Mondav. November 13, 1978 University Daily Kansan Jayhawks lay goose egg; Tigers hatch big victory By LEON UNRUH Sports Editor COLUMBIA, Mo.—It was the ninth verse of an old song, but Saturday the melody had been changed. The Jayhawks hummed along to their ninth defeat in 10 games, losing 48-0 KU's problems lay in its offense—which, despite having its most aggressive day of the season, failed to score any of the five times it moved inside the Missouri 28-yard UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The result was Kansas' first shutout in a year and an afternoon of thrills for MU's share of the 64,263 fans gathered under dusky skies. "We were beaten by a better football team," KU head coach Bud Moore said. "They were ready to play, and anytime you have that combination . . ." THE MU fans were cheering its defense, its running backs and its second victory. Wilder, a sophomore, gained 160 yards and scored twice. Gant, a senior, set a school record, four touchdowns, and ran for 134 yards. The defense held Kansas to 76 yards rushing, but gave up 206 harmless yards through the air. The 11 MU running backs accumulated 46 airs against the league's best scorer. Most of KU's offense came from rather erratic passing. p passes were completed (26). Kansas' big runner, however, was junior Tim Jones, who got 46 yards on 11 carries. His longest run, and the Jayhawks', was for 16 yards. And the big show was James Wilder and Earl Gart, first and second-string running backs. Each ran only 15 times, but both palmed until almost the end of the game. STARTER HARRY Sidney hit half of his 16 tries for 121 yards, Kevin Clinton, who left the game early with an arm injury, hit nine times and scored four in *For Clinton*, missed on his five attempts. both Sydney's and Clinton's longest barracks were intercepted by quarterbacks who The Jayhawks had a good chance to take the lead early when Jerry Calyrio forced Mu quarterback Phil Bradley to fumble, then fell on the ball at the MU 27 with 9:30 seconds left. He continued nowhere, and Mike Hubach's 44-yard field goal attempt was a country-mile short.

Then he pitched to Wilder, who scooted down the pitch and gave him with 4:06 remaining in the first quarter. BRAIDLEY TOOK the next one in from four yards just before halftime. The drive was set up by an MU interception of Harry Svindye's scrambling pass. Gant scored his first touchdown on an 11-yarder at 12:27 to play in the half and scored six more points two minutes later. A point after attempt missed on the fourth TD. After Kevin Clinton's pass was intercepted in the waxing minutes of the second half, Widner ran 40 yards up the middle to make it 34-0.

KU's offense, which used three quarterbacks, and, at times, an all-freshman backfield, advanced as far as the MU 7 in the game. The team failed to complete passes ended the drive on downs. "WE WERE trying to throw the football too much," Moore said. "That's my fault. But we were down by quite a bit at that time, too." "We haven't made any improvement in a good while. That's obvious by the scores." He said there were no problems with morale. "I think the players gave an honest effort," he said. "There were a number of reasons we were beaten, which I won't go into here, but what we're going to see who's been following the football team." Moore was asked whether queries about his contract had anything to do with morale issues. "I'm talking about injuries, everything we were talking about all year long," Moore said. "The contract has nothing to do with it." Center Mike Wellman, who had been winned to teammate the last three years, said, "I felt like a big kid." "THEY TOOK the momentum early and just kept it. I felt we were badly outplayed." It wasn't that the Jayhawks didn't know what Mission would try to do, defensive end Jerry Calvich said. It was just that the Tigers did it too well. "We knew they were a good offensive club," he said. "But what can you say about it?" "I can say all the things other people have been saying, but it doesn't make it any Staff photo by BRUCE BANDLE Offensive tackle Bob Whitten and Dave Fletcher, members of KU's offensive line, drag down Missouri linebacker Eric Berg.

What began as a strong bid for a collective finish among the top three teams dwindled to an individual eight place finish by Dave Bauer, a member of UCLA's only representative alumnel. Colorado, winners of the Big Eight crown, won with 25 team points. "It looked like we'd do it for a while," KU coach Bob Timmons said. "We were naming the team."

Other KU runners and their order of finish were: Paul Schultz, 21; Tim Tays, 30; Brent Swanson, 31; Kendall Smith, 35; Jeff Hayes, 44; and Tim Schmidt, 57.
