🏈1987 #5 Miami (Fl) @ #10 Arkansas

miami is quarterback university first it was kelly who rewrote the record book cozart followed and set new standards for the hurricanes then tessa verdi who shattered all the marks again the newest rising star is steve walsh a sophomore who lacks the great arm but seems to have all the other qualities to be a very good college quarterback all-american defensive end daniel stubbs leads an exceptional defense a unit that may be strong enough to carry jimmy johnson to another shot at a national title this could be the best arkansas team ken hatfield has had since taking over as head coach the defense is anchored by the quickest nose guard in all of football all-american tony jericho the hogs call their wishbone halfbacks their best in a decade junior james rouse is averaging almost five yards a carry while another junior joe johnson already has 14 career touchdowns it's a party atmosphere when the team comes from fayetteville to little rock and the fans come from all over the state to see their beloved razorbacks war memorial stadium has been a great place to play for the razorbacks they have won 10 straight here going back to the start of the 1984 season that shouldn't bother miami though the hurricanes have won 15 straight regular season games on the road against great opposition under jimmy johnson good afternoon everybody mike patrick along with lee corso and it's great to have you with us from miami against arkansas you just saw what a great team miami has been on the road over the years but you have to remember that their sophomore quarterback steve walsh has never started a game on the road before quarterback walsh has got to make sure he plays within his own abilities and not try to win this game early by himself most important he's got to avoid an early interception so that crowd will get on him and then there'll be a lot of pressure on him now he is going to be going against a very good and a very complicated arkansas defense arkansas uses the same defense that penn state did to beat miami in the fiesta bowl they keep everything inside of the players and in front of them and then they punish those receivers and try to force them to drop the football no the people in arkansas think the key to this is for their offense to keep the ball away from miami and they have to do it against a great miami defense arkansas is going to try to run the football keep the clock going make some first downs stay as close as they can to the fourth quarter and hope this little rock crowd can win it for him should be a great ball game number seven miami against 10th ranked arkansas in front of a sellout crowd from war memorial stadium in little rock live cfa football is being brought to you by michelob so exceptionally smooth the night belongs to michelob buy good news plus with the louvre smooth strip for extra smoothness and comfort only from gillette and by the people of rockwell international where science gets down to business let's get you back out now to little rock where they scream pig suey you've been working on that i'm sure lee corso absolutely uh the university of miami wide outs against the arkansas defensive backs that should be a big matchup early number nine brian blades and number 47 mike irvin great players with great speed watch them to go deep early arkansas must run the football especially inside with their fullbacks number 21 sammy van dyken number 18 freshman barry foster big big plays inside necessary for arkansas to win this ball game jimmy johnson on the sideline in his fourth year with miami he has won 30 games and was the captain of the national championship team here at arkansas in 1964 and his teammate on that ball club was fred hatfield the head coach at arkansas or ken hatfield excuse me who led the nation in punt returns two years in a row including that 1964 national championship team at arkansas kendall traynor will start the ball game off as miami will receive the opening kickoff and there's a look at trainer the deep receivers number three randall hill number 21 alex johnson this has been a tough tough ticket a lot of scalping activity this stadium seat 53 250 and it's been a sellout forever hill six yards deep and miami will start from its own 20-yard line they'll be led by sophomore quarterback steve walsh who hit 63 percent of his passes in the opening game behind him number 24 warren williams the senior and melvin bratton number five he's the fullback brian blades and michael irvin quality wide receivers charles henry is also a great tight end o'neill and patchem are the offensive tackles the interior line sullivan and proven with the guards rod holder a 254 pound sophomore is the starting center and now alfredo roberts number 87 will come in and start at tight end for henry they alternate and the pro scouts say that both of them are in the top 10 of all tight ends in college football it's not a bad tandem to have walsh does not have the gun that kozar had or any of the other miami quarterback stars but he's very smart and he wants to throw on first down throws under an incomplete intended for alfredo is tight end eric witted the closest man on coverage for arkansas let's take a look at that razorback defense the interior of the defensive line jericho it's an all-american at the nose guard the outside linebackers carry owens number 54 and albert harris number 68 he also lines up as a defensive lineman eric wood and ricky williams the inside linebackers both tough the corners richard brothers and anthony cooney and we'll get the rest of the secondary in a minute listen to that crowd delay to bretton he's got a big hole melvin bratton up to the 28-yard line brothers and cheruko in on the tackle for arkansas and there are the corners richard brothers and anthony cooney they really like brothers high school track star in the sadies atwater is as good as it gets along with otis floyd number 36. third down two yards to go miami with a ball of its own 28-yard line throws under incomplete in and out of the hands of alfredo roberts a little low for him and water on the coverage and arkansas has held on its first possession the arkansas team loves to play in little rock the fans go crazy there is john bland deep to receive the punt he's back there because tim horton is injured the normal punt returner and jeff beagles who gets it away very quickly is here to punt spirals one out of there and it takes an arkansas bounce and will be downed near midfield so a great black great break for the razorbacks after a kick of only 26 yards jimmy johnson on the sideline and he will have to have his defense stop this man greg thomas the senior quarterback who runs the flexbone offense he can give it off to one of three guys johnson aroused the halfbacks sammy van dyke the senior fullback the receivers donny center the lone wide out and billy winston the tight end he's a good one the tackles jones at 289 beckett at 272. the interior line is awesome stitten and childress combined 652 pounds brian white the center at 288. the option the pitch back goes to rouse and rouses across midfield into miami territory to the 44 knocked down by free safety benny blades the defensive ends for miami stubs is an all-american the tackles greg bark normally a backup defensive end is starting at one tank along with derwen jones the linebackers myra in the middle will soon be the all-time tackler for this club the secondary is as good as it gets donald ellis and tolbert bain benny blades and selwyn brown are the safeties blades in all america second and a yard to go and they give it to van dijk looks like he has the first down at the miami 42 yard line george myra on the tackle myra is one of those guys who they said when he came in and first started he doesn't have any talent at all they keep looking for somebody to replace him he is going to be the number one tackler of all time for this club he is one of the examples of somebody who might not be able to play pro ball but is a great college player he's got a great heart that's what make him a great player to the 31-yard line first down arkansas benny blades had to make the stop from the safety position again well you get a chance to watch a triple angle from a low angle lots of quarterback thomas as he comes down he reads the fullback van dyke number 21 he pitches to 35 rouse now from this point on watch him drop his shoulder and go forward what's happening right now miami is confused because they've been running to the short field arkansas has they expect them to go the other way to the wide field rouse two carries 21 yards this is johnson inside the 30 to about to 29. rouse missed all but two games in 1986 as a freshman he had nine touchdowns he has 13 for his career johnson has 14 career touchdowns quite a pair they're they're outstanding runners but most important to make the wishbone go you got to have good blockers at those backs and that's why those that's why the wishbone goes they can block keep an eye on the guards those huge arkansas guards they have to do the job on the miami tackle and this is an exceptional miami defense ralph again once again to the short side of the field inside the 30. they'll mark it at the 26. greg mark the defensive end made the tackle once again to the short side exactly what miami's doing they're taking away the wide feel or the most of the field is to the their left they're over shifting the line and arkansas is coming up and automatically the option whichever way miami is loaded to go the opposite way jimmy johnson throughout his career as an assistant and the head coach has been a tremendous defensive coach he has coached some of the best defensive lines in college football history including oklahoma and pittsburgh thomas quarterback draw and they've got him greg mark cut in in a hurry and made the tackle but i like the quarterback draw on third down along yardage because miami has a tendency sometimes to play man for man coverage and if the quarterback can break one tackle boom he goes all the way kendall traynor is on to go for the field goal he puts the t down at the 32 it would be a 42-yard attempt it would be his longest of the year he has missed from 51 and hit four shorter than that it's long enough but it's wide and miami gets a break early with 10 57 to go in the we're scoreless miami and arkansas it's being brought to you by ford and your ford dealer have you driven a ford lately and by heil heating and cooling depend on heil they're born to run 10 57 to go first quarter of play miami with the football at its own 25-yard line after arkansas comes up empty on a 42-yard field goal after a pretty good ride they showed they could move the ball they had good field position and he moved it on the option miami's making some adjustments on the sideline right now defensively they'll go out of the eye this time williams the deep man and he'll get the ball williams gets a couple eric witted number 39 was in on the tackle miami has a tendency to run out of the i formation and why they do that is because that's their best running formation when they split the backfield it's more difficult to run but it's better to get the backs out in their five-man professional style passing attack second down and six as williams who does not make a lot of mistakes as a back for miami got four got to the 31 and that swarming arkansas defense and right in the middle of that pile as always tony charicco along with whitted for 51 chad rolling rolling will uh alternated a right tackle with tony allison you notice the miami coaches change the strategy right away they featured walls throwing the ball early not have taken down this and kept the pressure off them a little bit and give it to the big running backs and let them start the game going again against florida bratton carried eight times only made four yards it's third and three right now and walt's the throw likes the short patterns and completes it out there to brian blades and blades has the first down and a little extra activity with anthony cooney the corner that's the pass they want to throw they like to throw the out cuts and there's some scores for you to look at what we're talking about they like the outcome because it's a safe pass it's a nice pass and it gets the quarterback's confidence up and walsh as we told you does not have the great arm that kelly kozar or testa verdi had