The Dallas Cowboys, NFL champions, sit as almost a three-touchdown favorite to beat Nebraskas Bob Devaneys All-Star squad in the 39th All-Star Football Game at Soldier Field televised by ABC at 9 p.m. ET. Devaney relies on his Cornhusker staff and stars led by quarterback Jerry Tagge for a tough challenge. Landry notes two Nebraska quarterbacks may run the I formation, a potential edge for the opponent. The NFL preseason opens with Kansas City at Cleveland and Hall of Fame inductions set for Canton. Philadelphia claims Doug Woodlief off waivers as Houston repositions players. Jim Marshall reports no setback after ankle surgery.
