Michigan won
so why worry
NO ONE CAN ever say that Bo Schembechler isn't kind to his
opponents. Not after he took the trouble to say that he was
concerned about this week's game with Virginia.
After the way that the Michigan football team, especially the
defense, handled Northwestern Saturday it was just pure kind-
ness that led him to express concern about the contest. Because
there's just no reason for him to worry.
No one would say that the Wolverines played a perfect
game against the Wildcats. But considering that it was the
opener and that Northwestern should be a pretty good team
once they eliminate some mistakes, the Michigan perform-
ance was one to be pleased with.
Especially the way the defense shut the door on the Wildcats.
"The most pleasing thing about the game was the defense," Bo
commented. "We gave Northwestern the ball in good field posi-
tion early in the game and the defense refused to let them in."
The Wildcats did score one toucrdown, but Schembechler
doesn't fault his defenders for letting them reach the endzone.
The points were scored after Northwestern picked up a long gain
on a pass interference penalty, and Schembechler feels that it
was a mistaken call.
"Tom Darden made a good play on that pass," he asserted.
"He had a right to go for the ball when he did, but it was a
judgment call for the referee." The penalty put the Wildcats
close to the Michigan goal, and they scored on a good catch by
Johnny Cooks.
Other than giving up six points, the defense didn't make
many mistakes. Sophomore Dave Gallagher started in place
of Fred Grambau at defensive tackle and the Wildcats tried
to pick on him. But they didn't succeed. When Alex Agase
called Schembechler yesterday morning for a post game dis-
cussion he commented on the good job that the sophomore
did.
The entire defensive team was placed in the Victor's Club
for limiting the opposition to six points. Frank Gusich was the
defensive player of the week for his two interceptions and one
fumble recovery. In addition, Schembechler had praise for
Tom Beckman, Mike Keller and Randy Logan. Beckman and
Keller won notice for the way they harassed Northwestern
quarterback Maurie Daigneau. Both dropped him for a loss, as
did Logan.
Logan is an ex-wingback who, according to Schembechler,
did well in his first game as a defensive halfback. "We could
tell that Logan was a defensive player," Bo explained. "He
wasn't going to play on offense and he is too good to be a back-up
so he was moved and he did a good job."
Logan was only one of the two player switches that paid
off Saturday. The other was with Bo Rather who was
switched from the defensive backfield to split end. He proved
that the move was wise by rushing for 49 yards in three
carries on the end-around and gaining another 26 yards with
three pass receptions.
In addition he made a smart fumble recovery for the Wol-
verines that resulted in a touchdown. Not a bad debut, but
Schembechler expects him to get better. "We wanted great speed
in the split man and Rather's got it. We expect him to improve
as he gains experience."
The sophomore quarterback didn't make as an auspicious
entrance, but he got the job done. He played most of the game
with a minor leg injury picked up early in the game but man
aged to move around enough to get the ball to his running backs.
His passing was not impressive, but as Schembechler said, "I
think that Casey is a much better quarterback than he played."
The weak passing didn't make much difference knyway as it
really wasn't part of the planned attack. "I was not going to
turn him loose," Schembechler explained. "The game just
meant too much."
As a result Michigan stuck to the ground. Most of the Wol-
verine yardage was ground out in short runs which meant that
tailback Bill Taylor had a busy day. The senior carried the ball
28 punishing times, gaining 105 yards. Wingback Glenn Doughty,
who used to share the halfback duties with Taylor, could have
helped out, but he' was needed for other things. "We needed
short yardage," Schembechler commented, "and Doughty saves
us with his blocking. I intended to give him the ball more and
will in the future but he had to block."
Doughty and Taylor were both named to the offensive
Victor's Club as were Rather, Paul Seymour, Guy Murdock
and Fritz Seyferth. Sophomore Ed Shuttlesworth was im-
pressive at fullback, but Schembechler was very pleased
with Seyferth's performance. Murdock was named offensive
player of the week in a close race with Rather. The center
had a very good blocking percentage, impressive since he
has to snap the ball before getting set to block.
The Wolverine's were penalized eight times for 87 yards in
the game, but Schembechler felt that only one of them was a
good call. He was willing to admit that the offensive offside
penalty was legitimate, but the others, like the one for having
an illegal receiver downfield, were wrong.
