Even ER can't stop Mizzou center
The senior center tied the school record with his 42nd consecutive start in Saturday's 62-31 victory over Texas Tech. When the No. 21 Tigers play at Colorado Nov.8, he'll leave Rob Riti (1996-99) and Mike Bedoskv (1990-93) behind.
A. J. Ricker's iron man streak at Missouri was put to the ultimate test.
The Associated Press
Not bad for a guy who left a hospital emergency room two days before the Texas Tech game.
He'sbeingmodest. The work of Ricker and the rest of the line helped Missouri rush for 469 yards, the most in Division I this year. Brad Smith ran for 219 yards, only 17 yards shy of the NCAA record for a quarterback, and Zack Abron added 139.
"I had a 24-hour virus and it hit me pretty hard," Ricker said. "I ended up going to the emergency room and had a little doubt.
Luckily, that bug left my body and I was able to start. I'm still a little weak, but I guess I did all right."
Missouri (6-2) steamrolled Texas Tech even though the Red Raiders knew what was coming. "I can count on one finger how many different plays we ran probably in the second half." Ricker said. "We found a weakness and
"Every time we ran a counter they were calling it but that makes it even better because you can look at them and smile and be like'Hey, you know what we're running but we're still executing the play."
So the 42nd straight start became something memorable for Ricker, on the preseason list for the Rimington Trophy given to the nation's top center. He inherited the center job from Riti, one of the players with whom he's tied.
we just exploited it.
"Forty-two straight, it seems like a century," Ricker said. "It means a lot, especially considering the guys I'm tied with.
Besides the illness last week, Ricker said the streak has never been in leopardy.
Win or lose against Texas Tech, Missouri would have gotten a breather during this bye week. But it was easier for coach Gary Pinkel to give the players off until Thursday to heal minor injuries and concentrate on academics after the performance propelled the Tigers back into the Top 25.
The victory also made Missouri bowl-eligible for the first time since 1998 with four games to go against opponents that are a combined 14-19.
Texas needs big victory Saturday
By Clint Hale Daily Texan via U-Wire University of Texas-Austin
AUSTIN, Texas — After losses to Arkansas and rival Oklahoma, Texas' season begins anew this week with the first of four games that will determine the fate of the Longhorns come the postseason.
And while games against Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and Texas A&M are to follow, the sole team
on the Texas ballclub's collective mindset is Nebraska.
Texas is still holding out for an at-large BCS bowl bid, and a win over Nebraska would undoubtedly help the Longhorns' cause. But head coach Mack Brown said it all boils down to one facet of the game.
The Huskers, coming off a 28-0 victory against Iowa State Saturday, head into Saturday's contest with the Longhorns ranked No.12 in The Associated Press poll and still holding an outside shot at a berth in the national title game at season's end.
"We can't turn the ball over like we did against Oklahoma and expect to beat this team." Brown said. "We have got to hold on to the football."
Questions are prevalent surrounding this Texas football team. Are the Longhorns tough enough to win the big game? Can they stop the run?
WHITTEMORE: QB overlooked as contender
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
The two I can make a case for Whittemore against are Schaub and Losman.
Matt Schaub, in six games, has thrown only nine touchdowns compared to seven interceptions. His quarterback rating is nearly 30 points lower than Whittemore's, and his team has the same
helped resurrect a football program that has been in the Big 12 cellar since, well, the conference's beginning.
record as the Jayhawks. There is nothing that puts him clearly ahead of the Kansas signal-caller.
J. P. Losman has a rating just a tenth of a point behind Schaub's. While Losman has thrown for 23 touchdowns, he not only has 10 interceptions, but his biggest scarlet letter is a putrid 3-5 record. This for a team that was the preseason favorite to win Conference USA.
For anyone who knows their college football, you'd think that the committee simply picked these
names before the year started, and added Texas Tech's B.J. Symons later on because of his arena football-like numbers. I realize it would be highly unlikely for Whittemore to take the award if up for it, but he at least deserved a nomination. For anyone who ever thought these individual awards were legit, this is a glaring example that the unsung heroes sometimes deserve more recognition.
VOLLEYBALL:
Correa is out

who has missed the last four matches with a knee injury.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
The 'Hawks have gone 3-1 in her absence, but could still use her 3.88 kills per game.
Bechard said she was improving, but not enough to be back in the lineup.
Junior Lindsey Morris and senior Jordan Garrison have filled the hole Correa has left, but they will have to step it up even more to knock off the Wildcats.
Kansas has lost 17 straight matches to K-State, and trail the all-time series 48-31.
Match time is set for 7 p.m. in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
Volleyball notes
Beachard is four victories away from reaching 100 for his career.
Kansas is 4-1 at home this season against Big 12 opponents.
QUARTERBACK: Whittemore out for now; the search continues
Edited by Dave Nobles
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
"Nothing seems to bother him," Mangino said. "I don't want to make him out to be some sort of wunderkind. It's anxiety that comes with that, but of a lot of the kids that I've been around that have been put in this position, I think it'll affect him the least because of the way he handles himself."
Of the quarterbacks at Mangino's disposal, Barmann most resembles Whittemore's ability to make plays with his feet and throw the ball on the run. After Whittemore left Saturday's game, neither of his replacements were able to work on the run and make plays with their feet. Whether it's the mobile Barmann or a pocket passer like Luke or
Nielsen that gets the nod for Saturday, the receivers think the offense can succeed.
"I think it will work either way," freshman Charles Gordon said. "Having a mobile quarterback is a plus, but either way we'll be all right."
The receiving corps, as well as the rest of the offense's supporting cast, have taken more of a leadership role at practice as well this week, trying to make up for their leader being sidelined.
"We've talked, and we know we've got to step up our play," Gordon said. "If the ball's thrown in our area, we've got to make plays. If we do that, it'll take away some of the pressure off the quarterbacks."
Another positive in coach Manango's corner is that he has
the experience of having dealt with the same situation a year ago. While he said he was not going to take any different of an approach to this year's situation, he knew exactly how he would tell his players to deal with the obstacle in front of them.
"One of the reasons we were able to get off to a respectable start this year is because we learned from last year." Mangino said. "The initial shock now has worn off But now we've got a whole week to rally our team and make it clear to them that we need more than one player to win in this program and to build this program."
Kansas Football Notebook
■ Players of the Game — Mark Mangino announced the players of the game from Saturday's loss at Kansas State. On defense,
sophomore linebacker Nick Reid garnered the honors, and sophomore linebacker/long-snapper Kevin Kane was named for special teams. For the first time this season, coach Mangino did not select a player of the game on offense.
Watkins still missing in action Junior defensive tackle Travis Watkins will once again not suit up for the Jayhawks as they travel to face Texas A&M. Watkins has been out of action since the end of training camp with a broken right foot, and his status as to whether he will return this season is still uncertain. If he does not play, he can apply to the NCAA for a medical hardship, and obtain another year of eligibility.
