ball but Hopkins grabbed it before it hit the ground James gobbled 21 yards on a pair of carries setting SMU business on the Arkansas 9 For once Taylor benefited from a Mustang lapse taking the handoff looking for a non-existent trailing back and turning the busted play into a touchdown But Arkansas stormed back with a touchdown manufactured without Mustang assistance The Hogs took the ensuing kickoff and marched 79 yards nlfle plays with Scanlon squirting over from the one with 37 seconds remaining Arkansas did take advantage of some well-timed fortune when Scanlon's pass deflected

handed the Razorbacks 24 of then 31 first half points a Mustang trait that has been as crippling as their epidemic of injuries By the time the turnover plague had been cured Arkansas trotted to the locker room with a fat-cat 31-7 halftime advantage SMU quarterback Jim Bob Taylor who had in the last two games avoided the major errors that had become an unwelcome trademark slipped back into his old rut on the first snap Taylor retreated to pass and was hit by Ricky Richardson with Jeff Goff recovering the fumble on the SMU 29 Scanlon immediately mobilized the Hog offense dumping a swing pass to Anderson who sped for a 14-yard gam Two plays later Scanlon popped a strike to tight end Steve Clyde wide open the middle of the end zone for a 7-0 lead About five minutes later the Pomes again gift-wrapped another Arkansas score Return specialist Dick Blaylock retrieved a Steve Cox punt advanced seven yards and forgot the football EM Jackson made the recovery for the Hogs on the SMU 34 with Steve Douglas causing the bobble Scanlon agam moved the Razorbacks to three first downs throwing 18 yards to Bobby Duckworth for the major gam When the dnve stalled Ish Ordonez legged a 32-yard field

University on Saturday Scanlon who entered the game hitting 65 percent of his passes hit 10 of 14 for 121 yards as Arkansas built a 31-7 halftime lead Arkansas started at the SMU 29 34 and 44 the first quarter because of two fumble recovenes and a 17-yard punt and turned those opportunities into a 17-0 lead The Razorbacks picked to finish the SWC's second division wound up 10-1 for the season and 7-1 tn league play Houston and Texas are both 6-1 in the conference and finish the season next Houston against Rice and Texas against Texas If both win and both will be favored Arkansas will go to

Bowl SMU finishes the season 54 After Scanlon rolled right and dumped a 3-yard scoring pass to Gary Anderson falling backward into the end zone to make it 17-0 SMU moved to the Arkansas 40 From there linebacker Mike Massey hurried Jim Bob throw and Kevin Evans made the first of his two interceptions The Razorbacks then covered 67 yards in six plays including a 45-yard keeper by Scanlon on the option play He ended the dnve with a 7-yard toss to tight end Steve Clyde on the delay across the middle Earlier Scanlon had found Clyde on a lob behind the SMU defense for 8 yards and the first Arkansas touchdown It was Scanlon's 18-yard pass to Bobby Duckworth across the middle that set Ish Ordonez' 32-yard field goal which put Arkansas on top 1(M) And it was Scanlon's two passes to Darryl Mason for 32 yards that led to the TD pass to Anderson Taylor got SMU on the scoreboard with 3 21 left in the half when his teammates went left and he kept nght from the 9 Arkansas then erased any

touchdown on an U-yard flare pass to tailback Jarvis Redwuie The Comhuskers looked as if they might hold on despite Billy Sims Okay they seemed to be saying let Sims get 1000 yards today outscore the rest of them But things began to go wrong They lost first one comerback and then another to injuries And then Oklahoma hit the big go-ahead touchdown pass to Valora who was wide open at the Nebraska 30 and waltzed The predicatable had happened A young comerback who had been watching Sims go berserk all afternoon from the sideline was so run-conscious when he entered the game as a substitute that he jumped at the fake of Watts He played for a run and the Sooners threw behind him Backed to the wall in the fourth period the Huskers fished out a gimmick from a Class high school playbook They pulled a fake fumble which was snapped up by guard Randy Schleusener who ran 15 yards for a touchdown tned it another time earlier in the said Nebraska coach Tom Osborne it work We figured we might have to use it In fact we told the referee we might pull quarterback Watts threw a 58-vard touchdown pass to tight end Forrest Valora in the third quarter That shocking play the combination of a Nebraska secondary mistake and an accurate throw by Watts pushed the Sooners into a 10-7 lead and they never trailed again quarterback has to be good to make the wishbone observed Nebraska linebacker Kerry Weinmaster Watts was good today They got to us and that really surprises me I mean they made the big plays on us They did a good job on us The torment Sims had in mind for Nebraska was well defined early the game when he broke loose on a 68-yard touchdown gallop part of which was erased by a senseiess clipping infraction The idea was to take a wide handoff on the weak side (away from the tight end side) and then make a swift and sudden cutback once into the secondary cutbacks just kill said Nebraska defensive end Dan Linstrom gone before you know it Today was a matter of a good back
