But, he said, Oklahoma looked a little bit faster. Oklahoma defeated Missouri 17 13 last week, and Nebraska defeated the Tigers 42-7 earlier this season. Although Nebraska beat Missouri more convincingly, Widenhofcr said he thought the Sooners had more de fensive team speed. “I think it’s going to be a low scoring game, and I think both teams are going to have a tough time moving the ball because of their defenses,” Widenhofcr said. “I think Oklahoma may have a shade more speed on defense, but Nebraska again is better on defense than they’ve ever been.” Widenhofer said he thought the game would be won by the team that capitalized on the other’s turnovers. Valesente also said he thought the game would be decided by defensive play. He said both teams have great talent and speed on defense, and “that’s the key to winning and staying on top in any conference.” Valesente said both teams are consistent. He said Oklahoma and Nebraska have excellent skill-posi tion players on offense. Valesente said that although Ne braska has given out a record number of media credentials and the game is being televised nationally by CBS, he is not particularly excited about the game. “To tell you the truth, I don’t care who wins,” Valesente said. Valesente said he was more con cerned with Kansas’game at Missouri this Saturday. Morton said he is very interested in the game. He said he wishes 'ie could be in Lincoln Saturday. Morton also said he wishes he could have Oklahoma linebacker Dante Jones on his side if he were starting a new team. Morton was responding to a ques tion the Big Eight Service Bureau annually asks the league’s coaches: If you were starting a team from scratch, which Big Eight player (besides a player from your own school) would you choose as the first pick? The only player selected by more than one coach was Oklahoma All America tight end Keith Jackson, who was chosen by McCartney and Ne braska coach Tom Osborne. Three Nebraska players were se lected by opposing coaches. Widen hofer selected Huskcr defensive tackle Neil Smith, Parrish selected Nebraska defensive end Broderick Thomas and Oklahoma defensive end Darrell Reed, and Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer chose Husker quarter back Steve Taylor. Valesente chose Oklahoma State running back and return man Barry Sanders, and Jones chose Holieway. Comhuskers pass Oklahoma in poll By Ine Associated Press Nebraska football coach Tom Osborne said the Comhuskersdeserve of the No. 1 ranking they earned in Monday’s Associated Press poll. Nebraska, which had trailed top ranked Oklahoma throughout the season, received 32 of 60 first-place votes to overtake the No. 2-ranked Sooners. The 9-0 Huskers, who will face Oklahoma Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at Memorial Stadium, finished with 1,164 points, compared to the Soon ers’ 1,128. Rounding out the top 10 were Miami (Fla.), Florida Stale, UCLA, Syracuse, Notre Dame, Clemson, Louisiana State and Auburn. Michigan State was ranked No. 11, followed by South Carolina, Okla homa State, Georgia and Tennessee. Texas A&M, Alabama, Iowa, Pittsburgh and Indiana rounded out the top 20. Letters 'S uperdome' funds are a waste i want to compliment the construc tion crew who arc pulling on the final touches of the new indoor practice field for the football team. They must have been highly motivated to put up the structure in such a short time. I wonder how far thecrcw would be if the structure was a new library. All I seem to hear around this university is that there is a shortage of funds every where. It’s a shame that none of the $13.6 million used to build the “Su perdome” could not have been used to build a badly needed financial aid center. Maybe next year? Go Big Red. Joe Becker senior business Reporter reprimanded, called inexperienced I’ve just read an article entitled “Injured Williams Wants OU” (First Down, Oct. 24). Evidently Kent Endacott is cither a very inexperienced reporter with little or no background in investiga tive reporting or an extremely igno rant person with no working knowl edge of the legal term slander. I choose to think you are the first, for no sane journalist would dare write what you did about Coach Harper without more information. I had a discussion with Harper several weeks ago after he received a telephone call from Lincoln. His reply, as he told me, was, “I have no < comment. Talk to the people at s OSU.” Harper is an honorable man, just and fair in dealing with his charges. He is a good teacher and coach. Your implications as to his being unfair and less than professional is harmful to his image and could be detrimental should he ever seek a coaching-teach ing position in the future. Being a writer, 1 have a suggestion lor you — never write anything intil you cover al I the bases. A1 ways tai k to people who know the subject, wonced with the subject, lived with the sub ject and, above all, when it’s a public figure, always talk with the police! Just because someone will not talk with you does not mean what you heard was true. Some remain silent to cover up and not destroy. .....
