Love started off well by having a 40-yard field goal attempt blocked. It was the kind of performance Jayawk fans had come to expect. But the defense defended it if it had had a decent placekicker. Love, however, made this first mistake in fulfilling the part when he booted an extra telephone. "I JUST HOPE I can work on being consistent in my kicking," he said. He then lined up in the fourth quarter for what was to become a game tying 47-yard school record field goal. As the ball sailed through the uprights, the dubious mance of "placecking specialist" fell, at least one second later, shoulders of the 6-foot2, 180-pound Lowe. "I'll work this week on kicking against a rush to jet ready for Saturday's game with the Raiders." Barely a month ago Love was replaced in the KU-Haskell junior varsity game when he was placed on the bench for long way since then, kicking a 30-yard field goal against Kansas State in the next junior varsity game and winning a position on the team. He also scored two vices in a 6-3 victory over Missouri Oct. 26. 2. of the two most important factors to a placekicker—the holder and the rush by the defensive line—were never more important than were last week when he prepared for OSU. "The holder's the key to about 50 per cent of the success of a field goal." Love said. "They have to be quick and able to set the goal for the field goal try without any slips."

VI 31-4266 kicking is the rush of the defensive line. "I haven't been able to work under a rush very much this year," Love said. "But this past week the varsity's been putting the rush on pretty good. It has helped me a lot to prepare myself to kick the ball in pressure situations like that." Love missed in his first 'pressure situation', a 40-year attempt in the first season. "The fault on that kick was very mine." Love said. "On field goal attempts from within the 20 yard line, I'm supposed to set the tee up towards the middle of the field. Outside the 20, it's supposed to be directly behind the enter. But on this one I set the tee up because the map was a little wobbly and had to stutter step when the ball wasn't set up in time." Love said he attended KU on half a football scholarship and half a baseball scholarship. Since Love posted a 10-2 record last summer as a pitcher with an American Legion team, it doesn't look as if the baseball half will go to waste next spring. Love said he wasn't blaming anybody, just explaining how many things could go wrong. By GARY ISAACSON Assistant Norbert Editor And if Love can continue to earn the job as KU's answer to its placekicking woes, the football half may not be considered a waste either. "So close and yet so far." That's how University of Kansas head football coach Don Fambrough described the Jayhawks' 1973 season. The Hawks tied Oklahoma State, 10-10, Saturday before a Parents' day crowd of 40,000 and scouts from Memphis and Liberty bowls in Memorial Stadium. The tive gave KU a conference record of 2-1-1 and 2-1-2 mark for the season. “If we had three more points wed ‘were undefeated,’ Fambrough lamented. The 'Hawks' two losses have both been by one point, 28-27 to Tennessee and 10-9 to Nebraska. While it has been a frustrating season for the Hawks, with the improvement the team has made. "YOU LOOK back at it," he said, "and consider the teams we played, we team." came from and the effort it took to get here, we have done pretty well." sports KU was picked seventh in Big Eight preseason polls. Considering the attrition rate the 'Hawks have suffered, it is surprising KU can still field a team. KU lost two more players Saturday. Linebackers Steve Towle and Oddi Weilner suffered knee injuries and underwent surgery yesterday morning. Flanker Bruce Adams and quarterback Dave Jaynes also suffered injuries. Adam's hand was hit by a helmet during his first reception of the game, and it was thought to have caused suffered blurred vision. But Fambroth said yesterday that Jaynes was all right. KU has losed four defensive starters in two weeks, and the team is left with only two experienced linebackers, Dean Baird and Mike Gardner. IT'S TOUGH, there is no doubt about it," Fambridge said. "Our defense is playing a lot of ball. But the most discouraging thing is our offensive inconsistency. We've got to be able to run to pass, and we haven't been done it." The KU defense again forced the opposition to turn over the football Saturday, recovering three OSU fumbles. But the offense couldn't get untracked. The teams batted evenly in the first quarter, although KU had a chance to score when defensive tackle Mitch Sutton recovered a Cowboy fumble at the OSU 49. The Hawks drove to the OSU 23 but stalled as Mike Love filed goal attempt was blocked. On the first play after the block, Cowboy quarterback Brent Blackman fumbled, but a Jayne interception ended that chance. A quick pass gave Carson his next series because of his vision problem. EARLY in the second quarter, freshman Tom Krattli, who replaced Jayne, fumbled at the KU 20, and the Cowboys took six plays to score, making it 7-4. Late in the quarter, OSU marched from punt and put 45-yard field goal from Abby. Down 10-0, KU got with two minutes left in the half and Baynes, back in the game and mixing his plays beautifully, moved the 'Hawks 78 yards in seven plays. He scored in the end zone from 22 yards for the score. The score at the half was OSU 10, KU 7. The score remained the same until Weidner picked up a fumble by Cowboy fullback George Palmer at the 50. The 'Hawks drove to the OSU 21, but Jaynes was thrown for a nine-yard loss on a third down play. Find out why.

The tie was preserved when Daigle muffed a 29-yard attempt with five seconds to play after the Cowboys had marched 68 yards to the KU 13. "THE COACHES had stressed keeping my head down all week," Love said. "I kept my head down on that kick. When I looked up it was going through the uprights." OSU picked up 271 yards on the ground, mainly up the middle, against a KU defense that was ranked fourth in the conference against the run. Next week KU faces Colorado, probably the most unpredictable team in the conference. The Bucks upset Missouri two weeks ago but were trounced 28-16 Saturday by Nebraska. Fambrough said that this made the Bucks hard to scout. "They just had more people inside than we did," Baird said. "They were just a lot of them." "THEY LOOKED like real world beaters in the Missouri game," he said. "Then they lost yesterday. I just hope they are down next Saturday." The Buffs have a 2-3 conference record and are virtually out of the race for the Big Eight crown. But, Fambrough said, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. 'They've got big, strong backs very similar to Oklahoma State's,' he said. '"Their formation is similar to Iowa State's, and that makes it tougher on us." Fambrough said he might move some freshman up to the varsity to help fill the pool of freshmen. Rick Kowatch will be moved to linebacker, a position he played last spring. Despite the injuries, Fambrough said, KU won't let down. "A LOT of people don't realize the tremendous pride that this team has," he said. "We have to defend tactics to defensive end, and he played a super game. This team won't give Baird, who is playing with an injured shoulder. echoed Fambroub "It hurt us a lot when we lost Steve (Towle) and Odell (Weidner)," he said, "but this is a good football team, and we aren't going to quit." ★★ Kansas Oklahoma.