quarterback you started when george myra played everybody on the offensive line jumped except center rod holder and walsh has to cover up and it is procedure against the hurricanes that's paul schmidt the referee today a split officiating crew the southern independence and the southwest conference five yards first down and good thing that'll happen sometime when there's a lot of crowd noise the quarterback might think the center might think it's on two and snaps it on two but it's really gone already first and 15 for the hurricanes at their own 35. walsh grows short and complete out of the backfield warren williams covered by eric and that's the kind of defense arkansas wants to play they'll let him catch the short stuff in front of them one thing we might watch for lee is that arkansas does not have much of a pass rush and wayne martin a defensive tackle was their best pass rusher and he's out with an injury but they're gonna have to do that if they don't have a good pass rush from four they're gonna have to send six or seven and that could open up miami for a long touchdown pass especially with blades and urban it's second and nine after a game of six on that play here comes the blitz williams avoids a tackle jericho missed him he gets the midfield great move by warren williams down to the arkansas 45-yard line million-yard run and a couple of great-looking moves from warren williams he made this one all on himself this is a counter action play watch they'll start one way and come back first to the left now the outside man misses him but right now he runs into his own man now williams is doing something good fundamentally he's carrying a ball in his left hand so that he can use his other hand as a weapon watch good movement down 29 cooley gets down there a nice play by warren by warren williams number 24. first time miami has had it in arkansas territory and tony jericho got him with one hand and brought him down jericho and nose guard 242 that's the biggest he's ever been but he's just so quick he can play that spot all right cherokee some football player like you said the one thing i like about jericho he makes penetration which means he's in the other side of the backfield see what i'm talking about he did that by a little stunt he holds on and does a great job there he's from shawnee mission kansas tell you what you have to have very strong hands bratton is 223. he was prone and just pulled him down with his left hand second and eight miami bratton again inside the 40 to about the 38-yard line he'll be three shy of a first down eric whitted again in all this brad cheryko was also there witted and williams the linebackers 39-57 respectively the leading tacklers you gotta you gotta really like what miami's doing right now their feature number 24 williams and number five bratton not number four walsh which is smart because those two guys are better than football players third and three the crowd exhorting the defense to hold alfredo roberts and where they have marked it he is going to be about half a yard shy or less than that of a first down now you watch a secondary drop and which waltz does here he avoids the rush but they load us they'll have all the secondary people number nine brothers in there number 27 at water they've got everybody in front of them and they come up and make the tackle and drive them to the outside it's fourth down now miami likes to do this number five gratton over the top that was an interesting spot on that because alfredo roberts was across the 35-yard line when he was hit they'll go for it on fourth and one they did not give him his forward progress first down miami quitted and at water with the first two there atwater had a broken collarbone in the spring he's an excellent safety now this is their favorite plate because bratton is their biggest strongest runner 6-1 223 and he does it the best of anybody now remember i told you they were going to run that play but they do it so well that they don't care they'll call the other team up and said hey we're going to run this play try to stop us that's the way you win football games running the ball when you tell the other team you're going to run it first and ten canes of the arkansas 34. for the first time they go deep and it's dropped by blades got his hands on it it may have been tipped by carrie owens oh that's this is almost a touching now blades is isolated on this one you get a chance to watch it but watch number 54 owens who's a loudside linebacker at 222 pounds trying to cover them deep and number 28 coulee comes over number 54 owens slightly touched that football and blades almost made the catch on it blade's average is almost 18 yards a catch for his career and that wasn't walsh's fault that was right on the money second and 10. no pressure at all wanted to throw the screen now dumps it off to his tight end robertson roberts is wrapped up at the 31-yard line it looked like he was trying to set up the screen and arkansas didn't have a big enough pass rush to bite on it you know what jericho number 64 was over there covering brad bradley five man-to-man i've never seen that before that was a great call on the defensive staff by arkansas because they must have had a tendency that in that down and distance they like to scream keep you up to date on all the scores throughout the afternoon andre brown number 83 is a wide receiver as miami goes with three wide outs on third and seven three-man rush on walsh and over the middle is ghetton irvin inside the 15 to the 13-yard line steve atwater on the coverage but it's a 19-yard game and walsh for not having all the advanced publicity certainly puts the ball on the money what a shot that drooling right between the numbers now watch he gets good protection now i like this the way he threw off his front foot and followed through now there's nobody they were trying to play at water 27 on 47 irwin forget it there's nobody in college football that can cover 47 urban man for man nobody i mean nobody he is a great one the all-time leading receiver for touchdowns and yards they'll get to the 10. knocked down by otis lloyd and written down by albert harris number 68 behind him albert herron so far six carries 22 yards his backfield coach joe brodsky says he is the most frustrating experience he has ever had as a coach he thinks bratton has all the talent there is and just doesn't go hard all the time especially in practice williams and that'll be very close to another miami first down again on the stop along with ricky williams williams makes a good cut here but i'll tell you what 76 proven and 71 patching on the right side good good blocking angles they block 98 shepard right out of the play and drives forward williams does and he runs over number 27 at water who at water they say in the pros scouts say is the best tackling safety in america and williams got lower than he did and drove for that extra yard and it's first and goal miami and a fast moving first quarter we're already down to four minutes and 18 seconds to go in the scoreless game now miami's tendency down here is to give the ball to number five bratton on some kind of a belly lead play or watch for a naked kind of a quarterback bootleg and or they like to throw a little lob pass in the corner two tight ends henry 82 and roberts 87 are in the ball game and urban on a win and it looks like walsh is changing the play williams touchdown miami didn't get in by much but then you don't have to and let me tell you what a great call that was you know those three things i said miami likes to do arkansas knew that too so they shifted their line over to my tenancy call miami ran the ball the other way for a first down and a touchdown because that was an automatic by walsh great heady play by the quarterback right by walsh greg cox will come on for the point after bagels is his holder and willis pages excuse me mike pizza the long snapper and cox comes through for the extra point okay seven nothing hurricane all right now he watched it the formation it goes looks like it's going to go the right but here comes williams and he's running behind number 79 sullivan and number 75 o'neill i call that the irish left side two irishmen over there they blew the ball off but it was an automatic by walsh on the goal line great call by walsh time out first quarter seven nothing hurricanes and we'll keep you up to date on all the strike happenings on the exclusive sui pig network i think we have a new name that's not a bad one to have either edgar bennis is on to kick off and deep to receive donnie centers centers from the four guy can fly avoided a couple of tackles and got it out to the 24-yard line fine effort by donny centers and miami very impressive on that drive they went 75 yards and they ate up a lot of clock over seven minutes williams capped it off with a two-yard run for a 7-0 lead he also went for fourth down once on it made a good play centers is limping off he is the starting split end and derrick russell number two is checked in in his place and they'll attend the centers on the sideline one guy they certainly can't afford to lose last year he averaged 28 yards a catch they'll go to the air for the first time and they complete it to wrestle russell flattened back there donald ellis number 29 on the stop but a nice throw by greg thomas and we wanted to make the point that if you get behind in a wishbone you're in trouble but this is the flexbone as opposed to the wishbone and it's a little different absolutely what they'll do is they'll put the backs up on wing back position so they can get them out of the pass patterns quicker it's more flexible that's why it's got the name and it's the first and intent go with rouse on the quick hitting play this time and rouse really stuffed at the line of scrimmage by 91 rod carter donnie centers on the sideline looked like it was his right leg that was bothering him russell comes back to the ball game van dyke with a good block in front of him and johnson will pick up some good yardage nice block by the fullback sammy van dyke out there on the corner okay now this is a little bit of this a little different kind of an option play it's kind of a reverse action and and what happens in this play the quarterback does a little spin and he comes down and freezes the linebackers especially number 45 myra he looked like he was screwed into the ground he didn't know which way to go that way thomas did not play last week in arkansas 30-15 win over tulsa he suffered a bruise sternum in the first game and they thought they could afford to rest him last week they played back up quarterback courtney roby and it worked out very well and thomas healthy able to play again he wants to throw this time dumped it off for johnson and coming up quickly from the secondary was selwyn brown number 32. even if johnson makes the catch the play isn't going to go anywhere and it brings up a fourth and three well i'll tell you what you're a good running team it's third down and three and you throw kind of a flare pass and you're not used to that i would say right now on a scale of one to ten that was about a call of three very very poor call in that situation especially when you're running the option so well that's cleveland gary who's deep to receive kendall traynor the place kicker is also the punter this year he's averaged almost 42 yards a kick miami with nine men on the line and they come and he just got it out of there what a beauty holy cow what a punt and they'll take it out of the end zone cleveland gary really made a big mistake tony holmes made the tackle and why oh why did cleveland gary do that okay the first thing he made a mistake is when you get a punt receiver back there you put your heels on the 10-yard line you never get inside the tent and you tell them if the ball is over your head let it go my gosh what a mistake here and tony holmes number 26 and that's exactly what jimmy johnson's telling him nice try but don't do it again 2 27 to go in the quarters still 7-0 there's the young man cleveland gary who made the mistake on that last punt backed up into his own end zone caught it and then tried to take it out miami's offense has been very good in the first quarter walsh five out of eight 38 yards they've also had an excellent ground game walls changing the play at the line again very smart quarterback throws the quick out to urban