In the wake of Michigan's 49-14 domination, Wildcat quarterback Sa rifled 71 passes to eclipse the NCAA mark of 69 established by Illinois'E in 1980. "I'VE NEVER thrown that much," said the freshman Schwab. "I ti high school but not like that. It's okay, but I'm not going out there to br or anything. Right now I'm just looking towards playing well against W .Northwestern may have set an NCAA mark yesterday for most during a 35 point loss. And, for a guy who claims he's not out there to 1 ds, Schwab's actions certainly contradict his intentions, as he was wh sible for six of the Wildcats' seven hallmarks. " NCAA most pass attempts in a game, 71. " NCAA most completions by a freshman, 45 " NCAA most total offensive plays, 87. " Big Ten most pass completions in a single game, 45. " Northwestern most yards passing in a game, 436. " Northwestern passing yardage for the season, 1,909. 3.5 1 able to pad the Wildcats' passing 39 1 statistics. By that time, the Wolverines were well in control of the game. The first time Michigan got the ball, 0t. 203 3 it drove 60 yards for a touchdown, with 0 25 0 tailback Larry Ricks plunging into the end zone from one yard out for the 2 436 0 score. THE WILDCATS' Steve Tasker took Yds. TD the ensuing kickoff and handed off to 79 2 John Holloway on the reverse. The play did not fool the Wolverines, however, 208 0 and Holloway was tackled at his own 4_s o three-yard line. From there, North- western stormed downfield on the golden arm of Schwab. The freshman Squ rackputthe ball into the air on I. 13of 15 plays to move the Wildcats to the Michigan 12-yard line. a b On the nextaplay from scrimmage, a Northwestern again went to the air: Only this time, the Wolverines' Keith Bostic intercepted it. "I saw it all the way," said Bostic. "I thought I could get the ball and he e media last threw it right to me. I think he thought I o one expec- was blitzing. I fooled him on that. I noticed a change in the defense after ndy Schwab that. We felt more confident." Dave Wilson INDEED, THE Wildcats' offense l never threatened the rest of the half. rea recordsThe Michigan offense, on the other hand 'eak records was just warming up. isconsin." After Bostic's incerception, the records set Wolverines moved 84 yards for a touch- break recor" down with Smith doing the scoring golly respon- honors on an 11-yard jaunt. After Northwestern failed to get a single first down after Ali Haji-Sheikh's kickoff, Michigan again drove straight down the field with the Wildcats' defen- se offering little resistance. This time, the Wolverines moved 86 yards and Smith again capped the drive on a one- yard run. "I FELT GOOD. I felt good all week," said Smith. "So we figured I could run the ball." With the score now 21-0 Smith gave his legs a rest, using his arm to riddle the hapless Northwestern defense. With 3:20 left in the half, Smith dropped back from his own 34 and hit flanker Anthony Carter over the middle. Car- ter then angled toward the sideline where split end Vince Bean leveled Northwestern cornerback Kenneth Woods with a crushing block, giving Carter nothing but clear sailing toward the end zone. the touchdown reception was the 35th of Carter's illustrious college career, breaking the record for sa 4 mm4 Michigan career touchdowns which he had previously shared with Rick Leach. A minute-and-a-half later, Carter ad- ded to his record by beating double coverage to pull in a 29-yard scoring st- rike. "I THINK he's a little more healthy," said Schembechler, noting that Carter has been hampered by nagging injuries all season. "He's running better." Just seven seconds later, the Wolverines' Mike Mallory fell on a fumbled snap at the Wildcat 12. It only took Smith two plays to get the Wolverines into the end zone on a 12- yard pass to tight end Craig Dunaway, making the score 42-0. The second half didn't begin any bet- ter than the first half ended for North- western, either. Three minutes into the third quarter, Schwab threw a sideline pass that was picked off by Bostic - his second of the afternoon - who raced down the sideline for a 54-yard toucl$ down return. "I always wanted to score a touch- down and finally it happened," said Bostic. "When I got into the open I kind of showboated. I waved because I knew I was gone. But that's not my kind of. football." After that, Schembechler started substituting freely and Northwestern was able to score on one-yard runs by Schwab and halfback Ricky Edwards. e- ,..,viMlMr 1 A0 ) I / z 9 ~4 Daily Photo by JEFF SCHRII 49-14 victory over North- In addition, tight end Jon Harvey caught 17 passes for a total of 208 yards to erase the Big Ten mark of 15 recep- tions set by Purdue's Todd Jenkins against the Cats last year. Ironically, the 6-3, 220-pound junior almost did not play in the game. "Harvey played the most courageous football game I've ever seen," said Green after the game. "He's had the flu for the last three days, and his tem- perature has been around 102. He even wore his sweats to bed last night in or- der to sweat out the fever." "My temperature wasn't that high, but 'last night. I barfed in the hotel room," Harvey said. "I was pretty sick yesterdayand Isthought I wasn't going to be able to play. I am just glad I could." Although Green said he was happy with his team's performance, he was disappointed with the 49-14 outcome. "They (the Wolverines) scored the first six times they had the ball," he said. "I think we ran into every good football team. We had a chance on the first run, but couldn't produce. When we're ready to beat a team like Michigan, we'll beat them. We'll train and come back stronger and in two years, .who knows? That's. why Michigan is number one in the Big Ten and expected to go all the way - they are a very physical team."

