The Oakland defense intercepted four passes - three of the pickoffs by rookie safety Charles Phillips. and sacked Denver quarterbacks 10 times. Stabler, despite an erratic evening,. connected repeat- edly with wide receiver Fred Biletnikoff to pave the 'way to Hart's two-yard scoring run in the second period and Banaszak's one-yard burst in the third quarter. Both capped drives of less than 50 yards. Oakland's seventh consecutive victory in the na- tionally televised game raised its record to 10.2 and enhanced the chances of the champions of the Ameri- can Conference West for a home game in the Dec. 27-28 opening round of the play-offs. ..} :tsi:Y :4: S.

Basketball, he said, was s exciting as watching two guys fish." Wrestling is all right, If you can stand watching two guys smelling each other's 'mpits for half an hour." Baseball also felt the sharp edge of Bessone's wit. 11) is a great sport if you're an insomniac. The only atch it is in front of a TV with a couple of beers." "It (base- way I can Well, I think it is safe to say that Amo, who has been coaching in the WCHA for 28 years, is just slightly predujiced owards college hockey. But the weekend series between his team and Dan Farrel's; Michigan Wolverines seemed to support Besson's theories. State's 6-4 victory on Friday and Michigan's 8-4 revenge win on Saturday were both exciting games. Very exciting. And Amo Bessone turned out to be anything but the genial umorist his Friday performance made him out to be. Bessone no gentleman on the ice-he is a street fighter. "He'll beat u anyway he can," said Farrell. "He can intimidate the refs e a Bo Schembechler or a Woody Hayes. Sometimes it seems ey just look the other way when Amo appears to be doing mething against the rules." Despite Bessone's somewhat siady tactics, Michigan State played some obvious weaknesses during the series. They are all, and don't play a very physical game. As a result a player e Angie Moretto can position himself in the slot and use his perior size to keep himself there. If no one checks Moretto front of the goal, he is very effective. ~ uperior conditioning a plits Michigan's superior conditioning also hurt the Spartans, peially in Saturday's game. Farrell's program to get his team good shape physically seems to be paying off. In the third rinod his Wolverines were simply skating past the Spartans- 1 this despite a very long game on Friday and two hard iods on Saturday. But what the Spartans lack more than anything else is depth. Tom Ross and Steve Colp they have the best two man team college hockey. But Michigan's one-two center punch of ortto and Dave Debol is gaing strength all the time. Add a pporting cast that includes Pat Hughes who lived up to his ling as a speed skater this weekend, Kris Manery Doug Lind- og Ben Kawa and Kip Maurer-the sum is a solid three line b.' Debol's performance against State was particularly ex- citing. Time and time again the sophomore walk-on dazzled the crowd with breathtaking displays of skating and stick- andling. He turned one on two breaks into scoring threats. When he scored a goal in the third period on Saturday, beating oth defensemen single-handedly, it was more an inevitability than a surprise. Farrell believes thatihis charges should actually have won th games. "The officiating definitely hurt us. The refs seem to overly cautious in Michigan - Michigan State games. They e too worried about keeping things under control." Indeed, of the 34 penalties that the officials called, half were led after minor scuffles. Many of the calls were questionable, ainly because the same type of penalties were not called in ilar situations against other teams. But it must be pointed out that there were no accusations of rtianship. There were fifteen penalties called against the artans and nineteen against Michigan. Each team received e ten minute misconduct penalty. When the near fights broke t, a simultaneous penalty was usually the result. Because of the relative strength of the two team's power ays, however, the penalties hurt Michigan much more than ate. "The Michigan State power play is unrivalled," noted trrell. "It won the game for them on Friday." Michigan's power play, on the other hand, is a weak link in eir overall picture. As Farrell points out "We just don't get f enough good shots. We'll have to work hard on it." Despite this desparity, Michigan managed to score the cru- il typing goal on a power play Saturday night. They also 4ited State to one power play goal, at one time even over ming a two man deficit for almost a minute. Farrell predicts that State's -- _- - - ower play will be less effe- t ive as the year goes on. 'The offense is always better hn the defense at the begin- ing of the season," he com- nented. "But the defense will :atch up as time goes on. By February the good teams will tart beating Michigan State." So Mr Ferrell was hardly left. May, Indiana's 6-foot-7 All-E American forward, hit 10 of 19 from the field, pulled down a game - high 11 rebounds and handed out five assists. Benson, a 6-11 center, hit 10 of 15 shots and hauled in nine rebounds.w * * * Badgers bomb MADISON, Wis-After a slow first half, captain Dale Koeh- ler finished with 20 points to lead the University of Wiscon- sin to a 97-77 nonconference Still ti'm__e for tickets Students who missed the Sun- day sale of Orange Bowl tic- kets as Crisler Arena can still purchase thetchit at Student' Services on the third floor of the Michigan Union.