complete at the 15-yard line brothers was there but too late and you have to really be impressed with walsh under this kind of pressure in this hostile environment and he has changed the play at the line of scrimmage several times and made every one work and the play he changed to is the most difficult pass to throw on out fifth 12 yards deep what a nice throw that time that showed a lot of confidence in wallace's ability to throw it gain of nine second and one at the 14-yard line bratton and williams in the eye and now they'll shift out as walls changes to play again this kid's got a lot of guts he'll throw us from anywhere and he's got irving down the middle irvine to the arkansas 49-yard line a 36-yard shot right on the money what they did is that time they caught number 27 atwater coming up to make a play and there's irwin running a post route this this guy irving was all world at fort lauderdale high school tell you what steve walsh may not have a rifle arm but right now i think any coach in the country would take exactly what he had three automatics three great plays first and ten for miami at the arkansas 49. first down and more what a great cut he might go all the way williams touchdown miami a 49-yard scramble by warren williams and their hurricanes have stunned a sellout crowd here in little rock arkansas boy he made a nice move he gets the ball deep in the back when he runs the daylight remember i told you the way to take a great back and find out how good he is is how many yards he makes after he gets hit oh what a fine football player warren says 49 yards feigls to hold for cox and cox bangs it through so miami strikes in a hurry get the ball deep williams does and watch the offensive right line right side 76 provin 71 patchy gets a good block by rat number five but i want you to watch 47 irvin come out of the corner your picture and make a great block right down here the same guy right there 47 that caught the long pass watch him make the block that gives his friend williams a touchdown that's an all-american block plus a great receiver 114 to go first quarter miami jumps on top 14 nothing here in the first quarter and he has to do something about it edgar venice should kick off to his opposite number one donnie centers standing at the goal line right to pin him in the corner if they can and center from the sixth across the 25 to the 27 about the 28 yard line that scoring drive 95 yards and williams got half of it with a 49 yard run and steve walsh was brilliant in that drive checking off the line of scrimmage a couple of times and getting big plays out of it warren williams after that 49-yard touchdown run and it's 14-0 and let's see what arkansas under greg thomas on offense can do wings and they'll give it straight ahead van dyke has really blasted by rod carter the junior linebacker out of fort lauderdale here's some other scores for you to keep up to date at half colorado leading washington state california the bears over usc san diego state with a lead in the first quarter over oregon air force rolling along over colorado state iowa state wyoming 17-17 see if you can pick out your favorite team as we run through the rest of the scores for you and we'll continually update you throughout the rest of the afternoon second and nine arkansas needs yardage from its fullbacks on the fly and so far they're not getting thomas has to keep it could not get the ball to rouse as miami covered it brilliantly at the 30-yard line from the inside out comes 45 george meyer jr from miami florida palmetto high school watch him he's the middle in lines eric linebacker he reads a quarterback he's got to run inside out now ladies and gentlemen so the quarterback can't cut back boom nice tackle george myra jr junior and boy could his did his dad have a rifle it's going to be third and eight they are going to let the first quarter clock run out as you see the rushing yardage in the first period and that is the end of the first period here at war memorial stadium in little rock and it's a 14 point hurricane lead arkansas really needs to do something on offense to get this crowd back in the ball game because it is such an advantage for them with a sell out of 53 250 but the crowd has not had much of anything to cheer about it's third and eight right now thomas they run the option instead and forget it george meyer was in the backfield as quickly as any of the arkansas running backs and he made the stop brings up fourth and law what they did that time was the first blitz that they called all day watch myra number 45 it's the first blitz from the inside he makes a good play and gets to thomas before he can run the option play miami is a well coached and have got some fine athletes and they're playing on top of their game right now kendall traynor is on to punt cleveland gary who made a mistake that didn't cost him anything he's back to receiving his own 35 trainer a high spiraling kick this time and it bounces out of bounds near the 40-yard line here's some other scores for you from around the rest of the country north carolina with only that loss to oklahoma winning big lafayette a 31 point win courtney lachbaum must have had a big game today as holy cross rolls army over citadel that's a fourth quarter score east carolina had to come from behind to beat georgia southern and iowa over kansas state kansas state was leading in that ballgame would have been a major upset miami first lieutenant's own 43. williams excuse me leonard conley in the ball game the back up half back a freshman out of holiday florida 170 pounds williams getting a rest after ripping off 49 yards per touchdown david shell made the tackle for that arkansas defensive line to win on the road most football teams and coaches believe you got to get ahead by at least 14 to get the crowd out of it then hold on in there as the home team comes back and tries to beat you 17-14. connolly's first carry of the year and cleveland gary is in the fullback walsh with plenty of time and throws incomplete to cleveland gary otis lloyd was coming up to cover coach the one thing that arkansas was going to do was allow the short passes but that is walsh's strength well i tell you another thing that's happened not only have they thrown a ball straighter i think he's throwing a ball straighter than they ever thought he could throw it there is a very competitive young man that number wall at four walls he wants to complete every pass well he's almost done that seven out of 11 for 83 yards he's had a couple dropped third and eight right now three-man rush no pressure at all walsh with all the time in the world throws complete to henry he's out of bounds at the arkansas 35 and if they allow walsh to stand back there he's going to complete 75 of his passes all day long not only that he got great pass protection but he threw that ball to harry henry number 82 right between the defenders number nine brothers was over there and watch him lay it in between everybody 36 was over there lloyd but it was a perfect pass because he just took enough off of it to lay it smacked right in the hands of henry picking that zone apart right now and miami driving for a third score excellent effort by conley broke a couple of tackles picked up about six yards down to the arkansas 29 lloyd and ricky williams made the stop the thing that impresses me about miami right now you really have no idea where they're going to attack you they throw it they run it they throw it over short they throw it wide they throw a little screen before they run the ball they've got a nice balanced attack and that's the secret to moving the football and of course they had almost no rushing success at all in their opener against florida but they're having all kinds today and they really beat up a good florida football team delay to gary and gary dragged down from behind by witted as he got to the 26-yard line crowd wanted a fumble but the ball was obviously down that was a nice little draw play they've been using wall it's been using wallace and all of a sudden they came back used him as bait and give the ball a cleveland gary right there gary is out of indiantown florida he was a parade high school all-american went to georgia transferred from georgia before his sophomore year and here's another guy that they feel has tremendous potential and has not shown it as yet 30-yard right now andre brown comes into the wide receiver spot he's number 83 and walsh with all day again drills it to henry is tight end first down and more to the arkansas 16-yard line eric wooded made the tackle and steve walsh looks like he's a senior instead of a sophomore and looks like he is perfectly in the mall of all those great quarterbacks gary stevens the offensive coordinator calls the plays from upside he's got arkansas they have no idea that was third down and one and he threw a little hook pass before and got a first down they have no idea where miami is going to attack him the next time he got just great calls from gary stevens from upstairs walsh has been exceptional 9 out of 13 115 yards in the first half alone bouncing off tacklers will not go down until he reaches the 16-yard line remember this kid is only 170 pounds and he's just very tough witted again on the tackle along with reggie hall number 49 backup linebacker one of the things that might happen now arkansas is going to be forced to put the pressure they're going to have to blitz and when they do it's one on one on the outside with number nine blades and number 47 irvin and goodbye that couldn't be much worse than what's happening to them right now you got it second and nine right on the toss got a nice block from gary touchdown miami leonard conley with his first touchdown as a college player and it was a beauty and ken hatfield just has to be dejected on that arkansas sideline this is a defense they're very proud of and has been shredded for three first half touchdown cox comes on to try for the 21st point out of eagle's hole he's got it well connolly number 28 just gets a good block from 43. watch him gary makes a good block but miami did that time mike they had an unbalanced line but i'll tell you what unbalanced doesn't make any difference when your fastest 28 is forget it great block on that play by center rod holder who got two people time out it's 21-0 live cfa football is brought to you by jeep there's a feeling you can get only in a jeep and by mcdonald's it's a good time for the great taste of mcdonald's miami leading arkansas 21-0 here in little rock a stunning quarter and a couple of minutes of football as the hurricanes have just been absolutely devastating johnny centers driven eight yards deep in the end zone it goes out of bounds and arkansas will have to start from its own 20. another look at a touchdown i'll show you conley number 28 making his break to the outside now watch good block by number 76 proven patching gets a good block 43 gary does but watch right here on the right hand picture you'll see brothers come here number six he's one of their fastest man on her team and he cannot even come close to tagging connolly number 28. they've got too much speed quickness and their athletic ability is unbelievable right at this point they need more hogs out there 43 yards in total offense so far for arkansas miami has racked up 241. thomas on the option they've got it covered rather well he'll pick up about five and brought down by benny blades the free safety blaze is just a great player and this secondary may be the best in the country as you take a look at some other scores indiana a winner over missouri northern illinois surprising northwestern that's a third quarter score wisconsin with a touchdown lead kansas trailing louisiana tech and boy is in tough times in kansas thomas one out of two so far this afternoon only 11 yards and arkansas has to do something to get its offense moving thomas looking to throw near side overthrows centers ellis was on the coverage for miami but the paul was simply overthrown if you are an arkansas offensive coach what do you tell this unit well the first thing you do is second down and long you don't throw the ball because if it's incomplete it's third down and then miami goes they come right after you so what miami has to do is continue to pressure on what arkansas has to do is not try to catch him so quick they've got to try to catch him on defense