it’s too bad too, because Coach
Russell is a good coach and he
worked hard with us. It’s just
too bad."
An encouraging aspect on a
sad Saturday was the profici
ency of the Georgia passing
attack When the veer infantry
bogged down, Matt Robinson
gave it some needed air sup
port. On Georgia's third pos
session of the second half, the
Bulldogs came out passing like
it was a punt, pass and kick
contest Robinson and his tight
end Richard Appleby teamed
up with four completions in
two scoring drives. In 10
attempts, Robinson hit his
receivers six times for a total
of 145 yards.
With the passing game work
ing very well, it is puzzling
why the Bulldogs didn't use the
halfback option pass. In three
previous contests, Horace King
had thrown five times, com
pleting three. One King pass
netted six points in the Oregon
Slate game
Coach Dooley summed up
Saturday's performance very
well, "We had a good chance
to win, but we could never stop
them. It's as simple as that.
We never could stop them.”
Prior to Saturday’s kickoff in
Death Valley, the entire Clem-
son squad-players, coaches,
trainers, everybody-gathered
on top of the south slope
overlooking the field. There the
Tigers waited patiently until
all activity inside the stadium
had ceased. When everyone’s
attention was focused on the
crest of the hill, the Clemson
crew charged down onto the
field Four quarters and 299
yards later they stopped run
ning.
Following the contest, many
were wondering just what had
happened to the Georgia de
fense. The only problem being
that there was no simple
answer. "We've got to keep
studying the defense,” said
Coach Vince Dooley, he stated
further, "Last week I thought
we took a step forward. But
today it seems as though we
took a step backward."
DEFENSIVE tackle Dan Spi
vey had what he thought was a
fairly decent appraisal The
hugh senior, who sprained his
left ankle during the fourth
quarter, felt that Clemson was
well prepared to attack the
split 60 defense. As he explain
ed, "we used it on South
Carolina and they had never
seen it before. But Clemson
knew we were gonna use it and
they were ready for us."
Essentially, the split 60 is
designed to protect against
wide plays. The defense takes
away a man from the middle
and puts him on the outside.
With the defensive linemen
spread further apart, the mid
dle can be exploited with traps
and counter plays.
Spivey added, “It’s ridicu
lous the way we played. And
For people who
take rock music seriously.

Clemson
Determined not to let Clem
son dominate Georgia's week
end, the Georgia Bullpups play
ed solid football in every
respect en route to a 27-14
victory over the Clemson Cubs
in Sanford stadium Monday
afternoon.
At the outset, Clemson took
advantage of its superior size
and speed to pile up some
yards rushing, but the Pups
stiffened deep in their own
territory and took over from
there.
Steve Murdock recovered the
first of four Cub fumbles on the
Clemson 12 and quarterback
David N^cDonald sneaked over
from the 2 for the first score
Later, Steve Dennis climaxed
a 49 yard drive by pitching 16
yards to flanker-quarterback
Johnny Henderson for a 13-0
lead. In the second quarter,
Dennis threw eight yards to
tight end Mark Farriba to run
the score to 19-C, as two extra
points failed.
Clemson retaliated quickly
as Warren Ratchford scooted
96 yards for a TD on the
ensuing kickoff. Ratchford also
hauled in a 63-yard pass for the
only other Clemson score. He
remained the only craw in
Georgia's defensive play, as he
I gathered in several aerials on
the day.
Georgia tallied once in the
second half as Paul Ross
climaxed a 62-yard drive by
plunging the last six yards
himself, with McDonald run
ning for the two-point conver
sion to make it 27-14.

One of the fraternity signs
hanging from the top of Clem-
son’s Memorial Stadium pro
claimed, "This is Tiger chow's
finest hour." Saturday. Red
Parker’s Tigers did indeed
enjoy a healthy portion of
Southern fried Bulldog.
Approximately 42,800 Death
Valley enthusiasts lauded the
Clemson Tigers as they pulled
off their second stunning upset
in as many weekends.
Clemson used a powerful
running attack to blitz the
Georgia Bulldogs 28 24. Sopho
more quarterback Mike O'Cain
and running back Tony Ma
thews led the Tiger offense
which hammered out 299 yards
rushing On the other hand,
Georgia's sometimes potent
Vycr couldn't consistently pe
netrate Clemson’s aggressive
defensive unit. Matt Robinson
and his backfield mates strug
gled for only 139 yards on the
ground, a total far below their
record setting pace of last
week.
THE OBVIOUS KEY to the
upset was Clemson’s ability to
convert important third down
plays into first downs Aside
from finding the handle on two
loose balls and plucking an
interception out of the sky, the
Bulldog defense was unable to
make the big third down play
defensively. Coach Vince Doo
ley accknowledged this.
“They beat us because we
couldn't stop them on third
down," he said, “We couldn't
stop Iheir quarterback." Time
and again Clemson pounded
out first downs. Twenty-three
times, to be exact.
In the course of a defensive
performance that Dooley de
scribed as "taking a step
backward,” two encouraging
plays stood out Keith Harris
and Steve Taylor, both reliable
performers, came up with im
portant turnovers that eventu
ally led to Bulldog scores. In
the first period, Clemson had
second and long on its own 37
yard tine. Harris, blitzing from
his linebacker position, smo
thered O'Cain and recovered
the ensuing fumble at the 29.
From that point, Georgia took
it in for a touchdown.
TAYLOR made an incredible
interception of an O’Cain bomb
in the end zone. By dragging
his foot as he clutched the ball,
the senior' cornerback barely
managed to stay in bounds.
During the first half, Georgia
had two excellent opportunities
to increase a seven point lead
The touchdown visions, vanish
ed like mirages. One TD was
called back when the 'Dogs
were penalized deep in Clem
son territory. Minutes later,
after turning the ball over on
their 35, Clemson realized its
mission and throttled the Geor
gia veer as the drive ended in
a missed Allen Leavitt field
goal attempt.
When they had to, the Tigers
passed. And passed well. Ben
nie Cunningham was the recei
ver Clemson wanted to carry
the ball The only way for the
Bulldog defenders to stop Jhe
huge I6'5”, 252 lbs.) tight Pnd
was to jump on his back and
ride him down like a steer.
Cunningham had four recep
tions for 63 yards, and as far
as Georgia is concerned, one
touchdown too many.
Bulldog defensive back Abb
Ansley said of Cunningham's
last TD "He's their main man
and we knew they would go to
him in the clutch They showed
run And it looked just like the
option play. But then their
quarterback just up and threw
it to him." It was a well
executed play-fake into the line
that allowed Cunningham to
get open in the end zone.
The air lanes, however, were
open for both squads.
During the second half, Geor
gia used the passing game to
great advantage. Matt Robin
son looked sharp while direct
ing two come-from-behind
touchdown drives. The lanky
sophomore completed six of 10
aerials for 145 yards. Richard
Appleby latched onto four of
those tosses and almost turned
one into six points.
Next Saturday against Ole
Miss, the 'Dogs will have to do
one of two things; stop the run
or score 52 points
