(AP) Quarterback Joe Roth passed for two touchdowns, Chuck Muncie accounted for more than 200 yards and Steve Rivera caught nine passes for the University of California Satur- daey as the Bears shocked fourth-ranked Southern California 28-14. A sophomore cornerback, Jeff Moye, made the key defensive play in the upset victory which broke the Trojans' 18 game unbeaten streak one day after Coach John McKay had announced this season would be his last at the collegiate level.

California never trailed in the regionally televised Pacific-8 Conference game. Moye's tackle of Southern Cal quarterback Vince Evans just short of the Bears' goal line in the final minute of the first half kept the score at 7-7, stopping a Trojan drive which went 45 yards. Roth, a junior, passed for 244 yards and two Wes Walker in the second quarter and George Freitas in the third. Muncie ran for 143 yards and caught five passes for 62 yards, while Rivera made nine receptions for 131 yards. An 87-yard drive early in the fourth period made the difference.

It ended when Roth bulled into the end zone on a quarterback sneak. The touchdown broke a 14-14 tie, and fullback Tom Newton scored late in the game after the Trojans gave up the football at their own 16- yard line when they fumbled on a fourth down play. The loss was the first for Southern Cal since the opening game last season, when Arkansas defeated the Trojans. They were unbeaten in their last 28 conference games, since a 1971 loss to Stanford. It was only the 37th loss in McKay's 16-year stay, which ends after this season when he takes over the Tampa franchise in the National Football League.

Cal, which tied the Trojans last season, made its Pac-8 record 4-1 and its over-all mark 5-3 with the victory before a Memorial Stadium crowd of 58,871. The Trojans, still very much in the running for a fourth consecutive conference title, are 3-1 in the Pac-8, 7-1 overall.

The Gators, building up a 21-7 halftime lead with the help of two interceptions, iced thee game with a 22-yard Ken Posey field goal, which came after an Auburn fumble, and a four-yard DuBose burst for the final points. DuBose smashed past the mark for the season, picking up 149 yards on 27 carries up the middle. That gave him 1,055 yards for the season.

He kept Florida's wishbone on the ground in the second half. Auburn's Jeff Gilliganmade a circus catch in the Tigers' first scoring drive and finished the game with five of Aueburns' six receptions. Auburn swapped out its quarterbacks with Clyde Baumgartner coming off the bench to bring the Tigers back from their early 14-0 deficit. Phil Gargis returned in the second half to guide Auburn to a quick score to narrow the gap to 21-14. The bruising runs by DuBose made him the first Florida runner ever to break the barrier in a single season.

Fisher put the Gators in command from the start by piloting a 76-yards drive on their first possession, pitching out to Larry Brinson on a sweep around left end for six yards and the score. The Gators' Alvin Cowans promptly picked off a stray Auburn pass, and five plays later Fisher hit Wes Chandler turning in at the goal line for a 34 yard touchdown and a 14-0 margin which Auburn never could overcome.

(AP)Ross Browner blocked and recovered a Navy punt for one Notre Dame touchdown and pounced on a Navy fumble to set up another score Saturday as the Irish defense led the way to a 31-10 college football victory over the Midshipmen. The victory was 15th-ranked Notre Dame's 12th straight over Navy in the nation's longest continuous intersectional rivalry, dating to 1927. Navy's defense was ranked third in the nation going into the game, but it was the Irish defenders who came up with the big plays that reversed a 30 Navy lead in the first quarter. Browner, a 6-foot-3, 235-pound sophomore defensive end, lifted the Irish to a precarious 17-10 lead going into the final quarter.

Then, defensive tackle Jeff Weston raced 53 yards with an intercepted pass for one touchdown and linebacker Tom Eastman ran another interception to the Navy four-yard line to set up the final Irish score by Al Hunter.

Bright was staying with him at 75 yards on 15 tries when an apparent ankle injury sidelined the stubby sophomore.

Clemson had its usual fumble trouble, losing the ball foaur times and twice having passes intercepted. But reserve William Scott returned the second half kickoff 65 yards to give Clemson one bright spot in the daey.

In addition to the running of Key and Bright, Walker completed 10 of 14 passes for 165 yards. His reserve, Mathieson, completed three of eight for 44 yards. One of the game's biggest plays vrom scrimmage was Walker's short pass over the line to Bright, who barreled for a 61-yard gain that set up Florida State's third touchdown. Clemson Coach Red Parker, declared, "We have gone steadily downhill becuase we have no enthusiasm to play and have not demonstrated enough character." Parker said if he is unable to get "our younger people to show some heart for the future," he will tell Clemson authorities at the end of the season that "we need a new football coach." Coach Dal Mutra of Florida State said, "It looks like we might have turned the comer with our team. It looked like we were aggressive and knew what we were doing."
