Broken

7M'

offense

Don Moorhead really knows
what he's talking about.
After Michigan's 45-7 triumph
over Washington last week the
junior quarterback pointed out
the significance of psychology
in football.
"Psychology was a great fac-
tor in our game against Wash-
ington. In the first half we were
able to build up a momentum
that carried over into the second
half. The reverse happened to
Washington. It hurt their team
morale."
Little did he know how the
same psychology would influ-
ence the Wolverine's perform-
ance against Missouri Satur-
day. Only working against them
this time.
After the first quarter, in
which Michigan outplayed the
Tigers, the men of Missouri
came back in the second quarter

to completely break the Wol-
verine's spirit in a way that
damaged Michigan for the rest
of the game.
In the first period the Wol-
verine offense managed to out
rush the Tigers 72 yards to 20
yards and out pass them 28 to 9,
piling up almost four times as
much yardage. For their ef-
fort Michigan earned seven
first downs to Missouri's one,
which was due to two consecu-

tive offside penalties against
Michigan.
The Wolverines missed leav-
ing the quarter with a 6-0 lead
by an inch when Tim Killian's
field goal attempt hit the goal
post and bounced off.
But the catastrophic second
quarter killed any hopes of
carrying on the momentum
built up earlier. Not only
couldn't the Michigan offense
complete a pass, but they ran

up a negative 16 yards and
fumbled three times for Mis-
souri take overs.
As Coach Bo Schembechler
so appropriately exclaimed,
"that second quarter was a
nightmare. I wouldn't have be-
lieved it unless I was there. You
.just can't turn the ball over
that many times and expect to
win."
Schembechler explained how
the continuous series of errors
effected the team. "We started
out real well. It was our game
for the first quarter.
"But Moorhead opened t h e
second period with a fumble,
Glen Doughty then fumbled the
next time we got the ball, Mis-
souri intercepted a pass a n d
finally (Bill) Taylor fumbled at
the end of the period.
"It was one miseake a f t e r
another. It seemed like every-
thing backfired. We just gave
too much away in the second
quarter.
"That field goal and one of
the touchdowns were gifts.
They also succeeded in break-
ing our draw play, which was
tough on us.
"I thought we would be able
to' come back and win it in the
second half when we got our
last two touchdowns, but we
didn't. It's always tough when
you're down 17 points and have
only a little time left. If we had
played a mistake-proof game it
would have been snug."
Schembechler's feelings about
the offense's performance show-
ed up in the selection of mem-
bers for this week's Victor's
Club. Against Vanderbilt there
were 13 chosen, and just one
less when the Wolverines beat
Washington. But this week only
UIf M

two, tackle Jack Harpring and
back John Gabler earned status
in the club. Harpring also won
the offensive championship
award of the week.
In contrast, Schembechler
felt "the defensive unit should
not be faulted at all. They made
a real good performance. Des-
pite giving up 40 points, it was
the best defensive show they've
made."
Looking forward to Michi-
gan's Big Ten opener against
Purdue this week Schembechler
commented, "the defense will
face a greater test than they
did against Missouri. Quarter-
back Mike Phipps is a brilliant
guy, and all the skilled posi-
tions are well manned.
The new coach will be look-
ing for a revenge win against
the Boilermakers for a g a m e
they swiped from him when he
was chief mentor of the Miami
Redskins. After the defeat in
1965 he brought his team back
to take six wins in a row and
the Mid American Conference
Championship. He'll be looking
for a similar comeback Satur-
day.
"We're not going to change
personnel or try anything new
besides slight variations of our
basic pattern," Schembechler
commented about preparing for
the match.
"But I'm a strong believer
that what a team does on Satur-
day is the same as they've done
all week, so if anyone drops the
ball during practice this week
they better run 'to the nearest
portal of the stadium."
He then summed it up, "prac-
tices will definitely be more
exuberant this week."

NewYork gfoes wil
as dream comes true
NEW YORK R-The incredible New York Mets, baseball's
rag tag clowns for seven long years, made it all the way to
the top yesterday by winning the National League pennant
with a third straight playoff victory 7-4 over the stunned
Atlanta Braves.
Wayne 'Red" Garrett, an Atlanta farmhand drafted by
the Mets for $25,000 last December, delivered the killing blow,
a two-run homer in the fifth inning that put the Mets ahead
for keeps. Garrett had hit only one homer all year and batted
but .218.
Nolan Ryan, the fireballing 22-year-old right-hander who
commuted between the Mets and a Texas army camp all
summer, bailed out starter

Orioles smash Twins;
climax playoff sweep

MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL (AP
Paul Blair and Don Buford crack-
ed nine hits between them and the
rampaging Baltimore O r i o 1 e s'
charged into the 1969 World Series
yesterday, completing a three-
game American League playoff
sweep with an 11-2 romp over the
Minnesota Twins.
The Orioles will open the series,
at home Saturday, facing the New
York Mets, who also swept their
National League playoff against
the Atlanta Braves.
Monday's clincher was a com-'
plete opposite from the first hvo
games of the series --both p~itcher's
duels which stretched into extra
innings.
The Orioles rattled 18 hits
around Metropolitan Stadium,
eight of them for extra bases.!
Blair, who had five hits, drove
in five runs, two of them on a
407-foot home run in the eighth
inning and Ellie Hendricks drove'
in three runs with a pair of dou-!
bles.

Seven Minnesota pitchers took
the pounding while Baltimore's
Jim Palmer rode the heavy hit-
ting to an easy victory. He scat-
tered 10 hits-two of them run-
scoring singles by Rich Reese,
But after Reese drove in a Min-
nesota run in the bottom of the
first, the Orioles struck back in'

the second.
