bursts. And the bullish 215-pound Tureaud had a fantastic afternoon, gaining 219 yards on 20 rushes, including a six-yard run for the final touchdown. Reed fired nine strikes in 18 attempts for 138 yards, including an 18-yard strike to Jackie Jefferson for a third-period touchdown which put the host Tigers out front to stay. But early, it was defense which held the line for Grambling crackling, bone-jarring defense. When Tennessee won the toss and chose to receive, it was playing up Grambling's alley.

"We figured that it had been our defense all season that had been our strong suit," said Robinson afterward. "We wanted to introduce them to our defense right off the bat." The plan paid off. TSU's Fred Lane fumbled the kickoff at his 11 and Greg Brown covered it for Grambling. It was an early break and added momentum to the local Tigers even though Reed fired an interception into the end zone on the next play. Dennis Kerpow! The GC defense forced a punt eight plays later and after Tureaud fumbled the ball back to Tennessee on the first play of the series, Dennis got in his lick.

TSU's tight end James Thax-ton broke free near the GC 25, went up for a Ken Pettiford pass and was knocked head-over-teacup by a thunderbolt block by Dennis just as he touched the ball. Thaxton came down on his head, his helmet flying, and he had to be assisted back to the bench. He later returned to action but made only three liig Bluetwo on the next series but failed to score after snubbing a field goal try on fourth-andJwo. Richard 'Paul, who converted after each Grambling score, tried a 45-yard field goal but was wide midway the period. Grambling blew another after taking over on the TSU 12 when a desperation fake punt backfired on the Blue.

Sammie White raced four before hobbling the ball. However, it was a case of going to well enough for Grambling. On its next chance after Bryant intercepted at his 35 and. to the TSU 49, Grambling moved in on just three plays. Tureaud ran 35 yards -on a draw to get things going and climaxed the push with his- eight-yard brust up the middle.

Grambling's oft-maligned young offensive guards provided some springboard blocks for Tureaud's runs up the middle and successful reverses by Christophe, Fobbs, White and Kenneth' Canlon who specialized on running the reverse at Webster High. Charles-Thomas with 55 yards in 11 runs and Reese 53 in 16 runs led TSU's ground charge. Pettiford hit 15 of 39 passes for 176 yards but had three stolen. Duron finsihed with 8 ot 21 lor 154 yards and two touchdowns in the air. The Bulldog rushing game was led by Fulford (59 in nine runs) and Berteau (40 in 12).

Coach Maxie Lambright ad-m i 1 1 "UTA had the best over-all defense we have faced and their stunting seemed to give us problems on pass protection. "I thought our defense was great again, and, of course, you can't say enough for the pass coverage. They certainly were the turning point." can't learn that kind of play taking it easy on one another in practice," said Robinson. Reed's interception in the end zone and Tureaud's fumble were only two of four major mistakes by Grambling in the first 10 minutes of play and Rodney's bobble set TSU up at the hosts' 29 and led to the game's first score. When William Bryant interfered with a Big Blue receiver at the eight, the visitors cashed in on the ensuing play Charles Thomas bashing straight ahead into the end zone with 10:40 to play.

TSU's 7-0 lead held up until the quarter break and it looked as if the Blue Tigers were in control when they stopped a Grambling march at the TSU three to open the second stanza. However a fumble by running back Alfred Reese gave Gam-bling the ball right back (Baisy recovered). Fobbs took this one in on a great second-effort run but it took GC four shots to cover three yards lor the score. Grambling had an unsuccessful field goal try from the 30 and TSU marched to the GC 20 before an interception killed the threat as the half ended 7-7. Reese kicked TSU Into a 10-7 lead with 11:38 remaining in the third quarter, before Reed and Jefferson the senior tight end from Shreveport hooked up on their touchdown throw.

Bibbs set that up when he intercepted a poorly-thrown TSU screen pass and returned from the 45 to the visitors' 19. Grambling whirlwinded i way 64 yards to take its commanding 21-10 lead just seven plays later and Tureaud's 27-yard draw play started things off. With 3:57 left in the period. Christophe climbed over right guard from the two for the score. Pettiford then hooked up with wide receiver John Holland, propelling a 71-yard scoring march.

The TSU quarterback lofted a 22-yard scoring strike to Flanker Roger Carr, who finished with four catches for 115 yards in the game, got Tech's second touchdown four minutes into the second quarter on a 27-yard toss from Denny Duron. Danny Norris kicked the point after the first touchdown and Tech led 13-0 early in the second period. Tech appeared headed for a 19-0 halftime spread following Berteau's second touchdown with just 45 seconds left in the quarter. Causey's second theft of the night had stopped a UTA threat at the 27 with just a minute left in the half. Then, on the first play Duron rifled a 58-yard strike to Carr carrying to the UTA 15 from where Denny hit Berteau with a screen pass for the score.

However, Dexter Bussey returned the ensuing kickoff 80 yards and Arlington later scored when Craig Holland passed to Jack DeGrenier for a as the only unbeaten SLC club.
