Seconds later, Moore lowers his camera and looks in horror as, 100 yds. away, the tan blur of a 100-m.p.h. tornado wind crosses the road on which the truck is parked. That wind could easily send it rolling end over end like a kid's toy. Moore dashes into the cab, Moyer on his heels. "Get in!" he screams. "That son of a bitch is coming right at us! Now! Let's go!"

Harvard kicker Gary Bosnic had missed a 30-yd. field goal with 1:14 left in the game and now Brown was assured of a 31-30 victory in a struggle that eddied back and forth between two evenly matched teams...
