The Nebraska offensive line also
earned praise from Mason.
“I don’t know who has had a bet
ter (offensive line) since I’ve been
around,” he said. “They’ve been aw
fully good this year.”
Kansas is getting better, Mason
said. He said the Jayhawks never gave
up in coming from behind to beat
Oklahoma State 13-6 in Stillwater,
Okla.
“It was just a tremendous effort,”
Mason said. “It was a great win for
us on the road. It’s great because
these guys have been tremendous for
us this year. They’ve worked hard,
and they’ve kept a good attitude.”
But, Mason says, Kansas can’t be
any more flabbergasted now than they
have been in the past against Nebras
ka.
Last season, the Jayhawks brought
the 13th-ranked team in the country
to Lincoln. The Huskers mauled Kan
sas, leading 35-7 at intermission on
their way to a 49-7 victory.
Two seasons ago in Lawrence,
Kansas jumped out to a 17-0 lead
before Nebraska took over and ran
away with a 59-23 win. Calvin Jones
rushed for 294 yards and six touch
downs as a freshman.

about how the freshmen will play.”
Houston’s play, with five true
freshmen and one redshirt fresh
man, is never certain, Walton said.
“Some nights they’ll play like
seniors, and other nights you don’t
know what they’ll do,” he said.
Despite the uncertain play of
Houston this season, Haley warned
the Huskcrs not to overlook the
Cougars when they open against
them on Friday at 6 p.m.
“I think Nebraska needs to just
not take Houston very lightly,”
Haley said. “Every time I see them
play, they play better.”
The Cougars have won six
straight matches.
“We knew it would take awhile
for us to come along this season,"
Walton said. “I don’t know if we’re
playing as good as we can, but
there is no doubt that we’re play
ing better.”
Walton said all three teams
should benefit from the competi
tion.
“We’re getting ready to play
the conference tournament in two
weeks,” he said. “And to play na
tionally ranked opponents at this
time of the season is very benefi
cial.”
