Outscore
By CHARLES DA VIES
Assistant Sports Editor
The undefeated Nebras
ka freshmen football team
ended the season by out
scoring stubborn McCook
Junior College 36-28 Satur
day night at McCook.
The Cornhusker yearlings
rolled up 362 total yards
in posting their fourth
straight victory.
"Bill Brown. Paul Rogers,
Jim Smith, Dan Schneiss,
and Ben Williams all did
an exceptional job of run
ning," Frosh Coach Cletus
Fischer said.
GOOD-SIZED RUNS
"Each had one good
sized run during the game,"
he added.
"Brown ran a draw play
for 40 or 50 yards and Wil
liams took a couple of tack
lers with him on a four
yard touchdown run,"
Fischer said.
Fischer said Nebraska's
passing improved during
the game. "Rick Wenner,
Paul Rogers, and Dan
Schneiss threw the ball
: well."
TOUCHDOWN STRIKES
Nebraska completed 14
of 24 passes for 195 yards.
Halfback Dan Schneiss
tossed a 10-yard touchdown
: pass to Jim Smith while
quarterback Rick Wenner
hit split end Guy Ingles
with a 17-yard touchdown
strike.
Coach Fischer said Mc
Cook was the toughest of
the four teams, the fresh
men had faced this season.

TWO PLAYS HURT
Fischer said they threw
more than anyone the fresh
men had faced yet. "We
didn't look for them to
throw so much."
Fischer said Nebraska
was particularly hurt by
two plays.
"The first one was when
we tried to intercept a pass
and misjudged it." This re
sulted in a 70-yard touch
down pass from McCook
quarterback Donn Kaup.
"The second bad play was
on a letdown in the line,"
he said. McCook's Ken John
son scored on a 76-yard
run on that play.
POISE
Fischer said the team
showed considerable poise
and character in Saturday's
battle.
"This game was their
(McCook's) homecom
ing and final game which
enabled them to be fired
up" the freshman coach
said.
"The team was proud to
beat them and should be,"
he said. "They are one of
the top junior college teams
in the nation."
"The kids are real happy
about going undefeated,"
he said.

In Big-8 Cross-Country
Nebraska finished its win

with its second consecutive
last place finish at the Big
Eight cross-country meet
Saturday morning at Boul

Club.
The Huskers, who
dropped five regular-season

by the Missouri Tigers.

Although he called the

1966 rushing pace Gregory
has had trouble holding on
to the football.
"I've been in the dog
house ."fter all those fum
bles," Gregory said. "I was
determined to play better."
The Uniontown, Pa., na
tive said he blocked and
ran better Saturday.
The hard-driving halfback
accounted for almost half
Nebraska's 250 yards on
the ground, and outgained
the entire OSU team which
accumulated 103 total yards.
RIGHT SIDE
Gregory said his most ef
fective play was the sweep
on the right side.
"I feel a lot better af
ter this game," he said.
"My performance has giv
en me some future confi
dence." Co-captain Marv Mueller
felt Gregory had his best
game of the season.
BETTER THREAT
"He gave us a better
threat offensively which is
always encouraging to the
defense," the senior safe
tyman said.

Huskers Run Shutout
String To 3 Straight
Nebraska followed to a
letter the advice of a hand
scrawled sign taped to the
Fieldhouse locker room Sat
urday which read "Desire
75 per cent of the game,
HIT-HIT. Go after your
man."
The Huskers went after
their men, the Oklahoma
State Cowboys, in one of
Memorial Stadium's tough
est 1967 affairs and re
corded their third straight
shutout with a 9-0 Big Eight
conference victory.
In blanking its fourth foe
this season, Nebraska's de
fensive platoon allowed the
Stillwater squad only 103
yards and lowered its na
tional - leading total defen
sive mark to 139.1 yards
per game.
TRIPLED
While the defenders were
stopping the Cowboys, the
offensive crew almost tri
pled the OSU total offensive
showing with a 308 yard
output.
Although held scoreless,
Husker halfback Ben Greg
ory ran like the number 22
of old in outgaining the en
tire OSU team with a 120
yard performance.
Nebraska began rolling in
the second quarter with a
67 yard drive culminated on
quarterback Frank Pat
rick's fifth 1967 scoring toss
a four-yard heave to end
Dennis Richnafsky.
BROKEN PATTERNS
"I've scored three touch
downs this year, all of them
on broken patterns," said
Nebraska's all-time leading
receiver who needs one
more reception in the next
two games to shatter Free
man White's season recep
tion mark.
"It was a pre-determined
pattern where I go quickly
to the sidelines," he said.
"But I was covered so I

