Jayhawks learn rebuilding lesson from masters
By GENE MYERS
Sports Editor
Dill wasn't rebuilt in a day. It took 10 years.
Pitt taught that lesson in football architecture Saturday in Memorial Stadium. The students
The Panthers showed that KU, a team that has won seven games in three seasons, could not be rebuilt in one game, the surprising season-opening tie with the Oregon Ducks.
The Panthers, who went 10 years, from 1963 to 1972, without a winning season, showed that their seventh-ranked team was a hostile defense and mobile offense better than Kansas.
"YOU'RE LOOKING at a 10-year program with Pitt," R. head said in an embrough said. "It was a long, almost alma jaw."
KU was ready for 60 minutes of football with the national contenders, but the team was ready for 30 minutes. After the first quarter, KU led 3-0. At the half, Pitil only led 10-3.
In the second half, the Panthers would
but in the first point if their receivers
would have held a two-point advantage.
Quarterback Dan Marino threw 39 passes and completed 18. Two went for touchdowns. Most of the slipped off fingerpits, bounced off added chests and fell through open arms.
"THE SCORE COULD have been 100 to nothing and I wouldn't have criticized my players." Fambridge said. "I didn't criticize the team we're going on to have a program like that."
"But we have a ways to go."
The Jayhawks, 24-0 losers last year to Pitt, are improved, according to the Pitt players and coaches.
"Kansas is much improved," Coach Jackie
Herrill said. "I have a lot of respect for them.
"They are going to win some games this year. They are well coached, but our defense did well last season."
KU's rushing game gained four yards on 32 carries (an average of 4.5 inches a carry) Saturday, and negative 17 yards in last year's game with Pitt. But the passing game had 76 this year. The KU defense was six points tougher, but 10 yards of total offense weaker this time.
THE PITT DEFENSE, called the best in the
nation by many, including KU, shackled
golden gilded, Frank Seier and Kwai Wan.
Frank Seier and Kwai Wan.
Seurer and Bell both started, were relieved and then returned. Seurer, hurt by the 38 mph wind and rambling Pitt rush, completed 5 of 13 for 40 vards.
Steve Smith, last week's starter, replaced Seurer late in the second quarter and then was replaced by Seurer at the start of the fourth quarter. Smith went 3 of 8 for 42 yards.
"Quarterback is like pitching, when it's not working you try something new," Fambrough said. "If we would have had 10 quarterbacks, the results would have been the same."
Seurer, who was woozy several times when he defended himself off the artificial turf, said that he had been "bullied" by
"I think Fambridge made a real good choice," they were hitting hard and I wasn't used to the tide.
BELL, WHO GAINED 69 yards and a reputation in the season opener, needed 14 carries to make 27 yards. Bell said he was with himself and the team but not disillusioned.
"They just kicked our ass." Bell said. "They kept pushing us back and I'd just say, 'Here we go again.'
"We were not really ready for them.
Something was not ticking."
"We're a better team than last year," Sydney said. "When we not if together we'll be tough."
said. "When we put it together, we are on DEFENSE. KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough. On the special teamity team, KU was tough." (47.7 average and set up KU's only score.)
The California kids were not the only KU players Pit picked on. David Verser, All-Big Eight flanker, had one catch for 32 yards. He rested the of game in a defensive straight locket.
Harry Sydney, offensive captain, gained 14 yards on five carries and Larry Kemp, Sydney's backup, gained negative one yard and was caught in the end zone for a safety.
The Pitt punter, Rick Ryan, had nine kicks for a 34.5 average. Two wobbler into the wind, a 18-yarder and a 19-yarder, started KU's first two inside the pitchist. Pit 50. But both times, KU had to punt.
But on Scribner's third punt, a high hanger,
Bryan Horn hit Pit's Terry White as he attac-
ted the goal. The fumely fluffed and Augusta Kyle recovered for KU.
THE SCORING THREAT sputtered until Pitt was called for a personal gift to give KU first down on the 11-yard line. The drive stalled on the end of the field. Kallmeyer kicked his first collegiate goal.
KU's last chance to score came on its next possession. But Bell fumbled the ball at the Panther 25 on the first play of the second quarter.
When the ball rolled away, so did KU's victor; when it returned, not another first down until the third quarter.
"We had no offense at all," Fambrrough said. The Pitt defense was responsible for 99 percent of hits.
"I thought they were the best defensive team in the country and I'm going to keep thinking about it," she said.
JAYHAWK NOTES: THE KU junior varsity
player, Jamie Hunt, was named North

