...Florida's Steve Spurrier, 21, and Richard Trapp, 20, have a simple system of signals: whenever Flanker Trapp sees that he is not being "double-teamed"-meaning covered by two defensive backs-he nods to Quarterback Spurrier, who immediately throws to him. A 9.8-sec. sprinter who is most dangerous on flat passes, Trapp has caught 31 passes for 489 yds. and six touchdowns, is one of the main reasons Florida is ranked No. 8 in the nation. Frank Jackson, an end on the pro Miami Dolphins, says Spurrier is "already better than a bunch of passers in both...
...both tops in the nation. The closest call experienced all year by the unbeaten, No. 3-ranked Bruins came at Rice, when they trailed 24-16 with a little more than three minutes to go. Quarterback Beban threw a 33-yd. pass that was deflected by two Rice defenders; Flanker Busby, a 9.4-sec.-dash man, flashed behind the defenders, leaped, and snared the ball for a touchdown. A 2-point conversion and a last-minute field goal rescued U.C.L.A. from near disaster 27-24. "It sure helps to have fast ones out there to receive," says Beban, who runs...
...famed Russian bells rang out as Lowell celebrated its first football victory in three years, 18-0, over Dunster. The Bellboys were sparked by the addition of sophomore quarterback Sandy Putnam, who threw two scoring passes to flanker Phil Bragsted, and ran for the third touchdown...
...threw 13 yds. for a third. Against Missouri last week, he completed eleven out of 20 passes, for 204 yds. Even so, he is hardly a one-man team. Halfback Farr is a legitimate All-America candidate who has aver aged 6 yds. per carry so far this season. Flanker Harold Busby is a threat to go all the way any time he gets his hands on one of Beban's passes-because he runs the 100-yd. dash in 9.4 sec. Tackle John Richardson (254 Ibs.) and Guard Larry Agajanian (232 Ibs.) supply the beef for a gang...
...good 60 yds. in the air. New York's second touchdown came on a rollout: whirling suddenly, Namath flipped the ball back across the field to Fullback Matt Snell, who ambled 25 yds. Tight End Pete Lammons was Joe's target-a 13-yarder-and then Flanker Don Maynard put on a show of his own. Don caught one TD pass (55 yds.), gathered in a second (37 yds.), barely missed a third when he broke loose in a corner of the end zone, where the ground sloped down 3 ft. Otherwise perfect, Namath's pass sailed...
