But the Sooners had only about 33 seconds in contest to be thinking about Nebraska. That was the time left in the contest when Oklahoma wrapped up the hard-fought win. For the first 59 minutes and 27 seconds coach Bud Big Red was too busy putting down Tiger uprisings to worry about the Huskers. Neither team was able to dominate any phase of the game and the main difference on the scoreboard was more a result of Missouri fumbles and misguided passes rather than any spectacular play exhibited by the Oklahomans.

Oklahoma mounted only one sustained drive and that came at the end of the game when theN Sooners drove 68 yards in 12 plays to put the game out of reach with 33 seconds left. The Sooners drove all the way on the ground with Larry Brown running from Jim fullback spot, picking up the big chunks of yardage. Halfback Larry Shields capped the drive when he sprinted around right end on a fourth and two situation for the TD. George Jarman, who had missed the first PAT kick, made good this time to give Oklahoma its final 13-3 advantage. While Oklahoma had only one sustained drive, the ers could do no better and march led only to a field goal and not a touchdown.

The Tigers lone march came near the end of the first half when they took over on their own 20 after Jarman had missed a field goal attempt. Missouri pushed downfield to the Sooner 26 before being stopped. But Bill Leistritz then stepped onto the field and with the 18 mile an hour wind to his back, the 1 iger place kicking specialist booted a 43-yard field goal to Continued on Page 4-D, Col. 5 How Ion Tim I a rrf 1.

Regardless of the outcome of next game with Oklahoma, which will have the league title and Orange Bowl bid riding on it. the Huskers have now matched their regular season victory total of last season when they finished 8-2. And Nebraska will undoubtedly receive a bid to either the Blucbonnet or Gator Bowl, should the Huskers lose to Oklahoma.

Only 17.500 turned out to watch the ninth-ranked Cornhuskers roll to their eighth victory of the season against a lone setback to Air Force, but they were treated to another excellent performance by fast coming Fred Duda, the sophomore quarterback from Chicago who went all the way since Dennis Claridge even make the trip.
