For the Tar Heels it was a third defeat (by one, four and four points) against a victory. For Miami it was a second triumph (both by 7-3 if you believe in numbers) losses and a tie. mrn Happiest" player in the Miami dressing room had to be Fortner, the luckless senior who somehow has figured in all of those turnovers.

Carolina 0 0 0' 3-3 MIAM Mattison 65 pass from Treedwat (Rowlands kick) UNC-FC- Hayes 47 -1 BY BILL FORD Enquirer Sports Reporter CHAPEL HILL, N.C.- Call it the Case Of The Phantom Passer. Or: How To Play Trick Football-Legal-'ly-And Win. Or: Revenge, Two Years And One Month After. Choose any or all of the above titles and you have the elements the underrated Redskins of Miami fit-ted Into one magnificent play in the third quarter Saturday to stun heavily-favored North Carolina, 7-3.

A capacity crowd of 48,000 spectators fitted into Kenan Stadl-um saw It and still refused to be-r lieve. Dick Crum, the North Caroli-" na coach, disclosed he himself had given Miami the play a year ago. iTom Reed, the rookie Miami coach, 'on the other side of the field, decided this indeed was the time to Actually, every player in the Miami offensive unit played his role perfectly for the play to succeed. "They did a good job of execution," said Crum. "They have not used it before this year, but it was in our play book last year." TO UNDERSTAND the drama of it all, we must turn back the clock to September of 1976.

Crum then was the Miami coach and the Redskins insisted they were beaten by an unethical maneuver when the Tar Heels feigned an injury, inviting the Redskins to relax, then turned It into an unchallenged 68-yard touchdown run engineered by Menapace isn't this the complete the Carolina quarterback. Further contributing to the. emotion of the hour was Crum's assuming the North Carolina Job only last January after coaching the Redskins to three Mid-American Conference championships, two Tangerine Bowl victories and a 34-10-1 record in four years. Both sides denied special emotion dictated the cirumstances. Crum said his defense "was ready.

Our offense was flat. But Miami is a good team defensively." Added Chuck Sharpe, the Carolina freshman quarterback in his first start: "Some people expected us to walk over Miami (North Carolina was a three-touchdown favorite). But we didn't think that way." Reed begged off singling out individuals, insisting his entire roster contributed something. But he did say the "defense was outstand ing and I'm not trying to downgrade the offense, which had an Important possession series (almost seven minutes) In the second half." THE TOUCHDOWN play was actually the only striking offense of the day. For instance, in the first quarter alone there were seven punts, four by Carolina.

By halftime (Miami 82 total yards, Carolina 134). neither team had penetrated the other's 30. The Redskins got that far in the second quarter, but Fortner was intercepted (his third of the game and eighth of the season) at the 17. End of rally. Carolina got to the 36 before dying and Hayes tried a field goal that was wide right.

In the end it indeed was the Miami defense, for Carolina inched Anvhow. there thev wpre Miami and North Carolina seemingly t.hrnwtnff at. nno annthap when the Redskins lined up at their Treadwell passed the football, Mattison caught the football, easily reaching the goal without a hand laid on him and the Redskins had the points that made Tar Heel place kicker Jeff Hayes' 47-yard field goal in the fourth quarter indeed inconsequential. it will go down as another bright victory in the Incredible Miami history as another moment of magic authored by an unknown freshman who not only Is not listed on the Redskins' roster, but a non-scholarship student-athlete as well. "He's a walk on," bubbled the excited Reed, trying to be calm and collected afterwards.

"He came down and asked for a chance to play football. He's a flanker, but he did play quarterback at Oberlin (Ohio, high school). dhww 35-yard line in the third quarter of a scoreless game. II as usual, Larry ortner, Miami's I resident quarterback, took the normal snap. Then quickly handed off to a 155-pound freshman named Don Treadwell, who lined up as the flanker.

"REVERSE," YELLED the Tar Heel defense and the secondary moved toward the line of scrimmage. Suddenly, Treadwell stopped in his tracks. Fleeing down-field was teammate Mark Mattison, who had broken In the clear at the North Carolina 30. tl U) JCU. "THE PLAY? We call it 35 split end reverse pass.

He could have run, it's optional. He reacts to the defense. We've worked on It in practice and it depends on the situation when to call it. This seemed to be the time." For Treadwell, the play was hatched on the practice field several weeks ago. "This week (Mark) Mattison and I worked special on it," related Treadwell.

"Look, I've got a pretty good arm. Whether I run or pass de-pends on the safety. When he (Bernie Menapace) came up, there it was." Georgia Burns Ole Miss, 42-3 ATHENS, Ga.
