HUSKERS BOP SOONERS, 21-9 Scores STATE Nebraska Oklahoma Tulsa IX. Stale Nebraska Ices Clean Season In Second Half By John Oonley Staff Writer LINCOLN Shucks, the Cornhuskers weren't so hot Thursday not until ihey slipped imo their familiar killer's role in thp third quarter when Hairy Wilson scored twice within five minutes as Nebraska reaped a 21-9 victory over Oklahoma's walking wounded. Thereafter it was about as easy as operating an automatic eornpicking machine, although the patcheri-up Sooners jumped Nebraska for an early 9-0 advantage and led for the first 35 minutes. The fumbling Nebraskans were mildly surprised by Ihe early turn of events but retained their composure fully aware thai it was a case of merely ha tiering down and running over ihe crippled OU forces for their first season sweep since 1915. ine powermi J-luskers made a lot: of nersons hannv Point Parade Vachholtz kick THIRD QUARTER Game in Figures while coming from behind for the third time this year, namely: A crowd of 52.865 roundly applauding Nebraska's third successive Big Eight championship with this bristling 10-0 season, and Happy Orange Bowl sponsors wdio gambled as long as three games ago with a bid to one of Nebraska's most polished and potent productions of all time.

As on nine previous occasions in 1965, when all the chips were down the Huskers came through like true champions as Wilson broke a 66-yard scoring run that overhauled Oklahoma, after which his second touchdown on a long pass play atoned for Nebraska's surprising loss last fall in Norman.

Wilson was a whirlwind as Nebraska's two-touchdown punch in the third quarter carried Oklahoma to its sixth loss in nine games. The wide-sweeping junior punished the Sooners for 160 yards rushing as Nebraska overpowered Oklahoma with a total figure of 411 to 229, although most of the time the Huskers' air attack was nothing to boast about. OV had to work hard at the shuttle system to keep warm, healthy bodies in the lineup. Seeing only spot duty were limping hacks Tommy Pannell and Ben Hart and the anchor man of the Sooner defense, linebacker Carl MeAdams. A throng of oiher Oklahomans flitted in and out of the game either temporarily wounded or worse.
