He also accounted for 46 yards on four carries and a catch on Florida State's opening scoring drive. Dunn has gained more than 100 yards in each of Florida State's games and has totaled 689 yards on 67 carries for a gaudy 10.3 average.

Miami tied the game 7-7 with 2:56 left in the first period when Trent Jones stepped into the end zone with a blocked punt. The kick was blocked by the Hurricanes' Tremaine Mack, who had come through the left side of the Seminoles line. But the Hurricanes couldn't move the ball against a Florida State defense bolstered by the return of starting linebackers Daryl Bush and Todd Rebol, who had been out much of the season with injuries. Sophomore quarterback Ryan Clement, making his first start for Miami, hit just 10 of 23 passes for 96 yards and had two intercepted. the half and a 24-7 lead.

Cooper made a leaping catch in the corner of the end zone as the Seminoles built a 17-7 advantage and he scored again with 33 seconds left in the half when he caught Kanell's pass at the 5 and sidestepped two Miami defenders to score. Kanell also benefitted from a leaping catch by Phillip Riley on a 23-yard scoring play early in the fourth quarter that gave the Seminoles a 38-10 lead. Florida State's three first-half scoring drives went 64, 70 and 80 yards with the first touchdown coming on Pooh Bear Williams' 1-yard run midway through the first quarter. Scott Bentley, who earlier missed a 32-yard field goal try, added a 34-yard field goal. Bentley also hit one of two more tries in the second half to give Florida State a 41-10 lead.

Dunn's 44-yard run on the opening drive of the second half set up his own 1-yard scoring TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Warrick Dunn ran a career-high 184 yards and a touchdown and Danny Kanell threw three scoring passes Saturday night as top-ranked Florida State shook off a sluggish start and demolished longtime nemesis Miami, 41-17. The Seminoles (5-0) extended their unbeaten string to 12 straight since losing, 34-20, last year at Miami. It was Florida State's largest victory margin over the Hurricanes since a 38-3 win in 1984 and just its third victory in their last 11 meetings. Miami (1-3) is off to its poorest start since an 0-4 beginning in 1975.

Plagued for much of the half by penalties and inconsistent play, the Seminoles led only 10-7 until Kanell hooked up with Andre Cooper on plays covering 8 and 26 yards in the final 3:49 of Associated Press TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Deion Sanders, a two-time Ail-American cornerback at Florida State, returned to his alma mater Saturday for the retirement of his uniform number. Sanders No. 2 was retired during the No. 1-ranked Seminoles' game with Miami.

The Lumberjacks went into this game with the sole intent of not letting Cossacks running back Freddie Bradley beat them. And they were successful, holding him to 75 yards on 15 carries. Bradley had been averaging a little more than 100 yards per game. "Our defense played really well," Humboldt State coach Fred Whit-mire said.

"That Bradley is a very dangerous player, and for us to contain him says a lot about the kind of job our defense did." With Bradley rendered ineffective, sophomore receiver Rod Heck stepped up with six catches (four for first downs) for 73 yards. Gallien, a senior, also hauled in four catches for 53 yards. An inspired Sonoma State defense played well for the better part of three quarters. But the fourth quarter saw the Lumberjacks' rushing attack gradually wear down the Cossacks. Led by Ke Alii Clifford (103 yards on 23 carries) and Percy McGee (83 yards, 12 carries) the Lumberjacks churned out 204 yards on the ground.

Clifford also scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. His first score, a 5-yarder with 10:10 left in the game, put the Lumberjacks in front for good, 17-13. His score with 4:01 remaining removed any lingering doubt. McGee scored on an 11-yard run in the second quarter that put Humboldt State in front, 10-6. "We got tired," Scalercio admitted.

"And they just did a good job of running the football." Humboldt State also didn't do a bad job passing either. Chris Shipe, ranked seventh nationally in passing efficiency, completed 20 of 36 passes for 233 yards. Brendan McMurtrie, a sophomore out of Petaluma High, made field goals of 28 and 47 yards for the Cossacks in the second quarter.

WEEKEND J)(0 BOOK TEE TIMES 7 DAYS IN ADVANCE PRICES EVEN LOWER AFTER TWIUCHT I I I By DAVE WILLIAMS Staff Writer ROHNERT PARK It will go down in the books as another loss for Sonoma State University's football team, but it also might be remembered down the line as the day the Cossacks discovered their quarterback. Junior Josh Fisher, playing his first collegiate football game, brought life to a sagging passing attack but was unable to carry Sonoma State to a victory in its homecoming game as Humboldt State pounded out a 24-13 win. The Cossacks fell to 0-1-1 in the Northern California Athletic Conference and 0-4-1 overall, while the Lumberjacks upped their mark to 4-1-1 overall and 1-0 in the NCAC.

