In the final period, Rutgers took over on the Boston 19, but it was "no dice" again as another field goal try failed. Rutgers got the ball on the Boston 23 for its next series, but came up empty again, this time being forced to punt on a fourth-and-25 situation from the 38.

"We were in a zone coverage," explained the former Vailsburg high school football star from Newark, and I was just in the right area at the right time.

After I stiff-armed the last guy I suddenly saw nobody else in front of me and that's when I frist started thinking touchdown." While both defenses dominated the game, the Scarlet wasted numerous opportunities. In the first quarter, halfback Bill Bolash ran 44 yards on a reverse to the BU 22, but the Knights iva a III I their own territory most of the day and the Rutgers defense did the rest.
