8 Monday, September 22, 1975 University Daily Kansan Outlook brightens after KU stuns Kentucky Staff Photo by DAVID CRENSHAV Laverne Smith scored winning touchdown Saturday By ALLEN QUAKENBUSH Associate Sports Editor Time after time after time, Bud Moore has stressed that good defense wins football. Saturday's contest with the University of Kentucky proved him right. one Jayhawk defense, with its back to the wall much of the time, came through with clutch play after clutch play to enable KU to unset the Wildcats. 14-10. "I feels mighty good," Moore said of his first victory as a collegiate head coach. "I'm very thankful for the players. They are so nice and out and play like they can and set a winn." "IFTS A GOOD FEELING, but we can't dwell on to dell it. This game was extremely important to us. But the one coming up (Oregon State) is even more important. We have a tough chore on our hands this week. We have to start worrying about that one." But Saturday's win didn't exacly come easily. Not until Kentucky was called for roughing Jayhawk wunter John O'Reear with a strikeout, but it was Moore able to breathe a little easier. For most of the second half, things looked gloomy for the Jeyhawks. The offenses were one-offs and the defense was ineffective. make a first down until midway through the final quarter, and that was by penalty. But that penalty began the eventual winning drive. With 8:97 remaining in the game, Kentucky attempted an end-around play to tight end Vin Hoover. But the big tight end fumbled and KU safety Chris Golub recovered on KU's 43. "THE END-AROUND the dumbrest call of the day," Kentucky coach Farcu纠 said. "We had field position and the ball. It was the best one, and I fumbled. I can't believe I made that call." On the first play following the fumble recovery, quarterback Scott McMichael attempted to pass to tight end Jim Michaels. The ball fell incomplete, but he and the Jayhawks for pass interference and the Jayhawks into wildcat territory at the 46. Kentucky was socked with another 15-yard penalty for a personal foul on the next play. The Chargers halftack Laverne, Smith, playing with bruised ribs, rambled for 11 yards and Norris Banks for four more, setting up an end in the down on a 16-yard sweep around right end. "Laverne made a couple of big runs when we needed them," Moore said. Mike Butler Defense smothers'em Paul Van Saun By YAEL ABOUHALKAH What a difference a week makes. Just ask Rick Kovatch, or Mike Butler. Or Paul Van Saund, Or Chris KU's defense was tough in last week's close loss to Houston. Sienna was often tough enough. So it impresses Saturday's U.S. opponent. Wade Phillips, defensive line coach, saw what was happening. In fact, he had one of the best seats in the house. Phillips was above the field, watching the Kenyan defense as he prepared for defensive instruction to KU coaches on the sideline. "I THINK THE LOSS LAST week somehow helped us." Phillips said. "It made the players realize how important it is to study the film. They spent more of their free time in school, and we were weekly, seeing what Kentucky could do. I know it helped." "Last week we had so many inexperienced people in there. But on Saturday, the enthusiasm was better and the players knew where to go after they'd been doing it in practice all week long." The KU players also gave some pats on-the-back to the preacher they went through for the Wildcat game. "We were very well prepared," linebacker Kovatch said. "We had covered everything in practice. They didn't show us anything we didn't expect. We had great team confidence. I don't think we were worried about anything they could throw at us. After we held them a couple of times, we financed we could do it every time." KU'S DEFENSE WAS SUPERLATIVE in Saturday's upset. It had to be. The Jayhawk offense hemmed and hawed for the second straight game, keeping the Kansas defense out on the field a long, long time. Kentucky pushed its way up and down the field, amassing 246 yards of total offence, an eye-popping 213 on the ground. But the Jayhawk defensive players had the ability to stop the Wildcats when they got close to paydirt. "We just controlled the line of scrimgime," Butler, a defensive end, said. "When they got close, we just let Terry (Beeson) walk for the running back to come to him. It was head-on collision time then. "THEIR COACHES THOUGHT they could run up the middle against us. But we were better prepared. We were waiting for them this week." Of RU's ability to stop the Wildcats in clutch situations, Phillips said, "When it got down to it, we just had to put our best players in there even if they were tired. And they rose to the occasion." Butler admitted last week that he hadn't played well against Washington State. That thought spurred him on "I was more already prepared for this game," he said. "I wan't planning on having two games back to back like Tackle Paul Van Saum had mixed feelings about the team's performance. "We had a lot more emotion than we had against Washington State," he said. "I can't put my finger on why Locker Room Talk we had *Everybody* seemed to pull together and work as a team. Both Van Saum and safety Chris Golub admitted that the long stays on the playing field took their toll. WE HAVE TO GET MORE disciplined. Why have them run 10 plays when we can be stopping them in three? We knuckled down when the going got tough, but that shows there's reason for improvement." "We got tired, but we sucked it up in the fourth quarrel," said his kind of a mental thing, too. We were really tired. Golub said, "I was getting tired toward the end. But I didn't really feel it that much." Saturday's play spoke well for a brighter outlook for the whole season, the players stressed. Van Sam said, "They (Kentucky) were pretty good. But they don't compare to other teams in the Big Eight." "Maybe now we're adjusted to the new coaching staff," Kouneh said. "I expect as the season goes along we're just going to get better and better." --game of the year. The win broke Nebraska's win streak at five games.

The TD was set up on a 78-yard run, then the team, who was playing his first game at running back, since his sophomore year in high school. "Eric came with an awkward big play. Move said, 'I made a heck of a difference.' Mike was so激动的. But in the final analysis, it was the Jayhawk defense that made the biggest difference. Three times the Kentucky offense penetrated the KU's 10 yard line. And three times the Wildcats went away empty-handed. "The defense was out of this world." Moore said. "They came up with some ideas." KENTUCKY MANAGED TO put three points on the board on a 48-yard field goal by John Pierce with 5:41 left in the third quarter, where the field goal attempts were wide of the mark. KU then rallied to get the lead back on Smith's sween. But the defense was forced to rise to the occasion one last time. The defense finally yielded with 11:09 left in the game.
