"I thought Sundberg played very well," Osborne said of his quarterback who completed eight of 10 aerials for 134 yards 'and two touchdowns. "And, the offensive Une did a good job. I also thought the defense did a good job, except for the one play where I got involved." Blitz called Osborne said the only play "where I got my nose in the business of the came when he called for a blitz on what turned out to be a 63-yard Minnesota touchdown pass play in the fourth quarter. "They picked up the blitz and it left our linebacker trying to cover their fullback all the way down the field." Prior to that, however, Scott Living-, ston had kicked a 22-yard field goal and Sundberg had connected with wingback Jim Thompson on a 7-yard touchdown toss to make it 31-0.

"We didn't do a good job of hanging' onto the ball again," Osborne admitted. "We cant continue to have three or four earjy turnovers. Not against the kind of -teams well be playing down the road In these first two games we've had the bet ter athletes against teams with people who played hard.

But well have to take better care of the football against UCLA (next week's opponent). They've Graeber- W1P Despite last season's 84-13 victory over in Minneapolis, Graeber said Nebraska was emotionally ready for Saturday's game. The Corn-huskers didnt take Minnesota lightly. They prepared welL "Our scout learn gave 'us an excellent picture," said who lined up against scout squad center Jack Noel during the week's practices. "I was more beat up after practice Tuesday and Wednesday than I was The practices were tougher." Graeber tried to approach Minnesota the way he would any other opponent "You can't get too hyper, or you play out of control That goes for just about all of the guys, he said.

"Coach Osborne even, stresses the tact that you don't worry about the play before or the one' after. You just concentrate on the play now." According to Nebraska offensive guard Harry Grimminger, it wouldn't have been Graeber's style to play with more emotion against Minnesota. played hard "I'm sure Ken was playing as hard as he always does," Grimminger "And I'm sure it didn't make any dif-" ference it was against a team that gave him some bad breaks." It would have made a difference only if we had played badly or tost Then it would have hurt more," said Graeber. As it was, Graeber felt good when he arrived in (he South Stadium interview UCLA From pffgelP Nebraska Athletic Director Bob Deva-ney said Saturday. "But, when that stay didnt come through, we decided to go Devaney said three factors the decision.

"We felt having the game on TV was in the best Interest of college' football in general Then, there are the many Nebraska fans who cant make the trip but would like to see the game. Also, there was a of a law suit by UCLA or CBS i we refused." i Money was not a factor, Devaney said. "Well get about $88,000 and every team in the Big Eight will get half that amount So, we're helping out everybody in the Devaney admitted the CFA and ABC brass were not happy wjth the decision. "They didnt think we should violate the crossover rule," he said, referring to a clause in the CFA-ABC contract which prevents a CFA team, from playing against a Pac-10 or Big, Ten team on CBS. "But we asked ABC if they would cover us In case of a lawsuit and they said, "We also asked ABC if they would bid WAC Wyoming i surprises Air Force From News Wires Freshman quarterback Scott Runyan threw for a pair of fourth-quarter touchdown passes Saturday as Wyoming came from behind to upset Air Force 26-20.

Runyan gave Wyoming its first lead, 19-14, with an 88-yard strike to junior Allyn Griffin, then sealed the victory with a disputed 12-yard strike to senior Jay Novacek. Air Force claimed Nova-cek trapped the ball in the end zone. The 5-foot-9-inch redshirt freshman from Artesia, N.M., engineered all three Wyoming touchdown drives as the Cowboys on the battle of the wishbones for the second year in a row. In other games involving WAC schools, Brigham Young blasted Tulsa 38-15, Colorado State stopped Hawaii 10-3, Tennessee beat Utah 27-21 and New Mexico blanked West Texas State 27-0. Texas-El Paso was at San Diego State inalategame.

