But a K- The full answer to the question may come Saturday afternoon at Memorial Stadium, some time after the 1:30 p.m. kickoff for Nebraska and Kansas, but it may have been answered two weeks ago at Tennessee.

In that one, the Jayhawks, after leading by 21-7 at halftime, fell behind the No. 9-ranked Vols by 28-21 late in 'the fourth quarter and Jaynes rallied his troops for a touchdown with 3:15 to play. The difference in the 28-27 loss because we knew we didn't have the personnel to play with them," Jaynes asserted. "This year, you won't see that because we've got a new attitude and I think we've got the personnel on our No. 1 units to play with the good teams." A writer asked the Kansas quarterback how he could so confidently come to that conclusion since they hadn't yet been behind Nebraska or Oklahoma yet this season.

"That's a good question," he agreed. teams save maybe for North. Carolina State, have completed only 16 of 62 attempts against the Husker Black Shirts for a paltry completion percentage of .258 and only 23 yards per game. NU Leads, 55-21-3 Nebraska, which has won the last four games, leads the series with Kansas by 55-21-3 going into Saturday's 80th game in the series that started in 1892. The Huskers have won the last two games by shutouts, 55-0 in 1971 and 56-0 last year.

Going into last week's 13-12 loss to Missouri, the Huskers had blanked the Tigers, 36-0 and 62-0, the last two years. Bouncing Back Nebraska has made Kansas the victim twice in recent years in bounce-back efforts after losses to Missouri. In Bob Devaney's first year, 1962, the Huskers dropped a 16-7 decision to Missouri and came back the next week to spank Kansas 40-16, leading at the half by 32-0. In 1969, Nebraska bowed to Missouri. 17-7, and came back the next week to beat Kansas, 21-17, winning in the closing minutes with the help of a pass interference call and a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty when KU's Emory Hicks disputed the interference call on the pass from Jerry Tagge that hook up in an expected passing duel that could go a long ways toward deciding in the minds of many voters who will get their ballot as the all-Big Eight quarterback for 1973.

By HAL BROWN Star Sports Editor Kansas quarterback David Jaynes sat in front of a room filled with sports writers and broadcasters on their first stop of the Big Eight Skywriters Tour last August and told them he thought one change they'd see in the Jayhawks from recent years would be the ability to come from behind.

Lincoln Southeast's Dan Weaver, after losing 6-0, 6-2 to Iwersen in the finals, pointed out that Iwersen's mother is so dedicated to her son's progress that "she charts every one of his matches and takes notes on whatever mistakes he makes." Iwersen, however, made few, if any, mistakes Friday in leading his Junior Jay teammates to their third consecutive state tennis championship. "He told me that's the best that's fine with the Mets too. because it would give Seaver and Matlack four days rest, their usual schedule, instead of three. "It's been a long, hard fight for us all vear and this is the strongest position we've been in," Seaver said. "In fact, I'm sure you could say we haven't been in a better position all year." The A's, who came into the Series exuding confidence they could become the first non-Yankee team in more than four Creighton Prep also repeated its doubles championship with Toby Cudahy and Tom Dunlap combining to defeat North Platte.

Norfolk's third-seeded doubles tandem of Rob Otte and Dan Brummond upset top-seeded Kearney in the finals to lead the Panthers to the Class championship. Class A is comprised of the 16 largest tennis-playing schools, enrollment-wise. Omaha Ryan's Dan Sloboth outlasted Hastings' Mark Zimmerman, 6-2, 3-6 and 6-3 for the Class individual title.

"I know I played as well as I could and couldn't touch him. I can honestly say I couldn't have beaten him under all almost any circumstances.

Papillion didn't get any sustained drives throughout the Knights one play in the first quarter and that resulted in Southeast's Dick Meginnis being tackled in the end zone by Lincoln High's Lloyd Dennis with help from Jim Marker for a safety. On the Knights' third play from scrimmage Marker intercepted a Tim Hager pass with 10:49 left before halftime. The Links took over on Southeast's 18yard line and, eight plays later, Dave McKinney kicked a 21-yard field goal with 7:18 remaining. After that, both teams moved the ball at times and Lincoln High even scored a touchdown, which was nullified.

