Dont forget to credit senior: Rick Fulcher's right leg, either, for he swung it with proper strength and undeniable accuracy in mid-fourth quarter for a 41-yard field goal that supplied the margin of victory. "Sure there was pressure, but you have to clear your mind," said Fulchcr, who adjusted his steps after "scooping" two earlier misses.

"You have to feel you can make it and that's the way I felt." He made it, all right, the chance coming courtesy of mustangs and swarming red ants, as the Sooncrs denied (at least temporarily) the Huskers from repeating as league kings and kept Coach Bob Devaney from winning his last home game.

Swarm Ilumm "We ask our down lineman and they're the best three in the country to play like swarming red ants," says Larry Lacewell, now Oklahoma's defensive coordinator but once an Iowa State assistant. Man, did Moore, Selmon and Hamilton act like swarming red ants.

A record crowd of 76,587 and a national television audience, undoubtedly sated with turkey and dressing, must have shuddered as they kept swarming after David Humm. Humm is the smooth soph omore southpaw quarterback of the Orange Bowl-bound Huskers and, shortly after the Sooners had scored their second second-half touchdown to negate a 14-0 deficit, he tried to' pass. David was standing there, looking into the distance. Pow!
