Football team adds WSU to schedule
By TRACEE HAMILTON Sports Editor
The Jayhawks' football motto for the fall is "One Step Closer," but KU really is taking one step closer to home.
Wichita State has become another one of a series of additions to the football schedule designed to regionalize KU's football opponents.
The athletic department announced last weekend that Wichita State would travel to Lawrence in 1982, '83 and '84 to play the Jayhawks in Memorial Stadium. The league stated contests with UCLA in '82 and '84 and with Arkansas State in '83.
TRIMMING THE team's travel budget is one method the department has used to offset the rising cost of equipment and athletics on the schedule is a reflection of that idea.
This year's schedule is partly a result of dissolving a contract with Tennessee," Athletic Director Bob Marcum said. "At that time that made news, but we have been contacted by Stanford, Oregon State and UCLA to dissolve contracts. The West Coast schools are moving in that direction.
"We've done the same in men's
basketball. We've had to say that unless there is an increase in the guarantee we can't participate. We've already moved in that direction. KU going to San Francisco or Miami to play is almost a thing of the past."
Marcum also said his department was considering adding other schools close to Kansas to the schedule.
"WE HAVE BEEN negotiating with the University of Iowa," he said. "We have also talked with the University of Iowa to negotiate, just conversation."
The 'Jayhawk's' more regionalized schedule includes Tulsa and Arkansas but also draws the Pac 10 Oregon Ducks and Kentucky from the East Coast.
The Golden Hurricane of Tulsa is picked to finish first in the Missouri Valley Conference by most preseason polls, and neither Marcum nor Head Pembroke are brushing off the Oklahoma school as an easy opponent.
"We're meeting them at a time when they're at the top," Fambrogio said. "I'T of Oregon the same as the University of Oregon we really feel Oregon is strong team. They best wash Washington last
year and tied Southern California. I really feel we are playing good teams." Marcum said Tulsa was definitely underrated.
"They're a good football team," he said. "They've got fine personnel and a coach and they are a leader in training and they're lightly would be making a mistake."
"We'll practice two or three times under the lights before the game," Fambrigh said. The practices will include one at Kansas City's Stadium.
Fambrough made sure the squad didn't take the Hurricane lightly. The Jayhawks started preparing for Tulsa during their first practice, and they will also prepare for what will be their only night game of the season.
The schedule, though lacking the luster of Pittsburgh and Syracuse, two of KU's opponents last season, pleased sophomore tailback Kervin Bell.
1981 Big Eight Football schedule
"It's not the toughest schedule, but it's not easy either," he said. "Tula won eight games last year. Oregon's won six." And Kentucky will be competitors.
"I think we can go 4-0 in preseason play. But we'll one game at a time. Everyone remembers the Louisville game and what happened there."