move the ball kick a field goal stay close to the game and get the crowd back in here did i hear that sound effect again that uh that rush that was good third and five intercepted it's picked off by sheldon brown and selwyn brown is down to the arkansas one-yard line he just put the hands up there standing right in the passing lane and pick it off well brown is 511 200 pound senior from st petersburg florida what he did is he dropped underneath the pass that was thrown before now watch thomas comes down and runs a play-action pass on third and eight and not one of the miami guys played the run and there's thomas well i remember 32 bronze just takes off donna sonic gets a good block down there by 63 jimmy jones and he goes in for a touchdown missed most 1986 he was an honorable mention all-american as a sophomore and this is a brilliant secondary for the hurricane they could almost put this game away here bratton and williams are back in first and goal with the one touchdown miami holy cow the hurricanes have done absolutely nothing wrong here in the first half and they are just burying arkansas they've done nothing wrong and psychologically in every other way they're at the top of their game and remember they haven't played in two weeks they missed two weeks yeah can you imagine what this football team is going to look like when they start getting ready if it's any better than this nobody wants to see it they can play on sundays that's right nobody else is cox is on for his fourth pat of the first half he's perfect now you know brat number five we talked about the way he likes to get across and jump now watch he gets the ball nice and deep he leaps and all he has to do is get any part of that football across the plane it's a touchdown there's a timeout in the second quarter 10 10 to go in the period 28 nothing miami hope you'll join us thursday night for long beach state in fresno state right now we're in little rock arkansas where the razorbacks are absolutely stunned as miami has taken a 28-nothing lead this is number seven against number 10 but you wouldn't know it from looking at the scoreboard donnie centers once again driven deep in the end zone and arkansas will have to start from its own 20-yard line these people had this place rocking when the game started and right now there is not a lot of noise coming from 53 250. but they don't give up in arkansas they'll come back and they'll try to come back and if i was a coach of arkansas what i do right now is try to get back with a change and there it is right now a change in quarterback because what do you got to lose you might we'll bring the young kid in and see what he can do red shirt freshman quinn grovy from duncan oklahoma who played nearly the entire game a week ago is in at quarterback there he is number four he runs a 4-5 and he may need that speed on the option nowhere to go and he'll lose a yard on his first carry and now there's a flag down for a late hit and daniel stubs really upset about it he's the all-american defensive end number 96 and if it is a personal foul that's the one of the best offensive plays arkansas has had today let's number 96 come in here and spare right there in the back of the helmet now oh that was only about three seconds late wasn't it well you know one of the things yeah i notice there's a difference between really grabbing them in there and that's one of the things that they do and and they try to do this right against the deacon they try to outlaw that because that's a dangerous play this is fred goldsmith the defensive coordinator telling her look we got to get that back in this game on defense the only way you're going to win this game mike is you got to shut miami out from right now that's it that's the only way you can win let's see if that personal foul penalty will fire up arkansas a little bit johnson on the toss he's hit in the backfield by randy shannon and donald ellis yeah in a pre pregame show we talked about how i would attack the quarterback now watch number 96 stops his responsibility is boom you flatten that guy don't worry about any options and you know what number four that's his play come down the line and run an option off the guy i used to run that play and i told the coach in the sideline coach there's no option they're killing me that's 250 pounds against 170 seconds and 11. chase nowhere to go and he's buried back at the 30. what a hit by rod parker oh man is this team loaded with talent i mean they go right and there goes stubs number 96 they go left and there's 91 carter hits them they've got talent all over one of the things that impresses me about miami is they made such a great adjustment remember how arkansas came over out of the game and started running the option look real good miami's made a nice adjustment now grovy will come out of the ball game on third and 13th thomas is back in i don't know grovie looked pretty excited to be in the ball game after those few plays maybe he maybe he's excited about coming out for a breather and thomas now wants a time out to go over in to the arkansas sideline and talk it over on third and 13. we have a timeout with 8 37 to go for you know miami must like to play on television since 1980 the record on television is 25 wins and five losses with some program that jimmy johnson has continued down there here comes the blitz on third and long arkansas picked it up for a second thomas got away a second time and then he is absolutely buried back at the 21-yard line got some more scores for you california continues to lead southern cal that second quarter san diego state leads oregon air force over colorado state that is now a final 27-19 iowa state wyoming tied in the third this is kendall traynor on the punt and deep to receive cleveland garrett arkansas has done absolutely nothing right trainer with a short low kick takes a bounce and gary takes it on the first hop and good kick coverage by arkansas they stop him at the miami 42 yard line 40-yard kick by trainer here's some of the stats for you and it really tells the whole story miami with 128 yards rushing 115 more passing two touchdown runs and they have held arkansas that flexbone offense to only 31 yards on the ground here in the first half they held florida to 31 yards on the ground it just did a great job still on his feet across midfield in arkansas territory 47-48 yard line albert harris with the tackle when does fatigue start to be a factor lee mentally mentally arkansas is whipped right now this doesn't have to do with philly physically they've come out they thought they're going to win this ball game but now they've been knocked down by a better team a nice little play here by williams who cuts it to the inside good block by bratton and he gets going down number 68 makes the tackle but i tell you what harris made a good play there but what happens arkansas is just stunned that's what's their problem they're stunned i think you're right about that andre brown number 83 enter the wide receiver spot rattling to the backs this is brett cuts it out to the right side 40 35 30. brothers chased him out of bounds but miami is just devastating this arkansas defense i just watch this number five number five just comes to the inside bratton this play is supposed to go to the inside but watch it come to the outside watch jericho number 64. he gets blocked sullivan blocks him number 79 and he gets to the outside but the speed and quickness of the entire miami team was the most impressive thing jericho's a fine football player but they're running outside throwing and everything else they got they got them completely well this is like coming downstairs on christmas morning and the room's empty well it's like coming downstairs and finding no room that's right the family left for the good ball illegal procedures finally something goes right for arkansas this procedure penalty will cost miami five balls at the 35-yard line will be first and 15. and like you said earlier these guys ought to be playing on sundays oh what a huge hole down to the 21-yard line they just didn't have a chance to stop him he went 10 yards before anybody got a finger on him that was a that was a quick trap now watch number 76 proven to pull to your left and he goes the opposite way this is what they call a negative block wasn't that a terrific concept and number 24 williams cuts it gets a good block that play was designed for a good coach team to move that way and he went right to the other way what a terrific play kerry owens finally got a hand on him and melvin bratton has gone over the 1 000 yard mark in his career at the university of miami they are just shy of the first down 7.05 to go in the first half if you just joined us you have missed four hurricane first half touchdowns and they have done it on the air and on the ground and their defense has been nearly perfect after the opening series bratton 54 yards on the ground williams has carried six times for 87. walsh's past 9 out of 13 for 115 yards you couldn't ask your offense to do any more than that second and a yard here they'll shift out of the eye as walt changes the play again and he wants to throw throwing for irvin touchdown hurricanes steve walsh has been absolutely perfect changing plays at the line of scrimmage that's time he saw something on second one went for the post pattern and hit walsh right on the number you know what he saw he saw number 21 steve atwater that great defensive back move up like a linebacker the open middle oh the automatic number 47 irvin against number nine brook brothers and he just right there cox is on to try another point after and again he is good and when they flash these scores up around the country people won't believe it okay he sees it's man for man watching me thanks to the outside and drives number nine to the outside and urban makes a good catch on number nine brothers but now this is what happened walster quarterback saw before the snap he saw no safety man he came back looked off to one back threw right there for a touchdown the kid is impressive there's no question in my mind he is a third year sophomore who has changed at least four plays at the line of scrimmage and they have all gone for big yardage back in a moment over the razorbacks 35 to nothing and those people are smiling because there's a television camera pointed at them not because they've looked at the scoreboard donnie centers five six yards deep he'll down it and arkansas once again will have to start from its own 20. now here's the automatic we were talking about watch him now as he comes up he sees no safety man now watch his left hand not only does he call the signal for the sake but he gives him the five which means run the post route that's because if there's a loud crowd noise the guy the receiver urban looked inside and saw his hand down and knew he run the post walsh has simply been exceptional in the first half and miami as a team has been that way obviously with a 35-00 lead over undefeated and 10th ranked arkansas this is quinn grovey the redshirt freshman he's back in the quarterback to try to run the option back to roush on the toss and rouse will only get a couple wrapped up in a hurry randy shannon number 22 was in on the stop along with bubba mcdowell number 48 who's in there at a corner final north carolina wins big over navy tough times in annapolis this year pittsburgh in a defensive struggle at morgantown beats west virginia bucknell over pin colgate a 24 point winner against cornell and we'll update you on the rest of the high ivy league scores and scores in the northeast as we go along as well as the rest of college football our story here six minutes and nine seconds to go you saw the holy cross score gordy lochbaum had a couple of touchdowns grovy on the option out to brothers after the 31 excuse me donny centers and listen to that cheer now that's a little direct that's part of that's got to be derisive and part of it's got to try to get this team back in here listen that happened to me once when i was in maryland we went to play syracuse and in the fourth quarter we got a first down they gave us a standing ovation because the only one we got all day i know how i had to feel first and 10 arkansas 32 first completion for grovy johnson maybe a yard no more and george myra and rod carter made the snap carter has been very impressive in the first half with some