Dean Carlson connected with hefty sophomore Ike Harris on two long touchdown passes and riddled Kansas porous pass defense for 235 yards in the air Saturday, pacing Iowa State to a 24-0 victory. The Cyclones, now 1-1 in the Big Eight Conference and 4-1 for the season, put points on the scoreboard three of the first six times they had the ball to build a 17-0 lead which K-State never threatened. The Wildcats blew a chance to get in the game when Ron Coppenbarger intercepted a Carlson pass and returned it 49 yards to the Iowa State 12 early in the second quarter. But K-State let the opportunity slip away as Fred Merrill got trapped for a nine- yard loss on a reverse and John Goerger missed a 30-yard field goal attempt.

Carlson promptly drilled a 64- yard touchdown pass to six- foot-four, 210 pound Harris for the 17-0 lead. Carlson also hit Harris from 28 yards out five minutes into the second half for the 24-0 bulge. That pass capped a 51-yard Cyclone drive in nine plays. Carlson finished with 18 completions in 29 attempts, the best game in his career. Harris caught five passes for 123 yards and Keith Krepfley, five for 51.

Kansas State, its homecoming spoiled, suffered its first shutout since Iowa State trimmed the Wildcats, 17-0, midway in the 1967 season. The Cyclones scored the se- ccind time they had the ball with Reggie Shoemake booting a 44-yard field goal behind a blistery south wind after Iowa State moved 26 yards for a pair of first downs. On their fourth possession, the Cyclones drove 57 yards in five plays to send George Amundson careening two yards into the end zone on a quick pitch off the left side. The score reached 17-0 on Iowa sixth possession. Carlson passed 64 yards to Harris for this touchdown, Harris catching the ball in a crowd at the Kansas State 25.

Bob: Offense Not at Best By VIRGIL PARKER Would you believe that Nebraska, scoring its most lopsided victory over a major college opponent since 1911, have a good offensive day while blanking Kansas, 55-0, Saturday? had a good defensive head Husker Bob Devaney admitted, referring to a school record of minus 42 yards rushing his Black Shirts posted against the Jayhawks. it may seem strange to criticize our offense when we put 55 points on the board, bnt this was not necessarily our best offensive day of the Devaney said he likes to see the offense take advantage of every scoring opportunity.

defense kept giving them the ball in good field position all the Husker head man explained, they lost at least five opportunities down close. Sometimes they were stopped by penalties, other times by bad plays. But in either case the offense failed to score. the one criticism I had of Devaney may have another critical comment to make, but it be made public. be reviewing the films carefully Devaney said, only looking at the way our players performed, but also at the way the game was officiated.

Then forward my complaint to the commissioner of officials that it will do any Devaney said he was surprised, along with a of 68,311, that an. apparent Kansas fumble opening kickoff awarded to Nebraska. Coach, Defense When the defense, instead of the offense, had to go out on the field for the first play of the game, Devaney admitted they were pretty mad. so was the he added. defen.se has to get the credit for this the Cornhusker boss asserted.

nullified what really is a good Kansas offen.se. And once we got their ground game stopped and so worried about the run, we went to work on our pass rush. what led to the school rushing record throwing the quarterback for all those big Is the pass rush better than last year? learning to get the job done with fewer people and thus leaving more people to defend against the Devaney explained. How about a general comparison with last national championship team? were tested earlier last Devaney answered. hard to compare because we played better teams early in the season last fall.

Our toughest games this fall are still ahead of Hearing the result of the Oklahoma-Colorado game, Devaney said, obvious Oklahoma has a fairly decent club. But we worrying about them. Our only concern now is an Oklahoma State team that always gives us trouble when we play them in Stillwater. Any team that can score 37 points against Missouri (which Oklahoma State did Saturday), will be getting our attention. worry about the others when the time Palmer Tops In Laneome not record )n the Paris Arnold Palmer shot a course record 65 Saturday for a three-stroke lead over Gary Player of South Africa after three rounds of the ceme Trophy golf tournament.

from Page IE defense that had all 11 men within five yards of the line of scrimmage to stop the awesome Sooner rushing attack. those Sooners ran wild. The Sooners gained 498 yards on the ground, well above their leading average of 427.8 yards per game. That total offense figure of 670 naturally was well above their leading figure of 479.5 per game. Hut while the Oklahoma offense was awesome, the Sooner defense, overlooked in all the ballyhoo over the wishbone-T, was nearly as devastating to hopes as were their offense brethren.

The Sooner defensive line made pass blocking look terrible as it got to quarterback Ken Johnson repeatedly in the first half for losses anil it held Colorado, one of the total offense leaders with an average of 423.6 yards per game, to 324 yards, most of it coming after the contest had been decided. In the first half while the Sooners were piling up that 24-0 advantage, the Buffs could only gain 26 yards on the ground and 66 tlu-ough the air. Colorado might have gotten an indication of what kind of afternoon it was going to be after it had lined up for first three plays from the line of scrimmage. On the first play, pitchout went astray and he recovered for a three-yard loss. On the second play, the Buffs were called for a delay of game while Johnson was calling his audibles.

And on the third play Johnson fumbled the snap from center. Things go much better for the Buffs until the third quarter when they put all 17 of their points on the board and by that time, it was all over but the counting. Pruitt raced 66 yards for the first OU score with 7:41 left in the first quarter and went 59 yards to the Colorado 24 to set up sneak from the three that made it 24-0 with 5:02 in the first half. was ability of thej Oklahoma players more than' anything losing coach Eddie Crowder explained. got a lot better team than it today just not quite as much as Oklahoma.
