JV football is 44; still not playing at full potential
thursday, november 8, 1979
By Paul Martin
The Husker junior varsity football team will attempt to
end their season on a winning note Friday afternoon when
they travel to Manhattan to challenge the Kansas State
reserves.
"We're going to be ready to show everybody what kind
of a ball team we are," starting offensive left tackle Dan
Schmuecker said.
Although the squad has suffered only one setback in
four games this year, a 19-13 loss to Missouri last Friday
in Columbia, the team has yet to play to its full potential,
according to Head Coach Frank Solich .
"We didn't play as well as we're capable of (against
Missouri)," Solich said. "We haven't put together a
complete ball game vet."
Schmuecker, a 6 foot 4 inch, 255 lb. freshman from
Omaha Burke, said a "lack of concentration" contributed
to the problems of the team, particularly the offensive
line, against Missouri.
Solich said the line played inconsistently against the
Tigers and were guilty of several illegal motion penalties
which hindered Husker drives.
WHEN THE TEAM worked out of poor field
position-which plagued them most of the after-noon-they
were hurt by motion infractions that caused
long yardage situations, according to Solich.
In an effort to correct that Solich said the team is
"working on coming off the ball" and on eliminating
"motion-type penalties" this week in preparation for the
Wildcats.
"Monday we spent almost the whole practice just
coming off the ball," Schmuecker said.
Solich said they also were working at holding on to the
football, something they didn't do well against Missouri.

TTie Husker JVs coughed up the ball five times in that
game, losing four of them.
Solich said he wasn't happy with the fact that the team
didn't "progress well enough to beat Missouri," but added
that he was pleased with the squad's overall effort.
Solich said the K-State junior varsity would probably
play several upperclassmen just as Missouri, who played a
few seniors, did against the Cornhuskers.
But the nearly all freshmen Husker JV squad has been
at a disadvantage from an experience standpoint in all of
their games this year. Facing an older, more experienced
Wildcat club will be nothing new to them.
KANSAS STATE had a game against Missouri
cancelled earlier this year so it is difficult to size up the
task facing the young Huskers, according to Solich.
Schmuecker said the offensive line '"just has to sit in
Wrestling
Continued from Page 12
FEHRS SAID HE likes the mark system because
it allows each wrestler -two matches. Even if a wrest
ler doesn't win, he said, he still gains experience from two
matches.
"We told the wrestlers to get some individual goals and
then try and make them realistic goals as well," he said.
However, Assistant Coach Mona Smith said there's
nothing wrong with shooting for the top.
"Each guy should say to himself 'I want to win my
own weight.' It's a goal that everyone should set for
themselves," he said.
But, Fehrs said if a wrestler gets beat by a top seeded
wrestler, he shouldn't be discouraged. -

He said there is a tendency to lose concentration after
seeing the same plays over and over again, which shows up
as mental errors in games.
Solich said the team is working towards putting
together a complete ball game against the Wildcats.
"The coaches said we'd cut out the fancy stuff this
week and take it right at them and see what we have,"
Schmuecker said.
Kansas State will be looking for their second win
against two losses while the Huskers will try to finish at 4-4-1.
The game will be played at KSU and is scheduled to
start at 1:00 pjn.
"IT JUST SHOWS he didn't really have a realistic
grasp on what he did initially," he said.
Two Huskers have been seriously injured during
UNL's long practice season, Fehrs said.
Senior Agron Vasha re-injured his neck, and freshman
Tom Dobbs underwent back surgery for a ruptured disc
Wednesday.
Last year, when Vasha injured his neck the first time,
he missed about half the season, Fehrs said. Doctors
thought he would be able to wrestle this year, but because
it was a nerve injury it can't be treated very well, he said.
Fehrs said he thought Dobbs' back was slightly injured
before practice started in September, and then was
aggravated during practice. "
