Sooners that after a bizarre week and a goofy game something wrong can come out right decided not to try an onside said Switzer a coach who Remains Mystery may nave ten Murphy Law was ex hausted by

thought the onside play was on and angled a line drive to his left i The ball bounced off a startled Cow boy and right back into the hands of Scott Case the safety whose fumbled punts ironically had set up an Okla homa State touchdown and field goal earlier mistake thus gave the Sooners the ball on the Oklahoma State 49 and they nudged it close enough from there for him to kick a 46 yard field goal with 1:14 left So Oklahoma won without Dupree who was still back home in Mississippi and has indicated he might transfer to another school The way Switzer talked in the wildly celebrating locker room afterward he care if he does all the things Marcus has said I don't think he wants to be here" Switzer said just wish him well wherever he Defensive tackle Rick Bryan sounded even less sympathetic "Marcus Dupree is no longer a member of this declared Bryan who was the star of a unit that allowed Oklahoma State only three first downs from scrimmage and 120 yards total offense "He quit What can I say? If he goes to Southern Mississippi 1 hope he does well got to go on without But assistant coach Lucious Selmon who flew to Hattiesburg Miss to visit Dupree riday night and talked to him by phone before the game Saturday sounded more optimistic that the big sophomore might return think the door is open to him to come said Selmon who decided to visit Dupree without know ledge but reported the head coach was not upset Saturday morning when he told him of the trip told me he still needed time to think things said Selmon best thing for him to do is to come back to Oklahoma Otherwise he'll

believe that ISU will be on top five weeks from now But at least one can dream is the Big Eight the second season has begun" said fullback Jacobs elaborating on what has be come the battle cry Coach Criner came here his challenge from day one was to build a team that was competitive in the Big Eight We feel goojj about ourselves We feel we can beat a lot of the teams in the Big Eight" Two weeks ago however Iowa State even beat New Mexico State The Aggies came here and left with a wyaraetfort ainS KU was headed could see that this team had a backbone but it was a matter of trying to find a way to do Criner said In the two subsequent games Iowa State has done it any which way it can The Cyclones trailed Kansas a week ago by two touchdowns early in the fourth quarter before rallying to pull out a 38 35 win with a field goal with no time left on the clock was never quite so uramatic Satur day against the Buffaloes ISU scored (three times in the first half to take a 19 10 lead then relied on its defense and own ineptness to even its record at 3 3 feels outstanding" Criner said of being a Big Eight co leader "If you would have asked me that two weeks ago I would have had you show me a bridge so I could jump off of The only jumping Criner wanted to do Saturday was for joy On the other hand Colorado Coach Bill McCartney might have considered asking direc tions to the nearest bridge The loss left his Buffaloes 2 4 with Nebraska next up Without dramatic improvement Colorado appears headed for its fifth straight losing season Needed to "This was a game we needed to McCartney said two teams were pretty evenly The statistics back up McCartney Iowa State gained 333 yards including 200 behind quarterback David 19 of 31 passing Colorado gained 301 yards and had three more first downs than ISU The Cyclones gave the football away twice on an interception and a fumble while only turnover was a Steve Vogel interception The difference was in in backer Len ontes intercepted three passes and recovered a fumble Satur day as Dartmouth upset Harvard 28 12 in Ivy League football ontes a sophomore pressed into ac tion by first period injuries to starters marched his team 73 yards in 11 plays The last was a 14 yand scoring pass to reserve flanker Dan Gantt The only score of the second half was Marc 19 yard field goal with 2:15 to play Iowa State had made mat ters academic by then thanks mainly to a defensive stand early in the fourth quarter that turned CU away empty handed after the Buffaloes had reached the Cyclone 3 story of game was that we made mistakes but our defense made a great Cnner said Try the Super Bowl of Chili Johnson who shook off an ankle in jury to gain 105 yards said "With Mar cus gone I knew I had to carry the load After the kind of week had I think coming back and winning like this will help us more than winning by two or three touchdowns We proved we can get back So the Sooners share the top in the Big Eight race undefeated in conference
