Did it mean ! {anything to the players? Did you happen to follow the team in its game the following Saturday against braska? That was the answer. Meehan said that Syracuse had to ibe at its best to get away with the gume against the Cornhuskers. Tt was one of the best elevens SAW this year. The team was versed in every phase of foot ball, .and had brawn, weight and speed besides. The manner in' which Nebraska was coached to beat.Notre Dame, as Mee- han set forth, showed that Fred Daw- son. the Cormhusker coach, had not scouted the South Benders in vain. On Notre Dame's spread offense the opposing linemen. Instead of cutting through the holes and being clipped down in the backfield as Princeton tacklers yere. plaved the attacking linemen themselves, fighting them back with their hands until they came In contact with-the play. In this way the Indlanans had no op-| portunity for slanting outside of tackle.
