Basketball Now?
With the Husker football team in the midst of the Big
Eight title fight, a spiel on basketball seems a, little out
of place, but kwp in mind that the first game is four
weeks away.
Although the wins may come in bucketfuls, the Huskers
are going to be interesting and fun to watch.
In the past few years Nebraska has used a conserva
tive game, going with a give-and-go style when Jerry Bush
took the reins. Such a style was the most effective, with
the material the Coliseum Bear had.
But now, with Joe Cipriano in his first year as coach,
hopes of running for points seems to be taking shape. And,
though this is a big transition from the perennial style,
a few of the cagers seems to be making the adaption well.
Namely, Bob Cebrun, Earl Wright, Jim Yates and
Neil Nannen.
Cebrun, a transfer, appears to be the most polished.
He has the moves, a nice touch from outside and, from
early and short vlewings, gives the impression of a floor
leader.
Last year a court general was sorely missed. Nannen
showed signs of it, but not since Rex Swett graduated two
years ago has a definite leader been apparent.
Ciprano has little trouble in seeing the weaknesses.
"Defense and rebounding," he says. "We are going to
start working on that."
Rebounding could be an all but insolvable problem.
Last year's leaders in this category, Ivan Grupe and Bill
Vincent (whose tragic death also put a crimp in the scor
ing plans), are gone.
Yates, out last year, looks like the top man off the
boards and Cipriano is also pleased with his ability to go
with the running, fast-break game.
Bock to Football
The Sunflower State may be sick of Fred Duda come
Saturday. The sophomore quarterback looks as though he
will get the nod to start for Scarlet and Cream with Dennis
Claridge on the shelf with a bad thigh.
Duda proved himself in the 28-6 win over Kansas State
and let's hope that he establishes himself further against
the Jayhawks.
One thing that makes Duda impressive is his ability to
get away from rushing linemen when he can't find an open
receiver.
.. A quick look at the statistics shows that -Fred has lost
only two yards rushing (80 gained): a commendable feat
for being but a sophomore. He has hit 9 of 22 passes for
117 yards.
Prediction: I started out the week optimistic, but now
that the chips are down I'm not so sure.
With a squinting eye: NEBRASKA 21, Kansas 10. (Sav
ers great, middle of line weak, we'll soon see.)
Big Eight leader Nebraska
will meet revenge-minded
Kansas University Saturday
in a must game for the Husk
ers. Last year both teams en
tered the game with identical
conference records . . . Ne
braska, fresh from a national
ly televised defeat by Missou
ri, upset the Jayhawks 40-16.
While fans awaited the run
ning explosion of Kansas Gale
Sayers, Nebraska's Willie
Ross scored touchdowns on
runs of 32, 26, and 4 yards.
Although Ross has yet to
score a touchdown for the
Huskers this fall, it can be
assured that the Kansas de
fense will be determined not
to allow Ross the free access
to the goal line that he had
last year.
Soph Fred Duda is expected
to assume starting quarter
b a c k duties as Denny Cla
ridge is still a doubtful start
er for the game. Ironically
enough in last year's game,
Claridge was limited to hand
ing off the ball. He had suf
fered a sprained ankle in the
previous week's game w t i h
Mssouri.
The Cornhuskers enter the
game leading the nation in
rushing offense. Help for the
Cornhusker rushing game
will be expected from senior
fullback Rudy Johnson who
ranks 12th in the Nation
the rushing charts.
in
A sell-out crowd of 38,000
will watch the Parents Day
spectacle. Many fans will get
their first look at Gale Say
ers since he played in the 1961
Nebraska Shrine Bowl. The
highly touted Sayers played
prep football at Omaha Cen
tral where he set an inter-city
scoring record two years in a
row.
Kansas will show the Husk
ers with a versaile offense.
With Sayers at halfback and
Ken Coleman and Armand
Baughman at fullback, quar
terback Steve Renko has a
sound rushing game to
strengthen his passing.
Husker mentor Bob De
vaney called Renko "another
Isaacson, Mira or Gary Lane
to Nebraska."
Jayhawk coach, Jack
Mitchell said it is difficult to
prepare for the Nebraska
game because "They do so
many things so well and have
such good personnel."
Since 1917 the Huskers
have won 34, lost 10 and have
tied in the Kansas series.
Devaney is expected to add
another win to his all-time
coaching record Saturday.
National prognosticators pick
the Nebraska over Kansas
University in a vital game for
the Husker title hopes.

JAYHAWKS RUN TOO Fullback Ken Coleman's power
gives Kansas a contrast to the flashy speed of Gayle
Sayers. .
Sayers Returns Wanting
Victory On Husker Turf
How does a man feel when
he returns to his home state
to play "their" state universi
ty? Gale Sayers, second-leading
rusher in the Big Eight, said,
"I just want to try to play my
regular game. If you try too
hard, you start hobbling the
ball. I want to beat Nebras
ka, sure. Not because I'm
from Nebraska, but because
it's a conference game. And
you always try to win as
many as you can."
Junior halfback Sayers is a
big factor in the Kansas re
surgence after the Jayhawks
lost their first two conference
games. They have won their
last two games by the com
bined score of 75 to 7. Lead
ing the nation in rushing until
the Kansas State game, Say
ers gained "only" 79 yards
for a total of 634.
He averages 6.6 yards per
carry, just under Rudy John
son's 6.7.
Sayers shocked Jayhawk
fans by deliberately striving
for more weight after he
opened his varsity career last
year. A series of two shots
per week administered by the
team physician ("I don't
know what they were, but
they sure have helped.")
Brought his weight up from
175 to over 200. Sayers now
just weighs 198.
"Added weight helped?"
Sayers echoes the question. "I
know it has. I got banged up
a lot last year. I don't feel it
nearly so much this season. I
don't feel that I've lost any
speed either."

high-top shoes instead of the
normal low-cut ones of a half
back. Sayers explained that
they give his ankle a little pro
tection. (He wore low shoes
last year but hurt his ankle in
the first practice last spring
and again in this season's
opener against TCU). "Our
equipment man weighed
both types and found only two
ounces difference. I don't fig
ure two ounces is going to
slow me down," says Sayers.
Sayers now is just 156 yards
