Colorado coach Eddie
Crowder is known for going to
his bag of tricks when the
Buffalos play Nebraska. His
trick for the 1971 game with
the Cornhuskers could include
speedster Cliff Branch.
"Colorado actually hasn't
used Branch as much this year
as they have before," said
Nebraska coach Bob Devaney
of the Buff split end. "They
usually like to use Branch more
against us."
Branch has caught 1 1 passes
for 289 yards this season. He's
playing second best in the
Colorado receiving department,
however, to his backup Willie
Nichols who has caught 12
passes.
BRANCH IS extremely
fast. He is the co-holder of the

"You can't let Branch beat
you deep," said Devaney.
"Once he gets you deep it's
good-bye. You have to avoid
getting a guy oneon-one once
Branch gets the football."
Defensive secondary coach
Warren Powers, however, said
there is no special coverage
planned for Branch.
"It's difficult to double
team a guy when a team runs a
triple option offense like
Colorado, said Powers. "We
have to treat him just like
another receiver, but we
definitely respect him more for
his speed."
BRANCH HAS also earned
a good reputation for his punt
returning ability. He has
returned 20 punts for 324
after pro bid

cut recently. Ingles then signed
with the Cincinnati Bengals,
but was cut Friday after being

"We've uone a goou juu ui
covering punts this year and
we'll have to do a good job
against Colorado," said
Devaney. "We have to try and
punt high and get the ball
covered quickly."
Devaney said the Buffs have
more offensive potential than
any team Nebraska has played
yet this year. The Colorado
running attack could also
present some differences
Saturday.

championship Wednesday night
on a muddy Vine Street field
with a 1 2-0 triumph over

The Abel unit scored once
in the first half and added an
insurance touchdown on a pass
interception on the last play of
the third quarter to gain the
victory.
Harper battled back in the
fourth quarter, retaining the

Lately, however, Colorado has
been gaining its yardage inside.
"I LOOK FOR Colorado to
try the wide running plays
against us," said Nebraska
defensive line coach Monte
Kiffin. "They used the triple
option a little more against
Missouri last week and 1 think
they're gradually getting back
to it."

DAVIS' YARDAGE
recently, however, has been
from inside runs. He's still
averaging 99 yards per game

situations.
