TRIO OF STARS WIN
THE OKLAHOMA GAME
Brilliant Showing of Invincible Three Cinches Contest For Sooners
OWEN'S MEN USE OPEN PLAY
Forward Passes Responsible For Many Gains—Reeds Goes Through Line Almost at Will
(By Landon Laird)
Oy lander.
To the wonderful playing of Claude Lee, Raymond Court-wright, and Elmer Capshaw the Kansas Jayhawkers our defeat at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners at Norman Friday. The wonderful Oklahoma backfield was the whole show for the Sooners. The line held well, but the line was doped to do that; Johnson, the midget quarterback, ran the team well and showed excellent headwork in the pinches, but he is a first-year man and has his years of stardom to come. To the three great backs Oklahoma owes its victory.
Sooners Used Open Play
Kansas played good ball. Handi-capped to no inconsiderable extent by the absence of Strothers from the game, an early injury to Greenlees, and Detwiler's charley horse, the Jayhawkers nevertheless fought hard and died hard. The team showed more "pep" in the last three minutes of play during the preceding three quarters of the game, but they went up against a good team, a team trained on the defense from the Minnesota Shift, a team which opened up a new style of football to which the Jayhawkers had a hard time adapting themselves.
The Sooner game was open. Forward passes were relied upon to bring the most scores to the Norman men. Combined with a fast defense when running back punts, the passed spelled victory for Oklahoma.
Reeds was decidedly the individual star of the game. The big fullback, unjustly barred against Missouri, went around the Jayhawker ends time and again for big gains, shot through the line for first downs whenever needed, and practically ran the team from his position behind the line. When the Oklahomaans are being pushed back by the Kansas line, or when they had five yards to make and then down to 17, the team turned to Reed for their inspiration—and he enristured it. At times he run the team entirely. Johnson, the quarter, would give up his position and fill in on the line. Reeds, playing 15 yards behind the ball at full would shout the orders, and the other 10 men would execute them.
Standing six feet two inches, and weighing 180 pounds, the big back loomed up above all of the rest of the players, and during every minute of play he would form a barrier in the depths of a mass play at center, or skirting the ends, with head tucked low, off for a 20 yard run.
Capshaw weighs but 146 pounds, and Courtwright tips the beams at 150. Their lightness, which seems sufficient to bar them from the strenuous game, was more than overbalanced by their speed. One on their shoulders field the two players could not be stopped. Capshaw was a mere flash when he went through the north goal for the Sooners' last score.
Needs, Capshaw, Courtwright, Stars
Capshaw and Courtwright were able assistants of the Oklahoma star.
During the first quarter they carried the ball, and Reeds ran interference.
In the second quarter Reeds lugged the pigskin himself—twice for a touchdown. Johnson starred during the third quarter and Capshaw "came back" in the final period.
Both teams made a striking appearance when they trotted out at the beginning of the first quarter. The Jayhawkers were big and confident, the Sooners light and hopeful. Kansas warmed up in the usual style. The team impressed itself on the minds of the Oklahoma roots as being confident, perhaps a little too much so.
Kansas Too Confident
Strothers, his sprained ankle heavily bandaged, limped out on the field to try his hand at kicking. It was no use; his first attempt was a failure. The ball never bounced nor bend his foot and there was no chance for him to get in the game.
At the sound of the whittle Reeds lifted a 60 yard place kick down the field, Greenlee standing on his own line recovering the ball. The shifty halfback raced 25 yards back up the field before downed. Kansas shift-
TEN ANSWERS TO THE QUERY.
How Did It Happen?
No. 1. Claude Reeds, Oklahoma full back. A few of his accomplishments: He ran the team when Johnson got in a tight pinch; he kicked 55 yards on every punt; kickoffs averaged 60 yards; on broken field running he shook off three sets of tacklers on his first touchdown; he broke up at least half of the Jayhawker forward passes playing alone behind the line; running interference for Capshaw and Coffright wristed the trio, and never to evade the tackler who sought to evade his interference; on more than one occasion, he climbed over, slipped under, and burrowed beneath the heart of the line from three to fifteen yards gain.
No. 2. The Sooner defense formation. Playing ten men in the line, and leaving Reeds alone to cover the entire backfield and play safety, Owen evolved a system of play against which the Minnesota Shift, much touted as it was, proved useless.
No. 3. The absence of Strothers from the Jayhawker lineup. Wilson did all the putting for the Lawrence aggregation, and did not average more than 35 yards on each kick. Reeds averaged from 50 to 55.
No. 4. The injuries to Greenlees and Detwiler. Deprived of the services of the two regular backs, the Jayhawker could furnish no relief for Sommers and Martin, the two substitute backs, and Detwiler, handicapped by a charley horse, together with Greenlees, and his injured leg, were practically of no use to the Jayhawker coaches.
Jayhawkers The Oklahoma interference. On each backfield play the Sooners would run three men ahead as interference for the man carrying the ball. If Reeds carried the ball, Courtwright, Johnson, and Capshaw, would run in front of the big fullback, each with his hands on the other's hips, and the play was so fast that the Jayhawkers couldn't catch the man with the ball from behind.
No. 6. Elmer Capshaw and Raymond Courtwright. These two men, playing right and left half, were second only to Reeds in carrying the ball, and running interference for the Sooners. Combined with the fullback, and Johnson, they would form quartet players to form the greatest backfield seen in the Missouri Valley this year.
No. 7. Kansas lack of practice. The snow which fell in Lawrence the greater part of last week handicapped the Jayhawkers severely in practicing for the big game. With but one workout since the contest with the Kansas Aggies the week before, and the rest of the week in grimmum play and chalk talks, the Crimson and the Blue had probably the least amount of practice that had ever been afforded them, the week before a big game.
Nos. 8 to 10 inclusive. Claude Reeds.
eu; the play which has defeated teams like Missouri, Drake, and the Kansas Aggeris began work and the Oklahomaans looked it over curiously. The rootsher half expected it to break up the Sooner defense, it had played the other team but playing on the line, leaving Reeds alone, twenty yards back to play for a punt, Owen, the crafty Sooner coach, killed the play.
Wilson was forced to kick, 35 yards out of bounds. The Sooners quickly lined up, and began their series of splendid end runs, guarded by wonderful interference. They advanced the ball to the Jayhawkers' 35 yard line. Courtwright in the main lugging the oval, but there Kansas held and recovered the ball on downs. Kansas lost it, the Sooners recovered, and so both teams see-sawed the pigskin up and down the field during the play. Kansas gained a little, and the coaches' hopes were raised. Oklahoma however soon recovered possession of the ball, and as Courtwright, standing on his own 40 yard line, raced down the field for a 15 yard gain, the whistle blew, and the first period ended.
First Quarter. No Score
Okahama scored soon after play was resumed. A great forward pass, Reeds to Courtwright, gained 26 yards, Reeds dripped around right end for 10, and Okahama had scored on the Jayhawkers, the first straight touchdown that had been chalked up unjustly the team this year.
Aided by great runs by Capshaw and Reeds, Oklahoma carried the ball down to the Kansas' 20 yard line, and a moment later the "Big Train" walked through the Kansas defense for another score.
Kansas Made Lone Score
Then the Jayhawkers woke up.
Then the Indians scored.
