The Daily Nebraskan
Poge 6
Rood
Awakening
By MICK ROOD
Coverage during the football season seems to provide
a contrast of material for sports writers. At once, the
much-read man must become an able statistician or a
brilliant theorist.
Grist for the sports experts' mill lately has been
pure theory. The team is starting to win with that mag
nificent boring fashion that makes fans persnickity and,
like it was said, makes the writers turn to theory.
Latest to suffer at the poke of the propagandists'
dull pens is the team. While disgrunted fans indulge in
the trivia of "Why don't they win by more," the sports
writers accomplish little more trying to measure Husker
"greatness."
The latest game namely exactly a definition of
Husker greatness was really Jack Mitchell's fault. All
the scribes heard that Jack thought Nebraska just wasn't
great whatever that Is.
Anything they can do, I can do too . . . but, let's
go to the source.
Many pages were missing from the Rag's tattered
dictionary, but the page with the word "great" re
mained. On page 239, there are five definitions, all of
which apply.
1. of much more than ordinary size, extent, etc.
What could be more applicable to the Devaney team?
Nothing more need be said.
t. much above the average; esp., a) Intense: as,
great pain, b) eminent: as, a great writer.
Well, theyve got to be above average, football-wise.
And in the examples, sideline shots this year will tell
you that nobody has registered more pain at certain
times than Bob Devaney. As for eminent writers, we
know about them. Yeah, sure.
3. most important; main.
Wrongly or rightly, what, is more important in this
state than Nebraska's team. In the main too.
4. designating a relationship one generation removed:
as, great-grandparent.
And who but Nebraskans are more proud to say every
year that this team is the granddaddy of them all,
5. excellent; fine used colloquially.
The most favorite words of Husker supporters are
excellent and fine everybody knows that.
Well, there you have it. The ultimate in thorough
Husker-greatness-calculation. Straight from Webster's New
World Dictionary, with able interpretation of course.
Forgetting all that, as I know we will, upcomes the
Cowpokes. Several years in this series it was thought
here that Nebraska might run the Staters out of the
Stadium. It has yet to happen.
The margin should be wider Saturday. The Huskers
seem to be building to a bowl pitch in contrast to some
past years. All the silly talk about how much better they
could be should keep them fired up. Tommy Prothro need
say no more.
Through wind, sleet, snow and or rain the team will
carry the mail and or the football to victory by NE
BRASKA 22, OKLAHOMA STATE 0.

Past Games Show
O-State Tough Foe
By Bob Flasnick
Sports Editor
Oklahoma State, a team
that has been a thorn in Ne
braska's side ever since
they joined the Big E i g h t
Conference in 1960, will
bring a 2-1-1 conference rec
ord to Lincoln Saturday
which includes a one-point
win over Colorado. Anoth
er sellout crowd of ap
proximately 65,000 is anti
cipated. Nebraska has never lost
to the Cowboys from Still
water while Bob Devaney
has been the Husker coach
but Nebraska has never
beaten Oklahoma State by
more than two touchdowns.
That was in 1962 when the
Huskers won 14-0 in Devan
ey's first year at Nebraska.
In the two following years
Nebraska won by scores of
20-16 and 27-14.
Last year's game at Still
water produced the slim
mest win margin for Ne
braska, 21-17. Nebraska
kept an undefeated season
in tact by driving 76 yards
in the final five minutes for
the winning touchdown.
Cowboy fullback Wal Gar
rison was a one-man gang
in the 1965 encounter. Gar
rison is gone this year and
in his place as the leading
Cowboy rusher is fullback
Jack Reynolds. He has
lugged the ball 105 times
this year for a 3.8 yard av
erage. Nebraska's Harry Wilson
ranks two notches above
Reynolds in Big Eight rush
ing with a 4.6 yard average
in 98 carries.
Both Sugar and Orange
Bowl representatives will
scout Saturday's game. Dr.
Fred Wolfe will be making
his third trip to the Corn
husker campus for the Sug
ar Bowl. It will be the sec
ond trip to Lbicoln for t h e
Orange Bowl's Jim Llewel
lyn and Bob Hector.
