Griffons beat JV team

Missouri Western beat the junior varsity football team in an error filled season finale yesterday at Memorial Stadium, 21-7.
Sports Writer
Missouri Western's Jim Gladney put the Jayhawks in a hole early when he returned the opening kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown.
Missouri western's defense put pressure on KU quarterback Brad Miller all afternoon. In his second game at quarterback, Miller finished with six completions in 19 interceptions and three interceptions. Miller had 86 yards rushing because of several quarterback sacks.
KU junior varsity coach Donny Wilson said Miller had to play against a tough defense, but that wasn't the only reason he had a rough day.
"It was a combination of the pressure they kept on him and the fact that Brad couldn't find the open guys." Wilson said. "Inexperience was probably the big reason he had trouble finding his receivers."
Wilson said Missouri Western's team was the biggest j.v. team he had seen all season. Many of KU's players played both offense and defense, factors combined to tire the Jachwacks early.
"We hurt ourselves." Wilson said. "We were capable of scoring more points. I was really confident that we would catch up in the fourth quarter, but some of our guys were playing both ways. They were really tired. The kids on both teams really played hard."
Wilson said that because only 23 players suited up for KU, some played positions they had never played before, such as freshman Tom Kubala. He played center after freshman Scott Fiss was forced out of the game with an injury.
"A lot of guys are playing varsity this week because of their performances in j.v. games." Wilson said. "Also, there are injuries on varsity and junior varsity. Everything combined to make us short today. We did not have a lot of people."
KU's top rusher was freshman Tony Harvey, who had 79 yards in 18 attempts. He was one of the few bright spots on a day in which little went right for the Jayhawks.
Typical of how the day went was a series in the third quarter, when KU was trailing only 12.7 KU was forced into a punting situation deep in its own territory. Junior punter Jerry McGraw was knocked to the ground, giving KU a first down after a call of roughing the kicker
The Jachawks then moved the ball close to midfield, but the drive stalled and KU was
Missouri Western fumbled the ball on the return and sophomore Stuart Parham recovered the ball for KU on Missouri Western's 37 yard line. However, the Jayhawks weren't able to capitalize on the break.
Miller was sacked for 18 yards on the first play from scrimmage after the fumble recovery. The Jayhawks were forced back to their own 23-yard line on the next play, and an intentional grounding call put them on their own 17.
KU also suffered a loss of down on the penalty, making it third-and-55 yards to go for the first down. The third down play failed and KU was forced to punt again.
Missouri Western blocked the punt and recovered the ball. The Griffons went on to score a touchdown, making it 18-7.
OU's Bradley, OSU's Monger selected as players of the week
Wilson said finishing with a loss was a hard way to end the season, but he added that many good things were accomplished by the team.
By United Press International
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Oklahoma State linebacker Matt Monger yesterday was named the Big Eight Conference Defensive Player of the Week on the strength of his 18 tackles in a 34-6 road victory over Kansas State.
Monger also had a quarterback sack and broke up a pass. Saturday.
"Matt has unbelievable balance," Oklahoma State defensive coordinator Paul Jette said. "I can't tell you how many
times he was knocked down and came back to make the tackle."
back to Oklahoma quarterback Danny Bradley was selected the Big Eight's Offensive Player of the Week on the strength of his two touchdown runs in the Sooners' 49-7 victory over Missouri.
Bradley sat out the previous week's 21-11 upset loss at Kansas with a sprained ankle and torn ligaments in his passing hand but returned at less than 100 percent for Missouri. He rushed 11 times for 53 and completed 5-of-18 passes for 99 yards.
Loss of Anderson might alter KU offense
From Staff and Wire Reports
Head football coach Mike Gottfried said yesterday that the loss of tight end Jeff Anderson for the rest of the season because of a knee injury might change the look of the offense this week against Nebraska Anderson, a junior, was injured early in Saturday's 28-27 victory over Colorado.
"We'll fool around with a few more formations," Gottfred said. "We'll also fill in Mark Parks and Brad Wedel." Parks, a redshirt freshman, caught two passes against Colorado Saturday and has caught four this season.
Gottfred said freshman linebacker Johnny Diggs, who injured his knee three weeks ago, hasn't recovered from the injury and may have to undergo arthroscopic surgery. Safety Kevin Harder is also suffering from a knee injury but will try to play on it.
Quarterback Mike Norseth, tailback Lynn Williams, and the entire offensive line drew praise from Gottfred for their play in the Colorado game. Norseth was named the offensive player of the game, linebacker Pleaset Player and kicker Dodge Schwartzburg was named the top special teams player
In Lincoln, Paul Miles, the Cornhuskers*
junior backup I-back reinjured his shoulder during practice and is out for the Kansas game. Freshman I-back Keith Jones will replace Miles on the traveling squad.
Wingback Shane Swanson and monsterback Brian Washington also missed yesterday's practice with injuries. I back Jeff Smith, who bruised his ribs against Iowa State, was able to practice.
"There are a lot of similarities between Kansas and Iowa State." Nebraska coach Tom Osborne said. "They primarily are interested in throwing the ball and use a lot of sets. However, I think Kansas is more capable of being a better running team."
