Only 23 yards separates Mc Call's most productive after noon from his least productive of the season as he goes about his task in a methodical pat tern that thus far has pro duced 321 yards. 265 passing! and 56 rushing. Overlooked by most because of his unflashy way of produc ing, he is not marked off the list bv his colleagues in the Big Eight quarterbacking fra ternity, who take special pains to point out that perhaps Mc Call might be the most under-, rated player in the Con ference. McCall's lead, however, is far from being solid, as eight are hovering within 46 yards in what has turned out to be the closest of the individual races. Closest challengers, but 11 yards back, are Kansas State's Vic Castillo, the lead er the first two weeks and the best again this week in pass ing, and Missouri's Gary Lane, the champion the past two years, and this week's scoring co-leader.

Just another eight yards behind Solich is Missou ri's Charlie Brown with 286. Kansas' Bill Fenton has 285. Tim Van Galder, passing spe cialist at Iowa State, is sev enth with 283, while Nebras ka's Bob Churchich is eighth and 46 in the rear with 275. Now that Brown has moved to within eight yards of Solich, he becomes the first halfback to really challenge for the rushing lead since Kansas' Gale Sayers was knocked off the top with a month to go last year. Since then, fullbacks . have ruled. Helping Brown put j the pinch on in behalf of the halfbacks is Colorado's Wil liam Harris, third and 30 back with 264. While all the individual races were either changing leaders or tightening up. the kicking specialists around the Big Eight stepped in to put on a show of their own. with Oklahoma State's Charles Durkee and Colorado's Frank Rogers holding the upper hand. Both connected three times Saturday both had 48-yarders for their land the Confer ence's) top efforts to tie the single-game record. Durkee's belts brought his career total to 11. a new Conference rec ord, breaking the old mark of 10 set by Kansas State's Ben Grosse in 1958. Staying right with these two for seasonal honors was Mis souri's Bill Bates, who got his third of the year. Rogers leads the pack with four and 16 kicking points. Nebraska's Larry Wachholtz had 13 ex tra points. Bates is next with 12, while Durkee and Iowa State's Steve Balkovec have 11 each. Other individual leaders are Nebraska's Freeman White, receiving. 13 for 197 (he is also tied with Lane and Solich in scoring with 18); Kansas State's Bob Ballard, punting, 22 for 42.9; Wachholtz,. punt returns, 11 for 196; Oklahoma State's Larry Elliott, kickoff returns, eight for 187. rishim; TMnvrr and Sfbnol Carries Net Yds Avg Frank Solii-h il ;; SM 7.9 Charlie Brown 1MV1 .. 4 -im A.i William Harris iCU . 41 264 .4 Walt Garrison rOSU) . . 5 221 3.8 I.cs Webster ilSL') ... 41 194 4.5 Carl Rwsc (MU 45 190 4.2 Harry Wilson l .... .10 IB.) 6.2 Tony Baker 1SI') .... te 171 5.3 Garv l.ane MV ?4 15R S.S Ron Kirkland (NU) ...la 151 6.0 Pete Talman (NO .17 12? 7.2 Danny Uwson (OSU) .

Carrying the correlation fur ther, the best offenses in the league also belong to the "ball-hogginest" of the past weekend. While rolling up a seasonal high of 497 total yards, Ne braska held onto the ball for 94 scrimmage plays, pushing its total-offense mark to a whopping 435.7 average, some 110 yards more than Missouri. While doing this, the Corn huskers were allowing Iowa State only 56 chances and lowering their total-defense mark to 189.3. less than a yard behind Missouri's lead ing average of 188.7. Making the biggest move in both categories was Colorado which apparently locked the game balls in a peck of Boul- der snow, the white stuff forc jed the Buffs inside for a day I last week, freezing the bail j for 101 plays. Kansas State i got 41 yards fewer. Colorado pushed its way to third in to ! tal offense with a 302 aver 1 age and third in total defense with a 202.7 standard, j Missouri, meanwhile, kept its leadership in total defense jand moved into second in to i tal offense, mainly on the strength of its 87 time-consum- I ing plays against Minnesota, while holding the Gophers to just 57. The Cornhuskers' second team lead is in rushing of- ' fense. a 310.7 mark, which is about 10 yards off last week's nation-leading aver- ; age. Kansas also holds a pair 1 of top spots again this week passing offense and passing defense. Even though held to its lowest aerial output of the season, the Jayhawkers still held on with a 147.0 average. Their 63.7 allowance through i the air lanes is also a best.
