This Tuesday morning is no, time to use paltry adjectives to describe Wisconsin's earthshaking performance on their way to their 17th straight loss against the Hoosiers. For although the Bad- gers outplayed their opponents in nearly every category of statistical importance, (gaining nearly twice as many first downs, twice as much rushing and passing yard- age, losing only one fumble to In- diana's six), past experience help- ed them come out on the short end of the stick again. Yes, mighty Wisconsin fought (actually fought!) its way back from a 14-0 and 21-7 deficits to score twice in the fourth quarter of the, game. But on a desperate do-or-die no-holds-barred try to win the game, the Badgers tried a two point conversion which fail-1 ed by inches. What spirit! What faith! What a cereal! In the tradition of such all-time great losers as Harold Stassen and Seymour Lindgren, Wisconsin gave up a tie in an at- tempt to pick up all the marbles,] for one day anyway.

Another important Big Ten tilt (We might note here that a Big Ten game that is important to one might not be important to another, but for the sake of minority recognition, if a game is important to any, we will mention it as important) took place in polluted Columbus, where Michi- gan State almost toppled a hearty foe for the second week in a row.' The Spartans, despite a second half surge, couldn't quit get it all together, however, and the for- tunate Ohio State Buckeyes beat them 25-20.

BOWLING GREEN BOMBED: 31M' frosh: Potent and poised -Associated Press OHIO STATE'S MIKE RADTKE (55) finally hauls in Michigan State's Don Highsmith after one of his punt returns in the second period of Saturday's contest. With the number of fumbles the Spartans had, it's almost surprising he didn't drop the ball. Michigan's freshman football team traveled to Bowling Green last Friday hoping to leave with a mere victory. What they did, however, exceeded even the most optimistic hopes of Wolverine fol- lowers, shredding the Falcons, 43- 6. Bowling Green, a team which had the benefit of two games pre- vious experience, was simply an- nihiliated by a Michigan team playing its first football game of the season. The Wolverines drew' first blood late in the first quarter on a 13- yard Dennis Connell to Tom Hus- kins touchdown strike and were never headed. Before the half end- ed Michigan added three more touchdowns and a safety for good measure to open up a 30-0 lead. Coach Bill Dodd showed mercy toward the Falcons in the second half, as the reserves took com- mand of the offensive unit. How- ever, the young Wolverines s t i11 struck for two more scores before. the final kun. This game was not a case of one team using its dominance in one facet of the game to pulverize the opposition - Michigan can boast statistics demonstrating superior- ity in all areas. Coach Bill Dodd's game plan of controlling the ball was car- ried out to the letter, as the Wol- verines ran 82 plays, nearly double Bowling Green's 47. The rushing attack, spearheaded by tailback Billy Taylor, ground out 321 yards in a devastating performance, but the surprise of the game was the passing efficiency. Dodd, who generally sticks to the ground game, had his charges put the ball in the air 18 times, completing only 8. However, those passes went for a lot of mileage, covering 166 yards total. Included were the initial scoring strike and a 21 yard touchdown toss from Bruce Elliott to B o b Rosema in the last minute of the first half. In passing the accolades among the frosh, one cannot overlook the superior effort of the defensive unit, which even managed to score one touchdown of its own. All it did was hold Bowling Green to 75 yards total offense, including >nly one first down in the decisive first half. An encouraging note for the Wolverine fans is that Dana Coin made five of six conversion at- tempts, a reversal of recent Mich- igan tradition.

Rose Bowl fever is rampant in Ann Arbor. There's no use denying it-every football fan at Michigan is speculating on the showdown match in Columbus three weeks from now. Likewise, everyone keeps reminding himself that we still have two games to go before that one. Five weeks ago, no one thought that the Wolverines would be title-bound after seven games. And even after the victory over Michi- gan State, many just kept waiting for the bubble to burst. For those who may still be waiting, don't hold your breath. There isn't going to be any letdown by the 1968 Wolverines. For one thing, there really isn't any bubble to burst. The Maize and Blue have been high ever since their first bitter drag on the California reefer opening day. Michigan isn't the kind of team that gets "up" so noticeably for any particular game-it's up -for all of them. When the Wolverines go out on the field to play a team of roughly equal strength (MSU, Indiana, Minnesota), they do it with one conscious purpose in mind. Murder. Cold, calculated, premeditated murder. If there is anything in common about the six straight Michigan victories so far this year, it is that two teams were pretty evenly- matched clubs beforehand--on paper. Michigan is far from a power- house. There simply isn't a whole lot of All-American material wearing Blue this year. Nevertheless, once the game gets under way, the Wolverines are in command. In all four Big Ten wins, Michigan tallied the first touchdown. And, as exemplified by the fourth quarter scores against Michigan State and Indiana, the offense has the ability to come through in the clutch, But enough is being written about the offense by everybody. Dennis Brown, Ron Johnson, Garvie Craw, Jim Mandich. Enough said. It's the defense that is 6-1. Goss, Seymour, Hill, Parks, Pryor, Stincic and Moore are the mainstays of the tackling crew. Goss, Hill, Pryor and Moore, have been the most consistent. Killian, Pierson, Newell, Miklos, and McCoy have also been reliable performers, The defensive backfield firm of Curtis, Hoey, Healy-Wedge, and. Hartman has been good, as expected. . . with two unheralded All-Am The two standouts, though, have to be Curtis and Goss. Neither has had a bad game. Both get better every week Despite stiff na- tional competition, Curtis may be headed for an all-American tag. He needs one more interception to break his own Big Ten mark of seven (shared, by the way, with everyone and his brother, so conference statisticians will be glad if he breaks it.) Goss hasn't gotten the publicity, from the local press or from the football coaches to warrant much of a chance, but he certainy merits attention by those seeking a clue to Michigan's succes this year. And while we're considering unsung heroes, there's always the entire offensive line, which is helping Ron Johnson set the all-time Michigan rushing record. (He needs only 183 more to eclipse Tom Harmon'slong-standing mark of 2134.) Especially foremost have been Stan Broadnax and Bob Penksa, senior blockers who have been effective against everybody. Dave Denzin, long-time understudy of Joe Dayton, has slpped in the starting center shoes competently; and soph Dan Dierdorf and junior Dick Caldarazzo (and his alter ego, Jack Harpring) are surprising starters who were 'ranked in the 'inexperienced' category during pre-season practice. Finally, fankers John Gabler and Paul Staroba, alon with split ends Billy Harris and Jerry Imsland round out the high-flying pass- receiving corps. And let's not forget the consistent punting of Mark Werner. Or the blocking of Warren Sipp. Or the kickoffs by Frank Titas. Or the fabulous tackler on the kickoff squad-Alan Francis. Of the second-string performers, quarterback Don Morhead, halfback Lance Scheffler (one touchdown to date), flanker JiM Betts, fullback Greg Harrison, linebacker Marty Huff, middle guard Jim Wilhite (from Bay City), defensive end Ed Woodley, tight end Mike Hankwit and tackle Werner Hall have been excellent. Many others have turned in better than adequate performances. The rest all have a good attitude. 7 7 6 4 3 3 4 4 3 4 0 0 0 1 1 West Division, 4 51 3 6 2 3 5 1 3 6 1 35 2 14 14 12 9 7 9 8 8 7 7 6 37 34 45 20 28 31 21 25; 20 24 21 24 26 35 21 26 27 27 37 35 20 32 AMERICAN LEAGUE New York Houston Boston Miami Buffalo Kansas City Oakland San Diego Denver Cincinnati Eastern Division W L T Pct.
