Gophers club I Northwestern 2-D Dayton Daily News Sun, Oct 18, 1977 Late Miami touchdown nips ()hio By MARTY WILLIAMS Daily News Sports Writer OXFORD For two quarters at sun-drenched Miami Field Saturday afternoon, the host Redskins 1 and Ohio University slugged it out toe to toe like a couple of tireless young heavy weights.

"r- But as the weather grew ugly in the second half, so did both defensive units. However, the Bobcats dropped their guard momentarily in the closing minutes and Miami sneaked in a 23-yard haymaker from Larry Fortner to Steve Joecken that produced a 28-24 decision and sole possession of first place in the Mid-American Conference. "That was the first time since I've been in coaching," said a relieved Redskin chief Dick Crum, "that I've ever had a team score 21 points, in the first half and still been behind." BOTH TEAMS SCORED touchdowns on their first two possessions and that set the tempo for a half that ended with Ohio sitting on a 24-21 lead. While Miami's homecoming queen and her court were blowing kisses to the overflow crowd of 15,587 at halftlme, Crum and OU Coach Bill Hess were pleading with their defenders to start earning their scholarships. Crum got his message across a little better, but the speech wasn't a Knute Rockne tear-jerker.

As one reporter put It, "What did you tell your defense at the half, coach?" Without cracking a smile (Crum permits himself eight smiles a year and he's saving seven for Christmas), Crum said, "I just told them to start tackling. We had so many missed tackles in the first half, it was ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) "We were ready for them," said Michigan coach Bo Schembechler. The Wolverines, ranked No. 1 in the nation In college football, left little doubt they deserve their first-place spot as they wallopped Big Ten rival Wisconsin, 56-0, Saturday.

The Badgers, like Michigan, had been unbeaten and untied. "We weren't tight, we just played poorly," said Badgers coach John Jardlne. "I'm not optimistic about most of the rest of the season," he added. "We were outplayed today in every aspect of the game. We couldn't move offensively and we couldn't stop them defensively." IT WAS SUBSTITUTE tailback Roosevelt Smith and quarterback Rick Leach who led the way for Michigan.

Smith rushed for two touchdowns, while Leach passed for two and ran for another. "We were really fired up for this one," Leach Smith, meanwhile; said: "I knew I could come back from last year's knee injury, but I needed a chance. .1 got it today." I'V-1 111 Mark Ouncrn'OiDv Ntws Miami's Fortner escapes Lucas and goes to 2-yard line, setting up second 'Skin TD MINNEAPOLIS (UPI) Quarterback-Marc Trestman, starting his first game since 1974, ran two yards for a touchm down and sophomore Paul Roglnd kicked two long field goals Saturday to give the Minnesota Gophers a 13-7 homecoming victory over North wcst- era's Wildcats. The weather was sunny. and 47 de grees but the play was ragged asJ.

Minnesota won its first Big Ten victory against two losses before a crowd 39,021. Northwestern sank deeper into' the conference cellar with 0-4. Rogind, whose field goals of 44 and 33 yards were the winning margin, ran his season total to nine field goals a Minnesota record against only two misses. own goal line. Green's boot reached only to the Ohio 42.

FORTNER HIT WARTH for 16 yards and a first down, then came the slipup In the OU secondary. Fortner appeared ready to be buried for a huge loss, but he eluded his tormenters and went to outlet man Joecken, who was all by himself near the right sideline. The Bobcats had two more possessions, but Redskin defensive back Pat McDermott, a senior from Dayton, aborted both with interceptions at his own 23 and 31-yard lines. Since Miami plays only five MAC games, the victory was vital. Ahead on the next four Saturdays are Bowling Green, Toledo, Western Michigan and Kent State.

