IC COURIER-POST, Sunday, September 14, 1380 COLLEGE FOOTBALL Rutgers trounces Temple to avenge 9 lacin of the season. McMichael, who tore, up the Owls for 152 passing yards in the first half (13-of-17), completed an 11-yard pass to tight end Steve Pfirman and a 19-yarder to tight endJim Odell to get the Scarlet rolling. After fullback Blackwell broke off runs of 10 and nine yards, McMichael hit the powerful runner with a 16-yard pass to the Temple one. A delay of game penalty brought the ball back to the six, but Black-well bulled up the middle for four yards and Moore carried over left tackle for a two-yard touchdown. The Knights made it 14-0 in the second quarter as Blackwell capped a 40-yard drive with a one-yard plunge.

McMichael ignited the drive with three consecutive pass completions. The Rutgers quarterback hit Odell for IS yards, then followed one. Leek plunged over for the' score. Two other Owls' drives were stifled by Murphy interceptions. "One I tried to float and a couple of others I forced," said Murphy.

"That is from inexperience. I learned some things tonight, and a good team will learn to hold its head up in defeat instead of sulking. The Owls had a few questions is ask themselves at halftime. Like, Where's Brian Broomell? Wheio's Mark Bright? And where is our defense? The Owls' standout quarterback and punishing fullback have been graduated. But Temple's defense was mostly unaccounted for.

The Scarlet Knights moved the football 79 yards on 14 plays for a touchdown on their first possession feeble 60 yards. "I wasn't kidding about having bad practices for most of this year so far, and I was worried coming into this game," said Rutgers Coach Frank Burns. "We looked somewhat better the last few days, and I was very happy when we scored on our first possession of the game. "You still have to respect Temple. They lost a lot of key people to graduation, but they will come on strong as the season progresses.

Revenge, for last year? No, I don't want to talk about that." With a 14-3 intermission lead, Rutgers iced the game with a fourth-quarter touchdown. A Murphy pass intended for Gerald "Sweetfeet" Lucear, was picked off by linebacker Keith Woetzel and returned 23 yards to the Temple back Ed McMichael, forced to the sidelines in the third quarter with a twisted knee, led the Scarlet domination with a 15-oM9 passing show good for all Rutgers 175 yards in the air. Dependable Ted Blackwell led the Rutgers running game with 87 yards on 20 carries and one touchdown. Florence's Bryant Moore and Oakcrest's Ralph Leek, who replaced the injured McMichael, plunged over for the other Rutgers scores. Temple quarterback Tink Murphy, making his first starting debut hit 16 of 35 for 173 yards.

However, the junior found himself trailing most of the game and made three timely interceptions in the second half. The Temple running game, meanwhile, finished with a Pitt in squeaker after 9 turnovers with a 10-yarder to tailback Albert Ray and another 12-yard pass to Odell. The Scarlet rolled to 229 total offensive yards in the first half. Among McMichael's 1 3 completions were four each to Pfirman and Odell. Blackwell picked up 51 yards rushing on 13 carries.

1 Temple, meanwhile, was stifled on the ground. The Temple running attack, trying to fill the rather large cleats of Bright, gained only 25 yards on 14 carries a sad average of less than two yards per carry. Quarterback Murphy, who struggled in the first three series, finally got going on Temple's fourth possession and finished 6-for-U and 65 yards.
