Attack Fails in Second Half

ByCHUCK VETZNER
A lovely coed in a red cheer-
leading outfit ran up to Preston
Ridlehuber, threw her arms around
him, and happily gushed, "I'm so
proud of y'all."
Ridlehuber readjusted the 'grip
on his apple, embaced his admirer
and tenderly kissed her on the
bheek without a trace of em-
barrassment.
You only blush out of pride
after beating Michigan.
"They were a great team," said
Ridlehuber in reference to the
Wolverines.'
But the Georgia Bulldogs are
getting accustomed to beating
most worthy opponents. Only two
weeks ago, they upset Alabama,
18-17.
"Alabama is like fleas," drawled
Ridlehuber. "They don't hit hard,
but they're fast and there is al-
ways a swarm of them around
you." "Michigan has more talent-
ed individuals than Alabama,"
chipped in Georgia coach Vince
Dooley. "It certainly helps being
the underdog for these kind of
games."
Exuberant Southerners
The Georgia fans were far more
expresive and effusive in praising
their heroes. One fellow with a
bright crimson tie and a, nose ,in
the same shade roared, "This is
the best team Georgia ever pro-
duced. This is the best team the
South ever produced. This is the
best team in the world."
The Bulldog partisans made
their presence known with a wave
of confederate flags and constant
flow of noise. After the game,
one middle-aged Georgia peach
bellowed "You Michigan people
can have your damn niggers." He
then proceeded to smash one
Michigan student in the jaw to
get the point across.
"We came in cars, buses, and
trains," said another fan. "There
were only a thousand of us, but
we had the voices of three thou-
sand."
Wolverines Downcast
Over in the Michigan locker-
room a single voice would have
been audible. Only the splattering
of the showers prevented com-
plete silence.

"Today, they were a better team
than we were," said head coach
Bump Elliott. The way he said
"today," you knew he thought his
team should have won.
The game plan, line coach Tony
Mason explained, had been to run
power plays up the middle. The
strategy worked until fullback
Dave Fisher injured his hip two
plays before the Wolverines tack-
ed up their only score.
Up to that point, Michigan was
controlling the game. Only an il-
legal motion call prevented the
Wolverines from scoring the very
first time they owned the football.
Bad Omen
But the penalty only proved to
be an omen of what was to come.
"We just couldn't get any mo-
mentum," explained Elliott. "We'd
have it one play and then we'd
lose it again. Either it would be
a fumble, an interception, or a
penalty."
"At times we would look good,"
added Mason, "but we couldn't
put everything together. You just
can't win that way against a club
like Georgia."
"There's no way to explain it.
It's just something that happened.
How do you explain a punter
juggling the football or the full-
back fumbling twice after I told
him to hold on with both hands
to make sure he wouldn't lose it?"
Kemp Stars
The punter, Stan Kemp, actual-
ly made the game a defensive
battle despite his bobble which led
to Georgia's first field goal. In
the last three quarters, he punted
five times. All but one were in-
side the Georgia 40-yard line.
Kemp consistently pushed the
Bulldogs deep into their own ter-
ritory as he angled his kicks out
of bounds. He seemed able to
control the flight of the ball the
same way Sandy Koufax controls
his curve on the outside corner.
Several of the punts came from
within possible field goal range.
"I did consider trying that," said
Elliott, "but I decided against it."
One of the primary reasons was
that the Wolverines' long field
goal kicker, Jim Detwiler, re-
injured his knee. The coaching
staff is optimistic that he will
be at full strength next week.
Ward Injured
Also injured was Carl Ward who
hurt his hip. His bruise was the
same as Fisher's. Both will be
ready next Saturday.
The injuries were the marks of
an extremely hard fought foot-
ball game. "They just never
stopped battling," said Elliott.
"They were hitting just as hard
at the end as at the beginning."

But that was all for scoresville.
Michigan gained yardage, often
held excellent field position, but
couldn't score.
Georgia outgained Michigan in

rushed it 174 to 128. Bob Taylor,
a quick-start halfback, lopped off
71 in 13 carries and Ridlehuber
netted 61 in 15. Dave Fisher led
Michigan rushers with 66 in 13
carries, all in first half.
One telling statistic reveals
Georgia's ability to control the
action. The Bulldogs reeled off 41
plays to Michigan's 22 in the sec-
ond half. Ball control, Michigan's
formula, squirted back in the Wol-
verines' faces.
Well, that's tricks. Next week
the real reason begins. And Mich-
igan is still a team in search of a
jell.

NIGHT EDITOR:

-Daily-Richard Cooper
CONVERGING ON A LONE pigskin, Wolverines and Bulldogs prepare to pounce after Michigan full-
back Tim Radigan fumbled in yesterday's Michigan loss. Unfortunately, the enemy defenders proved

more alert than the Wolverines
the ball only once.
Ridlehuber explained t h a t
Georgia weather had something
to do with the tenacious play. "We
were in great shape for this
game," he bubbled. "We. had to
practice in the heat and humidity,
we had stamina, and when the
weather is cool, you can go harder
a lot longer."
Ridlehuber himself was also in
superb condition. He demonstrat-
ed it in his 22-yard-long, 50-yard-
wide run that set up the winning
score in the fourth quarter.
Sprint-Out Keeper
The play was intended to be an
old-fashioned sprint-out keeper
play to the left, but it turned into
an unorthodox charge around
right end before it was over. "That
play looked like a punt return,"
fumed Mason.
Ridlehuber analyzed his antics
differently. "When I went left, I
saw (Bill) Yearby and (Frank)
Nunley were patallel with me in-
stead of trailing me. Then I knew
no one was behind me, so instead
of trying to get around those two,
I just went the other way."
He shore did and the results
were unpleasant from the Michi-
gan point of view.
One play that just missed was a
long second down pass to tight
end Steve Smith, who had pranced
