"M- Sports -fi THE KANSAS CITY STAR 1 Sports The Outdoors The Outdoors KANSAS CITY SUNDAY OCTOBER 18 1970 SECTION on Mizzou Irish Jump The last touchdown drive consumed nine plays Missouri had the Irish stopped once but a personal foul penalty gave them a second chance and they made the most of it Theismann passed 29 yards to Gatewood to put the ball half a yard from the goal and Gulyas carried it over to make Notre lead 24-7 with two minutes gone in the fourth quarter The Irish who came into the game with a 408 scoring average the best in the nation obviously hoped to raise their prestige by turning the game into a rout but even though Theismann remained in the line-up until the closing minutes Missouri refused to yield any aaditonal points Theismann had an outstanding day completing 15 of 24 passes for 209 yards He also gained 56 yards rushing Gate-wood who led the nation in pass receiving coming into the game had eight receptions for 123 yards The Tigers who have been weakened by a series of injuries gave a courageous performance They were still in the game until Notre Dame scored its final touchdown but they simply generate enough offense to keep up with the Irish Notre Dame had 489 yards of total offense 280 passing and 209 on the ground Missouri had only 208 yards of total See IRISH page 3S By Joe McGuff Tha Star'i Sports Editor Columbia Mo battered football forces held Notre Dame without a touchdown in the first half yesterday and then sent shock waves through a record crowd of 64200 in Memorial stadium by streaking 52 yards in three plays to take a 7-3 lead with 1:52 elapsed in the third quarter Unfortunately for the Tigers their scoring thrust electrified the Fighting Irish as well as the spectators Notre Dame immediately turned loose the full force of its versatile offense and staged touchdown drives of 76 91 and 54 yards to claim a 24-7 victory Joe Theismann Notre great quarterback passed for the first two touchdowns and set up the third with a pass The Irish who gained only 42 yards passing in the first half threw four times in driving to their first touchdown and completed three of them for a total of 49 yards Theismann passed five yards to Tom Gatewood in the end zone to put Notre Dame back ahead 10-7 Notre Dame used 10 plays on its 89-yard touchdown drive throwing on five of them for 76 yards The touchdown came on a pass in the flat

of The Star's Sports Staff Lawrence Kas The Nebraska Cornhuskers put a football powerhouse on display here yesterday In defeating Kansas 41-20 before a Memorial stadium crowd of 50200 the Huskers did just about everything expected of a team ranked fifth in the country They chewed up the defense with a stunning and well-balanced attack that netted 515 yards choked off Kansas completely in the second half and demonstrated the ability to come from behind As one-sided as the game became it was not that way throughout as Kansas struck for three electrifying touchdowns within a 7-minute span in the first half to turn a 10-0 deficit into a 20-10 lead At that point the Huskers perhaps showed great resiliency Faced with a rapidly-deteriorating situation they had every opportunity to fold Instead they answered in nine seconds with an 80-yard touchdown play from Van Brownson to Guy Ingles and followed up with a 73-yard touchdown drive to seize a 24-20 half-time lead In the second half they maintained control of the game by cutting off Kansas without a scoring threat until the final moments and keeping its own attack clicking at a devastating pace The leading figure in the Nebraska triumph was Brownson making his first start of the season at quarterback The 6-foot-3 junior who shared time almost equally with Jerry Tagge last year in the 2-quarterback arrangement had been shoved into the background by an injury this season and early effectiveness He was instrumental in victory over Missouri a week ago and brightened his image considerably here yesterday Proving himself an adept runner as well as passer he scored two touchdowns and passed for two In all he accounted for 242 yards including 183 on a 10-for-15 passing performance In addition to his 80-yard touchdown strike to Ingles he threaded a 5-yard scoring toss to Johnny Rodgers the sensational sophomore His runs were for 15 and two yards Rogers Ingles Haul in Passes Rodgers and Ingles were the major receivers while Joe Orduna Dan Scheiss and Jeff Kinney kept the ground machine functioning smoothly Orduna who has had operations on both knees within the last year was the biggest ground gainer with 67 yards on 16 carries Scheiss scored other touchdown a smash from the 2-yard line It an all-Nebraska show however Not by a longshot Led by Steve Conley and John Riggins Kansas mounted an effective

their new artificial turf Manning bothered by a groin injury in recent weeks completed 30 of 56 passes but the Southern defenders came up with key plays to throttle everything after the first quarter Donegan mixed knifing thrusts by running back Larry Moulton with his own passing to keep Rebel defenders guessing He passed 44 yards to Bill Foley for a first-quarter touchdown and guided an 80-yard
