QUAD-CITY TIMES COLLEGE FOOTBALL 5S Sunday, Sept 5, 1993 NORTH TEXAS-NEBRASKA I 1 '4 Blowout victory brings apologies i Y'j 'y II Osborne Jones A A ty i fa A 1 -'It 1 1 1 -y- ftmnfriiiii ummn if in Not even injuries slow Cornhuskers LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) Things got so out of hand in No. 9 Nebraska's game with Division I-AA North Texas that each coach felt the need to apologize. Reserve quarterbacks Brook Ber-ringer and Tony Veland accounted for five touchdowns Saturday as the Cornhuskers opened with a 76-14 rout of the outmanned Eagles. Starter Tommie Frazier sprained his ankle on the second play of the game, but it hardly mattered.

Nebraska scored the first five times it had the ball and the longest of its 10 touchdown drives required only 3 minutes, 1 9 seconds. "I was a little sorry about the score, but I don't know what to do about it," Nebraska coach Tom Osborne said. "I'm not sure what this proves. I think we've got a good team. I've said that all along." North Texas coach Dennis Parker said: "It was a real nightmare.

If they are asking coach Osborne about not letting the score get run up this bad, that's our fault. I take all the blame for us losing the ball-game 76-14. 1 apologize to coach Osborne for us not being a more worthy opponent."

(AP) Kerry Joseph ran for one touchdown, passed for another and McNeese State's defense also helped the Cowboys throttle Northern Iowa 27-10 to break a six-game losing streak against the Panthers.

The season opener for both teams also enabled McNeese to avenge two losses a year ago to Northern Iowa, the last in the opening round of the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs. The defense made a major contribution, forcing three fumbles, intercepting three passes and holding Northern Iowa backs to just 28 rushing yards. With the score tied 3-3, freshman safety Zack Branson returned a pass interception 48 yards for a touchdown that gave McNeese a 10-3 lead it never relinquished. Another Branson interception and a sack by strong safety Lance Guidry also set up a 22-yard field goal by Jose Lo- rios and a 33-yard touchdown run by Joseph in the third period.

Junior tailback Fred Moore carried 32 times for 182 yards and two touchdowns to lead fr Montana State. Moore scored the game's second I touchdown to give the Bobcats (1-0) a 14-0 lead in the second quarter. He clinched the win late In the fourth quar-' ter with a 40-yard run for the final score. Air Force 63, i Indiana State 21 AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. Scott Teigen threw for two touchdowns and scored another himself, and Jake Campbell scored three touchdowns to lead the Air Force Academy.

Teigen, a senior making his first start, was Impressive in directing the wishbone attack against Division l-AA 1 Indiana State. The 6-foot, 175-pounder led the Air Force to a 42-14 lead before he was replaced at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Statistics: 1 IS land passed for one and ran for another. Nebraska also lost running back Calvin Jones to a knee sprain early in the second half, after he had scored twice and rushed for 124 yards on 16 carries. Osborne said Jones would be out two or three weeks, but the ligaments appear to be sound in the knee.

"Other than the injuries it was a good performance," Osborne said. "But when you factor in the injuries, it's not so good. We're like anybody else in the country. We have one or two players we can't afford to lose, and that starts with Tommie Frazier and Calvin Jones." Osborne said Frazier could have returned to the game, but he elected to hold him out because of the play of Berringer and Veland. Statistics: US Kansas State running back J.J.
