98 Lee Jones DT 6-1 230 So. 99 Ken Shead MG 5-11 235 Sr. QUARTERBACK Take your pick, McCathorn Clayton or Ronnie Williams. The key to the game likely will be how each handles the pressure applied by an aggressive defense. RUNNING BACKS Oklahoma State's Thurman Thomas ranks second in the nation in rushing.

Nebraska, which has more depth, ranks first as a team In rushing offense. The Comhuskers have an edge slightly. RECEIVERS The Cowboys have big-play receivers in Bobby Riley and Hart Lee Dykes and a steady tight end in J.R. Dillard. The question is, will Williams have time to find them, and if he does, can they hold on to his bullets.

OFFENSIVE UNE When a team leads the nation in rushing offense and total offense, the line must be doing something right. Nebraska gets an edge. It's tough to argue with the DEFENSIVE LINE Saturday night's game will showcase two of the best defensive tackles in the country, Nebraska's "Jim Skow and Oklahoma State's Leslie O'Neal. No advantage there. But the Comhuskers are wounded at defensive end.

LINEBACKERS Oklahoma State has a rich tradition of linebackers, but this year's group doesn't quite match Nebraska's. The linebackers on both teams can expect a busy night. SECONDARY The key individuals here are Oklahoma State free safety Mark Moore and Nebraska strong safety Brian Washington, two of the best defensive backs in the Big Eight KICKING 'f Nebraska's biggest improvement in recent weeks has been in the kicking game. Stilt Oklahoma State may have an edge in place-kicker Joey O'Donnell. Nebraska (3-1) at Oklahoma State (4-0) Time: 6:30 p.m.
