He has 20
receptions for 276 vards fol.
lowed by McFillen with 22 for
257 yards. Rudy Johnson of
Nebraska scored twice against
oioraao to move a point be

Blaik Sub Opinion
Satisfies Devaney
Colonel Earl (Red) Blaik,
long-time army coach, pre
dicts that colleges will retur
to two-platoon football in 1964,
Writing in a recent issue of
Look Magazine, Blaik de
dared, "When the rules com
mittee (of the National Col
legiate Athletic Association)
meets at Fort Lauderdale,
Florida, next January, they
will very likely legislate for
free substitution. This will
open the way to two platoons
and the caliber and tempo of
play that the college game de
serves."
Nebraska Coach Bob De
vaney said, "Colonel Blaik
has been thinking in the right
direction. So far, the rules
committee hasn't represented
the thinking 0 f college
coaches. I hope they will
soon."
Blaik noted that in the period
between 1949 and 1952 when
colleges played separate units
for offense and defense, this
two-platoon football "proved
to be the most effective, most
exciting and safest football in
the history of the college
game."
Blaik characterized the
present substitution rule as
"merely another in a series of
complex, ineffectual, tedious
compromises."
In his Look article, Blaik
based his prediction about the
return of the free-substitution
rule to college football on
three developments:

Two key defensive plays and

questions about his personal

"If I can't impress the
scribes by the way I play on
the field, I don t deserve any
ink and if I play well enough
to attract attention, there's
not much I can say.'1,
Brown did say little but
others were quick to praise
him for the Colorado perform'
ance.

Though some sav that the
best defense is a good of-
tense, Nebraska has won five
oi its first six games by lim
iting its opponents to an av
erage of only 2.2 yards per
rush. Nebraska has averaged
o.t yaras per rush.
Nebraska has nearlv
doubled the total net gain of
its opponents, gaining 2300
yards to 1164. Nebraska has
114 first downs in six games.
compared to 70 for the opponents.
One Husker sour note is the
number of fumbles. Nebraska
has fumbled 19 times and
lost 10 while the opponents
have lost a total of only five
fumbles.
Injured halfback Willie
Ross, who has gained a net 360
yards for an average of 6.7,
may yet tie able to play some
against Missouri. Ross suited
up last night, and iniured
tackle Monte Kiffin did Mon

Sopohomore speedster Frank
Solich may be able to make
the trip to Missouri. Solich,
used as a punt and kickoff re
turn specialist, hasn't played
since suffering a shoulder in
jury after taking a punt in the
Minnesota (second) game.
On Missouri Devaney said:
"We are looking forward to a
real tough game with one of

Missouri won a rough battle
from an inspired Iowa State
team, again proving the

when an opponent stalls their

said. "But he really came up
with a fine, job against Color
ado." Brad Wilson of the Des
Register noted Brown's work
against the Buffs by writing,"
"With three professional foot
ball scouts eyeing his every
move, Nebraska's All Ameri
ca candidate Bob Brown had
a great day."
Perhaps the most satisfying
tribute, though, came from
Colorado tackle Al Hollings
worth, former Omaha North
player, who told reporters he
hclt Brown "played a "better
game against us than Damon

American linebacker.
Judging from the Colorado
game, Bob Brown's theory of
much play and little talk is
quite successful in practice.
