Nebraska, having turned in its best performance of the season last week in a game that saw the Huskers favored by the slimmest margin of the season, returns to the heavily favored role for contest with Kansas here.

The Huskers, often playing just good enough to win, but nevertheless winning in earlier contests, will go into 1:30 p.m. kickoff as a 32-point favorite to win their eighth straight contest. Previously this season, it has been in these predicted one-sided affairs that the Huskers have given their faithful followers their big- Kansa.s (2-4-1) No. Name Wt. 87 B.

And past games between the two schools since coach Bob Devaney took the Nebraska controls offer no clues as to whether this one will be easy or another fan-fright- ener. Four years ago, the Huskers scpred an easy 40-16 romp over the Jayhawks at Lawrence. But two years ago, Nebraska sneaked through with a 14-7 victory as Husker fans watched in horror when Gale Sayers got behind the NU defenders and a pass floated into his arms. But the KU speedster let the ball float on through his arms to the ground, preserving the Husker win. Last week, NU fans shoved their tranquilizer medicine in their coat pockets and headed for what figured to be a close contest with Missouri, but the Huskers made a rout of the game, 35-0.

About 6,000 Nebraskans are expected to follow the Huskers to Lawrence, helping set a record at the KU Stadium with 45,000 expected to see the contest. Nebraska fans helped set the record of 44,509 here two years ago, but an expansion program last summer has boosted capacity to 51,500. Capacity is not expected to be tested since the Jayhawks have faded after giving their fans illusions of success in early-season games. Coach Jack club, led by sophomore halfback Don Shanklin, got off to a racy start by whipping Arizona, 35-13, and Minnesota, 16-14, but then things got a hurry. Just when the Kansans had Big Eight followers beginning to notice them, they lost to Iowa State 24-7, Oklahoma 35-0, Oklahoma State 10-7, and then got a last-second tie with Kansas State last week 3-3.

This leaves Kansas with the possibility of going through the league season without a win since they must follow the Nebraska contest with dates against Colorado and Missouri. road any easier after the Kansas game since the Huskers face Oklahoma State and Oklahoma, both of whom are in contention for the league crown. The Huskers are already on nearly bowl list and Cotton Bowl officials will be getting their first look at the Huskers here today. Sugar Bowl officials have seen the Huskers twice and Orange Bowl moguls have been in the press box for one NU contest. In addition, the Sun Bowl lists Nebraska as one of its top choices.

But Nebraska is hardly thinking about picking a bowl site as yet and Devaney warns that Kansas must not be overlooked. can be Devaney says. scored four times in two minutes against Arizona and they rank quite high in statistics for the record they The Jayhawks rank second in total defense and in rushing defense in the league with Nebraska on top in both departments. But Kansas has had trouble scoring after the early-season spurt against Arizona and Minnesota. They have scored only two touchdowns in the last four games, one against Iowa State and one against Oklahoma State.

And the NU yearlings forge into the lead until midway in the final quarter with halfback Joe Orduna earning more than a single sei ving of the post-game meal that the victorious Huskers enjoyed on their return trip to Lincoln Friday night.

After falling behind 10-0, Nebraska started the comeback with Ken Geddes returning the ensuing kickoff to the Kansas 42. Then Orduna took over, carrying the ball eight of the 10 plays required to get across the KU goal. Orduna carried the ball five straight times after the Huskers got to the Kansas 21, getting into the end zone with a four-yard burst over the right side with 2:05 left in the third stanza. Coach John Melton chose to have his team go for the two- point conversion, thus giving the Huskers a chance to win with a field goal, but quarterback Wilfred Minor fumbled the ball and NU still trailed by 10-6 covered a Kansas fumble at the KU 29. But when this drive bogged down with a fourth and five at the Jayhawk eight, the missed two point conversion loomed as a key point in the contest.

Northeast took control and dominated the football almost from the beginning. After punting out on their first offensive drive of the game, the Rockets came right back the next time they took over the football to march in for the score. Behind the fine quarterbacking of senior Jerry Colvert, who did an excellent job of guiding the squad, Northeast moved the football 77 yards in 13 plays for the score. Wally Winter kicked the conversion and the Rockets were in front 7-0.

The first tally later proved to be all the Rockets needed as their defensive crew turned in an outstanding effort. North Platte made a strong threat to get on the before the halftime gun but their efforts were halted through the Northeast defensive effort, one of their best this season. The Bulldogs had taken over on their own 40 and had moved to the Northeast 16 behind a 39-yard pass play from their quarterback Mike McCarthy to his receiver Russ Morrell. With 2:16 remaining in the half. North Platte called time out to set up their final drive of the half.