big hits now watch white number 50 isolated on myra watch him now he's a big strong guy he slips inside white doesn't keep his head up and myra slips in and makes the tackle the big linemen from from arkansas are big and strong but they're not quick enough for the miami defensive line the guards are 302 and 350 and they haven't been able to keep them out here's the loose ball grovey picks it up on the bounce trying to get back to the near side and look at the miami pursuit they can run so well bubba mcdowell over there on the coverage as the toss got away from rouse it's a loss of 18 yards on that play jimmy jones number 63 fifty one was chasing him and i want you to watch he comes on makes a pitch out it goes bad ral rousey can't pick it up so grovery picks it up now watch number 63 come into your picture number 48 comes into your picture that's bubba mcdowell the thing that impresses me most about miami is i tell you what they've got great pursuit but they're well coached they're always in the right position third and 28 arkansas goes to two wideouts puts the halfbacks on the wings here comes the rush grovey quarterback draw and he's horse-collared at the 18-yard line rod carter just grabbed him around the throat threw him down but but it was not a face mask now watch romeo go back he runs the quarterback draw number 91 carter was in good football position and grabs around the neck and throws him down but he did not do that now maliciously i gotta defend carter on that one kendall traynor has had the most work of any of the arkansas players so far cleveland garrett was deep off the side of his foot and we'll take a bounce gary has to let this one go and the ball is down inside the miami yard lock there's a timeout with 412 to go first half miami continues to throw a shutout at arkansas miami starting quarterback steve walsh now on the sideline his day may be finished already in the second quarter 10 out of 14 136 yards a touchdown no interceptions and a brilliantly called game he changed several plays at the line of scrimmage so they'll go with craig erickson the freshman out of atlantis florida he's number seven at quarterback and they've got the second team running backs in there conley and gary this is cleveland gary big hole cuts it outside gets to the 49-yard line pulls to another first down and the talent just keeps coming there's erickson the freshman he's only one out of two this year one of the reasons they like erickson but jeff george the all-world quarterback from purdue said he was going to transfer to miami erickson signed to miami anyhow now that's a guy that's got great confidence it'll be second and one for the hurricanes and they've got the several members of the backup offensive line and they're gary mayhaw very painful and darren handy number 66 jimmy johnson wants to give his reserves all the work they can in condition conley first down to the arkansas 48-yard line eric witted on the stop and the arkansas sideline not a happy place to be and there's really almost nothing you can do as a coach to get them back up after the down 35 nothing second quarter not only that there's still three minutes to go you think you've been out here for a week and a half yeah when you get beat like this the game seems to go longer and longer three minutes five seconds to go miami with a football at the 48th of arkansas three wide receivers in the vlog and gary got maybe one that time arkansas fans appreciative the fact that they were able to stop them for a couple plays in a row ricky williams and whit it again on the stock hassfield trying to fire up his club yeah hadfield is a graduate of the university of arkansas and he played on the championship team here in 1965. he's an outstanding man he's got he's a deeply religious person who believes in his faith and he lives it he's a good man and he's a good football coach and somebody we all should be proud of to have in his profession bratton is back in there on second 10 erickson to throw plenty of time throws to henry the tight end 20 17 yard line mark at the 19th and erickson just laid it out there and henry went to get it 29 yards on the receptionist do you like the way erickson set up that time and hit henry on a breakout now what happened on this game so far is it's very simple the best football team is playing as well as they can now watch erickson sets up nicely throws a spiral they're beating number 27 steve atwater that's the best they've got to offer henry breaks the tackle goes down the field and number 26 makes the tackle and drives the bottom bounds at 36 lloyd they could play 10 times and miami beat him at least nine i don't think if he asked arkansas to play him ten times right now they'd want to connolly wrapped up by david shell he was one of the tacklers who started in 1986 lost the starting job to michael shepard this year but he was in the uh back field in a hurry that time number six number 70 schnell makes a good move he comes outside now watch him in the lower left-hand part of your picture he depicts the tackle right there and comes across he beat ron holder number 64 to the to the slanting side and made a good play second and 13 for the hurricanes clock ticking down 145 to go in the half the light of conley cut it back down to the 15-yard line where shell made the stop again connolly a good looking freshman running back tim brando coming up at halftime with all the scores and highlights from around the country a couple of surprises for you today you see the game clock here in the second quarter lower right hand portion of your screen well this is a day at the beach for a guy like jimmy johnson who expects a tough tough ball game that's a lead in the second quarter can play some of his second team people especially second team erickson all day to throw dumps it off to henry and henry took a shot as he got down to about the 12 yard line carl bradford number 43 on the stuff well now you know jimmy johnson's an arkansas graduate also and he's got he's got a feeling for ken they were teammates now he doesn't want to beat him real bad but he he wants his team to play the best he can so he's going to go for a field goal here watched miami play against flora was tremendously impressed by the hurricanes especially on defense today i have been impressed by both their offense and their defense greg cox will try a 29-yard field goal and just like everything else that has gone the hurricane's way this does and his field goal makes it 38 nothing with 22 seconds to go in the first half espn's cfa coverage will continue next weekend we have another exclusive doubleheader coming up for you south carolina barely lost to georgia today against the second-ranked cornhuskers of nebraska lee and i will be in lincoln for that one then our second game should be a beauty 15th ranked florida against number four lsu our live coverage of that double header starts at 4 eastern 1 pacific and you can start your day with espn's college football game day hosted by tim brando carrie ross and b no cook airtime 11 30 a.m eastern did you see the thing earlier today where beno said he was going to get a vacation and espn was buying him a plane ticket they bought him one to hartford sent him back up the game some vacation 38 nothing miami what a shocker with 22 seconds to go in the first half that's donny centers who has not had much of an opportunity to return kicks he brought back the first one and appeared to suffer a leg injury on it since then all of venice kicks have been in the end zone this one a low line drive taken by one of the up men at the five yard line and arkansas will not get it back to the 20. that was barry foster the backup fullback and flags are down after the play we'll check the penalty for you here's paul schmidt the referee of the dead and this one goes against arkansas watch yourself 69 red gives them a little shot in the left hand that's frustration coming out now what ken hadfield's got to do right now is make sure that he gets his ball club and talks to him about the southwest conference you know this is a big ball game for obviously we're beating today but look we got a long season we can still go to the cotton bowl we can come back and play for respect and dignity for arkansas football the second half because basically miami's a better football team than they are and they don't want to play him anymore this year unless they have to seconds to go quinn grovey is in at quarterback you wouldn't think arkansas would do anything down here and boby will run a quarterback draw and get out across the 10 to about the 11-yard line and they'll let the clock run down here at little rock a stunned sellout crowd in little rock arkansas has seen the 10th ranked razorbacks belittled in the first half to the tune of 38 to nothing by 7th ranked miami some first half for the hurricanes to check up on all the scores and highlights let's go back to our college football studio and tim brando all right mike and lee thank you very much surprising indeed at least in that score already at halftime the miami hurricanes with no problem now coming up at halftime we've got to tell you about a thriller in knoxville tennessee that has championship implications written all over it in the southeastern conference a controversial play to close the game a non-call we'll have that plus a plethora of highlights and scores from across the country from both top 20 and other key games all of that coming up at halftime stay with us what 38 nothing uh just starting the third quarter with two teams in the top ten it's really been a shock by the way great job on the halftime show hope you'll watch tim every week we miss you out here on the sideline but we appreciate the job you do in the studio arkansas kicks off to start the third quarter hill number three and johnson 21 are deep johnson hill cuts in front of him takes it out of the end zone he's got a room to run over the 30-yard line 34-yard kickoff return richard brothers knocked him out of bounds let's take a look at the possessions in the first half for the hurricanes if you're an arkansas fan you're only going to like the first one four plays in punt after that five consecutive drives for touchdowns to build a 35 to nothing lead and then the last time they had the ball resulted in a field goal for a 38-nothing margin that one to win 95 yards was a king of beauty walsh back in the quarterback the sophomore who went out of the game early second quarter jimmy johnson had to start his back in a wall changing the play at the line of scrimmage again he's been extremely successful every time he's done that throwing deep for urban this time it's overthrown brothers and cooney back there on the coverage it's the first time he's gone downfield all day that he wasn't right on target it was the same automatic he hit him for a touchdown arkansas has a tendency sometime to move the safety up number 27 at water and when he does he just calls a signal and throws it right over his head so at second and ten for the hurricanes from their own thirty miami with 353 yards in total offense in the first half they limited arkansas to only 38 yards the biggest statistic the scoreboard 38 nothing this is williams only get a couple this time jericho on the ground holding onto his ankle ricky number 57 also went on the tackle for the razorbacks in the halftime talk like this coach hadfield's talking to the team about look you got to play for yourself play for the pride of arkansas football he also looks at the fact that the next five ball games ole miss tcu texas tech texas and houston he can win and rice and come back here and gold still go to the cotton bowl he's that he hadn't given up he's a competitive man biggest game they have left of course at least on paper is texas a m which could decide the conference crown third and seven right now for the hurricanes three-man rush no pressure walsh throws complete to irvin irvin avoids one tackler gets up to the 44-yard line that's going to be a first down owens was in on the tackle along with eric quinn that time they try to play number 54. owens on there you cannot play owens 54 6-2-22 on irwin there's no way now watch irvin tries to cover to the inside and he can't cover him there's no way one on one but the beautiful part about that is that walsh knew exactly which guy to throw to 47 irvin it's one of the problems with a three