At Laramie, Air Force scored the first time it had the ball in both halves, on a 8-yard run by starting terback Brian Knorr and a 4-yard run by backup Bart Weiss. But in between, the Falcons sputtered and hurt themselves with mistakes and penalties before managing a 'consolation touchdown on Knorf 12-yard touchdown pass td wide receiver Eric Phaftis as time ran out. Brigham Young 38, Tulsa 15 'J At Provo, Utah, quarterback Robbie Bosco passed for one touchdown and ran for another and linebacker Mar Allen picked off two passes. BYU's defense repeatedly negated Tulsa drives throughout the game, holding the Golden Hurricane to three field goals by Jason Staurovsky until the fourth quarter when quarterback Steve Gage flipped a 4-yard pass to Ron Kel-ley. The Cougars' defense, which has given up five touchdowns in its three games, stopped Tulsa drives in the first half five times within the 20-yard line.

And Allen ended one Golden Hurricane threat by intercepting a Gage pass in the end zone. In the second quarter, an interception by Alien at BYU's 41 set up a 1-yard TD-run by Lakei Heimuli. Tulsa had moved the ball freely until it penetrated the BYU 20 in the first half and dominated time of posession, 20:26 to 9:34. BYU, however, made the most of its time and led 21-6 at halftone Colorado St. 10, Hawaii 3 At FLtollins, Colo, sophomore running back Steve Bartalo rushed for 170 yards and a fourth-quarter touchdown, sparking Colorado State to a victory over Hawaii.

Bartalo dived over the top from the 1-yard line for the clinching score with 12:10 remaining, capping a nine-play, 67-yard drive. Bartalo's 33-yard run to the Hawaii 16 highlighted the drive. The CSU which bottled up Hawaii's running game and kept quarterback Raphel Cherry in check all day, subsequently thwarted three Hawaii scoring chances to preserve the victory. out the scoring with an 11-yard TD run with 5:58 left in the game. "I thought Minnesota played a good game," Osborne said.

"They certainly played hard all the way! I thought there was too much controversy over last year's score (an 84-13 Nebraska were restricted to just 60 players last year. And they were all good. This time we had some people to put in there to slow things down. In the last seven or eight minutes we were playing a lot of scout squad players, and a some freshman, including quite a number who played at Iowa State on Friday." The final stats were stark evidence of Nebraska's superiority. The Huskers piled up 568 yards in total offense 9 more than against Wyoming tq 195 "for Minnesota.

"We blew some scoring chances, how-, ever," Osborne said. "We had 350 yards at halftime, which should produce more than 21 points." i NU tackle Behning suffers ankle sprain Nebraska football team came away from Saturday's 38-7 victory over Minnesota with a minimum of injuries, according to NU head trainer and physical therapist George Sullivan. Offensive tackle Mark Behning suffered a sprained right ankle. Wingback Shane Swanson was bothered by muscle spasms in his back, and split end Scott Kimball had a bruised thigh. Tight end Todd Frain showed up in the training room with a bruised knee.

"He's the silent type, but I think he liked it," Reeves said. "I felt good for Ken." Graeber's Immediate plans Tor the ball didnt include putting it in a trophy case or setting in on a fireplace "It means a lot to me," he said. "But I dont have a football, and I like to play catch, so IH probably play catch with it "Maybe Coach Osborne gave me the ball so I'd get a chance to touch it and see what a football feels like." on the game (since the judge's ruling' opened up that possibility).

If they wanted to get out and sell our game I would think they could. It's going to be No. 1 versus No. 5 or 6. But instead, this coming Saturday ABC is going to show a fight between a couple of guys whose names I don't even recognize and I follow boxing closely.

How they came up with the idea that a couple of fighters are more interesting to the public than our game, I dont understand." Devaney said he does not expect any punitive action against Nebraska by either ABC or the CFA. "We stayed with our committment to them as long as we could. I don't think our decision will hurt our future relations with ABC," he said. Devaney said he didn't want every Nebraska game on TV. "It would be wrong to saturate the airways with college footbalL There will be some of our games that shouldn't be on for the good of our overall prognri.

But, when you have an important game like this one "between us and UCLA, it should be on." The telecast of the NIMJCLA game will start at 2:30 p.m, Lincoln time.
