Other nominations will be Kansas City UP) The District 5AJ1-American Selection Board took a long, hard look Thursday at performances of all area players in games played so far and nominated 11 players for consideration for the Ail-American team that will be selected early in December. Missouri tailback Joe Moore and Colorado defensive end Herb Orvis got the biggest support from the four-member selection board. The other players nominated are offensive tackle Larron Jackson and defensive tackle Rocky Wallace, both of Missouri; offensive center Don Popplewell of Colorado; safety Tony Washington and kicker made as the season progresses.

The selection board includes Bob Hentzen, sports editor of the Topeka Capital-Journal, Topeka, Bill Connors, sports editor of the Tulsa, Okla. World; Mahlon Aldridge, general manager of radio station KFRU, Columbia, and Leighton Housh, JERRY MURTAUGH WAY sports editor of the Register and Tribune, Des Moines, Iowa. Area nominations for the Little All-American team are made by John Egan, sports editor of the Argus-Leader, Sioux Falls, S.D. Connors saw Moore play In last Saturday's 40-20 Missouri victory over Oklahoma State and described the Tiger star as "easily the outstanding Big Eight player I've seen this season. He looked almost as quick as he did strong in the harvest against Oklahoma State -if that is possible.

"On the basis of what he showed Saturday, I would rate him on the same level with Steve Owens (Oklahoma's Heisman Trophy winner of 1969) with this qualification: They are equal in strength. Moore is faster. Owens was more durable. I believe. I can't imagine a finger or a toe putting Owens out of a game.

Nevertheless, Moore is a bonafide All- A Humm Qets Quarterback Call For Huskers backfleld by Lincoln Northeast's Maury Damkroger Frala, who sent his current club against Tiger varsity redshirts in a 14-14 standoff last week, says his team "looks better than last year's squad.

Astroturf A Factor Not only Is Dan Devlne one of the top football coaches in the country, but the Missouri mentor may also rank as one of the best long-range weather forecasters. When Devlne was asked six weeks ago on the annual Big Eight Skywriters Tour what effect he thought artificial turfg would have on the outcome of football games this fail, he used this week's Nebraska-Missouri game as a possible example. "I don't think the actual playing of a game on artificial turf will have any bearing on the outcome," he pointed out, "But I think it could be a big factor in preparing for a game. "Suppose that the week we play Nebraska, the weather is bad both in Lincoln and in Columbia. Nebraska has an artificial turf and will be able to work outside even in bad weather.

"We don't and thus would have to prepare to play Nebraska Indoors. This couidd be a factor." And that possible example cited six weeks ago has become a reality this week. It could prove advantageous for Nebraska. Last week this corner hit on 41 of 56 selections for a percentage of .732, boosting the season mark to 146-58-4 for .712.

That Iowa State and Nebraska lock on team statistical leads in the Big Eight Conference has finally been broken with Missouri and Kansas taking over three offensive top spots.

The Cyclones and Cornhuskers, however, kept their stranglehold on the defensive side of the ledger, but big adjustments could come this weekend with three Big Eight tests slated. Joe Moore celebrated the best day of his career, running for 186 yards, while Missouri rang up 427 rushing lengths. Two other Tiger backs, James Harrison (120) and Mike Farmer (101), broke the 100-yard plateau against Oklahoma State. This let the Missourians move to the top in rushing offense, showing a 277.3 average and a 407.3 total-offense mark. Kansas, riding another big running and scoring day by John Riggins and the accurate touchdown throwing of Dan Heck, bumped its scoring average to 32 points after the 49-point burst against New Mexico.

Nebraska, though, was able to hang onto its passing-offense top spot (181.8) and now maintains the second-best total-offense reading, a 401.0 average. The Huskers continue to throw the ball at a record-breaking proficiency rate, The Jerry Tagge-led Nebraskans have been successful almost 65 per cent of the time they have gone overland for yards. For the Husker Black Shirts the pride in their tradition continues with the best in rushing defense (118.3) and total defense (251.1).

Thus the league's leader in running and total offense meets the pacesetter in running and total defense.

The Cyclones still lead in pass defense (104 average), building their margin over last week by snipping the vaunted Utah aerial attack at 73 yards. The Iowang are allowing just over a touchdown a game (7.3 points) to hold a three-point edge over Nebraska. Iowa State also jumped to second in total defense (274.3) while recording its third straight win, which is the first time since 1961 it has piled up three in a row.

Last season Havrison played against the Cornhuskers in one of his three appearances of the year. He netted a total of eight yards.

But Harrison can't wait to hit the turf this Saturday in Lincoln's Memorial Stadium which gave him his biggest thrill in 1968 when he scored both touchdowns leading to a 1644 Mizzou victory. So far Big Jim's ball carrying duties have been nominal even against the Cowboys' Joe Moore gained a career high of 188 yards but bis unsung blocking heroics have paid the Tigers even higher dividends. Moore has praised Harrison's blocks time and again after gaining 604 yards' in Missouri's first four games. A movie buff himself, Harrison commands his own following, at all Tiger' home games. After making a 30-yard gain on a pass reception from Mike Farmer against Minnesota, Harrison received a standing ovation when he was replaced in the Tiger huddle.

He's currently the fifth-leading pass catcher in the Big Eight with 13 catches for 188 yards and three touchdowns. An outstanding kiok returner his first two years, he has pretty much relinquished that chore to sophomore Johnny Rodgers. Like most small players who overcome the odds, Ingles is a likeable sort with a dynamic personality. Adding to his charm, the 21-year-old says, is prematurely gray hair. "Most of the girls like it," he laughs.

(UPI) Guy Ingles defies the odds. The Nebraska split end has been doing it for some time. When he reported for freshman football at Omaha Westside High, he stood 54 and weighed 115 pounds. When, ho was a senior, he had grown to 140 pounds. "It's always been the sort of deal where I was little, but I could play," Ingles says.

"After I started, I just sort of overlooked it." A sensational running back in high school, Ingles is the kind that college coaches try to overlook. But he was just too good. Nebraska scouted him in a game when he scored four touchdowns against Omaha Tech, which was ranked No. 1 in the state at the time. Ingles hasn't grown much since his prep days.

Now a Cornhusker senior, he is 5-9 by 158. And that may be stretching. "It occurred to me that I might never play here," says Ingles.
