Kansas Faces Early Tests as 1968 Season Looms
Kansas eyes a 0-2 risk before opening league play with Kansas State after nonconference games against Texas Tech Syracuse and New Mexico. Texas Tech rebuilds under J T King with a pro set and strong defense led by Denny Hardaway, the first black football scholar, while Syracuse reloads under Ben Schwartzwalder with Marty Januskiewicz delivering frosh offense. New Mexico, under Rudy Feldman, shifts to a Texas y offense with limited experienced players and no returning quarterbacks ahead of the Albuquerque clash. The Lobo defense loses much of 1968 talent but adds fresh faces, making the Sunday night kickoff in Albuquerque noteworthy.
