The Lincoln Star from Lincoln, Nebraska • 13

5aturdoy, October 31, 1970 The Lincoln Star 13 ftates By HAL BROWN Star Sports Editor Boulder, Colo. A Colorado team with little left to play for except personal pride and a Nebraska team with plenty at stake will clash before a capacity crowd of 50,000 people at Folsom Field here today. And several thousand more will be tuned in via their TV sets for the 12:50 (MST) kickoff as the Big Red Machine from Nebraska tries to push its unbeaten streak to 15 straight its Big Eight-leading record to 4-0 and its season record to 7-0-1. In addition, the Husker gridders will be trying to present head coach Bob Devaney and his staff with their 110th career win and their 75th triumph as Cornhusker coaches. A victory would push, the Huskers to within one game of third place on the Nebraska list of unbeaten strings, tying the current team with Devancy's teams of 1963 and 1964 which went 16 games between losses.

But more important than keeping the unbeaten string alive, Nebraska needs a win to stay in front of four challengers, who have only one league loss each and are ready to move into a tie with the Huskers should the nation's fourth-ranked club slip. Kansas State, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma all are in position to move into a share of the Big Eight's top spot should NU lose. Defensively, the Huskers hold more of an edge in statistics than they do on offense, ranking first in rushing defense and scoring defense while holding down the No. 2 spot behind Kansas State in total defense. The Husker defense has been led by all-American lineback-lng candidate Jerry Murtaugh, the team leader In tackles with 81, end Willie Harper, tackle Larry Jacobson and middle guard Ed Periard.

The latter three have been effective at busting through offensive lines to make stops behind the line of scrimmage with Periard making nine stops for losses of 50 yards, Jacobson six for 49 and Harper, a sophomore, nine for 73 yards. Devaney holds a 7-1 edge over Colorado coach Eddie Crowder in previous meetings between the two schools with the only CU win coming at Lincoln in 1967 by a 21-10 count. A. The last Nebraska loss here was in 1960 when the Bulls scored a 19-6 victory. The 50,000 who will jam Folsom Field today will top the stadium record of 48,327 set when Nebraska visited here two years ago, a figure that also is the record for a sports event in the state.

Among the spectators will be 12,0000 Nebraskans and Ralphie, the CU buffalo mascot, who will be seeing the Huskers for the first time since that 1968 game. NU officials told Ralphie she had to stay home from last year's game in Lincoln. It was Colorado, which a year ago, made is possible for the Huskers to become co-champions of the Big Eight with Missouri by beating the Tigers here after Nebraska had lost to the Missour-ians at Columbia in the league opener. The Buffs already have ambushed one fourth-ranked team this season, defeating Penn State, 41-13, when the Nlttany Lions were No. 4 in the national polls.

While their records differ vastly with Colorado being only 3-3 for the year and 1-3 in the league compared with NU's 3-0 conference mark and 6-0-1 for the season, the two clubs are close in Big Eight statistics. Offensively, the Huskers and Buffs are 1-2 in rushing offense, total offense and scoring offense and rank 3-5 in passing. When Missouri held the Buffs to only 35 yards on the ground last week, it enabled the sk to move on top in rushing offense, but the lead is slim with NU averaging 236.4 yards per outing to a 233.2 average for CU. In total ofense, the NU lead is 422.4 to 374.7 and in scoring Nebraska is averaging 35.3 points to 28.2 for the Buffs. Putting the Huskers on top in the league in rushing have been I-backs Joe Orduna and Jeff Kinney, who have combined for 975 yards, Orunda with 536 and Kinney with 439.

Both those figures are better than CU's leading rusher, fullback Ward Walsh, who has gained 384 yards, but who has played one less game. In total offense, Nebraska has three in the top 12-quarterbacks Jerry Tagge and Van Brownson, plus Orduna while CU has only signal-caller Jimmy Bratten in the top 12. Bratten has rushed for 245 yards and passed for 539 for a 784 total while Tagge owns 59 yards rushing and 798 passing for 837; Brownson 97 rushing and 466 passing for 563 and Orduna 536 rushing and 14 passing for 550. It's in the passing department where the Huskers enjoy the biggest advantage offensively with Tagge completing 61.5. of his attempts and Brownson 64.7 while Bratten owns a percentage of only 40.4 and backup signal caller Paul Arendt has hit on only 40.0.