The four-yard scoring
play with 2:21 remaining
before the Veteran's Day
intermission was the lone
score until late in the fourth
quarter when Nebraska's
Bill Bomberger kicked a
29-yard field-goal with 4:37
remaining.
GREGORY SCAMPERS
The 10-play march was
highlighted by Gregory's 29
yard scamper and Tom
Penney's two pass recep
tions for 30 yards.
Although OSU teased Ne
braska with a 51-yard field
goal attempt, the Cowboys
didn't seriously threaten to
score until early in the sec
ond half.
The Cowboys used Ron
nie Johnson's first two pass
receptions of the afternoon
to flankerback Terry Brown
for 33 yards in marching to
Nebraska's nine-yard line.
GAMBLE
The Cowboys gave the
65,461 homecoming specta
tors an example of daring
football on a fourth-down
gamble.
They lined up in field
goal formation, faked the
kick and then tried a pass
which fell incomplete.
In losing the ball three
times, Nebraska evenly dis
tributed its handovers on a
pass interception, a fumble
in the later minutes of the
game and a blocked punt
which might have been dis
astrous. Dana Stephenson's at
tempted punt was blocked
by right end Doug Cathey,
whose effort resulted in
OSU banging at the scoring
door at the Nebraska 26
yard line.
BLACK SHIRTS RECOVER
After the southerners pro
ceded to chalk up a quick
11 yards, the Black Shirts
rose to the occasion when
ends Frank Avolio and Mike
Wynn t e a m e d up to re
soundingly halt OSU touch
down anticipations.
When violently shoved
turf-bound by Avolio, John
son fumbled at the Husker
23 yard line and Wynn
clutched the ball for Ne
braska's seventh fumble re
covery. "Mike was right behind
the quarterback," Avolio
explained. "It was a defen
sive end call where we both
rushed."
While Wynn and Avolio
combined forces for the
game - saving play, both

Wayne Meylan, Nebraska's
middle guard and Cowboy
boy s a f e t y m a n Harry
Cheatwood were consistent
ly stopping ball carriers.
NINE UNASSISTED
Meylan had his second
consecutive nine unassisted
tackle performance and
helped with four assisted
stops.
Cheatwood, who collabor
ated in a glaring 19 tackles
(eight unassisted), estab
lished an OSU season rec
ord with 92 total tackles.
After scoring their sixth
series win over OSU, the
Huskers praised the small
er Cowboys.
"They were hard to sus
tain a block on," said offen
sive tackle Bob Taucher.
"You could get a good ini
tial hit and then they started
to slide off."
QUICK DEFENSE
"Our quick smashes and
end sweeps were working
well," he added.
"They had a real quick
defense," offensive guard
Mel Brichacek said.
The scrambling tech
niques of signal caller John
son, who tossed five comple
tions in 15 attempts for 66
yards, caused Nebraska to
make a defensive readjust
ment. "We (Nebraska ends)
were rushing more because
we knew they had a rollout
quarterback and our as
signment was to get him,"
Wynn said.
GOOD SCRAMBLER
"Johnson was one of the
better scramblers we've
been up against," he added.
"It was one of the better
games," defensive tackle
Harry (Piggie) Meagher
said. "Although we did let
them out of containment a
few times."
The win moved Nebras
ka's season record to 6-2
and 3-2 in Big Eight play
good for a fourth place tie
with next week's foe, the
Missouri Tigers.
The defeat dropped OSU
to 2-4-1 overall and to sixth
place in the league with a
1-3 mark.
