Two upsets were included in last Saturday's Big Eight football bill-of-fare including the 27-14 surprise win Colorado hung on the Kansas Jayhawkers.
The Tigers managed to put the shackles on the passing of the Falcons' famed quarterback, Richie Mayo, and came up with touchdown drives of 58 and 61 yards.
Missouri dragged the favored Air Force Academy down to its level and then proceeded to shred the Air Force defense before winging off with a 13-0 victory.
In a non-conference encounter at Stillwater, Oklahoma State, the Jayhawkers' opponent Saturday, smashed Denver 20-12 with key passes from quarterback Dick Soergel making up the difference between the two teams.
Exactly one week after Nebraska had ended the Oklahoma Sooners' 13 year conference winning streak, the Iowa State Cyclones burst the Cornhusker bubble with a 18-6 victory.
Iowa State's Tom Watkins accounted for the two Cyclone touchdowns with gallops of 84 and 32 yards. The remaining Iowa State score was made on a safety.
The Cowboys led at the intermission, 14-0, but the Pioneers bounced back to narrow the margin to 14-12 in the final period before Oklahoma State capped the victory with a last minute touchdown.
Harriers to AAU Meet
Last, but by no means least, Oklahoma smashed Kansas State 36-0. The Sooners, upset by Nebraska the week before, clinched at least a tie for the conference championship with the win, and have only one conference game (with Iowa State) remaining.
Fresh from a team victory in the Big Eight meet, Coach Easton's cross-country squad will tangle with the best in the nation at the AAU meet, to be held this Saturday at Chicago.
Commenting on the Big Eight win Easton said, "Why did we win? Simply because we wanted to more than anyone else did."
Easton credited his team with an all-out effort last week. "Perhaps we had even less material than some of the other teams, but we put out more for what we did have," he said.
The KU coach was pessimistic about Jayhawker chances in the coming AAU trials, pointing out that the KU thinclads may have difficulty handling the four-mile course. "We'll be fortunate to finish in the first three in that one," said Easton of the AAU event.
The major contenders for the AAU crown will be Drake, West Michigan, Notre Dame and Marquette, according to coach Easton. West Michigan is favored to win the meet.
KU has defeated Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas in dual meet competition this season, losing only to the Chicago Track Club.

TV for OU-Army Clash
BONG ISLAND CITY, NEW YORK, N. Y.
KANSAS CITY — (UPI) — The Oklahoma-Army football game at Norman Saturday will be televised regionally, Reaves Peters, executive director of the Big Eight Conference, announced yesterday.
The telecast, he said, will be confined to the regional six-state area.

Soergel Leads Big Eight Passers
Oklahoma State's Dick Soergel clung to his passing supremacy in the Big Eight Conference statistics today despite a strong surge by Colorado's Gale Weidner.
Rv United Press International
The figures show Soergel with 83 completions out of 136 tries for 997 yards. Weidner has 75 of 146 for 943 yards. The 19-year-old sophomore quarterback completed 10 of 17 with three good for touchdowns against Kansas Saturday. John Solmos of Kansas State remained third with 553 yards on 44 of 101 throws.
John Hadl of Kansas fattened his punting average to 45.9 yards with 34 for 1,560 yards to retain the lead in that department. He was fifth in the nation last week with a 45.1 average. Solmos was second in the Big Eight with a 38.5 average.
Tom Watkins of Iowa State again held the rushing leadership with 707
Tiger Backs Out
By United Press International Missouri's 13-0 victory over the Air Force Academy last week was its most impressive performance of the season—but the win proved costly.
Coach Dan Devine announced yesterday that three members of his starting backfield may miss Saturday's Big Eight game with Kansas State. Definitely out of action is fullback Eddie Mehrer, sided for the remainder of the season with a torn ligament in his right knee.
Halfbacks Donnie Smith and Mel West are also doubtful performers. Smith, who scored one of the two touchdowns against the Air Force academy, has a stretched ligament, and West, Missouri's top ground-gainer for the year, is hobbled by a charley horse and hip injury.

yards on 127 carries, followed by teammate Dwight Nichols with 605 on 172 tries. Missouri's Mel West was third with 458 v yards on 103 runs
Top pass receiver again was Iowa State's Don Webb with 22 for 285 yards. Bill Dodson of Oklahoma State moved into second with 16 for 235 and Jerry Hillebrand of Colorado was third with 12 for 196.
Oklahoma State's Tony Banfield headed the scoring count with 66 points, followed by Watkins with 48 and Hadi with 42.
Pat Fischer of Nebraska was the Conference's best punt pusher, returning seven for a 17.9 average. Oklahoma's Bobby Boyd was second with a 16.6 average and Hadl third with 10.9.

AF Blames Rough Slate
KANSAS CITY —(UPI) — "A tough schedule" was partially blamed yesterday by Air Force Academy director Col. George Simler for the Falcons' 13-0 defeat at the hands of Missouri.
"We had been on the road the past three Saturdays against tough teams—Oregon, UCLA and Army," Simler said.
He said, however, that Missouri outplaced the cadefs.
