1 4 1 By Virgil Parker Sports Editor After Nebraska destroyed Iowa State 49-0 at Memorial Stadium Saturday, Big Red fans weren't waving their index fingers in the air, hollering, "We're No. 1." A strong north wind and sub-freezing temperatures made it too cold to take their hands out of their pockets. Also, most of the 75,920 who bought tickets had already gone home. In fact, a lot of them didnt show up in the first place. But Nebraska, already ranked No.

2 behind Penn State (a 31-10 winner over Cincinnati) got an assist from Georgia that almost assures the Cornhuskers will also be in the runnerup spot in the AP poll next week. Florida, unranked by UPI because it is on probation, was No. 1 according to AP. Georgia's 24-3 win over the Gators took care of that With two more Big Eight Conference tests against Kansas and fast-improving Oklahoma just ahead, do any of the Nebraska players dare dream of a Penn State-Nebraska matchup in the Orange Bowl for the national championship? "Such a thought is what they call 'fantasy'," defensive tackle Jim Skow answered. "It's like wanting to go out with a pretty girl you've never met before.

You can think about it, but you cant think about it too much or it will consume your mind." Skow, who tied one career defensive record and topped another Saturday, added, "I'd love to play Penn State in the Orange BowL But we have to look at the Big Eight right now." Kansas next test Skow said Kansas is No. 1 in his thoughts. "I wouldn't look past Kansas," Skow said. "They like to mix it up. That game will be a real barnburner.

That's when well be shown the mistakes we made on film." Skow isnt likely to come under much criticism. One one occasion he sacked Iowa State quarterback Alex Espinoza for an 8-yard loss.

1 about a national championship. The only ushers have their version of Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside By Mike Babcock But "it doesnt bother me," he said. Til get that next week." The Grand Island senior doesn't seem to be bothered by too many things like tacklers, for example i Against Iowa State, Rathman carried 10 times for 97 yards to complement a 114-yard rushing effort by DuBose, who left Memorial Stadium Saturday with his second consecutive season.

-v He now has 1,006 yards. 'C Aside from the two by DuBose, Nebraska has had only nine seasons, and only two other Cornhuskers have put them together back-to-back. Mike Rozier did it in 1982 and 1983, Jarvis Red-wine in 1979 and 1980. Obviously, DuBose is running in some fast company. me.

I just read his block and do what I have to do." Solich wasnt saying the DuBose-Rathman combination is the best in the country. "I havent seen that many other combinations," he said. "But I don't know that there's any I would trade them for. They both can run inside and outside, and they Ye tough kids. "The normal bumps and bruises wont keep themoutofaballgame." I DuBose left Saturday's game for one play, after being poked in the eye, then returned to score his touchdown.

"They're trying to mess up my face," DuBose said with a smile. In last week's game with Kansas State, be suffered a cut lip. "I guess I'm going to have to get a cage face mask," said DuBose. The junior from Uncasville, Conn, also became the 10th Cornhusker to rush for 2,000 yards in a career Saturday. Rushing for that kind of yardage is "tough in i our system because we use so many backs," said Solich.

Nebraska's running attack has the perfect balance this season, Mr. Outside and Mr. Inside. With DuBose and Rathman, however, it's difficult to say exactly which one is Mr. Outside and which one is Mr.

Inside! Rathman has the strength to go inside and' enough speed to run outside. He showed that on a 32-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter. "There arent too many fullbacks, after they penetrate and get about two or three steps past the line of scrimmage, who you feel like are going to go all the way," Solich said. "But Tom's chances of making that one go all the way were really good." DuBose, of course, has the speed to make the big play, but he also has the power to go inside. "People think because I only weigh 190 pounds, I cant run inside," said DuBose.

"I think? surprise 'cm." According to DuBose, he and Rathman may be the best one-two, I-back-fullback combination in the country. "I call Rathman, 'Matt DuBose said. Suhey is the, Chicago Bears' fullback and a running mate to Walter Payton, DuBose's childhood favorite. Rathman also carries the nickname "Bone," as in Basil Rathbone. 'Bone' might go up there and take Suhey's job next year," said DuBose.

"Any time 1 go in the hole behind Tom Rathman, I have no fear of him coming back out at I-back Doug DuBose wanted one more series for the first-team backfield so Tom Rathman could have an opportunity to break Nebraska's single-season rushing record for a fullback. -Rathman needs 25 yards. Dick Davis set the record, 717 rushing yards, in 1957. Frank Solich, the offensive backs coach tor the Nebraska football team, told DuBose he'd think about putting Rathman back in the game. Rathman cast a deciding vote.

"Let the other guys play," he said. On the first snap, Ken Kaelin, Rathman's replacement, went through a hole and rambled 72 yards, late in the third quarter of Nebraska's 494 victory over Iowa State Saturday afternoon. One more carry, and Rathman could have broken the record. Georgia manhandles top-ranked Florida ,1 Wis i APUP1 Next game 17 Florida (6-1-1) lost to Georgia 24-3 Kentucky 27 1. Penn State (0)def.

"I thought that we had a chance to win, but never did I think that we'd win by such a large margin," Dooley said Saturday after his 17th-ranked Georgia Bulldogs ended the nation's, longest college football unbeaten string at 18 games with a 24-3 victory over No. 1-ranked Florida at Jacksonville, Fla. "I never dreamed that we would make the long plays, nor that we could hold Florida to three points," Dooley added. "All we wanted was for our defense to minimize Florida's big-play capability. Our defense did a superb job." Georgia's big plays came from a pair of freshman running backs touchdown sprints of 76 and 32 yards by Keith Henderson in the first half and an 89-yard dash by Tim Worley that sealed the win in the final quarter.

And, although it yielded 408 yards passing to the Gators, a swarming Georgia defense never allowed Florida any offensive continuity while sacking quarterback Kerwin Bell five times and keeping him under constant pressure. Dooley figured Florida was ripe for an upset when the Gators climbed to the top of The Associated Press poll for the first time after last week's victory over then-sixth-ranked Auburn (the Gators are on NCAA probation and ineligible for the United Press International poll). "Florida was hi the difficult position of winning big last week, being ranked No. 1 by AP and having to play a big rival the next week," Dooley said. Besides ending Florida's unbeaten streak, the Georgia victory marked the first setback for Galen HaH, now 15-1-1 since becoming the Gators' coach three See SEC on page 40 S' UPt TEL PHOTO Georgia's Keith Henderson breaks free for his second touchdown.

His job description, after two typewritten pages of detailed responsibilities, concludes with the statement "and any other duties as assigned by the director." Performing in a dual capacity with responsibil-, ities in a number of different areas is nothing new to Papik, For the 16 years prior to 1971, he was the director of athletics, plus the bead football coach and head track coach, at Doane College. After a year as Doane's admissions director, he came to Nebraska in the same capacity.

"I was not in the market for a new job," Papik said. "I was content and satisfied In my role as admissions director. But I admit that when this came up, I was both surprised and flattered. And I'm also enthused." Papik said his desire and thatof Athletic Di- rector Bob Devaney will be to centralize several areas for male and female athletes; to create an overall intercollegiate department rather than having separate men's and women's programs, as have existed in the past. "Academic counseling is one of those Papik said, "We want to bring them together to wqrktogether.
