The sportswriter figured it was about that time again.
He decided to finish his worst duty of an otherwise exciting
time of the year. He went to work.
His eyes drooped over his "ncvcr-fail" procedure chart.
The chart was worn out . . . and so was the whole idea,
he thought. Here were so many easy steps to oblivion:
1) gather extended weather forecasts from every part
of the country. 2) obtain physical reports on all partici

Sure thing, he thought.
He and thousands of other "experts" have to predict
the season for their expectant readers. It starts all over

Our sportswriter figured people expect it. The trouble
starts when some people get dea'hlv serious about the
thing. Humble guesses are scoffed and threatened at.

Husker scout John Melton's
report on Saturday's oppon
ent Air Force noted thart Wy
oming, a very good team, had
a lot of trouble with the Fal
cons the first half before
downing them 31-14, last Satur
day. Melton mentioned that the
Falcons are hard to figure ,
because head coach lien Mar-'
tin changes so many things
from week to week, and they
run from so many different
sets.
His report continued that
one thing is certain, they'll
throw a lot. Falcon quarter
back Paul Stein, reminded the
Husker scout of Terry Isaac
son and Melton noted that
Stein is a fine scrambler. j
Melton concluded his report
by saying "Air Force can't:
help but be sky high in front
of the home folks, and we
know we're in for trouble." i
l ciroiis on ice.
! "I didn't know what record
! everyone was talking about,"
! White said after the game.
"I really didn't know what
the old record was, or how
many catches I had made
but it's sure nice to make the
record book, particularly
since we won."
White missed making the
NU record book by only one
yard in 1984. He caught 17
passes for 338 yards. The NU
mark for pass yards in a sin
gle season is 339, set by Frank
Simon in 1951.
Husker quarterback Bob
Churchich said he kept throw,
ing to White for two reasons.
"TCU was covering him
one on one, and I figured he
could beat a single defender,"
Churchich said. "And all
you've got to do with Free
man is put the ball up in the
air high and he'll go and get
it."
White did that, indeed, on
the second TD snare of the
first quarter. He cut over the
middle and at the goal line
leaped high over the heads
of defenders to grab the wet
ball before landing full length
in the end zone.
White's first TD catch was
a 28-yard toss from Church
ich, and his record breaking
catch No. 6, that is was a
23-yard affair, which saw
White take the pas s, then
ramble, feint and rip through
defenders along the sidelines.
"Freeman had a great
opening day," Coach Bob De-
vaney said. "If he continues
to improve, he's capable of
having quite a year."
White's afternoon effort was
just one short of the Big Eight
mark of nine receptions held
by several players.
