He started a new one by hitting two in the second half Almost lost in the important victory was the performance of the Black Shirt defensive unit which threw Tiger quarterback Steve Pisarkiewicz to losses nine times and intercepted him once Mizzou Runners Halted The Huskers also contained Missouri's running game, limiting the Tigers to 134 yards on the ground "I thought Nebraska played defense better than it has all year," MU coach Al Onorfio said "They were a lot more effective against our running game Why, I don't know -maybe it's because they were playing Missouri "When they shut off the running game, it affected our whole offensive phase They were extremely agressive Pisarkiewicz, the Big Eight's leading passer, completed 12 of 27 for 151 yards and had only one intercepted It came at the end of the Tigers' deepest penetra- i a their touchdown) to the NU 8 A touchdown there would have cut the Husker lead to seven or eight points, depending on MU's decision for a one or two point play But Dave Butterfield nabbed the pass intended for Henry Marshall at the goal and ran it out to the 10 The 61-yard TD pass to Thomas seven plays later sealed the victory. Three-Man Front Nebraska used a three-man defensive front on most obvious passing situations and had good results.

"We felt rather than drop off an end, we would add an extra defensive Osborne said. "We just didn't feel Phillips was as agile as Kurt Stacey." The Tigers went into the game with an average of 11.5 yards on punt returns, but were able to runback only two of Lessman's seven kicks for seven yards. O'Leary ended up as the Huskers leading rusher with 70 yards in 10 attempts. I-oack Monte Anthony gained 65 in IS tries. Fullback Tony Davis gained 49 yards, just 11 yards short of tieing Bobby Reynolds' record of 2,196 yards second best by a Husker in history.

Davis needs 236 yards to become NU's all- time leading ball carrier.

Defensive Tackle Mike Fultz "We just buckled down and got the done We'd been criticized the last couple of weeks for not getting to the quarterback. Our entire defensive line was determined to get the done this time Defensive end Ray Phillips On his block of a MU punt which led to Nebraska's first touchdown "It wasn't a 'block' play We were actually planning a return But we always rush one guy all the way to the punter and I happened to find an alley and got a hand on it Split End Bobby Thomas "I felt the defense played a great oarne Butterf leld's interception made a big difference I felt I could blow by the Missouri defender When Vince pumped, it brought the cornerback up and I just went blowing by Boulder, Colo Nebraska finished last in the Big Eight Conference cross country championship Saturday as Harold Stelzer provided the top Husker effort finishing 34th with a fame of 27 11 Kansas State placed five of its runners among the top ten finishers to easily outdistance runherup Colorado for the team title Paced by Jeff Schemmel, Kansas State recorded an unofficial all-time low score of 25 as well as its 10th Big Eight title Schemmel led all the way to take individual honors in 25 minutes, 22 seconds Oklahoma State's Colin Cumming was second in 25 25, followed by Chris Perez, Kansas State, 25 31 and Rick Musgrave, Colorado, 25 37 Other KSU finishers in the top 10 were Keith Palmer, 6th, Don Akin, 7th, and Larry Beesley, 8th NU Sticksters Gain Two Wins Two Nebraska field hockey teams took on Empona Saturday and both beat the visitor, 2-1 and 3-1 In the first game, Mary Claire Franssen scored both goals for the NU team, while Marcy Greer tallied for Empona Nebraska, now 10-2, will host the Region VI field hockey tournament Nov 14-15 Big Eight Standings Nebraska Oklahoma Colorado Missouri Kansas Oklahoma State Iowa State Kansas State All games Conf 80 40 80 4-0 62 22 53 22 53 22 5-3 1 3 44 1 3 35 04 This Week's Results Nebraska 30 Missouri Oklahoma 27 Oklahoma State 7 Colorado 28 Iowa State 27 Kansas 28 Kansas State 0 Next Week's Foes Nebraska at Kansas State Oklahoma State at Colorado Kansas at Oklahoma Missouri at Iowa State Randolph Oldsmobile Co.

On Leo Lewis' fumbled punt, which led to Nebraska's second touchdown "Don't fault him He's caught everything that'd been kicked to him before A team is supposed to continue playing football and not let something like that affect them On tailback Tony Galbreath, who was checked to 34 yards on 15 carries "He's still not at full speed, but he was in the best condition he's been In for several weeks On intense rivalry "The competition between these two schools is keen and Missouri lust brought out the best Nebraska today Split End Randy Grossart Former Nebraskan, who caught five passes for 72 yards "My parents (former McCook Junior College football coach Rex and his wife, Pat) were here today (from Chlco, Calif) and it really hurts to lose "This game meant more to me than any I've played I really wanted it bad But now that it's over, I'd like to see Nebraska beat Oklahoma. "Oklahoma has been up there too long.

They need someone to knock them off I hope we can beat them here two weeks Nebraska's got the defense to do it I think the reason their defense Is so good is because it's so well coached.