deep secondary you have to rely on those outside linebackers and defensive ends and your pass coverage against somebody like urban it just isn't going to work very well i don't think they got that one off in time and it will cost miami five yards how do you let's wait for the call okay and it is a delay against miami how would you compare lee this miami team that jimmy johnson has with last year's was contended for the national title they look they look every bit as good on defense walls today looks as good as testaberti ever did but i think one more thing that they've got it looks like they've got more spirit and more of a business-like attitude this morning in my meeting with jimmy johnson he said the difference between this team and last year's they're more serious they're more business-like they're really serious people about winning this national championship i've been serious about it today 38-00 walsh for the first time feels a little pressure now he's going to run it chased him out of bounds but he got back to the original line of scrimmage between the 43 and 44 albert harris chased him down you know when you talk about this young man you know he's not just a normal guy he was a prep all-american player in high school he was a highly recruited player from st paul minnesota he's the only player from the state of minnesota become the university of miami good place to come from if you don't like winter wall so far 11 out of 16 146 yards irvin has caught five of those passes 95 yards and his 21st career touchdown and williams wrapped up in the backfield by ricky williams chad roland number 51 helped out but williams got in there in a hurry you know you know jimmy johnson got criticized last year at the fiesta bowl because his team more fatigues out there one of the new things he's done and all of his players were coats and ties on the road trips now and he just feels that this team is more comfortable like that they really want to do that and that that really speaks well of coach johnson a lot of people have been criticized criticizing this program but let me tell you something they've been to four consecutive new year's day bowl games and only nebraska can match that record third and nine three-man rush no pressure at all walsh with all day to throw throws caught by irvin at the sideline he's got enough for the first down excuse me brian blades what a fine catch and walsh once again putting on the money did you notice the way he jumped up there and looked that ball right into his hand and caught it from his hands now watch he sets up nicer walsh does but watch blades brian blades go way up and concentrate on catching the football and bringing one foot in miami in its entire game is well coached fundamentally now that was a good fundamental play to catch it looking in your hand and bring one leg down you were talking about jimmy johnson being proud the other thing i know he's very proud of is the graduation rate he's got on this team now he's really improved that record walsh to williams and williams down to the 40. whitted and shell on the stop for arkansas whitted has been very very busy today you talked about that graduation jimmy johnson has great last year's team 73 of his team graduated and that tripled the percentages before he came to the university of miami he took over after howard schnellenberger the graduation rate was below double digits that's incredible and he's built it back up from there hurricanes at the arkansas 40. williams got away from shell boy he is a dandy looking halfback steve atwater made the stop about a yard shy of the first down albert harris number 68 there is from pimperton new jersey he's a chemical engineering man he made a nice play in there he's an outstanding student you wonder why a guy came from new jersey back to play in arkansas because he was born and raised here and he left to go over there just two years and come right back 6-2 228 a sophomore the loping saves pesos got away from brothers initially and was knocked down at the 28-yard line it appears to be a little shaken his wooded came over and popped him you know that that was third down and about six inches the quarterback comes up and throws a quick out you know you don't even do that in the nfl tremendous execution by wall street and earthen it's a great offensive scheme they have in miami they will do anything and it's first and ten the hurricanes driving already leading 38-0 crap cut it back was the first man to hit him and he stumbled in the rest of the arkansas defense we told you at the beginning of the game that arkansas felt to win it had to hold on to the football and keep it away from miami they have not done it it's been vice versa miami almost double in the time of possession over arkansas and you can't with the weapons they've got you can't allow them to do it down to the eye on second and six and intended for blades cooney on good coverage that time there is a flag down however in the backfield otis lloyd was coming on the blitz for arkansas one of the rare times that they have blitzed and here's the call face mask against miami for the face mask 15-yard face mask against the outfit 15 yards means it was an intentional that was if it's inadvertent it's only a five yard you have one of those uh hog hats with you on this trick i'll tell you what if i did i wouldn't wear it out of here i'm wearing my miami hat good choice 38-nothing with 9 54 to go in the third quarter i'd wear a miami hat too he's now second 21 after the penalty marked off from the spot of the foul it's back to the arkansas 40-yard line here comes the blitz gets rid of it and it's complete to roberts the tight end let's go to tim brando an update on lsu and ohio state tim all right mike thank you very much the tigers were inside the 10 yard line the game is tied at 13 216 remaining tom hodson decides to throw and he's picked off by greg rogan the senior defensive back goes upfield and now ohio state has the ball with 104 left and the fourth tied at 13. let's get back to mike patrick and lee corso thanks tim big battle in columbus between two of the top five teams 38 nothing miami third and nine and incomplete intended for warren williams through his hands florida and lsu will be part of our doubleheader on our cfa college football presentation next week that will be the 7 30 game our four o'clock game south carolina against nebraska our live coverage of the double header starts at 4 7 30 for the second game the gators and the tigers and now miami will go for the field goal they spotted it to 34. that's greg cox who has been perfect today and is only uh four out of four on the season he'll try 44 yards plenty of distance and it's true greg cox with a 44-yard field goal for the hurricanes and their lead grows to 41-0 live cfa football is brought to you by dodge import trucks and the new dodge ram 50 and raider we're going places and by yashica they put a new focus on photography with the new 230 af autofocus somebody intended this sign to mean let's get ready to go to the cotton bowl in dallas what it may mean right now is let's get ready to go back to fayetteville it's 41-0 third quarter miami in a rump but these guys don't even know the score right or don't care donny centers would love to get something started for the hurricanes just for their pride in standing at the goal line centers has to come up for this takes it at the 10. and does not reach the 25 gets back to the 24-yard line and arkansas on offense has not been able to do anything at all with the football in the first half that was their best drive that resulted in a missed field goal the rest of the time they simply weren't able to do anything with a tremendous miami defense and they only had one turnover it was a key play-along back in the middle of the game when it was third down and about five or six they didn't run the option play i tell you what that that really took a lot out of the arkansas team greg thomas at quarterback across the 25 to about the 28-yard line tolbert bain ran him out of bounds arkansas remember goes to miami next year and his schedule looks like november the 26th and they better ask for a large guarantee miami is on the schedule wichita state should have been here but wichita state dropped football so they replaced them with the hurricane but those these are the kind of teams you have to play if you're going to make a national name for yourself you're going to be up there in the national rankings you need to play the best teams in the country and miami is obviously one of them johnson on the toss across the 32 back to 31. we are told that ohio state is at midfield in their game with lsu time is running out 27 seconds to go in the game they are tied and of course tim brando will update us on the final between lsu and ohio state well that's a tough place to play in lsu i coached there one time and lost to lsu 24-17 of all the places i played in i think that was one of the best places though to perform you were you felt like you really were in great football towns and southern cal has come back to take a lead over california this is third or three big play for arkansas trying to get something going thomas turns it up and appears to have the first down shy of the 35 and you can hear the crowd reaction and there is a flag down on top of it now here's the triple option the quarterback comes down fakes the number 21 van dyke thomas number eight cuts in gets hit hard by myra and 36 blades but it's a first down and there's a little bit of enthusiasm thomas got really whacked there hard but he'll be back in the ball game because he's very competitive quinn grovey will come in and you see what arkansas has been able to do on the ground today 27 yards back to throw up play action complete to his tight end billy winston bernard clark who was in there middle linebacker for george myra made a tackle number four grobe throws a nice cut now watch he throws the ball off his front foot in the coverage makes a good catch now the one thing you're saying why is that play working right now well miami doesn't play with the same kind of intensity with 41 to nothing as they do nothing nothing and that's why the same plays that they used before are now working when they didn't work before just shy of the first down at the arkansas 44 kessinger number 95 will come in at a tight end and skip thompson who was in number 81 a wide receiver will come out of the ball game brovi getting a signal from the sideline part of the sellout crowd here at war memorial stadium in a little rock and they'll go with no wide receivers on second short johnson they didn't get it he may have lost the yard on that as randy shannon number 22 was the first man in there and drilled it well you know i hate to be critical but i'm going to be on 41 to nothing you don't run a cross buck play with inches to go because what you do is you keep the ball too long now watch he fakes one way and that's the biggest mistake because miami doesn't worry about any fakes and here comes 122 shannon in there and hits the guy really good you gotta go right at it fast as you can against a team like miami and short yard so now it's third a little more than a yard rovi on the option back to johnson got the first down driven out of bounds selwyn brown the first man that got a hand on him and then benny blades forced him to the sideline that will be a first down for arkansas with 6 47 to go third quarter outside of the first offensive series lee where they moved the ball on the option miami has done a brilliant job of shutting it down and you have to remember the two times they beat the best wishbone team there is in oklahoma they get it back to rouse this time he gets the midfield let's go to tim brando another update on ohio state and lsu all right mike patrick thank you very much closing seconds of the game tommy hudson again looking to throw from deep in his own territory remember that name greg rogan his second interception earl bruce is happy he knows he's got a shot matt france the senior from cincinnati but he misses the field goal try it could be the day of the tie 13-13 the final score mike archer will join us live at halftime of our prime time game tonight to talk about it mike well you're right about those ties with auburn and tennessee playing to a tie here's the pass outside to j.r brown who checks into the ball game and makes his