The Daily Nebraskan Thursday, October 28, 1965 Page 4 Rood m i i Awakening I The question has been posed ... and for a helluva long time. Does the Tiger pit threaten or beckon? I think it fccckGns Confidence is the highest for a Missouri game in dec ades. Some "experts" are Riving 14 points with a Missouri bet No one is forgetting the games' tradition as a hard won affair. Fourteen points worth of confidence might be unwarranted, but this is the first time in years the Busk ers have an obvious edge. Now why? Missouri will have to bend all the prongs of the most diversified game Nebraska has had since Bob Devaney has been here. Luckily, several early-season forecasts here explaining probable Big Red success have been born out Those good guesses and other factors for Missouri defeat: Diversified Offense It was said here that Nebraska would have a more diversified offense. And it does. Coach Devaney and as sistants have been able to freely switch their versatile backs to meet injuries, etc. Fred and Bob keep each other at their best Halfbacks, maybe later ends and fullbacks, can throw passes. Another weapon, Larry Wacholtz, has set up five or six touchdowns this year. It was said here that Nebraska's defense (passing too) would be the "deepest and strongest in the Devaney period." The Blackshirts' rushing defense has been good. After all, allowing over 100 yards a game now and then is no disgrace. The pass defense, was expected, has been magnificent with the Air Force exception. Even with that Husker backs have given up only a 38 completion record, have intercepted 10 to opponents' five, and have given up just one aerial score to Nebraska's seven. Three Touchdowns On the Tiger side of the coin, Nebraska will prob ably give up a touchdown or two in Columbia. Gary Lane is due against Nebraska, and Johny Roland, Charlie Brown and company are good backs. However, Missouri's de fense will have to look too many places at once. Missouri will give up at least three touchdowns to the diversified Husker attack. Money on that I think Coach Dan Derine realizes Nebraska has a more significant edge this year. He may try some sur prises. If he does, they had better work. Nebraska, with all its sustained drives this year, has H ived on mistakes. Colorado's Crowder wasn't going to make those mistakes and his team lost on those very mistakes. Hats off to UPI this week for rating Missouri eighth. They deserve it They are just playing number one, poor schedule or no. The Cotton Bowl will prove it With usual skepticism, no injuries, good weather, alert officials and no let down I see it NEBRASKA 24, MIS SOURI 13. Come On FANS By Jim Pearse Where have we been this week FANS? Fred Fraterni ty, Sue Sorority, Dorothy and Dickie Dormy, Sandy and Sammy City? Saturday we go stalking the Missouri Tigers. It will be our biggest challenge of the regu lar season. It will be our only challenge of the regular sea son. So why haven't we FANS responded to it with a show of SPIRIT? Spirit, a must in in tercollegiate athletics; inde despensible to intercollegiate football. Spirit, fellow FANS, is the lifeblood of a college team. It is the heart that makes the campus throb with expecta tion each week; it is the soul that boosts and drives the team to a championship. Spirit on the college cam pus is not the result of the team. Rather the true col- kgan surrounds his team with a bouquet of animated energy and enthusiasm. Why do we go out to the game every Saturday? To sit and admire our spot of red in amongst the 50,000? To be awestricken as the Scarlet and Cream crush the opposi tion? We are more zealous on Tuesday morning when the ratings appear than on Sat urday morning when we don our red hats. The Huskers are ranked third in the nation by the ma jor polls. A truer indication of strength, the Dunkel power index, has us fourth. And rightly so in all cases. We play a patsy schedule. No one denies this. And at the same time no one need make excuses for it as the sports editors of two of Ne braska's largest newspapers did this week. gimnumiiimiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiiuiiiiuiiunniiiiig Go Big Red fiiiiiiiuiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiuuiiiiiiiiul 5TH ANNUAL PIZZA HUT SCOREBOARD: HUSKERS Over Oklahoma 28-7 Colo.

Husker-Tiger Tilt Tops . . . To Sfop Sooners By Jim Swartz Tiger Game on TV The Nebraska-Missouri clash will be seen Saturday via closed television at the Coliseum. Tickets are available at Gerry's Sport Shop and Law lors for $2 for adults and $1 for high school students and younger. Game time is 1:30 p.m. With all eyes on the Nej braska-Missouri tilt at Colum-I bia Saturday the rest of the Big Eight has a full slate scheduled, with the Oklahoma Colorado match drawing at tention. The Sooners have come back with a pair of Confer ence wins after dropping their first three games and are a half-game behind the Huskers and Tigers in the race for the Big Eight title. Fred Casotti, Colorado sports information director and whose poetry appeared last week, entitled his effort this week "ode after emerg ing from a meatgrinder." From one Big Red to anoth er, has got me nervously chewing my cud, (My Buffs too are a bit reddish this week, all covered with our own blood.) Colorado lost for the first time last week and is sport ing a season record of 3-1-2. It's a key game for both of the sophomore laden squads but Colorado should bounce back and stop the Sooner threat, Colorado 14, Oklahoma 7. Kansas entertains Kansas State at Lawrence Saturday and the Jayhawks have the only victory of the college cousins. With Kansas fresh from a 9-0 win over Oklahoma State last week the Wildcats could take the edge off the J a y hawks, who will have the ad vantage of the homecoming crowd in the traditional game. It should be Kansas State 21, behind Vic Castillo's of fensive attack, and Kansas 7. A virus may drive already troubled Oklahoma State to a lower ebb for a Homecoming game at Ames with Iowa State. Cowboy coach Phil Cutchin won't name those affected by the illness and says only that "several who have started for us are ill." The Cowboys season rec ord is 1-5 while the Cyclones have registered a 3-1-2 mark. Iowa State is out to keep an upper division finish alive and if the Cowboys field a team Iowa State 17, Oklahoma State 14. plPnff I nnni mice this twt!
