Friday, Nov. 26, 1971 D-3 HONOLULU ADVERTISER Jeff ICi nney our guys played their hearts out' 1 a happy hero 4 3 13 i I MS-I' 3SS NORMAN, Okla. (UPI) "Our guys played their hearts out, but we just came up short," Oklahoma coach Chuck Fairbanks said after the Sooners' 35-31 loss to No. 1 Nebraska yesterday. "Obviously I'm extremely disappointed with the loss.

I have no way to hide my disappointment, but I'm not at all disappointed with the team," he said, speaking quietly, eyes lowered: Fairbanks said his players "have no reason to hang their heads in shame but this game meant so much to them." "I am proud for coach Bob Devaney and his team," Fairbanks said. "Nebraska has a great team. They are true champions." Oklahoma Gov. David Hall, Nebraska Gov. James Exon and House Speaker Carl Albert of Oklahoma all came to the dressing room to congratulate Fairbanks and his team on their effort.

"It was a great game," Hall said. "I was happy with everything except the score." 1: 1 i UPI Photo and leave the field. "This kid Jeff Kinney, that's the finest job of running the football by a back I've ever seen," Devaney said. "He ran over people, broke tackles, ran around them and ran through them." THERE WAS no doubt where Devaney placed Thanksgiving Day of 1971 in his celebrated coaching career. "This is possibly the greatest victory to date, the greatest of my career, coming from behind against a great Oklahoma team," he said.

(UPI) It took President Nixon 30 minutes to get through yesterday, but. he perse- vered to congratulate Ne-: braska coach Bob Deva-''' ney.

Devaney declined to comment on what the President told him, but at least part of the con-'' versation obviously dealt with Nebraska's appear- ance against Alabama in the Orange Bowl Jan. 1. "Thank you, sir," De- vaney said to the Presi- dent. "Alabama is a fine team, but I don't think our boys are looking past Hawaii next week." The President's phone call came to the press box at Owen Field sec- onds after the game ended. Several attempts were made to patch the call into the locker room, but finally the operator said Devaney could call back to the White House.

(UPI)-Jeff Kinney's face broke into a grin as wide as the rips in his shredded jersey. "This was the most important game of my career, my life, anybody's life," he said. THE 210-POUND Nebraska running back spoke with the relish of someone who has just hung up a lofty goal for himself and then bounded above it. It was Kinney's bruising running that brought the top-ranked Corn-huskers from behind to defeat second-ranked Oklahoma, 35-31, in college football's Game of the Year. Kinney gained only 20 yards in the first half, but pounded and slashed for 151 yards in the second half.

"I ran harder than I ever have," he said. "I DON'T think we really established our kind of game in the first half," he. said. "In the second half we came out and did what we do best." Cornhusker coach Bob Devaney, who called the game the biggest of his career, could hardly find words for "Kinney's performance. OS? fHn.