KU's JV coach, Bruce DeHaven, will take about 45 players to Stillwater.
Brett, Leonard, Royals all fall short

KANSA CITY, Mo.—George Brett didn't raise his batting average to 400, Dennis Leonard didn’t win his 200 game, and the third largest hitter in the league is the Royals play like pennant winters yesterday.
The 41,329 fans who die the Oakland A's turn 11 hits and two Kansas City errors into a 9-8 victory over the Royals, champions of the American League West.
Leonard, who clinched the pennant for the Royals Wednesday night with a three-hitter, gave up eight hits and three home runs in seven innings.
OAKLAND PITCHING continued to be a thorn in brets' side. Brett is batting about 20 against the Rockies.
Brett of a second home run. Brett is now batting .394.
Brett, who started the game hitting .396, hit a home run in the first, but flipped out his next two trips to the plate. In the eighth inning, he hit a fly ball 128 yards up the field. Dwayne Murray scaled the wall and robbed
"It was probably the first time I was rooting for a guy to get a hit against me," Oakland manager Billy Martin said. "I was hoping it would fall in for a hit. I hope he hits, 401. I really
"We have haven’t been pitching him well, we’ve just been losing it," he said. "But has not had good enough luck against us."
OAKLAND PITCHER Mike Norris, who recorded his 21st victory and 22nd complete game, said that he threw Brett "all good pitches."
Royals' fans did not agree. Norris was booed for throwing three straight balls to Brett during one at-bat. He bounced one pitch to Britt in the plate. Another was near his head.
Royals' manager Jim Frey said Brett was not under a lot of pressure to hit, 400.
"It's hard to maintain 400, but he isn't feeling pressure," he said. "The media attention has not gone away."
FREY SAID Oakland, which finished last in 1979 had improved this season because of its
pitching staff and especially because of Norris and Matt Keough.
"These are two reasons that they're playing better this year than the last two years," he said. "Norris had the fastball, curve and screwball without it. Nothing else. I couldn't tell what in the hell it was."
Norsis gave accolades to the A's new manager. "Billy's done a heck of a job," he said. "We may be only one game over .500 but it feels like 800 ball."
Frey said the Royals had two goals as they began their final road trip of the season tonight
"I'd like the pitchers to get in a good groove," he said.
"And we have to hope there are no injuries to
people who have recently don't want people
crashing into the walls."
FREY SAID that Leonard pitched a good game despite the loss.
"Dennis pitched well in the second half of the game," he said. "He made a couple mistakes."

The Brown, who had lost their first two games and their offense, won 20-13 with a time-consuming final quarter drive. With the score tied at 13, the Brown recovered a fumble on the Kansas City 13 with 9:02 left in the game.
Cleveland—The Cleveland Browns did a complete turnaround yesterday, and the Kansas City Chiefs continued to stumble around.
THE BROWNS' OFFENSE barely even saw the ball in their loss to the Houston Oilers last Monday night. After the loss, Cleveland quarterback Brian Sipe indicated that he was not pleased with the game plan, which had the Brownss attempting to establish a running game. He wanted the team to return to the successful wide-open offense of 1979.
Kansas City, which is 0-3 for the season, got
victory with 44 remaining and a trailing 20.
Coach Sam Rutigliano apparently took his advice. The Brown's first play yesterday was a 12-yard pass completion to tight end Ozzie Newsome. Sipe completed 25 passes in 36 attempts for 295 yards and a pair of touchdowns.
"The game plan was to go in on the fast side of the pitch, but he just executed better than the last two weeks."
ONE OF THOSE executing better was Heisman Trophy winner Charles White, whose total offense for the first two games was 18 yards. White, Cleveland's first-round draft pick this year, scored two touchdowns, picked up 94 yards rushing and 100 receiving.
"Their use of Charles White didn't surprise me," Marv Levy, Kansas City coach, said. "They lost the game, I don't think it's logical for them to do lot of analyzing in the midst of the frustration."
"I don't have any cool analysis. We just lost."
Next Sunday, the Chiefs play San Diego at Arrowhead Stadium.
Young wins meet
Young, who was tied with Shelley Hamlin in 5-under after three rounds, started strong, took the lead and never outgrew her. Her final total was 3-under 24.
OVERLAND PARK (UP)—Three leadoff birdies, bolstered by two more on the back nine, helped Donna Capron Young to a 4-under 69 yesterday to win the Kansas City LPGA Classic at Brookside Country Club.