BIG TEN ROUNDUP: IliiboBagr,29-28 Off the Record BY BOB WOJNO WSKT I I MADISON (AP) - Mike Bass kicked a 46- yard field goal on the game's final play, cap- ping a 479-yard passing performance by Illinois' Tony Eason as the Illini rallied for a wild 29-28 victory over Wisconsin in Big Ten college football yesterday. Wisconsin had taken a 28-26 lead with 52 seconds left when wide receiver Al Toon threw .a 40-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jeff Nault. Wisconsin quarterback Randy Wright threw a lateral to Toon, who was set up in the left flat. Wright bounced the bll into the turf, apparently deceiving the Illini into thinking the play was dead. Toon scooped up the ball and lofted his touchdown pass to Nault, who was behind the coverage at about the 5-yard line. But the Illini struck back to march 51 yards in five plays to set up the field goal by Bass, whose kick after a timeout stunned a crowd of 78,406 at Camp Randall and a regional television audience. Purdue 24, Michigan St. 2.1 EAST LANSING (AP) - Purdue gauarter- back Scott Campbell scored on a one-yard sneak with 1:30 remaining in the game yesterday to give the Boilermakers a 24-21 Big Ten victory over winless Michigan State. The winning drive covered 92 yards in 10 plays. Michigan State, which never had lost five succesive conference games before, had a 21- 14 lead with 3:38 left in (he third quarter after a' four-yard touchdown run by Aaron Roberts and a six-yard scamper by Darin McClelland. However, the Boilermakes got a 25-yard field goal from placekicker Tim Clark with 32 second remaining in the quarter to stay within striking distance. Campbell, who completed 24 of 43 passes for 324 yards, tossed a six-yard scoring strike to Joe Linville in the first quarter. Ohio St. 49, Indiana 25 BLOOMINGTON (AP) - Tailback Tim Spencer ran for two touchdowns and quarter- back Mike Tomszak passed for two more yesterday as Ohio State beat the Hoosiers, 49- 25, in a regionally televised Big Ten Con- ference football game. The Buckeyes, 3-1 in the Big Ten and 4-3 overall, jumped ahead 14-0 in the first quarter on the first of Spencer's two 5-yard touchdown runs and a 72-yard scoring pass to Cedric An- derson. But the passing of Indiana quarterback Babe Laufenberg, who set school records with 34 completions in 56 attempts for 334 yards and all four Indiana touchdowns, kept the Hoosiers in contention much of the contest. A 33-yard touchdown pass to John Boyd and an eight-yarder to Duane Gunn pulled Indiana to 28-13 at halftime. The Ohio State ground at- tack - unstoppable the whole game - then went to work on the Hoosier defense in the third quarter. Tomszack, who also had a 17-yard touchdown pass to Gary Williams, kept theBuckeyes on the ground and moved steadily to the Indiana 20. Big Ten Standings MICHIGAN ..............

