Broadcasts-WOW (590), KFAB (1110), KFOR (1240), KLIN (1400). By DON FORSYTHE One of facts of life is that you spend much 'time savoring a big win.

The next weekend rolls around all too soon. And so it has been in the Nebraska and Kansas camps this week. The Cornhuskers ended three years of frustration at the hands of Missouri with a 21-7 win over the Tigers while Kansas was upsetting rival Kansas State, 21-15. The wins were especially big since they left Kansas and Nebraska atop the Big Eight standings with perfect 1-0 records. The season is only two weeks old, but five teams have already been saddled with conference losses.

one factor which makes Nebraska invasion of Kansas a big game. The other is a historical one not ancient history, but last controversial 21-17 Nebraska victory. Kansas, which forged a 17-14 lead on Bill 24-yard field goal with 14:14 to play in the fourth quarter, continued to dominate play down the stretch. It marched from its own 24 to the Nebraska 12 where the Cornhuskers stopped a fourth and one plunge by Ron Jessie for no gain. But the Cornhuskers were 88 yards from the end zone with only 4:27 to play.

Things looked especially black when it was fourth and 16 at the Nebraska 37 with only 1:58 to play and quarterback Jerry Tagge was forced to scramble out of the pocket. His long desperation pass downfield appeared to be just that, but as tight end Jim McFarland lunged for the toss he became entangled with Kansas defender Mark Geraghty at the Kansas 32. It was ruled pass interference, and when the Jayhawks furiously protested the call they were assessed a 15-yard penalty. That put the ball on the Kansas 17. Three plays later the huskers had driven to the six and been given a first and goal Jeff Kinney Starting I-Back? at the three when the Jayhawks were charged with a personal foul.

Jeff Kinney blasted over' for the go-ahead touchdown with 1:22 to play and the huskers had turned almost certain defeat into victory. It was the start of something big for Nebraska, which tasted defeat in 11 games since. The Jayhawks never recovered, finishing 1-9 for the season and 0-7 in the Big Eight after having been Big Eight champions with Oklahoma the year before. Nebraska coach Bob Devaney figures those memories will inspire the Jayhawks this week. Needless to say, Nebraska memories of the game are assurance that the Cornhuskers take the Jayhawks lightly.

Devaney has defeated Kansas coach Pepper Rodgers just once in three years, the Jayhawks having won 10-0 in 1967 and 23-13 in 1968. But the Cornhuskers own a 52-21-3 series advantage over the Jayhawks. Devaney sent the Cornhuskers through an hour- long workout in sweat clothes Thursday to wrap up on-the- field preparations for the Jayhawks. Alternate linebacker Bruce Hauge was not listed on the 47- man travel roster because of an ailing back. Devaney also noted that offensive guard Keith Wortman would be sent to the Student Health Center Thursday night because of illness and that he might not make the trip.

just not sure about quarterback. One minute I think start one guy and the next minute I think says Devaney of his choice between Jerry Tagge and Van Brownson. just say be starting a righthander against Tagge went the route against Kansas a year ago and has started all five (Jornhusker games this fall but Brownson came on in the second half last week to engineer the win over Missouri. The indecision is no worry for Devaney. He regards the quarterbacking situation as being similar in strength to tho I-back spot where Joe Ordtma and Jeff Kinney have alternated.

Their competition for a starting job is a real Devaney a coin flip to pick Kinney over Orduna against Missouri last week. Orioles Collect Paychecks On Rainy Afternoon Baltimore (JN-All the clouds have rolled by for the Baltimore Orioles, basking in a shower of champagne after they turned a rainy payday into a World Series bonanza.

Moreover, it vindicated their claim to major league supremacy after a year of attrition. money is a great reward but the personal of being the best ball club means said Frank Robinson, who led the Orioles to their initial Series conquest five years ago against Los Angeles and started their LINCOLN, FRIDAY, OCT. 16, PAGE 19 Just like we did in this Series. But I think we played up to our capability against Cuellar, a 24-game winner during the season but an early knockout victim in the second Series game, was at his best Thursday after a shaky start. He yielded three runs on four hits in the first inning, then checked the Reds on two harmless singles the rest of the way.

Frank Robinson, O-for-9 in the first two games at Cincinnati last weekend, closed the gap in bottom of the first with his second homer of the Series. The Orioles scored two runs in the second to take the lead and added two more in the third, another in the fifth on Merv homer and a final pair in the eighth. Blair and Dave Johnson led the assault against six Cincinnati pitchers with three hits apiece. had deep respect for the Reds but I think we caught them short on said Brooks Robinson who received final charge Thursday with a two-run homer. makes up for said Brooks Robinson, whose clutch hitting and sensational defensive play earned him landslide acclaim as the most valuable player in the series.

Copple completed four of five passes in the drive, climaxed when Reighard went over from three yards out. The Spartans also tallied on their second possession. It started when Neal picked off a Columbus pass at the East 44. It took Copple just six plays to travel the 56 yards. He covered most of the distance with a three-for-three passing performance, hitting Ball with a 22-yarder plus 10 and 19-yard tosses to Gene Smith, the last one for the tally.

Rest assured that the Nebraska band will come up with a new offense for the Oklahoma State game. Hopefully it will be more successful than new offense was against Texas. The Sooners had two weeks off and changed their offense from a Veer-T to the Texas Wishbone-T.

Needless to say, the Longhorns had a (iefense for it. The old forecaster could use a new offense, too, after a sub- par 36-16 mark last week which dropped the season average to .752. This forecast: Big Eight Nebraska 24, Kansas have the tools to break the rubber band defense. Colorado 28, Oklahoma- have re-tooled their offense, but it be enough. Buffs put it all together last week.
