Nebraska falls to the Sun Devils
TEMPE, Ariz.—Nebraska isn't invincible, after all.
The Associated Press
The top-ranked Cornhuskers had their 26-game winning streak snapped Saturday night in a shocking 19-0 loss to No.17 Arizona State on the same field where they won their second straight national championship in January.
Hours:
M-F 9-6;30
F-Sat 10-2
"We're all embarrassed and ashamed ... to go out there and lay a goose egg on the scoreboard," Nebraska quarterback Scott Frost said. "I never dreamed that could happen."
"I'm just so proud of this team and my staff," said Arizona State coach Bruce Snyder, who accused Nebraska coach Tom Osborne of running up the score last year. "This might be the biggest win I've ever been involved with."
The Sun Devils, routed by the Huskers 77-28 last season, recorded three safeties in handing the Huskers their first defeat since losing the 1994 Orange Bowl to Florida State.
It was Nebraska's first shutout since a 22-0 loss to
"They just whipped us," Osborne said. "We didn't generate a good enough running game. We needed a big play ... but we just didn't convert."
Miami in the 1992 Orange Bowl, and its first regular-season loss since dropping
"We just went out there tonight believing we could do it," Arizona State (3-0) offensive tackle Juan Roque said. "The defense did a stellar job of stopping what was supposed to be the best offense in the nation."
Nebraska (1-1) committed three turnovers against Arizona State, which was a 24-point underdog.
Jake Plummer threw for 292 yards and a touchdown and Robert Nycz kicked two field goals for the Sun Devils, who outgained Nebraska 401 to 216.
thought we couldn't come out and do that (move the ball). Against Nebraska, you can't just sit back and wait. We sat back and waited last year and you saw what happened."
"We surprised them," Plummer said. "They might have
The three safeties, more than Nebraska had ever given up in an entire season, typified the Sun Devils' defensive dominance over the Huskers, who had won 37 straight regular-season games.
Nebraska had its best opportunity to score in the first quarter when it drove to the Arizona State 5. But on third-and-3, Damon Benning fumbled a pitch when he was hit by safety Mitchell Freedman, and the Devils' Scott Von der Ahe recovered at the 22.
After moving the Huskers 42 yards to the Arizona State 26, Turman tossed a swing pass to Green, who cut back across the middle and headed for the end zone. But Freedman hit him, forced a fumble and recovered near the 5.
Nebraska's other opportunity came with the game long decided, after backup quarterback Matt Turman replaced Frost with 4:17 left.
"We have more time to prepare for Utah," he said. "Until we got to see (TCU) against Oklahoma, we didn't really know about them."
"We expect to play well out at Utah," he said. "We've known for a long time this was what the schedule was going to be like. There are no excuses."
But it doesn't matter to Mason how much time the Jawhaws have off.
"It's a lot easier when you play week-to-week," he said. "You start to lose focus with all that time off."
Kansas junior running back Eric Galbreath said the Jawhayers are eager to play.
Texas Christian, the Horned Frogs had played just one game. Mason said being able to see more film of the Utes in a longer period of time should work to the Jayhawks' advantage.
Cowboys face slump in early season
We've got to see (Utah) for four games."

