Flying tackle... Nebraska's Rich Glover (79) stops elusive Ernie Cook.

Record crowd sees instant replay
by Jim Johnston
Saturday afternoons at
Memorial Stadium don't really
change much in a week.
Oh, temperatures were in
the low 50s last Saturday
instead of the 90s. And a
record crowd of 68,137 (which
means a record number of
fence climbers) witnessed the
game against Minnesota
compared to the 67,437 fans at
the Oregon game.
THERE WERE EVEN a few
changes on the field. The
Cornhuskers used the "big
play" passing game instead of
the "ground-it-out" running
attack. Johnny Rodgers was
the scoring star, catching three
touchdown passes, instead of
I-back Gary Dixon who ran for
three touchdowns against
Oregon.
But things were about the
same as they were the week
before. Students found a new
way to entertain themselves
during the dull fourth quarter
by collecting liquor bottles.
But when it was all over, it all
seemed the s.imc.
Fans again left pleased that
the Cornhuskers had scored a
big win (35-7) which should
continue to impress the
pollsters. But they also left
bored by the lopsided score.
Even the dressing rooms
were the same.
LOCKER NO. 10 in the
visitors' dressing room, for
example, served as the dressing
quarters for another depressed
quarterback. Minnesota
quarterback Craig Curry stood
in front of locker No. 10, just
like Oregon quarterback Dan
Fouts did a week earlier, and
expressed the helpless feeling
while playing against the
Cornhuskers.
"They didn't surprise us,"
said Curry. "We knew they
were going to be great and they
were. They had us scouted
perfectly. Nebraska is a great
football team and I wish them
the best of luck."
Gopher head coach Murray
Warmath echoed the words of
Oregon coach Jerry Frei.

better than we were," said
Warmath. "Bob Devaney has a
fine team which executes
perfectly and is beautifully
trained. If you can think of
anything more complimentary
to say. put it in your paper and
I'll say I said it."
At the other end of the
football field, underneath the
north end zone seats, the
Nebraska football team was
going through, the same ritual
that it's done for the last 10
home games.
The Cornhuskers, who have
played 21 games without a
loss, have a i2-game winning
streak at Memorial Stadium.
NEBRASKA SPORTS
information director Don
Bryant was again rounding up
the same contingent of stars to
discuss the game with
reporters. Included in the list
of usuals were quarterback
Jerry Tagge, flanker Johnny
Rodgers, cornerback Joe
Blahak and guard Keith
Wortman.
"Minnesota was ready for
our running game and had it
pretty well defensed," said
Tagge, "But they left open our
deep passing game so we took
advantage of it."
Tagge explained the success
story of Nebraska's offense.
"WE'RE PREPARED for
anything a team throws at us,"
said Tagge. 'it may take a
while before we get moving,
but once the coaches know
what the opposition is doing
we can move against it."
Tagge had his usual
consistent day.
The Green Bav. Wis., senior
connected on 15 of 21 passing
attempts for 218 yards. His
career yardage total jumped to
3,207 as he moved into fourth
place in the all-time Big Eight
list.
AS USUAL , head coach
Bob Devaney was the last to be
interviewed. It was the same
cautious Devaney who has
greeted the press during the
21-game unbeaten string.
"We made a few more
mistakes this week than we did
against Oregon," said Devaney.

"But we're farther ahead this

Then Devaney, as usual,
warned about next week's
opponent.
"This Texas A & M outfit
(which lost to LSU, 37-0,
Saturday) isn't a bad football
team," said Devaney. "We have
to be ready for next week."
But will things really change
next week? It's doubtful.
