'Big Red ready for KU
By BRENT ANDERSON
Associate Sports Editor
A victory against the Nebraska Cornhuskers would insure a winning season for the 1976 team, now 5-2, and would meet Walker's challenge. KU was 7-5 last season.
In January, athletic director Clyde Walker challenged the 1976 football squad to be the first team since 1961 and 1926 to have back-to-back winning seasons.
Nebraska couldn't care less about Jayhawks meeting their goal. Coming off their first loss of the season, a 34-24 defeat by Missouri, the 'Huskers would be perfectly willing to take it out on KU after the buff tomorrow at Memorial Stadium.
And doing that wouldn't be particularly unusual. The last two times Nebraska (and more than 15,000 NU fans) came to Lawrence, they won. 56-0.
KU DOEN'T have Dave Jaynes this year, nor does it have Nolan Cromwell, who is running to what Jaynes was to passing. Instead, KU will rely on quarterback Scott McMichael, its great running backs, and an interim performance by his defense to win the game.
in fact, the Jayhwaks have managed only nine points against the Cornhoppers since 1971, and those came in the 10-9 squeaker at Lincoln in 1973, when quarterback Dave Jaynes led the Jayhwaks. NU won 55-10 in 1971-60 in 72-54 in '74 and 64 last year.
The KU backfield and offensive line, however, which have teamed for the best running game in the Big Eight, might be missing two of their starters.
The starters, halffallback Billy Campfield and guard John Mascarello, both might not be able to play against NU, KU coach Bud Moore said after practice yesterday.
Both apparently suffered sprained ankles
"UNLESS CAMPFIELD makes remarkable progress in the next days, he won't start and might not play," Moore said.
in the KU-KState game last Saturday, and reinjured them in practice this week. Moore said that it was doubtful that Mascardello, the only KU starter from Nebraska, would be able to start, and doubtful that Campfield would be able to play.
Max Ediger, a sophomore halfback from Topeka, will start if Campfield doesn't, Moore said, and junior Wardell Johnson would back up Ediger.
Moore said he was concerned about whether KU's practice session yesterday indicated that the 'Hawks were ready to battle "Big Red."
"I don't think our concentration was what it needs to be to play a team like Nebraska," Moore said. "It *it* doesn't improve, we could completely run out of the stadium."
"I think the players bounced back before the coaching staff did." Osborn said of the loss. "It was just one of those things. We think of kind we had a better team than Mizoo. As long as we keep the kind of attitude we have, we'll be all right."
NU coach Tom Osborn said his team recovered from its loss to Missouri and went on to win.
Nebraska's attitude so far has been good enough to make it the best defensive team, overall, in the Big Eight. The 'Husker' have the best rushing defense (95.3 yards a game) and the best scoring defense (12 points a game). Their defense against the pass, however, is seventh in the conference and fourth in the N.C. State Moore and KU would have to be able to pass effectively to be able to move the ball against NU.
The Nebraska defense is anchored by its

NEBRASKA'S Vince Ferrago is the leading passer in the Big Eight, and leads the conference in total offense. He has passed for 1,182 yards this season, and has averaged 165 yards a game in total offense, leading Nepada to its 5-1-1 record.

Nu has four of the Big Eight's 10 leading receivers: Dave Shamblin, Bobby Thomas,
Although the "Huskers" running backs have been plagued by minor injuries and the team was "pretty banged up" after their season, they've said his team would be ready physically.
"We might be a little sore now, but we'll be ready to play Saturday," he said.

Jocs win intramural division
By ROB RAINS Sports Writer
It took a little longer than normal to determine the winner of last night's championship football game in the Independent Women's intramural League.
It was Freking who gave the Jocs their first score as well. After arriving late because of a test, she raced 95 yards down the right sideline in the second quarter to tie the score. Lewis had scored a touchdown in the first quarter.
The Joes and Lewis played to 6-6 at the end of regulation, but the Jocs' Gayle Frereking broke a 8-4 second touchdown run on a timeout in overtime to give them a 12-6 victory.