second reception of the season 19 yards from quinn grovey brown one of the reserve halfbacks is a very good receiver grobe this time does a good job of throwing to the secondary receiver number 18 bane had moved over to cover one man deep and he hit him right in his soft spot right there if they could just get a nice drive and go in and score come back and play a little bit more football they can get themselves up and say look we beat him in the second half anyhow didn't we big hole for johnson and johnson down to the 24 where he stood up and then planted by tolbert vane big hit in the secondary miami now is just standing around there's hawkins number 54 just standing there not hitting anybody what could happen right now which always worried me when i had a big lead is one of my players to stand around and get hurt and ruin the rest of the season they've got to play with the kind of intensity that if game is close but you can't do that mentally with 41 to nothing miami's defense has not given up a point this year the four points against florida came on safeties hawkins is in on that tackle as johnson can only get back to the line of scrimmage george myra back in the ball game was also in there now hawkins is starting to play a little bit he must be listening to the show number 54 hawkins in the bottom of your picture makes a good play number 94 mark makes a good play and they they stop him that way they had a little bit more intensity now it's third down you run either the option play and if you don't get it you run it again because you got a chance to make a first down third and three derrick russell the wide receiver to the top of your screen back to johnson and a good block in front of them trying for that first down flag and doe for the sticks it'll depend on where they mark it selwyn brown helped drive him down and it's going to be short by about a yard now you'd think they would be out to go for this as grovy comes to the sideline they'll probably call timeout just to make a decision not to go for it but what play to go for and arkansas does use one of its second half timeouts with 4 26 to go porter hits miami 41 arkansas nothing four minutes 26 seconds to go in the third quarter lee corso and mike patrick with you and it's miami with a 41-nothing lead look what the hurricane defense has done this year they have not allowed an opponent inside their 12-yard line the four points they have given up both came on safeties an offense has not scored against them and understand they have played against heisman trophy winner kerwin bell in florida and 10th ranked arkansas those are some pretty interesting statistics fourth in a yard here rovi he'll keep it and get the first down as he reaches the 20-yard line brought down by rod carter henry remember two plays ago i said you run the option right and if you don't make it run the option left and it's exactly what you did the difference this time rovi gets the ball and cuts it up for first down good play now if they could just run the option and throw a little pass in the end zone to score a touchdown that everybody will go crazy and then they'll be hey we're leading seven nothing in the second half yeah just don't look at the 73 or something like that rovi brings him out driven out of bounds and it's benny blades another good play by rod carter really strung it out and wouldn't let grovey cut it back this time well cotter's a nice looking athlete he's an art major from fort lauderdale florida 6-1-2-19 junior there's the southern cow scores they have come back after california led early san diego state trying to rebound this week air force winner over colorado state we'll update you on everything else that's going on wyoming after a score 17 points in a row second and ten grovey was three for three back to pass now he's got a run hawkins had him and then he's brought down from behind by daniel stubbs it's gonna be a little bit of a frustrating day for stubbs because arkansas doesn't throw that much he's the leading all-time sack man in miami history loves to go after the quarterback hasn't had many opportunities well he's a terrific athlete they say he's probably the outstanding pass rusher in college football today you know when he was in basket it was high school his basketball team won the end the new jersey championship and he had the most blocks in the history of the state of new jersey 74 in one season third and six for arkansas and movement on the offensive line that looked like todd jones the left tackle and ken hatfield really upset about it he had his offense doing something for the first time today good ball procedure that'll cost him five interesting thing about stubbs as a child he had severe asthma and allergies and they had to move to delaware in order to find a place that could take care of him his dad commuted something like 200 miles a day in order for him to be in a facility that could take care of the asthma in the allergy rovi has some time now chased out of the pocket he's in trouble may drive him out of bounds at the 23. that defense never quits derwin jones along with carter grovey is not very big and he's going to have to learn in this situation for instance when he goes back to pass and everything is gone they've got good pass protection he makes the move right here shannon number 22 from miami gets a beat on him 91 tries to catch him carter and get out of bounds don't let him hit you you know there's another play coming up and listen to these fans they were not very happy when they saw kendall traynor come on he will try a 40-yard field goal and he hooked it wide left trainer has missed for the second time in the ball game and miami is preserving its shutout at 41 to nothing and coach we know how you feel i think all of us have been in that position before 2 55 to go third quarter and it's a shutout for the keynes espn speed world coverage of formula racing will continue tomorrow flag to flag coverage of grand prix of spain air time 3 o'clock eastern 12 noon pacific miami with a ball with its own 21-yard line after this field goal attempt and that one almost picked off intended for the tight end henry and almost intercepted the pass wallace goes back to pass this time and he tries to get forced the ball the first time he's forced the ball all day into coverage 54 owens is a good place to try to get down but doesn't get doesn't get it that's the first absolutely what i would consider bad judgment pass that he's throwing all day and that's really what you would more expect to see carrie owens that linebacker on the tight end rather than trying to cover irvin or blades williams diving forward to the 28-yard line sometimes you wonder what happened to this guy jericho the great player well sometimes when you get down in the middle there there's a lot of guys blocking here there's holder number 64 gets a piece of them and that's a tough position to play in fact some people in the pros refuse to play yes i do because you get hit at so many different angles that you don't know what to do i know dave butz of the redskins didn't want any part of it he wanted to stay at defensive tackle third down and four just a tough way to make a living playing a noseman position henry the tight end of the 39 brought down by atwater who was right there in a hurry but it's going to be a miami first down you know this is this is a typical situation but i'm going to give you another statistic about miami they have won 22 straight regular season games the last time they lost in a regular season was to florida 35 22 and 1985. this is a fine football program and if this isn't one of the top two teams in the country i'm missing something i mean these guys have everything dodged over his own man what a great move and gets nearly to midfield atwater brought him down again just a very slick move by fullback melvin bratton oh bratton has got real good quickness now watch he'll take a little crossover step he's reading the outside he gets a good block by 24 williams 57 busted missed the tackle there goes 39 with it flying through the air and i tell you what he's a big strong running back but you know what his interest in colleges stage he's a theater miner you imagine that guy on the on stage tough to take to give them direction right williams takes the little dump off pass to the arkansas 37 forced out of bounds there by owens i'll tell you a story what happened to me my one of my best friend is joe brodsky he's the offensive backfield coach and i went down to see him about three years ago and he said i want you to meet my two running backs and he brings in high smith and brett nice to meet you they were beautiful looking athletes i said these guys you're running back i hate to see your tackles they got some good-looking athletes in miami williams now over 100 yards rushing and the last guy to do that in a regular season game was melvin bratton 105 yards that was in the season opener in 1986. come on arkansas 44 reggie hall made the tackle along with carl bradford and that's the way you look when you're down 41-0 on your turf against an invading team and you came into the game 10th ranked in the nation in a place you won 10 straight games that's right miami just has an incredible road record 15 regular season wins in a row on the road 17 out of 18. the only place they've lost on the road during the regular season under jimmy johnson illegal use of hands against the offense as you see this penalty will go against miami the only place they have lost was at michigan and that's certainly no sin a lot of people have lost at michigan that was a bad day for bernie kozak but they haven't had many of those bad days arkansas 46. well you know arkansas is losing when we're up here at a 50-yard line we hear the quarterback say black 90. it's so quiet that's the that's the 90 play that's the off tackle play you know it's quiet remember we talked about the crowd staying in the game and giving arkansas an advantage you forget it when you can hear the automatics this far away the game is over well the bodies are still here but the spirits left uh middle of the second quarter second and nine for miami walsh wants the screen throws it out for williams got a nice block there and william's still on his feet number 68 very painful avoided disaster getting him a block outside williams is impressive to me because of the fact that they break so many tackles you know that's the end of the third quarter here in little rock arkansas it's miami 41. arkansas nothing back with the fourth period in a moment getting ready to start the fourth quarter here in little rock arkansas miami continues to run away with it 41-0 and they own this ball game and apparently the ball which says university of miami on hurricanes third and three at the arkansas 40. walsh to henry his big tight end has it again loose ball miami got it back holy cow at the 34-yard line henry coughed it up and miami got the ball right back john o'neill the left tackle recovered miami's doing a nice little thing with henry you're running him into the seams real short and walsh throws it to him good now he gets hit from behind drops the football and when it's your day it's your day now they've got to be 17 guys from arkansas touch this ball and o'neill o'neal number 75 slips in and gets it and it's a first down for miami arkansas if they're taping this game and just like to hit the erase button and forget about it bratton who can't get outside brought down by roland and lasalle harper harper a linebacker a junior college all-american that they recruited and here's an update on some more finals out of the east for you ball spotted at the 34 where it'll be second and 10. 