And Nebraska has two receivers, who rank ahead of the top CU pass grabber in league statistics. Johnny Rodgers has caught 22 for 412 yards while Guy Ingles has. grabbed 21 for 408 yards, both better than CU's Clifford Branch's 17 receptions for 295 yards. Fans will see two of the best punt returners in the country in Branch and Rodgers with Branch having returned six for 159 yards and one touchdown; Rodgers 18 for 303 yards and two TDs. Both teams also have quality place kickers in Colorado's Dave Haney and Nebraska's Paul Rodgers.

Haney has hit on 17 of 19 conversion attempts and eight of 10 field goal tries for 41 points while Rogers has made 30 of 31 extra point efforts and five of eight field goals for 45 points.

Shutout Leader By VIRGIL PARKER Prep Sports Writer Bellevue Coach Bill James' Bellevue Chieftains, the No. 2 rated Class A rated club in the state, methodically moved to a 33-7 football victory over Lincoln Northeast here Friday night.

Boland has Gaillard in training now at Belmont Park and expects him to make his American debut during the early days of the Hialeah meeting next January. Speedy Joe Shirey, Bellevue's All-State track standout, swept left end for 12 yards and skirted the right side for 25 more before Wilson blasted in from two yards out for his first tally. Bellevue covered 63 yards on its next possession on seven plays with quarterback Conrad Nelson tossing a 30-yard scoring London If there were any lingering doubts about the seriousness of British sportsman David Sandeman's announced ambition to become the first European ever to own the winner of the Kentucky Derby, forget them. The 40-year-old wine and spirits merchant whose Run for the Roses candidate failed him last year, is back for try No. 1.

Gaillard, a promising two-year-old Irish-bred winner in England, was purchased by Sandeman for an undisclosed amount in October and was Wayne Stands 14th In NAIA Division II List STAFF PHOTO BY RANDY HAMPTOM LOOKING FOR ROOM Westside's Steve Anderson, 41, takes the handoff from quarterback Doak Fowler, 11, and looks for running room as Randy Chick, 84, throws a block on LHS's Mike Kletchka.

A year and several hundreds of thousands of dollars later, Sandeman is once again pursuing his I 1 dream.

"If I've been asked once why I'm doing all this," he says, "I've been asked a hundred times. And I always have the same answer. I'm determined to win America's greatest race. Being of sound mind, I never thought it would be a simple task. I know the odds are great indeed, but then that's the very reason I'm in it." What about his first entry, the $100,000 Double Splash, who never even earned a ticket to the Derby last year? "He turned out to be more of a trickle," laughs Sandeman.

"Actually, his credentials were quite proper and for a while last winter, while he was at Hialeah in Florida, it looked as if he might have a very good chance. I know that my trainer, Bill Boland, an ex-Derby winner himself, was high on him. "But he became ill and, although he recovered rapidly enough, he never seemed to regain his two-year-old form. As I've said before, and Bill agrees, he might very well develop later on. I would hope so.

I sold him and he's now in Angel Penna's string and races in the silks of Sara Hall." How does his 1971 nominee for the Churchill Downs test shape up Sandeman was asked. "Well, Gaillard, comes highly recommended by Paddy Prendergast of Ireland, the leading trainer in the United Kingdom for many years, and considered by many to be one of the most knowledgeable racing men in ths world. He purchased Gaillard as a yearling for one of his patrons and trained him in his early races as a two-year-old. He's by Soderini, a stakes winner now standing at stud in Germany, out of the unraced mare, Gay Sylvia by a good sire, Sayajirao." Gaillard won the Enniskillen Stakes at Phoenix Park in England last July and ran an outstanding race when he finished fourth to Mill Reef, England's outstanding two-year-old, in the Gimcrack Stakes at York in August. The latest Sandeman color-bearer is considered a "stayer" (distance horse) and the mile and the quarter distance of the Derby should fumble.
