Pepper's anguished cry
Pepper Rodgers buried his face in a towel after Colorado completed a 40-yard pass to the KU 11 in the final minutes. On the next play, CU tailback Bob Anderson twisted into the endzone to hand the Jayhawks a 17-14 Homecoming defeat.

(By United Press International) And then there were two.
Missouri and Nebraska emerged from Saturday's Big Eight football warfare tied for the lead. Two others, Oklahoma and Kansas State, had entered the day at the top with the Tigers and Cornhuskers.
In a head-to-head confrontation, Missouri spotted Oklahoma 10 points, then pummeled the Sooners, 44-10, with Terry McMilan inflicted the damage.
Oklahoma State returned home after three straight road encounters. The Cowboys, greeted
KANSAN Nov.10 1969
by 35,700 homecoming fans, also overcame a deficit and stunned Kansas State. 28-19.
Saturday's results left Missouri and Nebraska alone at the top with 4-1 conference records. Both teams must play their last two games on the road. When the two met earlier in the season, Missouri won, 17-7.
Missouri would seem to have the best of the schedule. The Tigers finish at Iowa State and Kansas, two teams that have not beaten any other Big Eight eos. Nebraska, however, finishes at Kansas State and Oklahoma.
Nebraska kept pace with Missouri by defeating Iowa State, 17-3.
Throatful of buffalo: Colorado shades KU
By MARY ARNOLD
Kansan Sports Writer
Saturday was an ideal day for KU's Homecoming—clear skies, warm weather, two queens and 37,000 fans.
Just as beautiful was the scoreboard as the Jayhawka clung to a 14-10 lead in the waning minutes. Then with 2:29 remaining, Colorado's Bob Anderson wriggled 12 yards for a touchdown.
And it became another ugly day.
KU discovered that a spoonful of pepper just wasn't enough to make the Buffalo go down as Colorado squelched the Jayhawks, 17-14. Thus, Kansas suffered its fifth consecutive Big Eight defeat and its season ledger slipped to 1-7.
Anderson's TD blast culminated a 59-yard scoring drive in three plays. Fullback Ward Walsh had cracked seven yards before quarterback Paul Arendt pegged a 40-yard pass to Bob Masten. Masten rambled from the KU 44 to the 12 with Arendt's short pass.
Defense starred
Until then, KU's defense had stolen the show. Al Jacobic had blocked a punt by Colorado's Dick
Roberts, and linebacker Emery Hicks scooped the ball at the CU 6 and lumbered across the goal line. Bill Bell's conversion gave the Jayhawks a 7-0 edge in the second quarter.

Fumble revived hope

a go-ahead opportunity.
