El Paso Herald -Post ports Worlldl October 4 1976 WAC roundup Ducky back winners announced BOB INGRAM- 'Street fighter' helps beat UTEP been lost for the season with a knee injury "Defensive tackle is where Blsck belongs" said Bartosh The Miners will face an Arizona team that has beaten Auburn and Northwestern and lost narrowly to Brigham Young A FRESHMAN quarterbark Jim Krohn subbing for the injured Marc Lunsford hurled three touchdown passes as the Wildcats beat Northwestern of the Big Ten 27-15 The big story within the Western Athletic Conference was Wyoming's 13-10 victory over Arizona State defending champion who has yet to win a game this season A 57-yard Marc Cousins-to-John Arnold touchdown pass and a 64-yard touchdown strike on a halfback option pass from Bob Davis to Arnold enabled the Cowboys to beat the Sun Devils Coach Gil Bartosh announced today thet nose guard Mike (Tick) Young offensive guard Jim Martinez and center Gary Garihan had won Gold Helmets for their play against Utah and that Robert (Ducky) Elliott definitely will be in the lineup when the Miners play Arizona at Tucson Saturday night The news about Elliott will be good news for Miner fans The big Bel Air fullback has been out of the last two Miner games with an injured ankle and UTEP has suffered an offensive lag ELLIOTT would have been especially helpful to tire Miners last Saturday in their 38-14 loss to Utah Likely linebacker Hal Barnett will return Bartosh also announced today that Keith Black transfer from Washington would be shifted from a linebacker spot to a defensive tackle and replace Charles Underwood who has Noel Mazzone led the New Mexico Lobos to a 33-20 WAC game win over Colorado State BRIGHAM YOUNG tied with New Mexico at 3-0 for the WAC lead ventured into California and edged previously undefeated San Diego State behind a pair of Dave Taylor field goals and a safety The Lobos intercepted four CSU passes and ran up 300 yards on the ground "The way we played we have beaten a girls' football team" said OSU coach Sark Arslanlan Frank Kush was even more unhappy about ASU "Our offensive effort was an insult to the game of football" he said "Wyoming deserved to win because they wanted it more than we did We've got some people who are not giving it their full effort and going to work in some of the younger Besides the UTEP-Arizona game Wyoming is at BYU Cincinnati is at ASU Colorado State goes to Utah State San Jose is at New Mexico and Utah goes to Iowa State this week OJ's way 0 Simpson (32) dashes in from the five-yard Hue to score bla second touchdown Sunday aa the Buffalo Bills trounced Kanaaa City 50-17 Simpson ran for 130 yards College roundup Georgia 'Runts' sink Tide By GREG AIELLO ITI Spirt Writer Georgia has only one starting defensive player who weighs more than 210 pounds For that reason the team's defensive coach nicknamed his squad "The Hunts" The name seems to reflect little on the ability of the Georgia defenders The sixih-rjnkcd Bulldogs beat nioth-ninked Alabama 21-0 Saturday Tle shutout was Georgia's second in 15 days and the first suffered by the Crimson Tide in six years "Keep playing this game and it will hiipiien to you" said Alabama Coach Big punt return THE MINERS may have become disheartened at such a chain of misfortunes And defensively they may not have been alert after losing the hall on fumbles Head coach Gil Bartosh pointed to some defensive breakdowns particularly some by the secondary that enabled the Utes to cash in The big play for the Miners was Lee Mitchell's punt return in the first quarter of 52 yards It set up the Miners' first touchdown with Don Amerson going over from the one Mitchell took the punt near the left sideline and cut back to his right "We had a double wall set up for said Bartosh The Miners' other touchdown was made at the opening of the third quarter Utah could have taken the ball but chose to kick to the Miners They drove 82 yards with Amerson hitting Dean Allcorn and Harold Johnson for good-sized gainers and Ron Rachofer making some nice running advances "I figured the Miners would make some more mistakes so I decided to kick to them" said Lovat "It shows what a smart coach I am" The Miners didn't fumble the ball on that drive The touchdown by Amerson put them in business But their chances of catching up wenl by the boards in the same quarter when the Utes picked off another Muter fumble and Hagemann first ran 26 and then 11 for a touchdown The Miners made a big goal line stand after the Utes had the game won As Bartosh says a team that wins has to show some poise and be able to overcome adverse situations such as the Miners had Saturday Injuries hurt MANY or US THOUGHT all week that Ducky Elliott would be ready to play against