Kent had the lead until losing to BG MSU pulls out error-filled, 13-13 tie with Indiana BLOOMINGTON, Ind. "(AP) Tackle John Malinoski recovered a fumble by teammate Steve Smith in the Indiana end zone for a touchdown with just under two minutes remaining Saturday, and Hans Nielsen's extra-point kick gave Michigan State a 13-13 tie with the Hoosiers in an error-filled Big Ten football game. The Hoosiers had taken a 13-6 lead four minutes earlier on an eight-yard touchdown pass from Scott Arnett to.Markus Hardy, but Spartan quarterback Ed Smith directed an 80-yard drive and set up the tying touchdown with a 27-yard pass to Barry Harris at the Indiana 1-yard line. Steve Smith then took the ball but fumbled and Malinoski pounced on it in the end zone. Baffin' Miami 28, Ohio U.

21 Ohio U. Miami 14 10 0 0-24 14 7 0 7 28 pitiful. You have to tackle before you can play defense." THE GAME STARTED on a dreary note for the injury-decimated Bobcats as John Summers fumbled the opening klckoff and Miami recovered at the OU 29. The Redskins needed nine plays before Fortner punched off right tackle for the score. The Bobcats forced to start freshman John Gamble at fullback and sophomore Kevin Babcock at tailback because all-time leading rusher Arnold Welcher had knee surgery last week quickly tied it up on a 21-yard pass from Andy Vetter to Mark Gels-ler, a 6-4, 210-pound tight end who is going to inflict a lot of pain on defensive backs during the next 2 years.

After the Redskins moved ahead again on a two-yard run by Kaiser Holman, Vetter and Geisler thundered back to knot it at 14-14. A 30-yarder put the ball on the 15, then Vetter appeared to throw one over Geisler's head. But the sophomore from Marietta swatted it back with his right hand, caught It with his left and bulled into the end zone. After each team was forced to punt for the first time, the Bobcats got 10 points on their first two possessions in the second quarter, a 44-yard field goal by Steve Green and a three-yard Vetter run. The Vetter TD came two plays after defensive end Thee Lemon recovered a Holman fumble at the Miami five.

TRAILING 24-14, the Redskins took over on their own 23 with 4:43 left in the first half. At that stage, Fortner had gone back to pass twice. He threw his only attempt straight into the ground and was also sacked once for minus seven yards. The skinny junior from Lorain found his range and put the 'Skins back in the game with three straight completions, including a 21-yard touchdown to tight end Tim Whetsel with 36 seconds left. The drive had been stalled at the Miami 43, but punter Jeff Rowlands deliberately held onto the ball until two Bobcats were right on him, then managed to get the kick away and draw a 15-yard roughness penalty that kept the drive going.

The only scoring in the second half came when OU's Green was forced to punt into a gale from his Illini come back, nip Purdue WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) Quarterback Mike McCray scored from the one-yard line and completed a two-point conversion pass to James Coleman with 3:18 to play Saturday, giving Illi- nois a 29-22 Big Ten football over Purdue. Freshman Dave Finzer kicked field goals of 53, 22 and 32 yards, and McCray passed six yards to Tom Schoo-ley for a touchdown to push Illinois to a 15-0 early In the second quarter.

With three seconds left, Janakievski tacked on his three-pointer for good measure, Gerald not only finished the game with 100 yards on the ground, but 91 passing yards on 9 of 12 completions. It was quite a day for the 6-1, 174-pound junior from Dallas, Tex. It wasn't a bad day either for senior Jeff Logan, the forgotten tailback-fullback who began the season as a possible Heisman Trophy candidate but who has 'missed two games because of a sprained ankle. 1 STARTING AT fullback, Logan chipped in with 64 yards in 10 attempts.

Three of bis attempts were intercepted, raising Ohio State's total to 16 In six games 12 in the last three outings. Joe Allegro swiped one while Tom Roche pulled down two.

All were deflections which were first tipped by alert Ohio State linemen. BIG BUCK Woody Hayes was pleased, especially with the defense. "Our defense again was very, very, very good today," he said. "We really throttled them until there at the last when they finally punched one over on us. "That McLaughlin really Impressed me out there.

He stuck right in there the whole game. When we broke through several times and threw him for a loss, he didn't get down or complain. He just hung In there and did his job. Yes, I was real Impressed with him as i football player and a young man. "The Iowa team was better than It has been.

This year, they were more dogged. I'll tell you, there aren't many teams that could stop us down there on the one yard line or one foot line, or whatever it was.
