FIOKOTIBAU. 3D Wisconsin State Journal Sunday, September 20, 1992 Detmer saves Colorado ox Big ten Westbrook. Minnesota had a chance to avoid its eighth consecutive loss, but Aaron Piepkorn barely missed a 55-yard field goal with 17 seconds to play. 11 Gophers 28 43-190 27-43 196 193 13-28-0 262 96 26-54-4 First downs Rushes-yards Passing yards Return yards Comp-Att-Int Punts Fumbles-lost Penalties-yards Time of possession Colorado 10-41 5-45 2-2 2-0 9-53 6-45 24:10 35:50 8 8 14 7 21 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Another season, another Detmer. And more trouble for defenses across the country.

Koy Detmer was supposed to sit out his freshman season with Colorado. But when the llth-ranked Buffaloes weren't able to move the ball Saturday night, Ty's younger brother took off his red shirt. Detmer, playing only the second half, completed 11 of 18 passes for 184 yards and two touchdowns, including a go-ahead 24-yarder to Charles Johnson with 12 minutes, 2 seconds left in the game, as Colorado rallied from a 17-point deficit to beat Minnesota, 21-20, in a non-conference college football game. Colorado is 3-0. Minnesota is 0-2.

"I told the coach I'd like to redshirt," Detmer said, "but that I'd be willing to play if they needed me." They needed him. And Coach Bill McCartney was only too happy to trade a year of Detmer's eligibility for a victory. i "I'm not sad to lose his redshirt year, not when we can win a game like that," McCartney said. "I think we'll always remember the game Koy stepped in for us." Detmer dreamed of glory while watching Ty win the Heisman Trophy in 1990. Ty had another solid season in 1991 before joining the Green Bay Packers.

Koy almost followed his brother to Brigham Young but decided to go to Colorado when McCartney switched to a passing offense. "I dreamed a little bit," said Koy Detmer, who came to the Buffaloes after setting the Texas prep passing yardage mark. "But I never thought it would be like this." Colorado had to turn to Detmer because Duke Tobin, starting for injured Kordell Stewart, had a poor first half. Detmer's other scoring pass was a 49-yarder to Michael Minnesota 8 7 18 3 28 Minnesota Fisher, recovered blocked punt In end lone (Piepkorn, kick) Minnesota FG, Piepkorn, 26 Minnesota Com or Ice, 2, pass from Fleetwood (Piepkorn, kick) Colorado Westbrook, 49, pass from Detmer (Blot-naux, kick) Colorado D.

The Volunteers are 3-0 overall and 2-0 in the SEC. Florida, which TOP 25 had its SEC winning streak snapped at 11 games, is 1-1, 1-1. The Gators lost for only the second time in 16 SEC games since Steve Spurrier became the coach.

The other defeat was a 45-3 loss against Tennessee. The game turned on two plays late in the third quarter during a driving rainstorm. Facing third down and 5 at the Tennessee 34, Shuler tossed a short swing pass to Mose Phillips, who raced 66 yards untouched to put the Volunteers ahead, 24-7, with 2:49 left. The Gators ran a fake punt on fourth-and-one from their 19 on the ensuing series. Michael Gilmore was stopped for no gain and Tennessee took over.

Five plays later, Shuler scored his second touchdown and Tennessee had a 31-7 lead with 13:43 left.

Texas has won its first four games for the first time since 1978. AROUND THE NATION Elvis impersonator lifts Michigan to king status All you moviegoers who have watched those Elvis impersonators in "Honeymoon in Vegas," get ready for the real thing.

Michigan sophomore Todd Collins proved Saturday against Okla-' homa State he might be better than the King. Elvis Grbac, that is. Collins, filling in for an injured Grbac, threw two touchdown passes in a 35-3 victory. It was'the first start for Collins, a redshirt sophomore, who completed 29 for 285 yards. His completion total set a school record, five better than Bob Ptacek's 24 in 1958.

"I was a little bit nervous," Col-' lins said. "And I threw a couple of high balls. But as I get more ex-'perience, I'll calm down and get 1 those throws down. But, for the most part, I was pretty confident." Grbac got his first start in much the same way. He was a redshirt freshman in 1989 when he started four games after Michael Taylor was injured.

He went 4-0 in those starts and became the regular the following year. Paterno ready for friend Penn State Coach Joe Paterno has a special visitor coming to State College, this week. No, it's not a big-name recruit. Rather, it's President George Bush. Paterno, who seconded Bush's nomination at the 1988 Republican National Convention but missed this year's meeting because of football practice, said he will open his usually closed practices to the president if Bush wants to see the lOth-ranked Nittany Lions.

