4S THE KANSAS CITY STAR Sunday October 13 198 KU Fans Shout Not Pepper KANSAS PULLS FROM BEHIND had a real tough defensive secondary They covered us real close and when we did get open they hit us right away They were aggressive real Tackle Keith they the toughest? Oh by far They have our respect All of As Rodgers said is tougher against But that statement went out of Memorial stadium along with the 67119 fans Now its is tougher against Kan- fourth-and-1 situation at the Nebraska 10 in the first period when he instructed the Jayhawks to go for a first down rather than a field goal They make it: A strong Husker pass rush made Douglass hurry his throw and it did not reach split end George McGowan But it worked just the same tried a field he explained would have been against the wind (and abont a 27-yard attempt) and if made it have had to kick to them again I want ed to keep the ball down As for a play Monday morning quarterbacks will be talking about a long the intentional safety in the third period he said it a bad play a 4-point lead is as good as a 6-point lead and they have to punt out of their end zone expect it I thought they had lost count of the downs that happens you Pepper would not single out any of the Jayhawks for a pat on the back was a team was all he would say he had plenty of praise for the Cornhuskers just happy to win Nebraska does have a great defensive team They made it tough for us But everything is tough against His players agreed with him 100 per cent Karl Salb defensive ready for that game have to admit that They were tough They gave me an awful lot of Wingback John (Continued From Page IS) His Jayhawks kept their cool and used their physical power to push a Bob Devaney-tough Nebraska team off the field Rodgers picked out two plays in the drive John run (an off-tackle smash for 11 yards) and Mike draw (which went for 12 yards on a second and 11 situation) as the Jayhawks key plays in the second half But the one he remembered best was a first-half play that was as plays go a bust: the Bowl Scouts in Stands but Elusive (By The Star's Own Service) Lincoln Neb Orange bowl and New Sugar bowl representatives watched Kansas-Nebraska game but Pepper Rodgers Jayhawk coach appeared only mildly interested at first are a lot of bowl he said say em all and take The Sugar bowl scout stopped by to offer his congratulations When he had gone a voice in the crowd around Rodgers demanded: he say Returned Pepper: say the only thing I wanted to you BOWERS LEADS MARCH North Carolina State Defeats South Carolina 36-12 Raliegh Halfback Charlie Bowers scored three touchdowns to lead North Carolina

romping abound the left side the final 10 Sards with the help of a great lock by John Riggins Frank Patrick finally was in serted at quarterback in place of Ernie Sigler by the Huskers but after one first-down pass his next long desperation heave was picked off at the Kansas 9 by Dale Holt The final statistics are indica five of how close this tremendous battle was Each team had 15 first downs and there was only a 7-yard spread in the rushing and passing totals with Me braska holding the advantage 239-232 toughest problem was trying to corral fleet hard running Joe Orduna and Dick Davis Orduna was the leading ground gainer with 98 yards on 21 carries and Davis added 74 on 15 trips Shanklin was the leader with 54 yards on 16 assignments Everything But Score Kansas dominated the first quarter after electing to receive the kickoff driving to the Husk-er 42 on its first possession and to the 10 the next time as Nebraska had possession for only seven plays from scrimmage On the second Jayhawk march which started at their 38 they elected to go for a touchdown rather than a field goal On fourth down and needing a yard Douglass swept to his left but ran into a swarm of hard-charging Huskers and had to throw a pass hurriedly Intended for George McGowan it fell out of his reach After a clipping penalty on a punt had put Nebraska back on its 8 early in the second quarter the Huskers started an assault that was thwarted at the 39 But then came a big break in their favor as Shanklin called for a fair catch collided with a teammate and dropped the ball Orduna recovered for the Huskers at the 28 On the first play Orduna sliced over right tackle cut back to his left and raced across the goal line unmolested Paul Rogers who had won two games earlier with field goals missed the extra point when his kick sailed to the left Kansas move the ball and quick kicked on third down with Nebraska taking over on its 12 After picking up three first downs the Huskers seemingly benefited from a pass interference call on Tommy Anderson at the Jayhawk 13 On the next play Hicks blitzed through to nail Sigler at the 22 and Nebraska elected to go for a field goal with eight seconds left to play- boot from the 29 was wide to the right Seems in Charge At this point Nebraska seemed to have all the momentum and the Husker fans were confident It seemed they had reason to be at the start of the third period when the Big Red swept from its 11 to the Kansas 37 in eight plays But the Jayhawks stiffened and forced another field goal attempt by Rogers from the 43 This time he kicked low and the ball bounded off a teammate and took over on its 41 Kansas was forced to punt and boot rolled dead on the Nebraska 1 The Huskers moved out to the 9 in two plays before Orduna was thrown at the 6 by A1 Jakobcic Rather than having to kick from the end zone Coach Bob Devaney had Sigler take the snap from center and race back to the end zone for a safety to give the Jayhawks two points at the 7:04 mark After an exchange of punts Hicks made his big play by racing in to pounce on a fumble by Davis at the 19 On third down and needing six yards Douelass fired a pass to Junior Riggins at the 6 John Riggins got one yard and Douglass four more before he pitched back to Shanklin who Sailed through the air for the touchdown with 2:04 to go kick put in front for the first time 9-6 On the second play of the final quarter the Huskers gained possession at the Kansas 49 following a punt It took them 11 plays to tour the distance with the key maneuver a 29-yard dash to the 5 by Davis off right tackle On third down Orduna cracked over from a yard out and this time Rogers added the point That made it 13-9 in favor of the Huskers and the din was deafening This was when poise paid off Refusing to panic and start throwing the ball in an attempt to get the lead back in a hurry the Jayhawks simply carried the fight to Nebraska and ground it out Key Coming Up The biggest gainer in the 74-yard drive was a 19-yarder by Mike Reeves right up the middle that carried to the Nebraska 20 Three plays later the Jayhawks had a first down at the 8 Then Douglass cocked his arm and fired a pass into the end zone Dana Stephenson was charged with pass interference and had an automatic first down on the 1 On ihe next play Douglass bulled over the right side for the touchdown with 4:09 left extra -point
