1 2E Oct. 29, 1978 Lincoln, Sunday Journal and Star Bruised Cornhuskers respect tough Cowboys guess we had to relearn it today. "We've been flying up on Cloud Nine, here lately and maybe we did get to thinking we were a little unstoppable. Now, we know we're not. Oklahoma State is not the type to fold under and give in, but we're not either.

"I'm not saying we were at a low ebb. Evidently, we just weren't as mentally ready and physically prepared to pay the price we have been paying. It's time to get more aggressive, work harder and suck it up even more." Fellow captain Andrews agreed. "This," he said, "is really good for the team, maybe a blessing in disguise. We haven't had to play the whole game since 'Alabama.

We haven't had a game where we had to fight all the way. Today it was 60 minutes of football and even though it wasn't always pretty, we did hang in there and we did win. that's all that really counts." hundred times in practice and It shows. They'll just belt you right out of there." The 'Pokes belted Nebraska out there 323 yards worth Saturday, getting much of it in huge chunks on quick pops up the middle. "They were giving our linemen a lot of false reads," Pillen said.

"They took our strength -being able to read and turned it into our weakness. I guarantee they're a well-coached team and I'm just glad we had our kicking game today or we would have been looking at things from the other side up." Sometimes, Nebraska appeared about as sharp as a seven-day-old pencil. But most of Nebraska's players preferred to give OSU the large share of the credit while vowing to avoid any re-runs in the future. "Today," Sorley said, "was a good lesson for all of us. We've had fair warning that any team in the Big Eight can beat you at any time, but I braska's locker room.

"I've never felt this sore in my life and I know it's not because I'm slowing down and getting old," Sorley said. "I ache all over. I got stuck and I got blasted. Personally, I thought Oklahoma State's defense was more physical than Alabama's." Andrews, who told Sorley "Now you know how it feels," thought OSU's offense was equally physical. "They always hit as hard as anyone," Nebraska's hardest hitter and All-Americaii defensive end candidate observed.

"Not only that," he said, "they never quit. That's the way they coach 'em down there and how can I say it? -1 guess I just have the utmost respect for them. "I've always respected Oklahoma State and the way they execute. They say they never run a play in a game unless they've run it at least a By Randy York Staff Sports Writer Quarterback Tom Sorley had a series of welts on his back. George Andrews, his teammate and fellow captain, laughed at the sight and decided to rub it in a little.

Jim Pillen sat on a training table, nursing a deep thigh bruise. He laughed, too, rubbing it in a little to himself. "What a bunch of tough cowboys," Pillen said. "They're a helluva well-coached team and when things get nasty, I'd like to have them on my side in a barroom brawl. a bunch of tough cowboys." Nebraska players, to a man, gave Oklahoma state nothing but respect Saturday after surviving what, at times, looked like a free-for-all tag team wrestling match.

No one threw any chairs, but everyone gave each other his best shot. And it showed in Ne Cornhusker quotes By Wayne Gonyea and Mike Babcock -l-back I. M. Hipp On being plagued with fumbles against OSU: "I lust can ex-Plain It. I don't know what It was, It wasn't that thev were hitting so hard.

If was a frustrating experience for me. "I'm sure it is nothing for me to really worry about. It isn anything mental, I lust don't know. "But I'm not going to let it bother me. It might bother me today, but tomorrow I will have forgotten about it.

If I'm expecting to help the team win I lust can't let this bother me. I lust going to try to concentrate on covering the ball up more instead of leaving it open. That's the last fumble for me." On Oklahoma State's defense: "They were sticking their heads on the ball side instead of making a clean hit, and they did a pretty good iob. All week the coaches were telling us they were physical." Defensive tackle Rod Horn On OSU's aggressive offense: "The coaches told us they would be tough. We were prepared for everything they threw ot us.

They lust came out and ran well, you can't take anything away from them. "But vou can't toke anything oway from our defense either. Our defense has a lot of pride. The key is hustle. We knew we were going to stop them.

We hustled and we won and that the key. When you make mistakes yog hove to bounce back off them ond hustle a little harder." On teammate Derrle Nelson's game saving tackle of OSU Taylor at the Nebraska 20 yard line: "We were thinking thlrd-and-long and a pass, but thev come out with thot screen pass. He would have gone all the way, but Nelson caught him. He even had to go around an OSU guy to get him, but he hustled and he got him. That's what I mean about hustle." Linebacker Lee Kunz On Nebraska's overall defensive play: At times I thought we played well ond then other times I was unhappy with It (the defense).

We mode mistakes and we will have to work on them this "Oklahoma State had some pretty good offensive linemen. Thev had a good balanced ball club, and they ore lot better than people give them credit for. They ran a lot of isolation plays. That's where both backs will come to you and then the linebacker's responsibility Is to turn them Inside and the other one can come on and make the play. That was pretty much their favorite play of the day." On NU's defensive play after OSU's long scoring drive to open the second half: "We really felt we had to stop them.

