During the first five minutes of play the University team's line was put on the defensive inside its 5-yard line for the first time this season. One of Corbett's kicks was blocked. Roberts picked up the ball and dashed for the goal line 30 yards away, but he was tackled by Morrison on the 3-yard line.