"He's a friend of mine. He's a good friend, and when a friend comes to town, you see him," Pa- terno said Saturday. "I don't think I'm too busy to take time off when the president of the United States comes to town." Faulk takes out policy In order to protect his valuable legs, sophomore sensation Marshall Faulk has decided to take out an insurance policy. Not with the good hands people, rather than National Collegiate "Athletic Association. Faulk, who has rushed for 519 yards in two games this season for San Diego State, has applied for a $1.8 million disability insurance policy, San Diego State Coach Al Luginbill said.

Faulk, who led the nation in rushing as a freshman, would be I the first sophomore insured 'through the NCAA Exceptional 'Student-Athlete Disability Insurance Program. The program allows elite collegiate athletes to purchascinsurance without paying premiums until they turn pro or until the coverage is terminated. The NCAA program, started in 1990, is open to football players projected as first- or second-round draft picks. Baseball and basketball players projected as first-round picks also are eligible. Coughlin finds success Sure, the Green Bay Packers are struggling.

But at least one former Green Bay assistant has found success. Tom Coughlin, a former wide receivers coach under Lindy Infante, watched as his Boston College team went to 3-0 with a 28-0 victory over Navy Saturday at Boston. Coughlin was 4-7 last year in his first season as Boston College's coach. Dwight Shirley ran for 149 yards and a touchdown and Chuckie Dukes contributed 119 yards and a TD for the Eagles, who had consecutive shutouts for the first time since 1956. UW's next foe wins big Rob Rugai completed 17 of 20 passes for 219 yards and ran for a touchdown and LeShon Johnson rushed for 99 yards and a score as North Illinois (2-1) Wisconsin's next opponent rolled to a 31-0 non-conference victory over Arkansas State.

Johnson scored from 16 yards out midway through the first quarter, capping an 11-play, 88-yard drive. Brian Steger booted a 22-yard field goal and Rugai ran in from the 1 in the second quarter as the Huskies opened a 17-0 lead. .....0 Texas 3 14 9-26 1 3 8-11 ..7 Missouri Missouri Lyons, 1, run (Jacke, kick) liams, kick) Ohio Stole George, 1, run (Williams, kick) Syracuse FG, Blskup, 24 Ohio State Georoe, 1, run (Williams, kick) Syracuse FG, Blskup, 32 Syracuse Graves, run (run failed) Ohio State Smith, 16, run (Williams, kick) Ohio State George, 2, run (Williams, kick) Att. 49,629.

The Seminoles had 13 yards of offense with about 6 minutes left in the opening half and trailed, 3-0. But Ward, who threw his ninth interception of the season in the first quarter and missed on his first five passes, led Florida State on two quick scoring drives. Ward threw three completions, the last a 60-yard TD pass to De-wayne Washington for a 7-3 lead. Four plays after the Wolfpack punted Ward found Sebastian Savage for a 32-yard TD pass just before halftime. Sean Jackson had 101 yards on 12 carries, including a 15-yard TD run midway through the fourth quarter for the Seminoles.

The victory extended Washington's winning streak to 17 games and continued Nebraska's drought against top teams. The Cornhuskers have lost 10 consecutive games to teams ranked in the Top Five and eight straight to Top 10 teams. Nebraska (2-1) closed to 9-7 on a 73-yard touchdown run by Calvin Jones in the second quarter, but Washington struck back with two quick scores. After Napoleon Kaufman scored on a 1-yard run with 1:29 left in the half, Washington got the ball right back on an interception by Walter Bailey at the Nebraska 47. Three plays later, Billy Joe Hobert threw a 29-yard touchdown pass to Joe Kralik to give the Huskies a 23-7 lead and control of the game.

Replays indicated that Kralik i may have been out of bounds and may not have held onto the ball as he dove in the back of the end zone, but Nebraska didn't protest the call. Nebraska made it 23-14 on a 1-yard TD run by quarterback Mike Grant in the third quarter, but Travis Hanson kicked two field goals to put the game away. Washington, which needed a second-half rally to beat Nebraska 36-21 last year, took a 9-0 lead this time when Tommie Smith tackled Grant for a safety in the first quarter and Beno Bryant scored on a 1-yard run in the second quarter. Nebraska entered the game with the nation's top offense, averaging 559 yards and 49 points. But the Cornhuskers managed only 309 yards and 14 points against Washington's aggressive defense, which converted two fumble recoveries and an interception into 17 points.

Hobert, who is now 15-0 as starter, left the game briefly after suffering a pinched nerve early in the second quarter.
