Equipment manager Floyd Bottorff sent student managers to clean s battle scars off helmets from the Michigan game-but the Huskers wouldn't let the job be done.l : "The kids were proud, of those stains and wanted to keep them on their helmets," Bottorff said. That's a good sign they're really eager to go." With a couple of minutes left in the game, Husker tackle Lloyd Voss who didn't want to be inter- vieweu at iiuu-wcca tame off the field, grinned and said: "I still don't have any- thing toay just senAJhe clippings to Mr. Stapleton." Co-captain Bill (Thunder) Thornton, who had to sit out the. most of the game after spraining an ankle, said he asked to be taken out of the game a couple of plays after he got hurt "I was blocking and the 'pile fell on me," Bill said. "I thought it was just a nerve, but I couldn't dig and when I couldn't pull a "guy who just had hold of my pants I thought it was time in rtaf Aiif V 1 .Thornton expressed disap- Cornhusker Spirit on Husker Noel Martin ran so players are up and shouting during & Big pointment because" he couldn't play longer, "I really wanted to play," he said.

Husker halfback Willie Ross said "Iowa State has ; a good team--but we've got-two, even 3, good teams. End Mike Eger. who W- 8 fered a cut on his eyebrow 0 in the 4th quarter, grinned, "You couldn't beat that , first half, could you?" Big Bob Brown, a stand out blocker and linebacker all day, was cutting tape off his ankle when . he said, "We've got a good team. I guess you always get a little jnad at thejjuysjrou think can stop you from being champs. I felt all along, that if we got by this game we could go all the way ' we're sure going to fry." Co-captain Dwain Carlson -thought Michigan might have a slight line advant- . age over Iowa State, but not in the backfield. "t don't think Iowa State hit quite as hard up front, but they've got good backs, and they really hit hard.' Tackle Tyrone Robertson disagreed slightly, saying, "Iowa State hits a little harder than Michigan on those outside sweeps. Iowa State is more polished than Michigan was because they've played more games and know what they're do-ing." v. s Nebraska : Left ends Larry Donovan, Lar ry Tomlinson, BiH Comstock, Mike Eger.
