LOS ANGELES-It wasjust
like old times last night, as
Michigan handed a crushing
26-9 defeat to sixth-ranked
UCLA before 57,129 spectators
at the Los Angeles Coliseum.
While it may be a little too
early to order your Rose Bowl
tickets, you can rest assured
that the Wolverines are not
the pushovers t h a t many
cynics said they would be.
"It was a key game for us,"
Coach Bo Schembechler said after
the game. "We had to prove we
could move the football and we
did. We are going to get better
and our players will get better."
In walloping the Bruins, Mich-
igan officially ended its myster-
ious "Southern California Jinx."
The Wolverines were upset in their
last two visits here, by Southern
Cal and Stanford in the 1970 and
1972 Rose Bowls.
Two-point underdogs a g a i n s t
UCLA, the Wolverines ground out
381 yards on the ground and spiced
their attack with four key pass
completions, all thrown by sopho-
more quarterback Dennis Franklin.
Powerhouse fullback Ed Shuttles-
worth was the big workhorse of
the game, carrying 24 times for
115 yards and two touchdowns. He
was named offensive player of the
game.
Harry Banks, fleet but petite
tailback, rambled for 78 yards in
16 carries, and Franklin gained 68

the Spartans a chance or seven.
yards, mostly on option plays.
Michigan was as 'up' for the
game as a team could be. In an
attempt to psych the team, Coach
Schembechler kept his squad at
the same hotel they stayed at for
both Rose Bowl defeats. And Fri-
day evening, the team worked out
under the lights in the Rose Bowl,
where Schembechler gave his play-
ers an emotional pep talk.
"I don't have to tell you about
this place (the Rose Bowl)," he
told them quietly. "We're not go-
ing to let anyone push us around
on this trip!"
Apparently everything worked.
The Wolverine defense held the
Bruins to just one touchdown, a
one-yard drive by James McAllis-
ter in the third quarter, but ny
then, Michigan already led 20-3,
and dominated the game until the
final gun.
Ba added, "We knew we had to
control the ball, because they have
two great backs. They are one of
the finest offensive teams we've
seen, and we could not afford to
let them get possession of the
ball."
The Wolverines did execute clas-
sic ball control. Their four touch-
down drives consumed 74, 60, 80,
and 53 yards, mainly on the ground,
and eating up valuable time.
Michigan iced the game with a
drive in the fourth quarter that
consumed over seven minutes, but
ended on the UCLA 12 when the
Wolverines stalled on fourth down.
Michigan stayed mainly on the
ground, but took advantage of two
Franklin pass completions to
score touchdowns the first two
times it had the ball.
UCLA received the opening kick-
off, but the Mark Harmon-led of-
fense was stymied by the Wol-,
verine defense. Kermit Johnson
was blasted by Fred Grambau on
the first play,. and Harmon re-
covered his own fumble to put the
Bruins in a deeper hole.
Bruce Barnes' punt rolled out of
bounds at the Wolverine 26-yard
line and the Michigan machine got
itself in gear.
With third and three on the
Michigan 33, Franklin hummed a
pass over the middle to tight end
Paul Seal for 10 yards to keep the
Michigan drive alive.
Schembechler called on big Ed
Shuttlesworth to power for 27 yards
in six carrys during the drive,
while the Michigan line was slic-
ing giant holes in the Bruin de-
fense.
With third and six on the UCLA
14, Franklin kept the ball and
scrambled behind left tackle Paul
Seymour for seven yards and a
key first down.
Two plays later, fleet wingback
Clint Haslerig swept left behind
blocks by Banks, Tom Coyle and
Shuttlesworth for Michigan's first
touchdown. Mike Lantry booted
the extra point and the Wolverines
took a 7-0 lead.
After Lantry's kickoff, Michi-
gan again held UCLA, this time
dumping the Bruins for minus five
yards.
The Wolverines took over, and
promptly mounted another touch-
down drive. Michigan looked to be
in trouble, with third and five on
the' Bruin 42, but Franklin again

pass to Bo Rather in the right flat.
Shuttlesworth continued to power,
and broke loose once for an 18-
yard ramble.
From the UCLA ten-yard line,
Haslerig carried around left end
for five, and Branks took the ball
down to the one. On third and two'
Shuttlesworth was stopped up the
middle, but on the first play of the
second period, Banks took a pitch
and flew around left end for the
second touchdown.
Lantry's extra point attempt
was wide, so Michigan led 13-0.
UCLA's three first half points
came on an Efren Herrera 39-yard
field goal.

changed the first time Tech had the ball. The
Yellow Jacket signal caller tossed a 77-yard
bomb to fleet-footed Jim Robinson paving the
way for a 21-16 triumph over the downtrod-
den Michigan State Spartans.
McAshan confused the highly touted Spar-
tan defense all day long making shambles
of Duffy Daugherty's zone coverage.
All told, McAshan hit on 16 of 26 attempts
for 239 yards and two touchdowns.
Daugherty was emotionally drained in
the comber Spartan dressing rooms after the
game. "Tech shocked us on the very first
play and we stayed shocked all day," spelled
! out the usually humorous Spartan coach.
But there was very little to be happy about
in the Spartan camp as the wishbone of-
fense sputtered for the second consecutive
week. "I just can't understand our lack of
consistency on offense," Duffy continued,
Jim Owings in the end zone hit him right
on the numerals but defensive back Mark
Niesen jarred Owings from the ball prevent-
ing a two touchdown Yellow Jacket lead.
On the ensuing play, Cam Bonifay's 38-
yard field goal attempt was wide.
State continued to struggle as the rushing
segment of the wishbone was successful but
the passing was not. Mihaiu was gaining
yardage in chunks on the keepers, but his
favorite target tight end Billy Joe Du Pree
was unable to latch on to the ball. "I don't
know how many passes we dropped," added
dejected Duffy.
It was even tougher for Duffy to take as
he has claimed DuPree the best tight end in
the country.
The Spartans broke the ice in the second
anrter on Mary Roberts 21-yard field goal.
The drive, starting on the Spartan 27, was
highlighted by Mihaiu's 51-yard sweep. .
Before Mihaiu could complete his first
pass, Tech grabbed a 14.3 lead. Tech drove
82 yards in 11 plays going most of the dis-
tance in the air. Highly touted safeties Bill
Simnson and Brad Van Pelt were beaten
regularly but the touchdown play fooled the
entire crowd of 77,141 - the largest opening
day crowd in Spartan history.

Yellow Jacket lead to 21-9.
State immediately held Tech's next drive
and the comeback was for real.
