Williarns' three-point play broke an 84-84 tie as the Hawkeyes, who rallied from a 14 point deficit in the final 13' i minutes, gained their first lead of the game. Wyoming enjoyed a 46-33 halftime lead and moved to a 64-50 edge with 13:23 left. Guard Fred Brown fired in eight points, Williams rifled in two and Omar Hazley added one to shave the Cowboy margin to 66-61 with just over 10 minutes left. Brown and Williams led all scorers with 29 and 28 tallies i ely as the Hawks gained their fifth win in nine starts.

From Page ID 'who's No. dilemma for the college football pollsters." A member of the voting Associated Press board, Doyle (who covered the Cotton bowl) wrote, "Nebraska is the likely wiimer in the final AP poll next week." Richard Dozer, Chicago Tribune analyst There will be no papal vote, of course. But while Nebraska was the better team in this game that went perhaps closer to form than any other contested before vast television throngs, the Huskers were not all that impressive.

Each team lost the ball on fumbles three times and there were two interceptions of passes by Nebraska one by Lousiana State. John Bibb, Nashville Ten-nessean, sports columnist, said, "I don't have a vote this year, but if I did I would have to vote for Nebraska. Nebraska beat one ol the best football teams I've seen this year." Bibb, related that he had spoken to Iowa State coach Johnny Majors at the conclusion of the regular season and Majors was "really outspoken" in his belief that Nebraska was the best team in the nation. They have the power to determine our destiny for the next few years because they're the control tower. It doesn't make sense to the young.

"Young people today tend to look at things and really get into them rather than just accept them. There's just some garbage we don't want to eat." Burmeister, who talks about repression often, says it's something he encounters frequently. "Like having to pay bail on a traffic ticket before you can plead your case, he said. "There's a law for everything. Maybe it's this paranoia I have of a monster government.

It seems like they can call on any law they want to. "People talk about how chaotic it would be if there was anarchy, but to me it's a state of mind. Things are pretty close to anarchy now, but its because of all this repression. I think there's a balance of nature and it pushes up a reaction. "Football is a good forum for a lot of things and gives a lot of chances for people to get into something in a positive way.

From my experience of playing on a team, I know if the team works for a common purpose amazing things can be done." Seattle W) University of Washington defensive back Bob Burmeister, who says he is part of a dissatisfied generation seeking a better way of life, sees football as "a microcosm of the makeup of society." A man runs the gamut of emotions as he spends his weekend watching football, the Evanston, native says. Burmeister calls that a good release but wonders if the guy who shouts to a tackier, "kill him," may really mean it. "When I think of America," the senior philosophy major says, "I think of football, because it's an outlet for violence, which is okay because it's controlled. "I can't advocate anything like the Army. That's killing, and it doesn't make any sense at all." At 6-foot-l and 191 pounds the blond Burmeister would like to play pro football to finance a youth camp he hopes to open one day, although he says his plans for the camp are hazy.

But Burmeister, who was named the Huskies' defensive player of the game three times and Pacific-8 Conference defensive player of the week once this season, says the camp is among his more important goals. The idea grew from his own Cont. From Page ID Monte Johnson, a 6-6, 225-pound sophomore from Bloomington, is waiting for Ed Periard to graduate in June so he can take over the middle guard chores and Janssen is the prime candidate for the other sport in the defensive front line. A year ago in the Sun Bowl, juniors Rogers and Murtaugh were voted top back and lineman respectively. In the Orange Bowl Friday night, it was junior Tagge and sophomore Harper, who won those honors.

When someone asked NU head coach Bob Devaney a few moments after the Orange Bowl triump how things looked for next year, he replied matter-of-factly, "We should be pretty good." Brash Jerry Murtaugh, who is a doer as well as a talker, leaves the linebacking scene, but Bob Terrio, who intercepted the LSU pass in the closing minute to assure the Husker win, will be back along with Pat Morell and Bruce Hauge, who will lead in the battle for Murtaugh's vacant spot. Three of the four defensive in the final quarter of backs return in Joe Blahak, Big Eight sophomore defensive back of the year, Bill Kosch and Jim Anderson. The lone graduate in the secondary is monster Dave Morock and Dave Mason, a converted offensive end, may move into that slot. Paul Rogers, who set all Nebraska and most Big Eight place kicking records in three years at Nebraska, will be missed and sophomore red shirt Darryl White, a New Jerseyite, will get first crack at that job. Punter Jeff Hughes, who turned out to be one of the best in the Big Eight, is only a junior.

For the second straight year, writers and broadcasters covering the Huskers in a bowl game have voted underclassmen as the outstanding back and linemen of the game.

He wants youth to have a chance to get closer to nature and away from what he sees as a mechanic hassle. He says he has found his own happy medium in Seattle which he describes as "a place where I can be by myself in natural surroundings and not far from a cultural center." Burmeister, who now has finished his college football career, says he feels alienated from older people and "would like to see kids get more of a chance than they're getting." He says he wants to feel the is going in a positive Western Edged By Grand Junction, Colo.