It was announced
Wednesday that there is a
good chance that defensive
tackle Carel Stith, halfback
Ron Kirkland, and right
end Dennis Richnafsky will
be ready for Oklahoma
State. All three were on the
Husker injury list early in
the week.
Stith was sidelined with
an ankle sprain last Satur
day at Kansas while Rich
nafsky and Kirkland were
injured in the Wisconsin
and Iowa State games re
spectively. Husker quarterback Bob
Churchich will be shooting
for another Nebraska rec
ord Saturday. He needs only
two yards passing to break
the season record of 975
yards set by D e n n i s Cla
ridge in 1962.
Last week at Kansas
Churchich became the all
time career total offensive
record holder with 2,675
yards and the Husker rec
ord holder for most passes
attempted in one season
(131).
The Columbus, Neb.,
Chamber of Commerce has
named Saturday's game
"Marv Mueller Day," in
honor of their hometown de
fensive standout. A large
delegation of Columbus fans
will travel to the game via
special buses.
A total of 24 Nebraska
seniors will make their final
appearance in Memorial
Stadium Saturday.
They are LaVerne Allers,
Gary Brichacek, Ken
Brunk, Kaye Carstens, Bob
Churchich, Langston Cole
man, Rick Coleman, Dick
Czap, Bob Hill, Ron Kirk
land, Lou Narish, Jim Os
berg, Tom Pappas, Kelly
Peterson, and Bob Pickens.
Ron Poggemeyer, Steve
Schaefer, Lynn Senkbeil,
Carel Stith, Pete Tatman,
Dennis Thorell, Jim Un
rath, Larry Wachholtz and
Harry Wilson.

Sports Assistant
Nebraska freshman bas
ketball coach Glenn Potter
is pleased with the new crop
of yearling cagers that he
is cultivating.
"I'm very pleased," Pot
ter said of the squad's pre
season progress. "As far as
the squad is concerned, we
have depth something
usually lacking in our fresh
men." "We have more speed
and quickness," he added
and then pointed out that
the 1966-67 frosh are a big
ger squad than the NU
standouts who have vaulted
the Cornhuskers into nation
al basketball prominence.
"We're superior to what
we had last year." said the
coach. "I don't think there's
any question about that."
The freshmen initiate
their season Thursday, Dec.
1, against Drake at Des
Moines. The yearlings have
an eight-g a m e schedule,
three of the tilts at home.
On Dec. 5, NU's frosh will
host the Creston Junior Col
lege varsity at the Coliseum
at 7:30 p.m. in Lincoln. It
is the only non-preliminary
contest of the campaign.
"This will give the fresh
men a night of their own
instead of just a prelimin
ary game," said Potter. The
other matches will precede
Cornhusker varsity games
or be away games.
Potter, who has had the
frosh in practice since Oct.
17, indicated the probable
contenders for starting po
sitions this season:
Tom Line of Los Angeles,
Frosh May Sign
For BB Kernals
Freshmen interested in
becoming members of Ker
nals for basketball season
may sign up at the Nebras
ka Union Thursday begin
ning at 11:30 a.m.
Only those freshmen who
were not members of Ker
nels for football are eligible.
There will be no quota for
each living unit, as there is
during football season.
To become a member,
each Kernal must purchase
a uniform and attend all
home games.
Calif., Sam Martin of Paw
nee City, Neb., and Tom
Scantlebury of Oakland,
Calif., Mere listed as lead
ing the guards. Line is 6-3,
Martin 6-0 and Scantlebury
6-2.
At the front of the for
ward ranks are Ken Cauble,
Midland, Texas, Larry Col
lins, Englewood, Calif., and
Bob Gratopp, Grafton, Neb.
Cauble and Collins stand 6-5
and Gratopp is 6-4.
Ken Peden, 6-7, Alliquip
pa, Penn., and 6-6 Ed Mc
Pherren of Ten Sleep, Wyo.,
are the choices at center.
Wimderlich Paces NU Rifle Team
Manfred Wunderlich paced
the Nebraska rifle team as
they coasted to a 2,624
2,483 win over the Univer
sity of Kansas last Satur
day at Lawrence. Wunder
lich's point total in the
standing, kneebng and
prone positions was 543.