Utah and Bartosh may have been figuring on using him up to almost game time But when Elliott told him that he was 80 percent whole Gil decided to hold him out and have him 100 percent for Arizona Linebacker Hal Barnett also was held out And Charles Underwood 240-pound tackle received a knee injury early in the season and likely will be out of action for the rest of the season All those injuries hurt badly But the fumbles hurt worse never played on a team that committed as many fumbles as that or coached a team that gave the ball up seven times in a game on fumbles" said Bartosh IN THEIR LAST two Rimes the UTEP Miners have faced unknown or unsung quarterbacks and have come out the worst for having done so Noel Mazzone starting his first col lege game piloted New Mexico to a 25-7 win over the Miners And last Saturday Dan Hagemann a senior who was a backup to Pat Dognan one of the Western Athletic Conference's top quarterbacks a year ago led Utah over the Miners 38-14 Hagemann was dubbed a "street fighter" by Tom Lovat the Utah coach after the game in Salt Lake City Saturday night I lagem ann has the pug-like look of a back-all fighter and he may have brawled his way into the starting job at Utah or wresting a lot of starting time for Degnan when the latter is able to play again Hagemann was recruited from Palo Alto Calif by Oklahoma When Sooner coach Barry Switzer decided to redshirt him in his sophomore year Hagemann left that school and wound up at Utah He threw eight completed passes good for 114 yards and two touchdowns against the Miners His scrambling was just about as big an asset to the Ules He ran 83 yards net including a 31-yard breakout The Miners had a heck of a time chasing him down and catching him He frustrated them with his Fran Tar-kenton scrambling Fumbling night BUT R2AILY it wasn't Hagemann or any of the other Utes who really beat the Miners On a rainy night the football was like a wet bar of soap to them They set a scliool record by fumbling the ball to Utah seven times That included the punt attempt early in the first quarter when Jerry Walker got a good snap from center but muffed the ball and never got the kirk away It was the fourth down and the Ules had the bnli in an advantageous spot for them on the Miners 19 The Utes converted that turnover into a touchdown They made four other tourhdowns after retrieving the ball that was fumbled by the Miners Counting the extra points that was 35 points given the Utes by the Miners They really earned their 42-yard Held goal Tor Utah let it be said that the Utes made the most of their good dr-cumstances When the Miners fumbled to them they smelled the goal line and got the ball in Michigan rushing list 52 yards ahead of Tom Harmon In other top 10 games third-ranked

lead the Chicago Bulls to a 96-83 pre-season victory last night over the Milwaukee Bucks The Bulls outscored the Bucks 26-13 in the fourth quarter to preserve their first win of the exhibition season Scott May and Keith Starr each added 13 points for Chicago Milwaukee built a 10-point lead early in the third quarter but the Bulls took a 63-62 advantage at 3:40 in the period on a tip-in by Johnson The Bucks' Bob Dand ridge led all scorers with 17 points while teammate Alex English scored 15 Bear Bryant "We lost to a spirited team and that'a an understatement I didn't expect them to shut us out but they richly deserved it" GEORGIA limited Alabama's wishbone offense to 49 yards rushing 250 below the Tide's average and sacked quarterback Jeff Rutledge six times in the final period when Alabama abandoned the wishbone for a passing attack Quarterback Matt Robinson paced the offense rushing three yards for one touchdown and passing six yards to Ulysses Norris for another not degrading Alabama" said Georgia Coach Vince Dooley "But this may be Rear Bryant's worst team since 1970 They are awfully young in key positions NEITHER second-ranked UCLA nor eighth-ranked Ohio Stale elected to gamble in the last minute of play in their 10-10 tie Ohio State Coach Woody Hayes was booed by many of the 87969 fans in Columbus Ohio for his decision to punt rather than try for a first down on a fourth-and-four at UCLA's 48 with 30 seconds left "I don't like ties but I wasn't going to throw the game away" Hayes said "We decided to kick it down in there thinking they would come out passing and we would intercept" UCLA didn't pass and it didn't fumble either Therefore Ohio State failed to avenge a 23-10 loss to the Bruins in the New Year's Day Rose Bowl game that spoiled a perfect season "I FELT IT was a tremendous struggle on both 32-y ear-old first-year coach Terry Donahue said "It was a very intense game a classic struggle" Rob Lytic scored on runs of nine and 25 yards to lead
