Nebraska's hopes of winning an
unprecedented sixth straight
national fyinn antics championship

Huskers finished fifth and failed to
make the Saturday afternoon team
finab. .
UCLA won the team finals, defeat
ing Penn State and Ohio State and
recording a score cf 2S7.3Q, only .50
off Nebraska's record last year in
the NCAA championships.
Nebraska's defeat was all the more
disappointing because the Huskers
led top-ranked UCLA after the first
rotation in Friday's team com-
' petition. .
But Nebraska fell apart on the
next rotation pommel horse as
the Huskers averaged only 8.8. That
dropped the Huskers out of the top
three spots and they were never
able to recover.
Nebraska's coach Francis Allen
didn't think Nebraska's fifth place
finish was indicative of their ab-
ilities.
Nebraska's score of 277.65 .was
2 15 points behind third place Ohio
State and 1.20 behind fourth place
Iowa State.
UCLA's dominance was made
clear in the all-around competition
where the Bruins' trio of Mitch Gay
lord, Tim Dsggett, and Chris Caso
finished first, second and third.
Nebraska's Chris Ricgel finished
fourth.

fifth in the parallel bars and sixth

This was the second straight year
Riegel had won the vault. Last year
he and Mark Oates of Oklahoma
recorded scores of 9.05.

"Cold!" said Nebraska Coach Tom Osborne as he
entered the locker room tunnel at Memorial Sta
dium late Saturday afternoon.
Osborne had just finished watching his team's
two-hour scrimmage, held in cold, windy and rainy
weather that sometimes hampered play.
,lt was a tough day to play football," Osborne said,
"but I saw some good things on both sides of the line
of scrimmage."
Osborne said he was generally pleased with the

Huskers' performance, especially the defense.
first defense wasnt scored on all day.
Osborne also praised the top two offensive units,
but said the offense needs more consistency. The
first offense scored two touchdowns but was
bothered by turnovers and penalties. First-team
quarterback Craig Sundberg had the first offense
moving against the first defense when he hit Scott
Kimball with a 29-yard pass. But Sundberg fumbled
two plays later, and defensive end Bill Weber reco
vered the ball to end the drive.
Travis Turner, who shares first-team status with
Sundberg, directed the top offense to a touchdown
in the first drive of the day. Turner scored on a
one-yard plunge, but also had his problems. Corner
back Neil Harris intercepted a Turner pass to kill a
drive later in the scrimmage.
Osborne said the quarterbacks did a fair job but
said they need to work on eliminating turnovers.
Thurman Hoskins led all rushers on the top three
units with 50 yards on five carries. Hoskins scored
on a 22-yard run for the third offense against the
third defense. Scott Porter notched a touchdown on
a -four-yard run for the first offense against the
second defense. Kicker Scott Livingston kicked a

46-yard field goal The most unusual score of the day
came when third-team tackle Kevin Blackmer
picked off a Jerry Mlinar pass and returned it 31
yards for a touchdown.
Defensive coordinator Charlie McBride praised
Blackmer, a 6-4, 250 pounder, who also made two
tackles behind, the line of scrimmage.
"Kevin's a smart kid, and he's playing well,
McBride said. The only thing hurting him right now
is alack of speed." . c
McBride said he thinks the defense is making good
progress. He said the pass rush was better than it
has been and praised members of the secondary.
"Our secondary is playing a lot better," he said.
The kids seem more confident than in the past."
McBride also singled out linebacker Mike Knox
and defensive end Scott Strasburger for playing well
in the scrimmsgs-
Several players from the lower units got a chance
to play with the top two units on defense. McBride
said he wanted to see what some of those players
could do against good competition.
"We needed to evaluate .some people who are
down the list, so we can solidiiy our units and really
start zeroing in the last two weeks of practice," he
said.
The lower units produced three more scores near
the end of the scrimmage. Those scores came on a
12-yard pass from Jeff Taylor to tight end Eric
Erickson, a 65:yard run by quarterback Hendley
Hawkins and a 9-yard run by quarterback Clete
Blakeman.
There were no serious injuries during the scrim
mage, trainer George Sullivan said. Tackle Chris
Spachmann suffered a knee bruise, as did tight end
Todd Frain. Blackmer suffered a shoulder bruise.
