Jayhawkers Score Most Points, 48 to 26 Against Oklahoma Since Texas In 1947
In its best played game of the season the KU Jayhawkers won a game of statistics even if not in score. Though the University squad came out on the small end of the 48-26 score against the highly-favored Oklahoma Eleven Saturday, they piled up more points against the Sooners than any team had in two years. Not since the
In its best played game of the game of statistics even if not in so came out on the small end end of the favored Oklahoma Eleven Satur against the Sooners than any year University of Texas beat the Sooners with a 34-14 score in 1947 have the Oklahomans allowed an opponent to gain more than 20 points.
Coach J. V. Sikes was pleased with the showing of his team against the Sooners. They weren't expected to win, but neither were they expected to do as well as the 26 points scored indicates. After the past season's 60-7 defeat on the home field, the Jayhawkers weren't expected to make any kind of a showing at Norman. That they did indicate a whole-hearted effort by team members and calculated judgment on the part of the coach.

Before the game, Coach Sikes reasoned that the Kansas eleven would have little chance against the heavy-weight Oklahoma line, and that straight, obvious passes would be easily intercepted. So he decided to try deception—have the quarterback look like he's going to run, then throw a pass, or run the limit if the way is clear. Coach Sikes prepared for this attack at the George Washington game by putting both Bogue and Gilman, twin passers, in the backfield.
Under this new set-up Jerry Bogue was placed under the center with Dick Gilman, No. 1 quarterback, at fullback in the center of the backfield T. Forrest Griffith, fullback, dropped to left half and Bud French played at right half.
The new plan of attack depended so completely on deception that Johnny Amberg and Willie Modrcin, the squad's running strength, were used hardly at all.
Coach Sikes also had a word to say on the tackling of the team. He complimented Dean Wells, sophomore halfback, and Chuch O'Neal, junior end, for being in on so many plays. The Jayhawk tacklers were hitting the ball carriers high and getting their arms hard around them, taking less chance of losing their man.
Bill Schaake, sophomore end, was the leading pass-receiver. He captured five passes for a total gain of 50 yards.
Forrest Griffith, senior back, was credited with a minus score in yardage, but Coach Sikes said he thought Griffith ran the two hickoff returns in his best form for the season. The run netted a total of 80 yards, one of them for 60 yards.
The Oklahoma line was alert and aggressive, but possibly a little overconfident before a team which they downed 60-7 in their last meeting. They held Kansas to 51 yards gained on the ground. It was the deceptive aerial attack which scored for the Javahaws.
The Sooners played a six-man line most of the game, with two linebackers moving in and out to make it almost an eight-man line at times. After the Kansas passing attack opened up in the second half, the Oklahoma line developed into a five-man forward wall, leaving the
backfield free for pass-interception. The only casualty on the K.U. squad was Cliff McDonald, defensive right halfback, who suffered a fractured right wrist. He will be out for three or four weeks.
