...never been a picnic, the annual football ferocity between the University of Texas Longhorns and the Oklahoma Sooners. But this year it was strictly M*A*S*H for Texas quarterbacks.

The second-string signal caller lasted longer-nine plays-before he too went down with a torn knee. From the farthest reaches of the Texas bench came Randy McEachern, a senior quarterback who had sat out last season...

Miller and cohorts Pat Carreon and Mike Jacobs could complete but two passes for 59 yards. The ground game wasn't much better, garnering but 80 yards...

...still another surprise win at Franklin Field, handing Dartmouth (4-3, 5-4) its third razor-thin loss of the fall, 7-3. The Big Green nearly pulled it out in coach Jake Crouthamel's finale, driving to the Penn two-yard line in the last quarter before quarterback Buddy Teevens' fourth down keeper came up inches short of the first down...
