Summaries: Score by periods: Bucknell Gettysburg 0 1 7 0 0-7 0 0 10 College football scores stuns Bucknell eleven, By Herschel Ntsienson AP sports writer You don't need a scorecard to tell the -winners and losers from the latest spaced-out college football weekend.

What Oklahoma State did was end a Gettysburg By Jeff Ranck GETTYSBURG There's probably no better place for history to repeat itself than at historic Gettysburg when the occasion is the annual Bucknell vs. Gettysburg football clash. Regardless of either team's record or reputation prior to that game, the record books show that more often than not the apparent winner seldom appears in the victory column.

It is almost always a closely contested game. That little history lesson was born out again Saturday, and it is one that Bucknell Coach Bob Curtis and his team not only would like to forget, but at the moment, according to Curtis, have to forget for the remainder of the season. Gettysburg beat the Bisons (3-3), 10-7 on their own field before 4,800 disbelieving fans. Curtis spent the next 24 hours following the game having nightmares and checking missing persons reports with the state police to see if anyone had found his offense. cond period after a Kerry Snow pass was intercepted at the Bucknell 33.

On the next play, Snow hit Brunt for the touchdown. The second half was a scoreless defensive struggle. Bucknell nearly pulled it out in the eleventh hour.

With less than three minutes left to play, the Bisons took possession at their own 17. In 10 plays. Snow moved BU to the Gettysburg 15, the big play being a 25-yard pass to Larry Brunt. A pass to Karl Meyer moved the ball to the 11, but on the third down Snow was hit from the side while trying to pass and was intercepted for the third time and the game was all but over.

But they still have to beat us on our football field on a certain day and we're going to play to win." Curtis wasn't taking the game lightly.

During the week he had mentioned how tough it was preparing his team for this game. And when it was over, he found himself in disbelief after watching his hapless Bisons plunge back into mediocrity. "I said I couldn't believe it before the game was over. I watched them make mistake after mistake and from there it just tumbled into a ball of mistakes," said the disgruntled Curtis. The pattern of the game was easy enough to understand.

Gettysburg got on the board first early in the first quarter with a 48-yard field goal by Richard Ep-pleman. Then they made it 10-0 in the se-. "It's too misty," he said. "Sometimes I couldn't tell which direction the car was going. For me it was the limit.
