yards on 31 carries, eclipsing the old mark of 255
yards set by Richard Berns asinst lliouri in 1 S73.
With that performance, Rosier est&bished hknself as
the edds-on favorite to win the Heisxnsxi Trophy.
"I'm not going to say I don't want the Ikisraan
Trophy Rozier said, "But if I dont win it, you just
come around, 111 probably still bo partying. .
One thing Rozier can control Is how many yards
he runs for, end Saturday he wanted Berns' record.
I talked to coach (Frank) Solich about the
record," Rozier said. Tm happy I got it"
Rozier said there were some nervous times for
him before he was able to get the record. He had 248
yards in the third quarter when Gill called Roger's
number on an isolation play. However, Gill audibled
out of the running play to a pass. The pass was
intercepted and with the Huskers leading 47-0, it
looked like Rozier might never get a chance at the
record he wanted.
"When Mike had 211 yards we started talking
about It ( the record), wLback Irving Fryar said.
We told him, 'Man, ycuYc had enouh.'He got kind of
mad but we were Just teasing him."
Rozier then decided to lobby for a chance to break
the record.
. "I asked Coach Osborne and I asked the offensive,
line for the record," Rozier said. "I told them I
needed about eiht more yards to do it"
An isolation play on the second possession of the
second half broke Bern3' record. The single-game
rushing mark was just one of many records set or
approached by Rozier during the game.
Rozier's 1,943 rushing yards this season breaks
the Eig Eight record of 1 ,877 set by Ernest Anderson
of Oklahoma State last year. Rozier also had 4,575
career rushing yards, just seven yards short of the
record set by Oklahoma State's Terry Miller in the
mid-703.

Nebraska basketball fans will have their first
opportunity to watch the 1033-84 Cornhuskers
Wednesday night when Coach Moe Iba's team takes
on the Brandon University Bobcats in a 7:35 p.m.
exhibition game at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
Canada's Brandon University, in Brandon, Manit
oba, is in a city of 40,000 people about 1 20 miles from
the provincial capital of Winnipeg. About 2,200 stu
dents attend the university, Dwight Kearns, Bran
don's basketball coach, said.
The Bobcats will bring a 5-2 record to Lincoln
after playing in a three-day tournament in Ontario
over the weekend. The team returned to Brandon
on Sunday night, and was scheduled to leave for
Lincoln Tuesday morning by van. Lincoln is about
750 miles from Brandon, Kearns said. Th Bobcats
will continue their traveling after the Nebraska
game, playing at Kansas Thursday night and Iowa
State on Saturday.
"Sometimes, I feel like I'm coaching a travel club
instead of a basketball team," Kearns said.
Brandon finished last season with a 34-8 record
and was ranked third in the nation in Canada's
largest classification, Kearns said. Several players
with all-conference credentials are back from that
team and will start against Nebraska, Kearns said.
John Carson, a 6-4 sophomore forward from Hun
tersville, N.C., was a first team selection on last
year's all-Canadian team, Kearns said, as well as
earning all-Great Plains Athletic Conference
honors.
Will Marshall, a 6-8 senior center from Texas, is a
former all-conference selection who is making a
comeback after sitting out last season with a back
injury, Kearns said.
Two j uniors, Grant Coulter and Earl Roberts, will
open at the guards. Coulter, 6-1, who is from Bran
don, and the Roberts, 6-0, a Toronto native, were
both all-conference picks a year ago.
Kearns said the Bobcats like to play an "up
tempo" game.
"We like to run and play a fast style of ball," Kearns
said, "but I dont know if well be able to do that
against Nebraska."
Kearns said the games against the three Big Eight
schools were scheduled as a recruiting tool for
Brandon.
. "They (the Big Eight schools) gave us a pretty
good guarantee," he said. "We're not going to be
spending any money on the trip. In fact, we're going
to make some money." '
Brandon was able to get a good scouting report on
the Huskers, Kearns said. Jerry Hemmings, who is
on leave of absence as Brandon's head coach, is
currently serving as a volunteer coaching assistant
at Tulane, one of Nebraska's opponents in last year's
National Invitational Tournament. ,
"Jerry gave us a lot of information on Nebraska,
but we havent had much time to prepare for them,"
Kearns said. "I know they've got a good team. They're
big and strong, and well just go down and do the
best we can. We're really looking forward to the
experience of playing a team like Nebraska."
