Kansas Battles the League's Newest Member Saturday
The Kansas Jayhawks will officially initiate Oklahoma State Cowboys' football stadium, Lewis Field, into the Big Eight Conference tomorrow. The game will be the second league contest for KU's hosts and their first home game of the season.
Oklahoma State is the possessor of a one win three defeat record as compared to KU's three-win, one-loss, one-tie mark.
Officials are expecting an attendance of nearly 30,000 for this Homecoming battle. If this mark were reached, it would be a new attendance record for the KU-OSU games played either in Stillwater or Lawrence.
Last week Oklahoma State's head football coach Cliff Speeagle had this to say about his team's performance against Houston in a losing effort, "We played one of our finest ball games but just couldn't take advantage of our final scoring opportunity. I think this team is giving more effort than any other team I've coached here."
Head Kansas coach Jack Mitchell also feels the Cowboys of O-State are a fine team, describing them as, "just as good or better than last year; better balanced in that they have a better running attack and are not dependent entirely upon passing; they have a greatly improved kicking game."
Offensively the Cowboys leave much to be desired. Only in their unexpected outburst against Tulaa in their only win have they displayed any real scoring threat. But they do have some fine individual performers who are capable of skidding past the Kansas defense at almost any time.
Dillard Leads Cowboys
The rushing leader for Oklahoma State is 200-pound fullback Jim Dillard. Close behind is Tommy Jackson the 190-pound left halfback.
The other halfback is 185-pound Lomnie Buchner.
The starting quarterback listed by the Cowboys is 160-pound Jim Elliott. He is able backed up by the team's leading passer, John Maisel.
The top reserves in the backfield are Eob Adcock and Rick Buck.
The Cowboys will outweigh KU in the line.
OSU Sports Big Line
The OSU ends, however, are not much bigger than those of Mitchell's team. Blanchard Reel at 187 pounds and George Walsted at 190 pounds are the ends for O-State.
At tackle, a KU weakspot, the Cowboys are exceptionally strong. One of their best performers is 220-pound left tackle Gary Cutsinger. The other tackle is even bigger, 230-pound Harold Beatty.
Playing opposite Kansas' diminutive but outstounding guards will be
David Wilks, 215 pounds, and Rodney Repogle, a 210-pounder.
The OSU center is Billy York who weighs just over 200 pounds.
There is very little sacrifice in size among the O-State reserve linemen. They are at least as big or bigger than the Jayhawks' starters. Among the better second team linemen for the Cowboys are Jim Frazier and Frank Parker at tackles.
One of the most important Cowboys tomorrow will be Dave Hannah This 200-pounder is presently leading the conference in punting, just ahead of KU's John Hadl.
Oklahoma State operates out of
the straight, slot and winged T (similar to KU) and shows a preference toward running away from the slot side. The threat of the pass seems to be more important than the pass itself.
Defensively, they use a five-four and do a lot of stunting and gapshooting.
An annual feature since 1946, the KU-OSU series began in 1923. Kansas has won 13, O-State five games. The Hawkers won here last year 28-14 but lost in 1958 6-3.
