Pittsburgh. lowa State and Kansas State, the Comhuskera have completed 49 4 percent of the *7 forward* they have thrown Only eight have been ph ked off by enemy hands and they have never thrown more than a dozen in any one contest. My understanding I* that most coaches figure 40 percent a high everage for pas* completion* Si* of the- 25 touchdown* scored by Nebraska were through the air. A study of th.- season's plsy also reveals that only three touchdown* have been scored through either the first or second string lines and one of those was by lowa Stale from the one yard line, after a 41 yards pass had put the ball there.
