RUNNING ATTACK SLUGGISH
Jayhawks crow about aerial game
By MARK BOROWSKI
This Saturday brings together
.n another clash between two strong and
mighty football conferences. It's the
battle between the Big Eight and the
Big Ten. Who will the Big Eight dare to
orest send up against Bo's boys who don the
Maize and Blue?
s Well, it could be powerhouses
Oklahoma or Nebraska ... or Kansas.
n St. Kansas, who are they? Yes, they are
Conn. the Big Eight representative who will
invade Michigan Stadium for the first
time ever.
What are their qualifications as a
football team? Well, picture North-
western in the Big Ten and you've got
it. The doormats, the pushovers, the
team that the opposing coach takes his
first string out after the first half and
gives them a rest until the following
week. '
But watch-out, Wolverine fans. We all
remember the easy ones that past
Michigan squads were supposed to win.
Stanford and Baylor in '75 (19-19 and 14-
14 respectively), Purdue in '76 (a 16-14
upset loss), and Minnesota in '77 (16-0
upset lass). And believe it with the
passing offense and depth on defense
that Jayhawk coach Don Fambrough
has built because they are capable of
upsets, like last year's 28-24 edging of a
devastating UCLA team.
Rifle-armed sophomore Kevin Clin-
ton will be Fambrough's man in com-
mand at the quarterback position. Last
week in Kansas' 24-0 season opening
loss to Pittsburgh he started his first
game ever as a Jayhawk and com-
pleted 17 of 30 passes for 163 yards.
establish a good running game. I was
very pleased with our protection. They
only got to me twice and Pitt has a very
good defensive front."
And when Clinton talks about needing
a running game, he is very far from
making an understatement. Against the

195), are out of the lineup with pulled
hamstring muslees.
"We're real fortunate to have several
good backups at wide receiver. At the
same time, we need everyone healthy,
for this one. Russ and David would give
our passing attack an additional
boost," explained Fambrough.
Clinton's prime target against
Michigan will probably be sophomore
wide receiver Kevin Murphy. Last
week Murphy grabbed five passes and
scampered for 64 yards to lead his
team. Senior wide receiver Jimmy Lit-
tle, and senior tight end Lloyd Sobek
will be two other targets Clinton will
have his eye on when he sets up to pass.
Little grabbed five passes for 52 yards
last week and Sobek caught two for 44
yards.
The Jayhawk defense is no group of
patsies. They picked off four Panther
passes and caused two fumbles in their
first outing and Fambrough had no
complaints. "The defense is still
probably the most pleasing area. We
feel it's one area where we've got some
depth," he said. "In fact, we're running
two units which we don't really
distinguish between. We don't call them
first team and second team. One's the
'Hawk' unit and one's the 'Hit' unit, and
they're about equal in ability."
So forget their 0-7 conference record
last year, their 24-0 loss to Pitt last
weekend, and remember how they
upended the powerful UCLA Bruins. In
this Big Eight-Big Ten match up
anything can happen and the,
Wolverines, might just have to add
Kansas in '79 to their list of the games
they should have won.

Although Clinton was pleased with his
passing attack, he saw other bright and
dull spots in the offensive unit. "We
can't pass every down. We must

yards than they gained. "I was disap-
pointed with our performance (against
Pittsburgh) only because of the
mistakes. Offensively, we have to play
better as a unit," said the Kansas men-
tor Fambrough.
But when Clinton drops back in the'
pocket to let the pigskin fly, he has plen-
ty of talented receivers to choose as his
target, regardless of the fact that his
