Kentucky, 7-4 last season in the Southeast Conference, and winner of the Peach Bowl, set up Baylor's first touchdown when Rod Stewart fumbled a pass reception at the Wildcats' 15-yard line. The ball bounced to the Kentucky 3 before being recovered by the Bears' Ron Burns. After three unsuccessful plunges, Blair dove over from the lyard line and Robert Bledsoe's extra point gave Baylor a 7-0 lead.

Kentucky gave Baylor an opportunity in the third quarter for its second touchdown when punter Kevin Kelly allowed the snap to go through his hands and was forced to down the ball on the Kentucky 12. Bickham, the the Bears' regular quarterback, who was not expected to play because of a shoulder injury and a dislocated finger on his passing hand, moved the ball to the Si-yard line on two option runs. Then he sprinted around left end for the touchdown.

Garcia tossed an outlet pass to I.M. Hipp, who bore a lot of the brunt of the Washington State loss after fumbling on the only play he saw action. Hipp more than redeemed himself.

He grabbed the pass one handed, left his tearaway jersey in the hands of a would-be 'Bama tackier and rambled 53 yards. The very next play, Hipp picked up 13 more and a first down at the Crimson Tide 13. Monte Anthony, making his first appearance of the year, banged down the middle for nine more, and two plays later Herns scored from two yards out. But, with just 10 seconds left in the half. Alabama drove close enough for a field goal and a 17-17 intermission standoff.

Karly in the second half, NU linebacker Lee Kunz picked off a Rutledge pass. It took the Huskers just two plays a 22-yard ramble by Berns and a 17-yard scamper by Craig to cover the necessary distance and a 24-17 lead. Alabama came back early in the final frame to produce the last tie at 24-24 setting the stage for Nebraska's drive to victory. The points scored by Nebraska where the most recorded against an Alabama team since the Huskers won the Orange Howl meeting, M-ti The results of the weekend will surely scramble the national rankings. In addition to Alabama and Notre Dame, top ten rated Houston also lost.

Washington State pulled out a close win Over Michigan State, 23-21. which will earn the Cougars a spot in the top twenty tor the first time in the school's history. "We just wanted to get Warren (ex-NU aide Warren Powers and new Washington State head coach i off to a good start in his career." Osborne joked of last week's game. "We wanted to let him be the Coach of the Week, then come back and beat Alabama." Osborne admits to one drawback of coaching. You don't get to savor victory very long.

"We'll enjoy this for a couple of hours," lie observed. "Before the night is over, we'll start working and worrying about Baylor." Baylor beat Kentucky Saturday. 21-6. gained in the opener against WSU. The play looked like a sweep around right end.

Suddenly Berns stopped and lofted a pass to wingback Curtis Craig over the middle. The gain covered 36 yards. The very next play produced even more of a flea-flicker. Against Washington State, the Huskers had given the ball to Berns on a sweep left. But he lateraled back to split end Smith for an end around.

It looked like the same play again. But this time Smith tossed a second lateral back to Sorley who then threw a forward pass down-field to tight end Ken Spaeth for an 11-yard gain. Sorley was smashed just after he got the throw away, injurying the right shoulder he hurt against Washington State. In came Garcia, who had been rudely treated by Big Red tans in the opener lor what they thought had been a subpar performance. When the Huskers laced fourth-and-three at the Alabama seven and Todd on the field for an apparent field goal try Garcia took the snap, rolled to his right.

Although under heavy pressure from the 'Bama defensive line, Garcia threaded the needle with a pinpoint pass to Berns at the goal line. Berns, though well covered by two defenders, took the pass away from both of them and tumbled into the end zone and a 10-7 Nebraska lead. "A lot of people seemingly gave up on Randy last week," Osborne observed. "Personally, I think it was inexcusable the way they booed him. He led the team right down the field (against WSU) and many of the bad things that happened, he wasn't even involved in.

He did a lot of good things today." Osborne said he was planning to play both quarterbacks against Alabama anyway. "I hope to use them both throughout the season," the Cornhusker coach added. "I thought we'd lost Sorley for the game when he was hurt. But he was throwing on the sidelines during the second half. He'll be sore tommorrow.

But I hope he'll be able to practice and throw the ball this next week." Nebraska's 10-7 lead didn't last long. Alabama took the next kickoff and drove to a touchdown and a 14-10 advantage.

But the shoulder is okay now. The doctors told me it's just something I'm going to have to get used to. It's going to pop in and out of place sometimes." Safety Larry Valasek On the Nebraska defense "We had a complete defensive effort One time the backs would make the quarterback look twice because the receivers were covered and another time the defensive backs had more time because the pass rush was so much improved.

Every audible I called tor the secondary worked because we played together. There wasn't anything that really didn't tit into the game plan that coach Van Zandt designed."

Cornerback Tim Fischer On his first start as a Husker replacing injured Rene Anderson "It was scary from the time I found out I was going to start until the first play. I'm glad I didn't have to take Newsomo (Tide receiver Ozzie) on vor often. I was confident of my assignments I was just in question of my abilities.

I was having some trouble with their options." Monster Jim Pillen On his two interceptions late in the game "They were a big thrill. They worked just like we had practiced. Everything was really routine today except that wo were against a wishbone. We felt if we could stop Johnny Davis (Alabama fullback) inside then we could cover the receivers and shut off their scoring. In the first half we felt we could handle Alabama man-to-man if we gave the short pass.

Then in the second half the pass rush got really hot and we shot the corncrbacks up to take away the outside pass What can I say7 It worked."

First, Scott Arnett fired a lOyard touchdown pass to Dave Harangody. That score was set up by Joe Norman who recovered a fumble by Charles Alexander on the Indiana 12. Alexander, who gained 116 yards in 24 rushes, scored two of LSU's three touchdowns on one-yard runs in the first and third periods to give the Tigers a 21-10 lead.

But Indiana was in command in the final period and stopped the Tigers' last bid with just 25 seconds left to play when two passes by Steve Ensminger failed. Darrick Burnett, who gained 131 yards in 22 attempts, scored Indiana's first touchdown on a three-yard run in the second period, climaxing an 80-yard drive. Then Arnett's passes slowly turned the tide for the Hoosiers Keith Calvin, Arnett's principal receiver, grabbed seven passes for 141 yards and Arnett finished with 11 completions in 18 attempts for 149 yards. He had one throw intercepted to end the first half. Ensminger scored LSU's second touchdown with just 13 seconds left in the first half on a three-yard run for a 14-10 halftime lead.
