"It was easier than we thought it would be," Osborne said. "Kansas State has played well defensively, but we were more consistent on offense and played very well on defense." Two minutes of pounding by the Nebraska defense forced the Wildcats to punt to Nebraska again and the Corn-huskers covered 63 yards in five plays to pad the lead to 144 with 1 :49 ten in the first quarter. Carpenter, who scored two touchdowns, scored on a 31-yard triple option through the middle of the line.

"I'm Knrrv about all the injuries fa quarterback almost untouched" Defense in charge Nebraska's defense, which has allowed a total of two touchdowns and 38 yards rushing in its last three games, was in charge throughout the game. "We played solid defense," NU defensive coordinator Charlie McBride said. "Except for some positioning techniques like the younger linebackers not getting the under coverage on short passes we had a good performance from everybody we played and we played everybody we could." Nebraska's defense had three sacks; including two by Paul Brungardt, two fumble recoveries, a pass interception, 10 passes broken up and held the Wild cats to an average of 2.3 yards per play.

"It's getting better aU the time," McBride said. 3 jfflBH '71' 1 tt 4f iij GAIL FOLOASUNOAY JOURNAL-STAR day's game with Kansas State. "I love the fact we're getting so much action with all these teams throwing 40 or 50 times a game," said Legette, who picked off a K-State pass at the Nebraska 3-yard line and returned it 22 yards. "The pass defense is coming together, and it's great that the young guys are getting plenty of experience and quality time so well be able to help out when were needed." Hughes said the same thing about the offense. "We're building depth, and we're getting to where we don't drop off with the twos and threes," he said.
