West Has Great Aerial Attack
Nebraska Coach Bob Devaney faces a pleasant dilemma in selecting a quarterback for the All American game. Heisman winner Jim Plunkett and SMU’s Chuck Hixson loom as options along with a corps of elite receivers like J D Hill, Chuck Dicus, Ernie Jennings, Bob Moore, and Otto Stowe. The East squad’s defense is led by Charley McClendon’s LSU unit, with Nebraskas Bo Cornell and Dan Schniess also dangerous as receivers.
