I 'i it Washington State Falls To Late Free Throws By Ed Icenogle Sports Assistant Nebraska's Ron Simmons entered the final minutes of a game that was tied nine times and put through a pair of free throws to give the Huskers an 80-78 decision over Washington State University Tuesday night. Simmons, a junior guard, scored the points with only 38. seconds remaining after he was fouled by Washing ton State's Lenny Allen. A crowd estimated dt over 5,400 watched at the Coliseum as Stuart Lantz rolled up 26 points, includ ing 12 free throws on as many attempts to be the Huskers' high scorer.

Full-Court Press Aids Husker Win Th Nebraska basketball team used a devastating full-court press to good ad vantage Monday night as they whipped Washington State 100-75 in the first game of a two-night stand for the Cougars. So effective was Nebras ka's pressurized attack that Washington State failed to get a two-pointer until five minutes and 26 seconds had elapsed in the first half. The Huskers by that time had ammassed a 16-5 lead. The Cougars edged to within 11 points, 47-36, at halftime after being down by 14 at one point during the first 20 minutes. Washington State's 6-9'2 center, Jim McKcan, ac counted for 28 of his team's 36 points at halftime and had officials scurrying to locate the Coliseum one game scoring record, be fore he cooled off and ended the game with 35 points, high 'tor both teams. Nebraska broke the game wide open shortly after the second half tip off. Out front by nine, 49-40, the Huskers ran the count to 60-40 in less than two min utes by getting maximum efficiency from the full court press.

The Cornhuskers shot to an early 9-3 lead with the aid of the defensive press that gained them Monday's 100-75 win over the same squad the same squad, physically, anyway. Nebraska's coach Joe Cipriano explained the "ov ernight" improvement in WSU's performance: "Washington State knew they could play better. To night they played us pret ty well . . . they were able to stay with our press." They stayed with the press well enough to catch the Huskers and stay even with them midway through by junior forward Tom Baack who finished high for Nebraska with 22 points, four points below his average going into the game. Senior forward Nate Branch got the other three, including a stuffed lay in. He finished second high in Husker scoring with 18 points, his best output of the year. Two sophomores, Roger Leitner and Bob Wagner, were next for Nebraska scoring with 12 points each. It was a long jumper by Leitner with :54 left in the game which allowed the Huskers to hit the 100 point level, one point short of the Nebraska all time scoring rcord of 101 points set last year at Wisconsin.

Stoll, who had 10 points for the evening, put togeth er four field goals in a row to put WSU ahead. High point man for Wash ington, 6-8 forward Ted Wierman, put out 23 points against the Huskers. Senior Willie Campbell, who had 16 tallies for the game, Lantz and Baack paced a first half NU come back which left Nebraska with a 43-39 halftime lead. The final two-pointer of the Cornhusker surge was a last second tip in by Baack. Washington State took its turn at coming back and narrowed the NU lead to 50-48 in the second half be fore Stoll fouled out. From there WSU matched t h e Huskers and finally knotted the score at 68 all with six and a half minutes in the game. Washington State jumped briefly into the lead with a corner shot by 6-6 Mike Werner. Branch tied it up at 70-70 as the match en tered the final five min utes. From there on out NU and WSU alternated mak ing two point gains. The tenacious Husker press wnt back into action in the last two minutes, keeping Washington from scoring while Lantz made the ty ing points on a one-and-one free throw and Simmons came in to win the game. The Nebraska mentor was as worried as many of the fans in the c 1 o s i n minutes of play. "We knew they were go ing to be pretty tough," Cipriano said. "It was just a matter of who got the break." The Cornhuskers got the "break", managed their second win over Washing ton State in two nights and brought their season record up to four wins and one loss. Cipriano was pleased with the free throw accur acy of the Huskers, for a good reason. It proved to be the difference in the game. NU hit on 30-35 for a .857 per cent.

