1 the Rapid City Journal 41 Sunday, October 3, 1 978 Buckeyes, Bruins settle for a tie Jacks fall IS Interceptions aid Coyotes' rally George Strode COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) The opposing coaches, Woody Hayes and Terry Donahue, offered different reasons for going conservative in the closing minutes of the 10-10 college football standoff between UCLA and Ohio state Saturday. Eighth-ranked Ohio State ran the ball every time In its final drive to the UCLA 47-yard line, drawing a chorus of boos from the Ohio Stadium sellout crowd. "I didn't like the fans booing. I hope it affected me more than the kids. That's why I answered them back," said Hayes, who would not say how he responded.

Why didn't the Buckeyes gamble on fourth down and four yards to go with 33 seconds left at the Bruins' 47? "If we had gambled and lost," Hayes replied, "UCLA would have been within one good pass play of a field goal. My defensive coaches advised me of this. I listened to them." So Tom Skladany, who kicked a tying field goal of 23 yards early In the quarter, punted to the UCLA seven. Donahue's fourth-ranked Bruins then ran out the clock with three straight rushing plays. rr rrnt i "if JX'xm I) to NDSU FARGO, N.D.

Then came McCormick's first Interception and USD Coach Beanie Cooper dug into his hat for the magic play that gave the Coyotes their first victory of the year. Eddie Sawyer notes changes from 1950 team VALLEY FORGE, Pa.

(AP) Eddie Sawyer, the last manager to lead Philadelphia to a National League pennant, says he'll probably watch on television instead of in person if the Phillies make the World Series this year. "I always say the best seat in the ballpark is on the bench," said Sawyer, 65, from his suburban Philadelphia home here. "It's just the fact that I don't like to go. I don't even watch it on television too much." In 1950, Sawyer piloted the "Whiz Kids" to the pennant. They were swept in four games by the New York Yankees in the World Series.

But it's not just that a living-room couch is more comfortable than a seat at the ballpark. The game has changed, said Sawyer. "I would say, yes, 1 have lost interest, just because everything Is different," Sawyer said. And in his prime: "It was more exciting." "Twenty-six years makes a big difference. The players are different.

They platoon more. They also play on AstroTurt. It's like playing on the street. It's easier to get base hits and so forth," he said. Because of those differences, Sawyer said he cannot compare his Whiz Kids to this year's Phillies.

"How can Sawyer has not yet seen this year's Phillies live, and he said he doubts that he'll be in Veterans Stadium for what could be Philadelphia's home end of the series. If he sees it at all, says Sawyer, "I would sit here and watch it on television." Sawyer managed the Phils from 1948-1952, then again from 1958-1960. From 1961-1966 he worked as a special-assignment scout for Philadelphia. In 1974, he retired completely from baseball, after two years of scouting for the Kansas City Royals. Boston College tips Navy ANNAPOLIS, Md.

(AP) Boston College end Dave Zumbach caught his first two passes of the year Saturday, and both were good for touchdowns as the 15th-ranked Eagles whipped Navy 17-13. SIOUX FALLS (AP) Two late-game interceptions by Clyde McCormlck helped South Dakota to a 30-27 come-from-behind North Central Conference victory over Augustana Saturday night. McCormick's first interception in the end zone resulted in a USD razzle-dazzle play that gave the Coyotes their first lead since early In the game. On the play quarterback Scott Pollock pitched to split end Mark Neumann on what looked like an end reverse, but Neumann hit Rick Hinds with a 74-yard scoring pass with 3:08 to play. A two-point conversion gave the Coyotes a 30-27 edge.

On the first play after the kickoff, McCormlck picked off a Dee Jay Donlin pass on the Augustana 47 with 2: 12 left to seal the victory, the first or the year for the Coyotes. USD Is now 1-0 in the NCC and 1-3 on the year. Augustana Is 0-1 in the league and 2-2 over-all. South Dakota got its first lead at 7-6 when a lateral sailed over Randy Laflan's head and Mike Mahan recovered for the Coyotes in the end zone. A 76-yard pass from Donlin to George Cohlmia and a one-yard run by Scott Mugnuson put the Vikings on top 20-7 before Mike Magutre brought USD within five at halftime (20-15) on a 15-yard scamper.

The Vikings, who host Northern Iowa Saturday, took the second-half kickoff Georgia rips Alabama ATHENS, Ga. (AP) Sixth-ranked' Georgia, tired by the gambling of quarterback Matt Robinson and a defense that refused to budge, thrashed lOth-ranked Alabama 21-0 Saturday, virtually killing the Crimson Tide's hopes of winning a sixth straight Southeastern Conference football crown. Robinson scored one touchdown and threw for another while Georgia's defensive unit handed Alabama its first shutout in 70 games as the Bulldogs stretched their regular season winning streak to 10 games. It was Georgia's first triumph over Alabama in 11 years and left an overflow crowd of more than 60,000 delirious, plus another estimated 12,000 watching from free vantage points at the open end of Sanford Stadium. The Bulldogs stunned Alabama with a 67-yard scoring drive in the final four minutes of the first half, gambling on a fourth and two situation and getting the touchdown on Robinson's three-yard run with only eight seconds remaining.