The 6-foot-2, 195-pound Fisher who played high school football at Sebastopol's Analy High completed 19 of 34 passes for 228 yards and threw the Cossacks' first touchdown pass of the season, a 25-yar-der to Tyrone Gallien. That passing score gave the Cossacks a 13-10 lead with 10:22 left in the third quarter. But his inexperience showed at two crucial moments. Later in the third quarter, with the Cossacks still holding a 13-10 lead and getting excellent field position at the Lumberjacks' 30 after a weak punt, Fisher threw into double coverage in the end zone and his pass was picked off by L.J. Eiben.

Early in the fourth the Cossacks had the ball on their own 40. Fisher lofted a pass intended for Derek Minnatee into triple coverage, only to have it intercepted by Juan Viramontes. Those two mistakes, however, didn't dampen Sonoma State coach Frank Scalercio's enthusiasm toward Fisher. "Josh did a good job for us," Scalercio said. "We moved the ball through the air, and they (the Lumberjacks) did a good job taking away some of our run stuff.

And that's something we can build DVC upends The Santa Rosa JC football team is getting closer and closer to winning its first game of the season.

Scott Kelley completed 16 of 31 passes for 219 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Bear Cubs. Mike Shelton, Scott Sacherer and Andrew Hill each caught touchdown passes for the Bear Cubs.

Kelley was intercepted twice. Santa Rosa led, 27-23, with 2:30 left in the game, but DVC's Jacob Woody returned a punt 74 yards for the winning touchdown.

But this time, Notre Dame was capitalizing on them.

No. 15 Washington committed three errors in the final three minutes, Saturday and No. 23 Notre Dame took full advantage in beat- ing the Huskies 29-21 at Seattle. The backbreaker was corner- back Allen Rossum's 76-yard return of an interception for the clinching touchdown as Notre was clinging to a 22-21 lead in the final minute.

Arizona State closed to 20-14 on Proud Robinson shows emotions By MARY FOSTER Associated Press GRAMBLING, La. Coach Eddie Robinson did just what was expected Saturday coaching Grambling State to an easy victory over Mississippi Valley State for his 400th career triumph, then proclaiming himself proud to be an American, and crying. "I cry more than most people," Robinson said after the 42-6 victory. "For a person like me, today has to be a great moment.

It could only happen in America. I think it's an honor when the commander-in-chief of this nation calls you on the telephone." President Bill Clinton called Robinson to congratulate him on both his endurance and his latest win. "I'm so proud of you," Clinton said from Martha's Vineyard, where he was attending a friend's wedding. "What's even more amazing is never missing a game. The American people are proud of you." As the game ended, the landmark win was greeted with balloons, fireworks and dancing on the field in Robinson Stadium.

Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards also called to congratulate Robinson, 76, the first coach ever to hit the 400-victory mark. His teams have lost 145 games and there have been 15 ties, but Robinson has had just five losing seasons while coaching Grambling for 53 years. "I had a lot of great players and coaches help me get to this point," Robinson said. "Eddie Robinson didn't get here all alone." Robinson passed former Alabama coach Bear Bryant's 323-victory mark almost exactly 10 years earlier on Oct.

5, 1985 to become the winningest coach in college football. Jason Bratton ran for touchdowns of 17 and 1 yard and by the time John Miller ran 13 yards for the final TD with 32 seconds left, photographers, fans and players had surrounded Robinson on the sideline, blocking his view of the score. Fans and players, even some Mississippi Valley players, hugged and celebrated as balloons were released and fireworks spelled out "Congratulations Coach Robinson 400 Wins," and burst above the field. Robinson, who said he hoped reaching the 400 mark would end the distractions around his team, was scheduled to go to Disney World on Monday. On Tuesday, he's scheduled to be inducted into the Blue-Gray Hall of Fame in Birmingham, Ala.

Saturday night he planned to do some celebrating with his wife of 54 years, Doris. "I guess we'll have some people over to the house. We'll laugh and talk and play some old records," Robinson said. "And I'll cry." quent taxpayers. Astonishing results are well documented.
