but finds KU middle guard Allen Jacobic instead. Although the K-State signal-caller completed 25 of 48 passes, the Wildcats bowed to the Jayhawks 38-29.

Huskers' 16-14 loss to Missouri, a team which beat Oklahoma State 42-7, and so goes the vicious circle.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.—This has been an unreal football year in the Big Eight Conference. Not that the games have been exceptionally close like they were last year, when less than a touchdown was the average between winning and losing, but the reverses in "form" have been unbelievable, somewhat psychedelic.
Confusing? Just wait till the untangling is tried in the scoring round-robin to figure who might have the edge this week, when the Conference's top offensive team, Kansas (leader in rushing, 312.9, total offense, 454.9, and scoring, 39.9), meets the league's top defensive team, Missouri (best in rush defense, 117.1, pass defense, 111.3, total defense, 229.0, and scoring defense, 11.7).
So unpredictable has been the nature of the Big Eight game this year, it has boiled down to basically a matter of a team playing its best football every time out or a loss is imminent. And sometimes the best hasn't been good enough.
Somewhat indicative of this topsy-turvy year is the virtual three-way tie in the championship race involving Kansas and Missouri (both 5-1) and fast-rising Oklahoma (4-1). A key, too,
Or try to solve what might happen when the Big Eight's No. 2 offensive team, Oklahoma, takes on the Conference's No. 2 defensive team, Nebraska, in a nationally televised game.
could be that each league member has recorded at least one Conference win for the first time since 1959.
But for an inside look, consider this circle. Hottest team in the Big Eight right now is Oklahoma, winner 27-23 over Kansas and 28-14 over Missouri, but a 41-27 loser to Colorado, which was a 27-14 loser to both Kansas and Missouri and a team which first beat Kansas State 37-13 before losing 22-6 to Nebraska, a team which was socked by Kansas State 12-0 in the Big Eight's only league-game shutout of the season. Kansas State was beaten by Iowa State, 23-14, a team which was beaten by Oklahoma State 26-17 after the Cowboys had been beaten by Nebraska 21-20, which was a tighter game than the