Robinson hurled a six-yard touchdown pass to Ulysses Norris in the final quarter and the other Bulldog score came in the third period on Rayfield William's two-yard run.

UCLA, averaging more than 480 yards a game, could muster only 288 against the Buckeyes' veteran defensive platoon. Of that, 203 yards came on the ground by the nation's second-leading rushing team. Ohio State, averaging 364 yards a contest, settled for 221, all but 41 of.it on the ground.

Skladany kicked his tying field goal with 7:21 remaining. The nation's leading punter the last two seasons had missed a 47-yard field goal try just Inside the second quarter that would have given Ohio State a 3-0 lead. Ohio State was particularly effective defensively In the first half, permitting the Bruins to get no closer to the goal line than 47 yards. UCLA penetrated mldfleld only twice in the opening half. The Erulns had reeled off three straight victories at the end of last season and followed with their Rose Bowl triumph and three more victories to start this fall.

Neb. (AP) Al Eveland booted a 32-yard field goal with 6:24 remaining in the game and Vince Ferragamo tossed his second touchdown pass minutes later to lead No. 5 Nebraska to a 17-9 come-from- behind football victory over a hard-nosed University of Miami team Saturday. Ferragamo's 23-yard scoring aerial to Dave Shamblin iced the victory for Nebraska with 3:21 left in the game.

Eveland's key field goal climaxed a Cornhusker drive kept alive by back-to-back 13-yard penalties for roughing the kicker and grabbing the face mask. Nebraska had stalled at the Miami 49, but the penalties moved them to the Hurricanes' 18. Eveland's field goal came after Husker quarterback Ferragamo was sacked at the Miami 16-yard line. Miami failed to move the ball on the next possession. Nebraska drove 67 yards in six plays for its final insurance score.

Miami led 9-7 with 12:08 left after Chris Dennis booted a 51-yard field goal. Nebraska's first touchdown came on the Huskers' initial third quarter possession, with Ferragamo tossing the 32-yard scoring pass to Chuck Malito which capped a 58-yard drive. Miami led 6-0 at the half. It marked the first time Nebraska was shut out for a half in Lincoln since 1974, when Oklahoma State blanked the Huskers -for two quarters. Miami's first half touchdown was set up when Bryan Ferguson intercepted a Ferragamo pass at the Miami 47 and returned it to the Nebraska five.

Ottis Anderson scored on the next play, fumbling in the Husker end zone but recovering for the tally. The extra point play failed.

Nebraska-Ferragamo 17-22-1, 264 yards. Bobick scores TKO UTICA, N.Y. (AP) Undefeated Duane Bobick scored a sixth-round technical knockout over a bloodied Chuck Wepner in a nationally-televised heavyweight fight here Saturday. Bobick's punches first opened cuts on Wepner's face when he caught the aging New Jersey fighter against the ropes in the third round. By the end of the fourth round Bobick had opened cuts above both of Wepner's eyes and on his cheek.

The fight was stopped at 1:12 of the sixth round. The victory was the 36th straight for Bobick since he turned pro after winning the silver medal at the 1972 Olympics. Bobick, 26, of St. Paul, caught the 35-year-old Wepner against the ropes in the third and fifth rounds. intercepted by BH defenders.

"But there was a mistake on the field and there was confusion on the sidelines. That was my fault." The deadlock ended the Bruins' seven-game winning streak in the rematch of the 1976 Rose Bowl opponents. In the closing minutes, both sides apparently played for a tie, running the ball Instead of going to the air.

The Buckeyes, now 2-11, drew a chorus of boos when they ran seven successive running plays and punted the ball Instead of trying a long-range field goal in the last minute. Skladany punted to the Bruins' seven-yard line and UCLA, 3-0-1, ran out the clock with three rushing plays. The Buckeyes, beaten by UCLA 23-10 in the Rose Bowl, struck for a 7-0 lead on fullback Pete Johnson's four-yard run midway In the second quarter. Frank Corral booted a 47-yard field goal to cut the deficit to 7-3 midway through the third quarter and took a 10-7 lead on quarterback Jeff Dank worth's one-yard sneak with more than 13 minutes to go.

(AP) Second-string quarterback Jeff Knapple rallied Colorado to three quick third-quarter touchdowns, two of them by tailback Tony Reed, and the Buffaloes fought off a stubborn Drake team 45-24 Saturday in college football. Knapple, replacing, starter Jeff Austin midway through the second quarter in an effort to generate some offensive punch and eliminate mistakes, promptly took the Buffs to a touchdown and a 17-10 lead. But wlnless Drake battled back to tie the score for the third time In the half. The Drake touchdown followed Billy Waddy's fumble of a punt at the Colorado 11-yard line. On the next play, tailback Frank Gilliam, on the halfback option, passed to tight end Pat Tuttle, and Drake was tied with the Buffs, 17-17 at halftime.

Colorado, however, wasted no time in the third quarter in showing Its superiority. On the first series of the half, Knapple ran 24 yards to help set up Reed's 34-yard dash for a score with 13:11 left.
