The Cowboys look like they might finally break through this season. This new offensive backfield is really impressive and young. Craig Morton (in place of Don Meredith) is just 26; halfback Calvin Hill (in place of Craig Baynham) is 22, and fullback Walt Garrison (in place of Don Perkins) is 25.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-53294439280877338372016-08-28T16:51:31.975-04:002016-08-28T16:51:31.975-04:00The Cowboys started 4-0, and then they got back Bo...The Cowboys started 4-0, and then they got back Bob Hayes from injury.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-82851875452212606872016-08-28T16:48:50.690-04:002016-08-28T16:48:50.690-04:00Rest in peace, Andy Musser.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Musser" rel="nofollow">Rest in peace, Andy Musser.</a>Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-17244980847077444232016-08-28T16:47:48.934-04:002016-08-28T16:47:48.934-04:00The Cowboys are coming off a 49-14 victory over Ph...The Cowboys are coming off a 49-14 victory over Philadelphia, which <a href="https://youtu.be/rSnkHea8r-M" rel="nofollow">somehow, per Andy Musser, qualified as the <i>NFL Game of the Week</i></a>.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-18461746612031633332015-11-08T18:30:03.522-05:002015-11-08T18:30:03.522-05:00Spurrier, the big Heisman Trophy winner, led the 4...Spurrier, the big Heisman Trophy winner, led the 49ers to a 24-21 win over Baltimore as John Brodie sat out with an injury.

Hoptown apparently held. But the official farthest from the play, he was actually all the way across the field, dropped the flag. Two other officials right on top of the play signaled no infraction, but the call stood up.<br /><br />Murray retained possession for another series of downs and although it didn't score, Hoptown had lost its last chance to win it.<br /><br />It was indeed a bitter defeat for the luckless Tigers and prompted a disappointed Fleming Thornton to remark, "There just doesn't seem to be any justice."</i>Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-73921377094908803542015-11-02T15:36:16.644-05:002015-11-02T15:36:16.644-05:00Russellville beat Trigg, 12-6, as Trigg's star...Russellville beat Trigg, 12-6, as Trigg's star halfback, Eddie Radford, was injured in the second quarter, having already totaled 119 yards rushing.

Madisonville took the verdict for a very simple reason. It did a better job of stopping Tilghman's fine passing game than the Tornado did of checking Alfred Collins.<br /><br />The remarkable sophomore back for the Maroons tallied all four of his team's touchdowns while rushing for 155 yards on 36 carries. The winners led 13-0 at intermission and ran the lead to 19-0 before Tilghman got on the scoreboard. ...<br /><br />The duel of unbeatens at Madisonville saw the 180-pound Collins at his running best. His punt and kickoff returns spelled trouble for Tilghman all night.<br /><br />Paducah scored both its touchdowns on passes as quarterback Ron Kelley hit on 10 of 20 aerials for 178 yards. The Tornado running game was completely stymied.
