Hawks Must Win; Cellar To Loser
The last two winless teams in the Big Eight—Kansas and Nebraska will meet tomorrow night. The victor will move out of the conference cellar.
Tinoff time in Allen Field House is 7:35.
The Cornhuskers, who will go into the match with a 5-8 overall record, have lost conference games to Kansas State, 66-53, and Colorado, 75-47.
THE JAYHAWKERS, on the other hand, sport a 7-7 overall mark, but have lost to their first three conference opponents—Colorado, 73-57. Iowa State, 55-53, and Missouri, 62-56.
Coach Jerry Bush's team, bounced hard by Colorado, gave Kansas State a battle at Manhattan last weekend before falling in the closing minutes of the game. At the halftime intermission, State held only a one-point advantage, at 33-32.

The Hawkers have been struggling to regain the form that won them the Big Eight tourney championship. They have rallied in each of their conference losses, but have fallen short in the end.

On paper, the two teams are about equal, although the Cornhuskers sport a more balanced scoring attack with four men averaging in double figures. Top NU shooter is junior forward Daryl Petsch who is scoring at a 14.5 clip. Following him are Ivan Grupe (12.6), Charlie Jones (12.5), and Bill Vincent (11.7).
THE HAWKERS, on the other hand, boast double-figure scorers in center George Unseld, who is currently sporting an even 17-point average, and guard Nolen Ellison, 16.0. Forward Harry Gibson is close to the category with a 9.6 average.
Under the boards, the two teams are an even match for height. Nebraska's front line consists of Grupe (6-4), Jones (6-2), and Vincent (6-7). The Jayhawkers have Gibson (6-3), Jimmy Dumas (6-2), and Unseld (6-7) up front.
It's a fairly even match, but somebody's got to win.
Starting in the backcourt for NU will be Petch and Earl Wright, while KU will counter with Ellison and Dave Schichtle.

"What's the Matter with Kansas?" Contrary to popular opinion across the Hill, I do not sit in the Flint Hall belief with a deer rifle and shoot at happily Kawing Jayhawkers as they sit on the Fraser Hall flagpole.
Believe it or not, I like Jayhawkers. I like individual Jayhawkers. I like coveys of Jayhawkers.
WITH THIS IN MIND, let me again pose the $64,000 question:
“What's the Matter with Kansas?”
At this point, without treading on anybody's tennis, I would like to make this one reserved observation: Once the Hawkers hit the road, they've had it.
FOR EXAMPLE, Coach Dick Harp's charges have played 14 games to date. They have won seven and lost seven. In Allen Field House KU has won three and lost two; and those two losses were to stiff opponents, Cincinnati and Colorado. Considering the stature of these two teams, the Hawkers have given a very creditable showing to home-town fans.
But the Jayhawkers don't like to migrate — especially during the winter months.
Discounting the Big Eight tournament as being a trio of away-from-home games, the Hawkers have managed only a 1-5 won-lost record on the road. KU won its last "away" game against Northwestern. Dec. 22, at Evanston, Ill., 62-57.
PRIOR TO THAT time, the Jayhawkers lost to Arkansas 64-62 in an overtime to Michigan State, 81-62, and to Arizona State (at Manhattan), 71-62. And after bringing home the brass from Kansas City, KU has lost two in a row on the road following the Colorado game, to Iowa State and Missouri.
a "psychological" team. To a certain extent, this is true. The Kansas Jayhawkers that won the Big Eight tournament were a totally different team than the one that beat Denver here, Dec. 17.
Everyone says the Hawkers are
When Tom Hedrick, director of the KU Sports Network, returned from the Northwestern game at Evanston, he remarked that the attitude of the team was changing. Their efforts were beginning to jell, and the spirit was great.
Then came the two losses on the road. Did they break the spirit?
And that spirit carried the Hawkers through the Big Eight tourney all the way to the top.
Then came Colorado. Did that break the spirit?
It might still be there. The Hawkers have put up strong rallies in each of their last three losses; they just fell short.
Tomorrow night — we'll find out.
KU former All-American quarterback John Hadd is back in town after his first season in the pro football ranks. He will enroll at KU second semester to complete work on his degree.
It appears that Hadl is firmly entrenched as the starting quarterback for the AFL San Diego Chargers. The Chargers traded away their rights to Heisman Trophy winner, quarterback Terry Baker of Oregon State, earlier this month.
