Huskers Out to Win First Game in Boulder Since 54 By DICK BECKER Denver, Colo. Coach Bob Devaney. a favorite of football fans in this area from his days at Wyoming, brought his undefeated University of Nebraska team to town Friday. geared for battle with the Colorado Buffaloes at nearbv Boulder Saturday. Nebraska won at Boulder since 1954 but the Cornhuskers are favored to spoil the Homecoming this time.

Some 35.000 fans are expected at Folsom Field to witness the Huskers' awesome offense against wide-open pro-type passing attack. CU's defending Big 8 champions have been decimated by NCAA and conference punishment for recruiting violations. Bud Davis, who took over when Coach Sonny Grandeli us was fired, has sent the Buffs to the air, using as many as 40 passes in a single game. And last week the Buffs surprised Iowa State wit! a ground march for their first touchdown in a game that wound up as a 57-19 win for the Cyclones. The Buffs have forgotten this one.

But Nebraska has even higher stakes to play for. The Cornhuskers have won 5, assuring them of their best start since 1933. If they can win this one, they'll have hit 6 wins, a high mark for the school since the Rose Bowl team of 940 had an 8-2 record and the 1954 team finished 6-5. And this win is a must if charges are to Ringnecks Under Fire On Saturday By PETE The gullies, weed patches, cornfields, milo fields, and any other spot frequented by pheasants will find new occupants at sunrise Saturday morning. At the first peek of the sun, hunters will launch the nation's longest ringneck season here in days.

Mel Steen, Game Commission director cautions hunters to obtain permission from landowners before hunting on private lands.

An influx of non-resident hunters is expected to bulge the army of resident sportsmen. The fame of liberal season length and bag limits has attracted many out- of-state hunters.

This will keep the offensive burden on quarterback Dennis Claridge who has and passed the Huskers to the 7th best offensive record in the nation. Nebraska's pass yardage of 705 is just short of 734 yards but the Huskers have thrown just 87 times and completed 48 while the Buffs' have tossed 147 and hit 70. It is obvious that pass defense will play a key the game and the Cornhuskers are being reminded often of Kansas 86-yard touchdown pass play on the Wildcats first play last week. The Wildcat passing threw Nebraska out of the top 10 rankings in pass defense nationally.

The Huskers were scheduled for a short workout at Boulder Friday afternoon and an over-night stay in Denver.
