TOM NOWATZKE All-Big Ten Fullback In ’63 Berry Able to Play By BOB HAG1ST Associate Sports Editor Bob Berry will be able to play against Indiana. That’s the word from Oregon head coach Len Casanova Will Berry start? “That de pends on the situation,” says Cas With that encouraging news the Webfoots are off to Bloomington for their second encounter in history with the Hoosiers. No one is likely to forget last year’s game at Multnomah Sta dium in Portland Oregon won, 28-22 when Berry passed 30 yards to H. D Murphy for a touch down with 11 seconds left in the game. With either Berry or Mike Brundage at quarterback, the Ducks will rely on passing for a good share of their offensive yardage. Berry is one of the na Emerald Estimates Oreaon over Indiana bv 2 By OUR PRESTIGEOUS PROGNOSTICATOR Talk about the morning after tile night before! Last week’s prediction results were not easy to take—eight correct choices, seven upsets (?), and one tie. At least we were able to salvage more than half of the games. A weekend like the one wit- ' nessed six days ago does pro vide an opportunity for our in famous forecaster to show how humble he can be. Besides, just about any team in the nation can beat any other team of any given day. In addition, even the best indi viduals can have a bad day. And if no other excuse will j suffice, we can always resort to that age-old proverb—“never quit while you’re ahead; if you do, you’ll never be able to gripe like heck when you get clob bered.’’ Yes . . . well, on to the slaugh ter house. Oregon over Indiana by two. Call it an educated guess. Call it optimism. Call it hope. But we think the Ducks can take the Hoosiers, even at Bloomington. Oregon State over Stanford by three. The Beavers are hoping to dam up anybody’s chances to get to the Rose Bowl. And we think they can do it by beating Stanford. But the Indians are not going to bow easily. Washington over UCLA by four. The Huskies have won two in a row. UCLA dropped a game to the Air Force last Saturday. The fact that the game is being played in Seattle also prompts our choice for UW as the win ner. Washington State over Texas Tech by one. The Ducks caught a glimpse of the strengths of the Cougars. In our estimation, Texas Tech and the people of Lubbock, Tex., will see more than just a glimpse. California over Utah by six. In their last two games the Red skins have racked up a total of 88 points, but their opponents were Texas Western and BYU. Utah will meet the test against the Bears and Craig Morton and flunk. Idaho over Utah State by four. Utah State has also run up some high scores—wins such as 76-0. 41-0, and 51-7. But their oppo nents were not of the quality that Idaho possesses. The Van dals will put a large crimp in Utah State’s scoring punch. Nationally speaking . Notre Dame over Michigan State by six. The Irish had a close brush with defeat last Sat urday. The Spartans, however un willing they may be, will prove to be the scapegoats for Notre Dame. Alabama over Georgia Tech by four. The Crimson Tide are un beaten and untied in eight games The Engineers have a 7-1 record, and will be quite anxious to top ple the ’Bama team. Such will not be the case, however. Arkansas over Southern Meth odist by ten. The Razorbacks are leading the Southwest Confer ence. The Mustangs are bringing up the rear in the same race. Ar kansas will add one more game to their unbeaten and untied rec ord. Nebraska over Oklahoma State by 11. The Cornhuskers, rated number four in the nation, are Rainwear by Forecaster ♦♦♦ ♦♦♦ A complete selection of men’s clothing and accessories with the student in mind The Man’s Shop 979 Willamette 344-9011 Next to the Fox Theatre | unbeaten and untied. They’ve scored 215 points to their oppo nent’s total of 44. AH we can do is wish Oklahoma State the best -—they’ll need it. Texas over Texas Christian by seven. TCU has won its last three games in a row, ana may prove to be more of a threat to the Longhorn 7-1 record than predict ed. But if the Texas offense can not win the game, then their defense will. Michigan over Iowa by three. Iowa won their first three games of the season, then dropped their next four. The Wolverines pos jsess a 6-1 overall reeord. An up [set feeling is in the air, but the Hawkeyes will have to be at their best. Ohio State over Northwestern by seven. Ohio State’s loss to Penn State was a shock, to say the least. But the Buckeyes still lead in the Big Ten race. The Wildcats will need to beat the Buckeyes physically and mental ly—a tough job with the memo ries of last weekend still fresh in the minds of the OSU ballplay ers. Louisiana State over Mississippi State by ten. This contest will be a matter of too much against too little. The Tigers have a 5-1-1 sea son record. Their offense is not overpowering, but their defense is strong (46 points allowed in seven games). It should be a bleak Saturday for Mississippi State. tion’s leaders in passing, although his inactivity last week brought him down a few places. Hoosiers Pass, Too Indiana also has a passing at tack and will probably give the* Oregon defense one of its tough est games all year, ltich Badar, Indiana’s quarterback, is also one of the nation’s leaders in pass ing. Casanova said that he felt In diana’s passing game would prob ably be more dangerous than their ground game. Besides Ba dar the Hoosiers have an excel lent end in Bill Malinchak, ac cording to Casanova Les Palm is back off the injury I list and will play against Indiana. Palm is a defensive halfback who is averaging one interception per game. His return should help the Duck secondary. Ron Martin and Tim Temple are the other Duck defensive halfbacks. ☆ ☆ Last Year: 1)028 Hoosiers 22 Oregon quarterback Bob Ber ry took the snap from center. He faded back, looking for a receiver in the end zone Then he threw. The pass looked too high but suddenly Duck halfback H. D Murphy leaped into the air and snagged the ball, falling into the end zone. Oregon had beaten Indiana. 28 22 That was the way it was last year in the most thrilling game of Oregon's season It was a seesaw battle all the way. The Hoosiers moved into a 13-6 lead in the first half as full back Tom Nowatzke and quarter back Richie Badar led the way Oregon’s score came on n Berry pass. Mel Renfro led the Ducks into a 14 13 lead but Indiana came right back to retake the lead. Berry threw his second of three touchdown passes to put Oregon in the lead but Nowatzke put the Hoosiers ahead again on a 26 yard field goal by Nowatzke That set the stage for Berry’s game winning pass. The Oregon defense won't he able to relax against the Indiana ground game either. The Hoos Iers have All-Big Ten fullback Torn Nowatzke going for them. Last year the Ducks stopped No watzke and are hoping to do it again. Up front on the Oregon defen sive unit are linebackers Harry Cartales and Tim Casey, ends Hob Haskins and Oliver McKen ney, guards Jack Clark, Cary Da vis or Doug Inman, and tackles Ancer Haggerty and Jim Koll mann Kollmann missed last week’s game with an infected el bow. Casanova classified the Hoosiers ns an explosive team which has had hard luck this year "They have hurt themselves with fum bles and penalties," he said. Could Have Top Hecord With a little more time they could have had a real good rec ord, said Casanova They could have tied Ohio State with one more play and lost, 21-20, to Iowa as the game ended with In diana on the Iowa one yard line. If Berry or Brundage are go ing to be able to pass, the Duck offensive line will have to handle Hoosiers that are bigger than they are. Lowell Dean, Bat Mat son, Dale Wilson, Mark Richards and Dave Tobey have been more than capable this year The Webfoots will be hoping for a dry day so ends Corky Sul livan and Hay Balm and (Hanker back Steve Bunker will be able to run their pass patterns with out added difficulty Halfback Dennis Keller and fullback Dick Winn will be the other starters in the backfleld.