Goals by Ted Speers, Chris Seychel and Joe Milburn brought the icers back from a 2- 1 first period deficit, and Notre Dame was never able to fully recover. Seychel later scored the game-winner with 4:23 left in the third period, and superb goaltending by sophomore Mark Chiamp closed the door as Michigan gained its first conference victory of the season. "THAT SECOND period killed us,"Notre Dame coach Charles "Lefty" Smith said. "I'm very pleased that we got five out of six good periods on the road, and we came back in the third period, but a sweep would have been a big boost to the team." Notre Dame jumped out to a 1-0 lead just 3:26 into the game when Steve Hianchi's shot rebounded to John DeVoe, who lifted it -... rsedge past a sprawling Chiamp for the goal. Michigan tied the score just two minutes later. Tom Stiles dug the puck out of the Notre Dame end, and passed to freshman Todd Carlile. Notre Dame goalie Bob Mac- Namara stopped Carlile's slapshot, but could not find the loose puck, and the Wolverines' Don Krussman tipped it in to tie the game. THE FIGHTING Irish closed the first period scoring when Mike Metzler intercep- ted a Steve Yoxheimer pass at the Michigan blue line, and fed sophomore John Deasey for the easy goal, and a 2-1 lead. After Michigan's second period flurry put the icers in front 4-2, the two teams dug in for a third period showdown, in which each squad was penalized three times, and both goalies made spectacular saves to keep the game close. The Irish made it 4-3 just 45 seconds into the final stanza, with Carlile and Notre Dame's Kirt Bjork in the penalty box. Freshman defenseman Mark Benning stole the puck and fed it to Bob Thebeau, who Iris h Press box pillows relieve boredom EVANSTON- Sometime between Michigan's seventh touchdown and Northwestern's first, that three-on-three sandlot game being played behind Dyche Stadium's north end zone scoreboard was beginning to look pretty darn in- teresting. There was this one red-haired kid with a dark blue sweater who was almost unstoppable on a down-and- out to the right corner. And the quarterback, a tall, gangly kid with a red-hooded sweatshirt, wasn't all bad either, though he couldn't compare to the Wildcat's Sandy Schwab, who was flinging the ball around like it was a tainted Tylenol. Seriously though, Michigan's 49-14 victory over Nor- thwestern yesterday, was about as exciting as a weekend in Iowa. I mean, it got so bad the press box crew started passing out pillows midway through the third quarter. Northwestern came into the game with a 2-5 record- which is a championship caliber mark here in Evan- ston-and had everybody convinced that those 69-0 slaughters and 34-game losing streaks were things of the past: Well, if yesterday's first half was any in- dication, the 'Cats haven't come as far as people think they have. The only difference between yesterday's debacle and those from past years is that yesterday's game was a lot more boring. Michigan led 42-0 at the half, and had Bo Schembechler left the first-stringers in for the second half, they'd still be tabulating the point total. "We had a choice of going after them and running it up in the second half or not taking any chances," said Bo, "and we played it conservative. "The only way to get anything out of this kind of game is to go out and run i t up-which I should have done. Then I wouldn't have to answer questions like 'what happened in the second half?' Well, what did happen in the second half? I know the red-haired kid made a nice diving catch on the right sidelines but I have no idea what the heck happened to the Wolverine backups. They played like they were ready to doze off themselves. "No team should come out and do that against us," said defensive back Rich Hewlett, meaning no fresh- man quarterback should complete 45 of 71 passes for 436 yards against the Michigan defense. "It's a little frustrating, we should have shut them out. Our second defense should be able to come in there and keep things going." But it didn't and Schembechler didn't sound pleased when asked if such a game was good for the reserve- "If they don't play better than they did, no," he snarled. While Schwab was passing fancy, Michigan's An- thony Carter was doing some fancy catching, grabbing two scoring passes and in the process becoming the Wolverines all-time touchdown leader. Carter also got into a bit of a shouting match with Northwestern cornerback Kenny Watkins, but the senior flanker ended all talk with a very appropriate comeback. "I just tell them to look at the scoreboard," Carter said. And on the scoreboard was more testimony to the Wolverines' annual late season charge for the title Quarterback Steve Smith, who completed 10 of 12 passes for 203 yards and three touchdowns, seems to be found Mark Doman alone in front of the net for a backhanded goal over the spread- eagled Chiamp. MacNAMARA AND Chiamp traded saves until the 15:37 mark. Michigan was wasting away a power play opportunity, when Brad Tippettworked the puck to defenseman Pat. Goff, who quickly slid the puck to Chris Seychel in the slot. Seychel stuffed his own rebound past a sprawling MacNamara, and the Wolverines led 5-3. From then on the game was all Notre Dame, as the Fighting Irish struggled to come back. Steve Bianchi tipped in a Bjork power-play slapshot at 18:24, but Chiamp held back a final Notre Dame flurry, rob- bing Mark Benning and Bjork on point- blank shorts in the final seconds to preserve the win. "I had faith, and I wasn't giving up," said Chiamp, who was voted the game's second star. "We took it to them in the second period, and that gave me a good rest. I knew it wasn't going in at the end." 1' AU Looking like a Chiamp FIRST PERIOD Scoring: 1. ND-DeVoe (Bianchi, Chapman) 3:26; 1. M- Krussman (Carlile, Stiles) 5:21; 2.