Iwersen, an Omaha Creighton Prep senior, credits his mother for helping him annex a third straight Class A singles championship in the Nebraska High School Tennis tournament, here Friday at Dewey Park. "She's really my coach," Iwersen said of his mother, Marcella.

"She got me started in tennis five years ago when I was 12. She used to play in California and influenced me to try it." Iwersen junked other interests such as being a second-baseman in baseball and a backstroker in Matt Iwersen can play at full speed, he'll be a bonus for us." Despite the dilemma with the two Cowboys, the match between Missouri, rated seventh nationally by The Associated Press and the figures to be as close as last year's contest. Running from the wishbone formation, OSU is averaging 42.8 points per match, the highest total of any Big Eight crew. The Tigers have the league's best defensive scoring average, having allowed five opponents 6-1. 230-pounder, in Butler's position.

The reason the two freshmen replacements may be the key is that the Capital City's offense had just started to operate with consistency when Shaw and Butler were hurt. And Shaw and Butler had a big part in NWU's offense working so well. Chaffee feels that his offense must be consistent to help take some of the pressure off the defense. The Plainsmen's defense has only given up 32 points this season. The South Dakota team has plenty of speed and quarterback Doug Murphy is averaging about 140 yards a game passing.

Mizzou By MARK GORDON Star Sports Writer Columbia, Mo. Wherever Oklahoma State quarterback Brent Blackman and split end Steve Pettes are here Saturday at Faurot Field, you can rest assured Missouri will be charting their positions. Both Cowboys are questionable starters because of injuries, but the Tigers remember only too well the havoc they raised last season at Stillwater. The duo combined on a 54-yard touchdown pass with 1:38 to play that lifted OSU to a 17-16 triumph and sent Mizzou skidding to a 2-2 record.

By STEVE GILLISPIE Star Sports Writer Two freshmen may be the key to the Nebraska Wesleyan-Black Hills. S.D., game Saturday night at Magee Stadium. The Plainsmen, now 2-2-1, face the Yellow Jackets, 3-2-1, without two regular starters on offense and coach Harold Chaffee has named two freshmen to fill the vacancies. All-NIAC tackle Dennis Butler, a 6-0, 235-pound senior, sustained a leg injury in NWU's 20-3 win over Concordia last Saturday and won't play against Black Hills. The other is running back Dan Shaw, a 6-0, 177-pound freshman who is the Plainsmen's leading rusher with 303 yards on 63 carries.

Shaw dislocated an elbow on the opening kickoff against Con cordia and is expected to be out two weeks. Mark Brown, a 5-7, 161-pound freshman from Trenton, N.J., will start in Shaw's spot and Wahoo freshman Gene Harris, a game as they were hampered by five turnovers, four interceptions and one fumble. Pat Lehigh started the scoring for the Spartans in the opening quarter with a 54-yard run. Ball said. "Lloyd, Jim and Mike (Washington) really had a good game on defense.

"Mike probably had a better game this week on offense, but all the kids showed improvement and that's what has made the team better every week." The win boosted Lincoln High's record to 2-3-1, while Southeast dropped to an identical 2-3-1. "We had chances to score and win," Knight coach Frank Solich said. "We dropped two passes that were well thrown with our receivers in the open and the passes would havf.1 been touchdowns if the bail would have been caught. "We also fumbled twice and lost the ball both times when we were driving," he continued. "We just couldn't come up with the big play in key situations."

The Links only allowed the only 40 points for 8 points per game. OSU is second to Mizzou in that department, having permitted 40 points in four contests. But the power running of OSU's fullback George Palmer, who has scored five touchdowns while averaging 4.6 yards per carry, and Missouri's Tommy Reamon, with a 4.7 average, may dominate the struggle.
