Nebraska knows what the
prototype Minnesota football
team is a big line, tough
running backs and a solid
defense.
But such is not the case
with coach Murray
Warmath's Gophers this
year. He has a big line, all
right. It averages over 225
pounds per man. And he has
a stable of outstanding run
ning backs, indicated in the
club's 835 yards total offense
in two games this season,
tough linebackers when Noel
Jenke, Wayne King and John
Darkenwald departed last
year. The vacancies left the
Gophers overwhelmingly
susceptible to passing at
tacks, the most important
weapons upon which their
first two opponents relied.
Warmath needs no lesson on
Nebraska, which will be 'third

straight team in a non-conference
sequence of potential
passing powers. The Huskers
are set to start sophomore
quarterback Van
Brownson.
Brownson, the Big 8's best
percentage passer, will, for
the first time, have his top
receivers at full strength.
Minnesota, however, fails
almost miserably defensive
ly. The Gophers have been
bombed, quite literally, for 83
points in a 48-26 opening loss
to quick Arizona State and in
a 35-35 tie last week with
Ohio University.

who was not at full-speed in
the Huskers' opener against
USC, and split Guy Ingles,
who was sidelined before the
Texas A & M encounter, will

Devaney indicated.
Frank Patrick, who started
the first two games at each
end position, Is slated for
heavy duty, according to
Devaney.
The Gophers will counter
with a productive air game
of their own with
quarterback Phil Hagen at
the controls. Hagen passed
for 278 yards against Arizona
State two weeks ago, but
slacked off somewhat against
Ohio U. last week, sticking
mainly to the ground
game.
Ray Parson, who was a
standout back at McCook Jr.
College, makes Hagen com
bustible. "If there Is a better
tight end in the country,"
Warmath says, "I don't know
about him."
The two most Important
fixtures in the Gopher ground
game are fullback Jim

best backs in the Big 10
Conference, and halfback

Predictions

By Randy York
Sports Editor
Football forecasting is a frivolity, but for those of you
foolish enough to believe in the trade, here s another chance
to stage your own laugh-in.
I fearlessly have predicted two conference upsets
Nebraska over USC and Colorado over Penn State. Neither,
obviously, materialized. In fact, they fell short by 34 combin
ed points.
So, the genuine football sage may indeed read on for
more humor. The other readers are banking on a .750
batting average with 12 successful picks of 16 intra-sectional
games involving Big Eight teams.
The other two misses were KU's tumble at Texas Tech
and Oklahoma State's upset over Houston. This week's selec
tions:
Nebraska 21. Minnesota 14 This could be a double
feature the Huskers' now stingy defense against the
Gophers' gaudy offense. NU's offense, however, presumably

IS mucn more proaucuve aim rename uiou uuucauia a
defense, which has yielded almost 80 points to such relative
have-nots as Arizona State and Ohio University.
Penn Slate 28, Kansas State 21 The nationally-ranked
Nittony Lions will somewhat tranquillze the Wildcats' of
fensive explosion, triggered by quarterback Lynn Dickey.
If K-State's defense improves in its home opener, Dickey
and Mack Herron may manufacture a surprise.
Colorado 24, Iiidluna 21 The Hoosiers are favored,
but CU's Bob Anderson is a tough one to horsecollar two
straight weeks. Penn State's near shutout of the Buffs last
week should turn Anderson loose again.
Missouri 17, Michigan 14 This game has been
designated at even odds by most prognosticators, who
nevertheless give the Wolverines' high-scoring offensive outfit
(43.5 point per game average) the edge over the Tigers'
solid defense. Any team that can outmuscle a Dan Devine
club, however, deserves a high rating.
Kansas 35, New Mexico 7
Iowa State 17, Illinois io The Cyclones' defense will
win this one. Their offense has not been overly impressive,
but the defense registered a shutout last week against BYU
and was almost as resistant In Its opening loss to Syracuse.
Texas Tech 27, Oklahoma State 14 The Cowboys
regained their prestige last week In upsetting Houston, but
who s Houston? Playboy magazine s choice to finish numoec
one in the nation, Hie Cougeis have given up C8 points
In two setbacks. Thut s the naked truth.

Minnesota and Nebraska
are still not at full
quarterback strength.
Although the Huskers'
Brownson has been declared
healthy, his backup, Jerry
Tagge, is not completely
recovered from a pre-season
ankle injury. Hagen is slowed
by a knee strain.
If Hagen does not open for
the Gophers, the job will be
handled by Walt Bowser,
considered a better runner
than Hagen on the option
play, but not considered as
good a passer.
Devaney has never been
beaten by a Minnesota foot
ball team, but unlike the past
games, which have been
close, Saturday's contest
promises more fireworks.
If Hagen and Parson .suc
cessfully collaborate, the
game may be close. The
Gophers can run well too, but
the defense has been
pretensive. The Huskers'
defense seems to be con
structively solid after
registering a 14-0 shutout last
week. .