The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — Troy Aikman has experienced the good, the bad and the ugly of Dallas Cowboys football.
Mason
He has been on a team that won just one game and quarterbacked three Super Bowl champions.
So, he's not ready to declare the defending Super Bowl champions dead and buried. But he doesn't like the trend he has seen developing in the first quarter of the NFL season.
Aikman was limping around the locker room with a sprained ankle yesterday, courtesy of the Buffalo pass rush in Sunday's 10-7 loss that
"This team is still hungry to win," Aikman said yesterday. "We've faced a lot of adversity over the years and we have to fight through adversity again. But I can tell you this, we desperately need a win. If we don't get one soon, we can pack it in."
dumped the Cowboys to a 1-3 record. No team has ever rallied from a 1-3 start and won a Super Bowl.
delphia, was puzzled by the Cowboys' poor play, particularly on offense. He had three interceptions.
"I can't answer the question why we can't run the football," Alkman said. "But it all comes down to execution. The offensive line is facing a lot of stunts and twists up front. For some reason the offensive line is struggling. We're all struggling."
Emmitt Smith has averaged only 3.3 yards per rush and scored just two touchdowns. He got only 1.7 yards per attempt against Buffalo and suffered bruised ribs. Smith, a four-time rushing champion who got only 25 yards against the Bills, won't miss any playing time.
At a nearby locker, Smith was shaking his head. "We're not doing a lot of little things that we've done in the past," Smith said. "We just have to get back to the basics. Whatever changes we make, we have to get them done quickly."
Chiefs have Super Bowl potential
Bv DAVE GOLDBERG
AP Football Writer
Dallas is in trouble No surprise there.
No surprise there.
Neither Green Bay nor San Francisco will go unbeaten.
And Kansas City is still Kansas City. The Chiefs aren't pretty, but they find waws to win.
Carolina, no matter how many times Bill Polian and Dom Capers chuckle at the notion, is a legitimate plavoff threat.
The NFL has sorted itself out quickly after nearly a quarter of the season. There's less parity, more haves, more have-nots.
A capsule look:
NEC
Super Bowl potential: Green Bay and San Francisco despite losses.
Playoff potential: Minnesota, Carolina, Philadelphia, Detroit, Dallas, Washington.
You can probably forget the rest, including Atlanta, a playoff team last year that's getting just what any team with Jeff George at quarterback deserves — a me-first attitude. Start with the "expansion" team.
Offensively, the Panthers used the experience of Steve Beuerlein, who probably is a better quarterback for a big game than the injured and inexperienced Kerry Collins. Defensively, they put constant pressure on Steve Young, who consistently defeated Harris Barton, San Francisco's best offensive lineman.
"Last year, I know everyone must have thought we were a fluke," said offensive tackle Greg Skrepenak, one of the many free agents who has turned Carolina into a playoff threat. "But now we're 3-0 and we beat San Francisco. I think people are starting to look at us and say 'Wow.'"
The Panthers' 23-7 win over the 49ers Sunday was not a fluke — Carolina is 10-4 in its last 14 games.
Super Bowl potential: Kansas City, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, San Diego, Buffalo, Denver.
The offensive line's age may be showing; Emmitt Smith keeps getting banged up and Jay Novacek probably won't be back.
Playoff potential: Miami, Houston, New England.
Dallas, meanwhile, gets Michael Irvin back in a couple of weeks, but not before a Monday night game in Philadelphia. If the Cowboys lose it, they'll be 1-4 to the Eagles' 4-1. That is not an easy deficit to overcome, particularly for a team whose coach is as passive as Barry Switzer.
AFC
The Vikings are decent, not as good as the Packers. But Green Bay, 0-5 in Minneapolis under Mike Holmgren, seems to disintegrate when it gets within sight of the Metrodome.
Minnesota's 30-21 win over Green Bav?
The 49ers were looking at the kind of defense they rarely see — Capers' Pittsburgh-style blitzing from a 3-4 alignment. Age, compounded by injury, has caused problems for San Francisco on the offensive line. The defense is good despite a rare off-day, and Steve Young and Jerry Rice will remain Steve Young and Jerry Rice.
With six defensive starters over 31, this is a team that's playing for this year, not a few years down the line. But with Polian in charge, the Panthers probably will be good then, too.
The Kansas City Seithel Agency is presenting a Career Informational Night.
The sleeper: Houston, which has no home-field advantage but perhaps the best young coach in the game. Jeff Fisher, a Buddy Ryan protege, pays attention to offense, too, and doesn't shoot off his mouth a la Ryan. Chris Chandler has finally blossomed into a solid NFL starter and Eddie George might win another Heisman if the NFL gave them out.

Denver. It's hard to get excited about a defense that's improved by adding Bill Romanowski and Jumpy Geathers. But it's certainly playing better and John Elway has the running game he never had — Terrell Davis has moved into the elite class of running backs.
HAIL WHAT?: Bill Parcells has the best grimace in the game. So it was kind of fun to see the look on his face when Jacksonville hit two — count 'em, two — Hail Marys against his Patriots.

The plays contributed to 432 yards passing by Brunell, but they didn't contribute to a win. Adam Vinatieri kicked a 40-yard field goal 2:36 into overtime to ...
The Colts keep claiming nobody gives them any respect.
Whatever, they're one of a half dozen teams that gives the AFC more depth than the NFC, if not as much strength at the top Green Bay 42, San Diego 10 last week. Put Indianapolis, Kansas City and Denver at the top for now.
Assuming Jim Harbaugh continues to play as he has for the last year, the Colts may be the favorite. Kansas City's defense is better, but Steve Bono isn't. The Chiefs may live on the edge during the regular season, but it's hard to survive that way for 19 games.
Jimmy Smith on the last play of the first half, gave the Jaguars their first touchdown on the way to erasing a 22-0 deficit. The second, with the score 25-25 at the end of regulation, came down in the arms of Willie Jackson on the 1-foot line.
who? Not me. I think they're one of our most solid teams," said John Butler, Buffalo's general manager.
Denver?
Carolina (3-0) at Jacksonville (1-3). It was supposed to be the Expansion Bowl, but you can hardly call it that when the Panthers are 10-9 lifetime. The Jaguars are a more expansion-like 5-15, but they're home and they catch Carolina coming off that emotional win over San Francisco. The Jaguars can be competitive.
Minnesota (4-0) at New York Giants (1-3). The Vikings also are coming off an emotional victory against what was supposed to be the NFL's best team. No matter what they say, it's letdown time on the road against a young team that needed a win, no matter how sloppy, to give it some confidence.
A dangerous game for the Vikings.
LESHON WHO? Going into Sunday's game between Arizona and New Orleans, Leshon Johnson had 97 yards in a three-year career, including minus-2 last season and four yards this year.
Make Parcells smile?
Noway.
