QUARTERBACK comeback with the game only 2:18 old Just as rain started dropping out of the buttermilk skies in the same period Lorenzo Brinkley squirted back 38 yards with a punt and Missouri had another chance They had to sell short a 20-yard field goal by Hill but with a 10-point edge and SMU's offense seemingly on a holiday it wasn't bad for starters The Mustangs wasted an opportunity when Don Deweber pounced on a Tiger fumble on their own 19 On the next play Hammond gave it back Shortly thereafter coach Hayden Fry sent in Weather-for to try his hand at operating the Pony attack The strategy wasn't productive So Hammond came back and was on the verge of putting SMU in front at intermission I LOUIS SCOTT fled 38 yards with a punt to set the Mustangs rolling He could have gone the distance if Bastable the punter hadn't upended him at the 19 SMU scored in four plays a 10 -yard pass to Hutchinson doing the big damage Al -Maxson got the TD from two yards out but Maxson's over -e ager interference spoiled a two-point pass that Hammond directed to Randy Dossett in the end zone Just before the half Hammond located James Lee Robinson with a perfect pass which James Lee dropped on what would have been a cinch 21-yard touchdown I I I ROPER SET the last-half tempo for the Tigers with a 34-yard pass to Otto Nichols that carried to SMU's one shortly after recess Johnson dived in for that one so tailback Jack Bastable ignited another thrust on Missouri's next possession Only safety Robert Popelka prevented Bastable from scoring after a 19-yard dash to SMU's 27 Here Roper

the way" Nebraska middle guard Rick Glover thought this game "was by far our best defensive showing of the year We penetrated better than in the previous games We're still looking for our first shutout" MOORE third of three quarterbacks the coach employed "That's the first time he's played He's been hurt all year with a bad foot" Stallings was quizzed as if his game plan called for more passing "We didn't have the ball very much We played de fense most of the time" Green who guided to six of its seven first downs said: "I thought if I could put a little pressure on their outside we might be able to get some yardage there Nebraska has a fine team Their defensive end (Willie) Harper gave us a lot of trouble" Nebraska coach Bob Devaney agreed that his defense was outstanding but said LINCOLN Neb "Nebraska is an outstanding team" said coach Gene Stallings in the wake of the nation's No 1 team's 34-7 victory over the Aggies "I thought we gave a great effort though We hit and hit good" he added noting the three fumbles Nebraska lost Stallings had praise for sophomore Mark Green the High Grid Scores NIVVVYVVVIZ' CONGOLEUM SHINYL VINYL CUSHION FLOR I 1110 II 1-1st Jones 28