They had a possible two-point conversion thot could tie us ond the defense was trying to prepare themselves for it. The defense came bock in the second half and we were a little more intense. But it got pretty tense there at the end. "This year's defense is better than last year's. We have adopted to the system and have experienced players back.

Every game we are building a little bit more momentum and our confidence builds with every game as the season progresses."

Oklahoma Stae 7 0 7 0 14 Nebraska 0 19 3 0 22 time outs and running out of time Todd kicked the field goal which gave the Huskers their 19-7 halftime edge.

But Oklahoma State wasn't ready to play give up. The Cowboys marched 80 yards with the kickoff to open the second half and got back in the ball game at 19-14. Nebraska's tackling during that drive left something to be desired. "I think our players played hard," Van Zandt felt, however. "The better the running backs the worse the tackling looks.

You've got to give those dudes from Oklahoma State some credit. They certainly weren't the same team that Wichita State beat earlier in the season." It was nail-biting time from then until the end of the game for the Big Red partisans. An 18-yard OSU punt late in the third quarter led to Todd's third field goal he also had three last week against Colorado and now has eight on the season. That three-pointer produced the final score. The Huskers still had to hang on through the final 15 minutes of play.

The Nebraska offense managed just one first down during the entire last quarter. Following Hipp's last fumble came Oklahoma State's spectacular screen pass, Nelson's save and Nebraska last-minute survival. "Good teams have got to win this kind too," NU linebacker coach John Melton observed. "Even the best team can't be sharp every week. They've got to rise to the occasion and win the close ones.

I'm glad we did and I'm also glad nobody was taking my blood pressure during that screen pass. I don't want to go through that kind of a finish again." But as the record book shows, it wouldn't have been a typical Nebraska-Oklahoma State game without it. the difference in this game." The second Todd field goal, with 18 seconds left in the half, sent murmurs through the stands. The Huskers had the ball at the OSU 12-yardline. It was just second down, "We were out of time outs," Osborne explained later.

"We had enough bad experiences with that situation last year. If we try a pass and it's completed but doesn't result in a touchdown, or if the quarterback gets sacked, then we don't even get the chance for the field goal and wind up with nothing out of the drive." Nebraska took the opening kickoff and appeared in command. Four first downs netted 66 yards. The Huskers were at the OSU 14. Then Hipp couldn't find the handle on a pitchout and the Cowboys recovered.

"If we had taken good care of the ball we might have been able to put them away early," Osborne lamented. "Instead, we gave them enough chances to keep encouraging them." The Cowboys certainly responded to their first break. OSU sustained an 80-yard march in 11 plays to take a 7-0 lead with 5:44 remaining in the first quarter. A pair of 19-yard passes from Burk to light end Steve Stephens and flankerback Ron Ingram highlighted the drive. Late in the first quarter, the kicking game came into play.

Frank Lockett returned an OSU punt 55 yards before nicking the sideline chalk mark. A lot of Husker fans, thinking he had gone all the way, prematurely released their red balloons. The drive stalled, but on the third play of the second quarter Todd hit his first fielder a 23-yarder to cut the deficit to 7-3. OSU moved to the Nebraska 44 with the ensuing kickoff, but then was forced to punt. Defensive end L.C.

Cole roared in to block the punt and tackle Rod Horn recovered at the Cowboys' 48. Nebraska might have been in even better position, but the blocked punt banged off the chest of referee Foley, keeping it from going deep into OSU territory. It was one of those freak happenings for which there is no recourse. Husker I-back Richard Berns showed great acceleration as he burst up the1 middle for 18 yards and quarterback Tom Sorley soon capped the nine-play drive with a one-yard sneak for a touchdown with 7:28 left in the first Todd's PAT gave the Huskers a 10-7 lead, Nebraska came right back with another TD on its next possession. Kenny Brown returned an OSU punt 21 yards to the OSU 40 to get things started.

Seven plays later, sparked by a 13-yard pass from Sorley to split end Tim Smith, Sorley and Berns teamed up on a 20-yard TD pass play with 2:59 remaining before intermission. Sorley mishandled an off-tar-gel snap which messed up the extra point attempt, leaving the score 16-7. Three plays after the next kickoff, NU linebacker Lee Kunz recovered an errant OSU pitchout and six plays later out of Georgia nudges past Kentucky Defensive End Lawrence Cole On his block of an OSU punt at the OSU 48 in the second quarter which led to Nebraska's first touchdown: "At first I wos going to run off the field. But they hadn't changed anything so we thought they were going to fake it, so coach Van Zandt left the first team in there. We ran a double bingo and put on the rush.

I iust rushed in there and the end apparently didn't try to block me. I was so far in there and he still hadn't kicked It yet, and I blocked with my whole body. It hit me in the stomach. "I was looking around for It. I wonted to pick it up and run It back.

