But they didn't reckon with Sullivan, who looked even better than in 1950, when as a sophomore he completed 51 per cent of his passes for 1,098 yards. This was Wyoming's second loss in Its last 21 games am the first time the Cowboys were shut out since Denver did it in 1948. They were bidding for their 12th straight on the same field where they conquered Southern Conference Champion Washington and Lee last New Year's Day. Eddie Talboom, star of the Wyoming attack throughout the successful 1949-50 campaigns, was missing tonight. Harry Geldien, stepping up to the tailback spot, was tops as a runner but his passing was ineffective.

Sullivan and Geldien each tried 16 passes. Sullivan completed 11 of his for 130 yards. Geldien completed 5 for 38 yards.

Hubert Brooks converted the first extra point but his kick was wide the second tryT PLAY BY PLAY FIRST The Gator Bowl footing was slippery from all-afternoon rain and both teams found the going too precarious to make a first down until midway in quarter.

Florida took it from 40 to the Wyoming 24 in three plays, one an 18-yard pass, Sulli van to Reddell, but Quinn fumbled and Dunn got the ball for Wyoming his 24.
