Nebraska picked in weekend of predicted upsets
It was another week of unset Tn th
-j -- v.-, univ nvivil I 113
many as the week before but two top 10 teams, Georgia
and Notre Dame, bit the dust. The same should happen
this week.
Penn State At Nebraska. Nebraska bounced back from
the Iowa loss better than almost anyone thought they
would, but they face another tough test this week in the
Nittany Lions.
Penn State enters the game with a higher ranking than
the Huskers, but the only team they've played is Cincin
nati, a team that has given up 90 points in two games. The
MS
Lions will find Nebraska's defense tougher than that.
Nebraska will likely have a tougher time moving the
ball on Penn State than they did against Florida State, but
if Roger Craig runs like he did last week, no one can stop
him: Nebraska 21 , Penn State 10
Fans polled. . .

"Nebraska doesn't have the team they've had the last
two years," Stone said. "This is definitely a prestige game.
I really feel they (Penn State) want to win this one
badly."
"Everybody's excited about the game," said Robert
Duich, a bartender at Zeno's, a State College, Pa., bar fre
quented by students.
"We've got a tough schedule this year. If we can win
this game, it will give the team some confidence," Duich
said.
Duich put Penn State to win by 10 points.
That was a conservative guess compared to Mike
Kerrigan's. Kerrigan, a patron of Zeno's and a senior from
Morrisville, Pa., picked the Lions to win by three touch
downs. "Nebraska lost , a lot of players and we're a lot better
than last year. Last year we had a lot of new guys at the
Oklamohm at USC. This might be the first time the
No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the country have played each
other this early. Barry Switzer must be wishing it was a lit
tle later in the season. The Sooners are always, slow getting
out of the gate and last week's open date didn't help mat
ters any.
USC doesn't have the depth at tailback they did last
year due to the graduation of Eric Will, but they still have
Marcus Allen. Allen is the Bruce Springsteen of college
football - he's The Boss. He is one of those rare players
who has the ability to completely dominate a game.
Both teams can move the ball so the real test will be
defensively. Thee, the Sooners are hopelessly overmatch
ed. Chip Banks and Company put the hit on the Sooners:
USC 28, Oklahoma 20
BYU at Colorado. Gene McCarthy once said of Sen.
Henry Jackson, "If he's elected president you'll never see
the sun. The sky will be black with planes." The same
could be said of BYU's passing game. Just substitute foot
balls for planes.
After winning their opener, Colorado returned to form
last week against Washington State, giving up two touch
downs in two minutes, both on turnovers.
skill positions. Now they've got a year's experience,"
Kerrigan said.
Kerrigan said he watched the Nebraska-Florida State
game on ESPN.
"Nebraska didn't look that good. They scored a lot on
fluke plays," Kerrigan said.
Kerrigan compared the game to the Penn State-Ohio
State game in 1978 which was played in Columbus. Penn
State won that one 19-0.
"This is a big game," Kerrigan said. "It will be very dis
appointing if we lose."
Amy Lessing, another customer at Zeno's, was more
cautious in her predictions. She picked Penn State to win
by six.
"Nebraska's no good this year, and we are," Lessing
said.
Not everyone was excited about the game. A woman
who asked not to be identified said, "I don't know any
thing about football. I only follow baseball."
Scott Ehlers won the men's intramural cross country
meet with a time of 12:56. Michael Fertig finished the
2.5 mile course in 13:00 to finish second. Sherry Pinker
ton won the women's meet in 17:00 with Barb Stefanski
placing second at 18:04.
The team of Karen Anderson and Kyle Anderson won
the co-recreational title with a combined score of 32:49.
The team of Lynn Rosenlof and Mark Davidson placed
second in 33:27.
Love Memorial Hall won the women's team title with
the women's crew club coming in second. Men's team
winners were Harper 8 and Farmhouse.
The men's swimming and diving team is forming a tim
ing team for the upcoming season. Interested people
