Strong KU Offense Faces Stiff MU Defense
By Roy Miller (Sports Editor)
GARY DUFF
Two-time hero . . .
It wasn't much more than a year ago today people started speculating on the KU football team's success in 1963.
The common conclusion then was KU would have a strong offense and weak defense. That appears to be the situation as the Jayhawkers end the season against Missouri here tomorrow.
A record crowd of about 46,000 persons is expected. Kickoff time is 1:30 p.m. in Memorial Stadium for the 72nd meeting between the Jayhawks and Tigers, the oldest collegiate football rivalry west of the Mississippi.
"FUMBLES AND BREAKS will mean the difference," Coach Jack Mitchell said in answer to a question after his team's final practice yesterday.
"Missouri is better defensively," the KU coach said. "Usually, the defensive team has the edge."
The Javhawks are as much as a
KU ranks fourth offensively among the nation's major college teams. Gale Sayers, who needs only 26 yards to become the first player in conference history to rush 2,000 yards in two seasons, leads the nation in rushing this week.
four-point favorite to beat Dan Devine's Tigers.
SAYERS MISSED Wednesday's practice because of flu, but was back in action yesterday.
"He's weak, of course," Mitchell said. "But, I think he'll be all right for the game."
"I feel okay. I'll be ready," Savers said.
Gary Duff, KU's place-kicking specialist, has been instrumental the last two years against Missouri in freshman and varsity games.
**AS A FRESHMAN**, the Salina junior kicked a tying field goal against the Tigers at Columbia. Duff kicked the tying field goal last season on the same field in a varsity game. But, Duff may not
get his third pressure-packed opportunity this year. Mitchell said this week Mike Johnson, sophomore halfback, would probably kick if any field goal situations arise.
"Duff's in a slump like a baseball player," Mitchell said. "He hasn't even been kicking well in practice."
Besides Sayers, the throng will be watching intensely, rival quarterbacks Gary Lane of Missouri and Steve Renko of KU.
Both Lane and Renko are sophomores. Renko has been cited as some observers as the best quarterback in the Big Eight. Lane leads the conference in total offense.
THE GAME WILL be the last as Jayhawkers for eight seniors. They are Ken Coleman and Armand Baughman, both starting fullbacks; Jay Roberts, end; Fred Exline and Pete Quatrochi, centers; Phil Doughty, defensive quarterback; Karl Sartore, tackle, and Tony Leiker, slot-back.
MIKE JOHNSON
His turn tomorrow? . . .
