MU - Navy in Orange Bowl
By John Macdonald
Still feeling the sting of the NCAA ruler across its hands, the Kansas Jayhawks must now sit by and watch the Missouri Tigers, second place team in the Big Eight conference, battle Navy in the Orange Bowl.
The Tigers received the bowl invitation the same day the Jayhawks wrested the league title from them and laid waste their chances of an undefeated season. The Kansas' victory was a convincing one even to the Missouri coaching staff but not convincing enough to change the minds of the Orange Bowl committee.
Even with the loss, Missouri still clung to fifth place in the national rankings. Kansas iumped to tenth.
Missouri's opponent in the bowl classic, Navy, is still stunned after Saturday's victory over Army 17-12. Coach Wayne Hardin said after the game that he knew nothing about the MU Tigers.

John Hadl, Jayhawk quarterback,
was the only KU player to capture
a statistical crown. He finished as
the league's top punter with 40.5
yards on 43 kicks. Gale Weidner,
Colorado passing expert, passed Hadl
in the aerial department.
Missouri held its position as the league's best offensive team with a total of 2,991 yards for the season. Oklahoma, who finished a disappointing 3-6-1 season and fifth in the conference, jumped into second with 2,857 yards. The Sooners edged Kansas who dropped to third with 2,762. KU, however, was tops in passing with 694 yards.
Iowa State's Dave Hoppmann and Tom Watkins dominated the individual rushing. Hoppmann carried 161 times and gained a fantastic 844 yards. Runner-up Watkins gained 688 yards on 163 carries. Bert Coan of KU placed seventh with 488 total yards on 73 carries.

It's not surprising that KU's standout sophomore halfback, Bert Coan, was chosen by the Associated Press as the "Back of the Week." Coan scored two touchdowns and out-
In the balloting for the week's honor, the AP reported that Coan received competition from teammate John Haddl and Mel Melin, the Washington State quarterback who almost directed his team to an upset over Washington.
Tiger coach Dan Devine, too, realized Coan's effectiveness as he picked out Coan's performance as the biggest single factor which led to Missouri's downfall.