There were three of us coming in and Horn fell on the ball for us." Linebacker Bruce Dunning "Oklahoma State has got probably one of the most physical offenses we have faced. They came out and plaved four quarters of football, ond they hit on every play. I thought we ployed fairly well today, but you knew you have to give credit to OSU. They always play us tough and we nev er have a run-away game with them. It was lust as tough as we expected.

"We didn't overlook them. We practiced iust as hard for them as any team down the line. We knew they were good. But we'll have to play better football though than we did today." On Nelson's saving tackle of OSU's Taylor at the NU 20: "We were in a prevent defense. I talked with coach Van Zandt and he told me to get into a prevent.

I told the secondary to get into their zone. But we lust didn't play It well. We were very fortunate they didn't break that all the way. "Derrie (Nelson) was back in the fold and had hustled the whole way down and drove him out of bounds. That was the key play of the game." On OSU's final pass attempt into the end zone: "We had a blitz called.

We came with a lot of people. Kunz and I both blitzed, but I got cut down. It looked like they had a guy open and he iust overthrew him. I hope our rush forced the bod throw." On Oklahoma State: "People don't give them enough credit after they lost their first five games. You either get worse or you get better, and Oklahoma State has gotten better every game." Guard Barney Cotton "I'll tell you what, Oklahoma State Is the best 2-6 team in the country I guarantee you that." On his recovery of an Andra Franklin fumble at the OSU three-yard line, preceding Nebraska's first touchdown: "We ran a trap, but we ran it a little differently with the guard pulling on the backside to open up bigger hole.

The ball popped out; I was pulling out, and there it was. I lust fell on it." On the OSU defense: "They played a 4-3, but they stacked It on the outside. That meant the linebacker could go either inside or outside, ond It messed up our pitch plays. It always seemed like they had an extra man we weren't getting to. The" front side blocking looked good, but the linebackers and defensive backs kept coming in from the back side." On the absence of John Corker from the Cowboy defense: "The only time I know he was in there, we were moving the ball on them, so I can't really consider him a factor." Punter-receiver Tim Smith "Oklahoma State never gave up; Colorado did.

The key was, they (Cowboys) didn't quit. They did it on their own by firing themselves up on that first drive in the second half." On Billy Todd's kicking "He really didn't have many field goals early In the season because we had good field position a lot. But when you have to go 80 yards, you're going to stall some, ond we went 60-70 yards before he kicked some of those today. Good field position, that was a key." On his punting against OSU "I was iust fortunate to get tight spirals into the wind. I didn't do anything differently; I iust hit the ball better than I have been.

When you're kicking into the wind, any wobble will duck it."

(UPI) -Rex Robinson booted a 29-yard field goal with eight seconds remaining to play Saturday night to give 13th-ranked Georgia a come-from-behind 17-16 Southeastern Conference victory over Kentucky. Kentucky's field goal kicker, Tommy Griggs, missed a 42-yard attempt with 4:02 left in the game, which was the last time the Wildcats had their hands on the ball. Kentucky led 16-0 with 9:12 to go in the third quarter when Freddie Williams dove over from the 1 and Griggs kicked the point after. From then on, it was all downhill for the Wildcats, who fell to 2-4-1 overall and 1-2 in SEC play.

He was so wide open, I was lust trying to get it there, but got a little too much on it.

He (Campbell) wos running a post and the linebacker ran through. I iust kept on running, trying to scramble and keep the ball alive. We were going for a touchdown all the way." On OSU's offense: "The trap to the halfback was more successful than in the past, but Nebraska strung out our option. It wos hard to get the seam. It looked like we had things-going our way on that first drive.

The line did a heck of a job." On Nebraska: "They have a rea.ly good offensive team. You iust have to try and keep the ball away from them. I thought that we could throw on them. A couple of other teams had some success and we thought we could do the same. Their secondary did hit hard." Rick Antle, OSU linebacker On OSU't defense: "Any time you lose John Corker It's got to hurt, but I thought Ricky Young (Corker's replacement) and the other guys played well.

You can't ask for more than that. They never did drive on us real well. I'm pretty proud of our defense. It's sad that we lost when we played so well." Ricky Young, OSU linebacker On replacing Corker: "I was really nervous. The first touchdown after John went out was my fault.

Ivery, limited to only 29 yards in the first half when the Yellow Jackets fell behind 10-3, wound up with 146 yards to give him a total of 944 in eight games, breaking the single-season school record of 900 yards he set last year.

His two touchdowns, a 1-yard plunge late in the third period and a 4-yard, go-ahead tally with 5:23 left in the game, gave him a career total of 22 touchdowns, a Georgia Tech record. The underdog Florida Gators, 2-4, completely dominated first half play. But although they were inside the Georgia Tech 10-yard line three times, they only scored 10 points. Those points came early in the second period on a 29-yard field goal by Berj Yepremian and a 2-yard run by sophomore Perry Williams and Yepremian's extra point.
