THAT IS ONE OF the factors which made the 1980 Wolverines so unique. The Rose Bowl victory itself was of a very unique nature. In the past, Schembechler and the Wolverines have made a habit of out- playing their opposition between the 20- yard lines only to lose the so-called "big games" by failing to convert on the key plays, through plain bad luck, or through a bit of both. Against Washington, the Blue made 'We wanted to go out there and give Bo a win in the Rose Bowl . . . It would mean a lot.' -senior center George Lilja all the big plays. Perhaps none was bigger than the fourth down, goal line stand Michigan executed midway through the first period. With Huskie quarterback Tom Flick displaying a bit of the marvelous passing touch which the national and international television audience was to see all after- noon, Washington marched from its own 36 to the Wolverine four, where it was second-and-goal. But two plays later, the Huskies had only advanced three yards, and fullback Toussaint Tyler came up just shy on his valiant dive, preserving the young Michigan defense's streak of not allowing a touchdown in 18 quarters (22 by game's end). There were other big plays as well-plays uncharacteristic of a Michigan bowl performance: One of Don Bracken's worst punts of the season which bounced for a Rose Bowl record of 73 yards ; an interception by cornerback Brian Carpenter at the Wolverines' eight-yard line to kill a second Huskie drive; and time con- straints at the end of the first half which forced Washington to settle for its second field goal. Thus, instead of trailing by a touch- down or two, Michigan went into half- time, amazingly, on top, 7-6. And the stage was set for the Butch Woolfolk-led (182 yards) second half romp. The victory provided retribution for many of the players, as well as for Bo. Quarterback John Wangler, who com- pleted 12 of 20 aerials for 145 yards and a touchdown, took the game's meaning a step further. "I wouldn't trade the past five years for anything," Wangler said. "I've come through the program and made a lot of friends here. We've grown to be a close-knit team, and I think that helped us in working toward, first, the Big Ten championship, and then the Rose Bowl. "There are so many guys who went through the program and came up short. I wanted to win it for those guys-guys like (Ron) Simpkins, (Cur- tis) Greer-they came so close to win- ning a bowl game." But the bottom line is that the 1980 Michigan Wolverines will be remem- bered as the unit which gave Bo Schembechler his first bowl victory af- ter seven defeats. And for many of the players, that alone was enough.

Woolfolk, who was named the game's Most Valuable Player, carried the ball 26 times for 182 yards and one touchdown. During the regular season, Woolfolk was the Wolver- ines' leading ball carrier, rushing for 860 yards on 170 carries.

While classes were recessed for the holidays, the Wolverines roared through five non-conference games and came clear with only one loss. Michigan's only defeat was in the finals of the Great Lakes Invitational Tournament as it bowed to' Michigan Tech 3-2, in overtime. But that was the only bad part of the tournament for the Wolverines. Besides taking second, Michigan defeated rival Michigan State, and right wing Ted Speers, defenseman' John Blum and goalie Paul Fricker were named to the all-tournament team. Fricker was also honored as Most Valuable Player of the tourney. The Wolverines handed the Spartans a 3-2 loss for the second time this season, as Speers scored two goals. Michigan is now 2-1 against the East Lansing team this season. Giordano was pleased with the in- dividual performances. "He (Fricker) has matured into a solid goaltender.

WASHINGTON 769-8591 is playing consistently better and bet- ter," he said. But the coach attributes the Wolverines' success thus far to team contributions. "The key (to recent success) is that we're making slow and steady .progress and every one is making a team contribution. We have played with character. We stuck together," said Giordano. Just after classes had ended, Michigan played Toronto at Yost Ice Arena. Giordano claimed before the series that his players would not be giving their sharpest performance because of the oncoming finals and the emotional drain of playing North Dakota the week before. The series seemed to hold true to his words. Despite sloppy play on both sides Michigan edged Toronto twice in over- time by the score of 4-3. In 1981 the Wolverines have played only one game. They defeated Windsor Saturday night, 6-0. All the victories over the break brought Michigan's non-conference 'record to 13-7. In the Western Collegiate Hockey Association the team is curren- tly tied with Wisconsin. Both teams 'have conference records of 7-5. On top in the WCHA are Denver, North Dakota and Minnesota, all tied with 8-4 con- ference records. The Wolverines play the Badgers in Wisconsin this weekend. "We're leery of Wiscopsin. They have great offensive skills," said Giordano, but he added, "We are hoping to win two." The Wolverines split a series with Wiscon- sin earlier in the season at Yost. 6 6 00 Y Z Y Z a a6 CASCADE DOWN 65/35 Cloth Shell $112.00 JUnMAY I P.mbULA 65/35 Cloth Shell $100.00 ALL COATS DON' PL4 LREM E T GAMBLE AY THE ODDS 15-40/ at the OFF EMBER MICHIGAN SHOP 1 st floor of the Michigan Union January 7th-30th 20% off all III I ll I i III III .
