Buffalo end is back of week
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—(UPI)—Sam Harris, Colorado's gangbuster-type defensive end, headed a banner week of Big Eight line play in gaining the league's Lineman of the Week honor for his pass—rush charge against Baylor's terrific Terry Southall.
It was Harris who spearheaded a relentless rush against Southall that led to the Buffs' 13-7 upset and prompted Baylor coach John Bridgers' post-game comment:
"I've never seen a team knock so many passes off the passer's hand—every time we'd put the ball up that Harris would jump up and knock it down again. I've never had a passer rushed so hard and effectively."
Harris needed such an afternoon to edge Nebraska middle guard Wayne Meylan in the balloting by a panel of Big Eight sportswriters.
Safety Larry Wachholtz. Nebraska's big little man in the Cornhuskers' late-breaking 28-7 win over Utah State, took Back of the Week honors where at least three others played spectacularly enough to win it on most occasions.
Harris got his Colorado mates out of trouble early when he forced a Baylor fumble and recovered it at the CU 35. The Buffs went on to score their first touchdown.
He batted down several Southall passes and caught one before it hit the ground for an interception. When the Bears went to the ground, Harris was there too—registering five tackles.
Meylan, the heart of a stingy Nebraska line that has held two foes to a total of 10 yards rushing, was in on nine tackles.
Four times he threw the ball carrier for losses, blocked a punt, broke up a pass and recovered a
Notre Dame takes top rating spot
NEW YORK —(UPI)—A green for inexperience passing combination of Terry Hanratty-to-Jim Seymour has made Notre Dame a national championship contender and the rest of the nation's colleges green with envy.
Southern Cal, third a week ago, smashed Wisconsin 38-3 but plummeted from third to fifth. Nebraska fell from fifth to sixth following a 28-7 triumph over Utah State and Michigan, a 17-7 victory over California, dropped one notch to seventh.
Hanratty, an 18-year-old quarterback, and Seymour, a 19-year-old receiver, tossed the ball around 13 times for 276 yards Saturday as the Irish smashed Purdue 26-14 and swept in third place in the United Press International board of coaches football ratings.

His blocked punt in the fourth quarter with the Cornhuskers leading 10-7 gave Nebraska a first and goal at the 8.

Wachholtz, a 5-8, 162-pound second team All-America last year, manufactured his biggest contributions last Saturday on a 39-yard field goal that gave Nebraska the lead for good and a 72-yard punt return in the fourth quarter that hiked the Huskers' lead to 22-7.
He also intercepted two passes and averaged 23 yards per chance on five punt returns and the two interceptions.
Sophomore halfbacks Eddie Hinton of Oklahoma and Don Shanklin of Kansas were also spectacular. Hinton netted 88 yards rushing and caught eight passes for 111 yards. Shanklin scored two touchdowns, one on a 69-yard punt return, threw 30 yards for another and set up a fourth with a 71-yard dash.
