And now. other Big Eight publicists may find it a tough job to top the football brochure produced this year by Sports Information Director Don Bryant, chronicling the past, present and future of Cornhusker football.

"Coach Bob whose Huskers have won 28 of games in three seasons and a like number of bowi games, let enthusiasm get the better of his common sense, to be sure.

But like always, willing to call a spade a spade." Bryant quotes Devaney. "We should be better, both offensively and defen.sively." hut points out that the Husker coach talking about victories when he indicates improvement. He's talking about quality and experienced personnel." No Surrender Planned Devaney. who pointed out a year ago that the Huskers would not surrender their title without a fight despite being the underdogs in pre-season polls, warns the Big Eight proved mastertul in tne again that they are in for a fight with the Cornhuskers clutch situation, whether thev are favored or not. southpaw struck out 14 and walked just two in notching the victory.
