NO. 2 NEBRASKA Oklahoma State fell to Tulsa but bounced back with a win over Mississippi State. Then the Cowboys had a week off to prepare for NU. "Hey, we could take three weeks for these guys," said OSU Coach Bob Simmons before Nebraska beat Washington 55-7. NU Coach Frank Solich expects OSU will have the same advantage Nebraska had with an extra week to prepare for Washington.

Solich said the difference between OSU of 1 995 and OSU of 1 998 is athletes. "There is a major difference in terms of their approach and the number of true athletes on their team. It showed last year that their program is moving In the right direction and it is showing again this year. It doesn't appear to. us they have any weaknesses.

They have had some fine and receivers. But they haven't seemed lo be able to put it all together. Now, my feeling is that they have it all together offensively. And they have a defense that can really pressure you." vu 1 Just when it appeared Huskers were all better, DeAngeb Evans, with one game in 21 months (and a great one at that), may be out with a toe Injury. Hi3 status won't be determined until just before game time.

He missed the last three days of practice. Defensive tackle Jason Wiltz and linebacker Tony Ortiz will regain their starting positions. rjvs.TC?io 1 i 1CTCnY LFTSGViN i After blowing put Nos, 8 and 91. Washington, Nebraska mightbe up for a letdown. Last year, Nebraska beat No.

5 Colorado, then lost to unranked Texas. In 1 995, Nebraska beat No. 8 Kansas State, then beat No. 7 Colorado then beat Iowa State 73-14 in consecutive weeks. No problems of letdown in 1 994 or 1 993, but the famous fizzle in 1 992 came after back-to-back blowouts of No.

8 Colorado and No. 1 3 Kansas followed by a loss at Iowa State. "We've heard of that one and we just don't allow ourselves to get too high or too low so we don't have letdowns," said NU rush end Chad Kelsay. 4 Playar i Ho.