The total points for the losers amount to 37, while 'Bama has racked up 267 in the 10 outings. If the two New Orleans bound teams are compared on these total points, it looks rough for the Corn huskers they've scored "only" 215 points to 88 for their opponents. The NU victories are over all but Oklahoma in the Big Eight (including a 35-0 slapping of Missouri) plus Texas Christian, Utah State and Wisconsin. The Husker's loss to Okla homa spoiled their perfect season giving the Tide one more statistical advantage. But it is usually agreed that the caliber of teams on college schedules varies greatly. It's much easier, if not more accurate, to analyze Alabama in terms of its individual leaders. The Tide's Kenny Stab ler will be the one to watch on the 'Bama side when the Crimson meets the Red. The 6-2 junior quarterback leads his team in rushing and passing departments. On the ground Stabler has netted 397 yards for an average of 4.3 yards per carry. His passing hasn't disappointed Alabama coach Bear Bryant, either. The Foley, Alabama native has completed 74 of 114 passes for 64.9 per cent, 956 yards and nine touch downs. Catching a good share of those passes was split end Ray Perkins, a 6-1 senior. Perkins leads the receiving ranks with 33 catches for 490 yards and seven touchdowns. Right behind Perkins, on the field and in receiving stats, is fullback Dennis Homan, a 6-0 junior. IIo man has caught 23 passes for 377 passes and five TDs. Homan is also a contri butor to the Alabama ground cause with nine carries for 75 yards (aver age 8.3). Les Kelley, a 6-3 senior tailback, is another big man with th ball. He is second in rushing with a total of 309 yards and a 3.3-yard average. He has also thrown a 29-yard pass for 29 yards and a score. Bui the high scorer for the Crimson is not Kelley SuSiHTS with 24, Homan with 30 nor Steve from Columbus, Georgia making him one of the few on the squad not among the 47 Alabama natives has made 10 of 17 field goal attempts and con verted 25 of 28 times for 55 points. jj for dainty, distinctive design.

During Devaney's 10-year head coaching ca reer, his teams have won 82, lost 17 and tied five for a percentage of .828, not counting ties, or .812, count ing ties. Devaney's teams at Ne braska have posted consec utive records of 9-2, MM, 9 2, 10-1 and 9-1 heading into ;he Sugar Bowl clash with Alabama. The Sugar Bowl will mark Nebraska's fifth straight bowl appearance since Devaney's arrival in Lincoln. Devaney came to Nebras ka as a successor to Bill Jennings early in 1962 and promptly proceeded to set a football-wacky state even during the lean years on its ear. Here's the way the Bob Devaney legend burst on the Cornhusker scene: 1962 Devaney took a 3-6- 1 club from 1961 and turned it into the surprise of the Big o. The Huskers won six straight, wound up 8-2, accepted a bid to the Goffl am Bowl and shocked Mi ami, 36-34, on the frozen turf of Yankee Stadium. Devaney was named Big 8 Coach of the Year. 1963 On rolled the Hus kers, posting a 9-1 record, landing an Orange Bowl berth and socking Auburn, 13-7. Devaney repeated as Coach of the Year. 1964 With 11 of 13 seni ors from 1963 moving on to pro ball, the Huskers were supposed to sink. Instead, they won nine straight games before losing their final game to Oklahoma NU Might Shelve Team Workouts Nebraska's Sugar Bowl boumd Cornhuskers may start team practice out doors Wednesday, but the possibility remains that the Husker gridders will save the unit workouts for the Brownsville, Tex., training caimp where coach Bob Devaney's team plans to travel next week. For the past few weeks the Nebraska squad has been going through individ ual practice sessions which have included considerable running. With a good number of the coaching staff away on recruiting trips, trainers Paul Schneider and Frank Sullivan, have been In charge of the Huskers' conditioning program.

Nebraska won 10 straight and another Or ange Bowl bid, In addition to a third straight title and third straight Top 10 finish. The Huskers dropped a 39 28 decision to Alabama in the Orange Bowl, but pro vided a spectacular offen sive show even in defeat and Alabama was awarded the national title on the strength of defeating Ne braska. Under Devaney's guid ance, the Cornhuskers have produced eight All Ameri ca players Bob Brown in 1963, Larry Kramer in 1964, Walt Barnes, Tony Jater and Freeman White in 1965 and Wayne Meylan, Larry Wachholtz and La Verne Allers in 1966 as well as 33 All-Big 8 per formers in the past five seasons. In addition to his coach ing genius and Devaney is quick to award sincere cre dit to his veteran staff of assistants the Nebraska coach is a highly-sought aft er dinner speaker, clinic lecturer and off-the-c u f f humorist. A stickler for dedication ' to duty and organization, Devaney also has the knack of making football practice fun and he frequently comes up with a game day loosener for his squad like bringing in a night club magician to entertain h i s players just before a b i g game. Prior to becoming head coach at Wyoming, Devan ey was an assistant to Big gie Munn and Duffy Daugh- frty at Mich4an state fo1- lowing a great career as a Michigan prep coach. Happiness?