14 minutes exactly to go in this ball game seventh ranked miami you'd have to expect them to move up in the ratings seventh ranked and one pole fifth in the other they almost certainly move up after this one walsh throws and irving a little lack of concentration i think there and lost uh lost a handle on it irvin is is some pro scouts think he's the best receiver in the country right now you know they're so afraid of him they're gonna get they give him more and more they had a blitz that time number 54 owens come they got one-on-one coverage out there he doesn't concentrate and cooley comes in and tries to hit him but uh-huh well he's a perfectionist that's the one thing i've noticed about him automatically he wants every single play to be completed he's had three dropped and he's still 19 out of 27 for 209 yards and the touchdown just had an exceptional game no pressure again throws this time for williams out of the backfield inside the 30 and the arkansas defense converges on him there led by otis lloyd now we talked at the start of this ball game that miami likes to throw under coverage that was the coverage that arkansas was going to give them it was obviously not working why didn't they come with the blitz more do you think they were running the ball so effectively what miami did was a good point they thought the same thing we did that that arkansas would give them the short pass and they left themselves wide open for the run the running game has really clobbered arkansas greg cox who already has two field goals will come on to try one ball spot in the 37 it is a 47-yard attempt it has the distance and it's good miami with 12 59 game lengthens the lead again it's 44 nothing over arkansas number seven against number 10 has proved to be no contest miami 44 arkansas nothing 12 59 to go in the ball game johnny centers may have a chance to bring one back from three yards deep donny centers driven out of bounds at the 37-yard line by edgar venice the man who kicked it off and there is a flag down we'll check the penalty for you as you check out some of those other scores florida big today michigan and a walk over long beach state texas a m beat southern mississippi syracuse came from behind big victory on the road of virginia tech georgia over south carolina we have a dead ball face mask and you could have almost guessed couldn't hear that it would go against arkansas it's been those kind it's been one of those kind of days for the face mask call and we believe it was the guy who returned it i watched that's illegal you cannot do that nobody can use the face mask watch it from another angle he tries to stiff arm which is a good idea except you don't grab the face mask oh bennett's got a ride he didn't expect you know they're going to be some people 44 to nothing score are going to say you know did jimmy johnson run this score up and there's no way no way at all he did that even with the starters in here they need to run their offense they've got a sophomore quarterback they need to find out what he can do when grovey continues as the quarterback he wants to go deep this time and overthrown russell russell had a step on mcdowell who is the reserve corner and the nickelback grovey had him out there and he missed him but they get a nice hand for just going downfield for the idea well you know it's been a bad day when they cheer a long incomplete that's right and a bad day it has been you really like jimmy johnson's style of coaching oh yeah i tell you know one thing people i had a meeting with him this morning you know what he's most proud of the fact that his defensive team has improved more in the last three years than any other defensive team in america barry foster in there for the first time number 18 is fullback he and brown gets a couple maurice crum reserve linebacker brought him down you know miami gets a lot of publicity about quarterback university etcetera the reason why they're winning the last three or three years is because our defense used to give up 24 points a game before jimmy got there and now they only give up 12. he was a great defensive coach at oklahoma state at pittsburgh at arkansas right here as an assistant got to be a great time for him coming back to arkansas his alma mater where he was an all-american rovi back to throw pocket collapses and he rushes at him 40 45 fumble the ball let's see who got it no signal yet from the official and it's miami football roby after a fine play coughs it up and the hurricanes recovered jimmy jones comes out with a ball when it goes bad it goes bad as grovy goes back to pass they flush him out he does a great athletic job of getting it open but he's holding the ball you notice how he's holding the ball out too wide he should tuck that ball away now he's only a young player he'll remember that in number 63 jimmy jones from miami from okeechobee florida makes the play there's johnson it's going all right jim just relax everything's fine watch and grovey after a 17-yard carry making something happen so upset about it the young man turns the football over 11 56 to go still 44 nothing cfa football is being brought to you by volvo a car you can believe in something else you can believe in the miami hurricanes they're up 44 nothing over the 10th ranked razorbacks of arkansas we have 11 56 to go in the game erickson comes in at quarterback as miami takes over at the arkansas 43. we won gary and connolly the running backs behind him and this is conley and conley gets down to the 41-yard line update some of the bigger scores we have for you a tie auburn and tennessee 2020 and another major tie 13-13 ohio state and lsu auburn of course had the ball deep in tennessee territory and could not stop the clock it ran out before they could set up for anything wasn't that a big controversial play though it looked like uh there was a delay by tennessee erickson he throws nearside complete the blaze and he's down to the 30-yard line brian the older brother of defensive back all-american benny blades knocked out of bounds by cooney a couple of uh real high-water marks in this game greg cox a school record eight consecutive field goals and that's got to be very pleasing to miami because he had a poor 1986. he had an interesting reason for it he said for some reason they just didn't give him enough practice time on the kicking game and he went to the coach and asked you know he said he wanted the punter to be his holder and he wanted to get some more practice time but he got it and it worked out very well for him well right now they don't need him but i tell you what they play they play a good team next week at florida state in tallahassee florida they might need them and that's why those important plays were those vehicles miami always plays a tremendous intersectional schedule they always have even in the down years when they weren't doing well and they just go get pounded by people week in and week out they're now doing the pounding against a great schedule grovy on the sideline waiting for a chance to get back in second and seven erickson with plenty of time great pass protection by miami calmly out of the backfield gets to the 23-yard line wrapped up there lasalle harper on the stock i can tell you right now from just four plays of erickson he could start right now for arkansas he could start for half of the teams i've seen this year and the one thing about it gary stevens the quarterback coach must do a great job because these guys look like clones they're throwing the ball to the right people they're both young they've got a good conception they know how to pass protection they know how to throw the ball they've got a fine national football like league looking team down in nine minutes and 40 seconds to go first erickson here comes the blitz he picks it up throws complete to the sideline to dawkins the talent just keeps coming now what they do right there what they do there is that they put those they put your feet in ice the way if you have any kind of a twisted ankle because of the fact number one they don't want it to swell and that's what uh doing right there scott proven and matt patchin on the sideline must feel pretty good after uh working out all the time out there and a flag goes down before the snap and there's an interesting statistic statistic excuse me about the offensive line from miami from miami they got four of the five guys from out of state dead ball legal procedure against the offense in the neutral zone legal procedure five yard line or five yards and move them back near the 30. and jimmy johnson wants to know exactly what that was don't forget coming up right after our ball game penn state and boston college jim kelly and kevin kiley bringing you that ball game got some pressure this time deep over the middle nobody there intended for andre brown who was the deep receiver and erickson put it to 10 yards short of one receiver 10 yards over another again that just shows what kind of day it is that pass should have been intercepted but he threw the ball the only spot there wasn't an arkansas guy i mean that's it was the first pass he's missed on the afternoon five out of six for 50 yards in relief of steve walsh who had a brilliant ball game second and 15. erickson against precious throws this one intercepted by cooney cooney back to the 20s still on his feet at 25 driven down at 27. there is a flag down on the play as anthony cooney who has been picked on in past games picked that one off from craig erickson we'll check the penalty the flag appeared to have come on the return i think you'll see a clip there's a clip but that's the defense on the return 15 so it will be in arkansas possession anthony cooley is a former high school quarterback drops back now watch number 28 gets in a good back pedal he's in his own defense the ball is overthrown he catches the ball that's at least one good thing now the rule is once there's a change of possession you cannot block below the waist and or from behind and that's why it's a 15-yard penalty but they'll march it off and take arkansas all the way back to their own 13-yard line so with 9 17 to go in the ball game quinn grovey will come back on the field to lead this arkansas offense which has done virtually nothing today grovy himself seven yards rushing 41 passing he gives it to van dyke up the middle and van dyke for about three to the ten yard line willis page number 58 backup defensive end for all-american daniel stubbs is in the ball game now keep this in mind miami has played florida and arkansas they have given up four points both on safeties this is an incredible defense maybe the best in the country and it's game time on the sideline i'll tell you one thing jimmy johnson gets back and sees that tape i don't know who those two guys are brown and ellis i'll guarantee you one thing i promise you that they will be running at six o'clock monday morning i mean you know what i'm talking about there's something about beating a football team but you never ever do that on the sideline and he doesn't know it now but he i promise you when he gets home goes through six o'clock monday morning they'll be running around the miami stadium 33. rovi wants to throw under all the pressure in the world be sacked at the 17 or at the seven yard line maurice crump the linebacker coming on the blitz and grovy never had a chance trump is one of my favorite players number 49 he's a first year freshman from hillsborough high school in tampa the reason why i like hillsboro my wife of 30 years betsy graduated from hillsborough high school i've been waiting for crumb to do something all day oh he just got in a ball game dawkins is deep to receive as kendall traynor will have to punt from his own end zone low andover end dawkins look at this he's got a chance kendall trainer the kicker had to make the tackle inside the five well even when they put in the reserve kick returner he brings it back 36 yards the reserve defense holds arkansas it is all miami today dale dawkins sophomore from vero beach gets a little blocked in the middle there by number 27 michael johnson and there he goes they've got so much talent you know i found one thing that you never want to play a good team away from home because they can only bring their good players you'd rather play nebraska there where they got 100 guys not 50. ball spotted just outside the final first and goal at the six richard brothers makes the tackle on alex johnson and we're having a little barbecue on the sideline johnson into the ball game for the first time he's in at halfback warren williams and leonard conley have done the job in there and also in at fullback shannon crowell second goal bowl gets to the four otis lloyd makes the tackle and the miami players having a good time jimmy johnson uh has got to be enjoying this with a 44 nothing lead well you know jimmy's uh it was a graduate of arkansas in psychology and this morning i had to talk to him about his theory of pygmalion effect psychology that's psychology of high expectations and positive reinforcement and i'll tell you what when you win 16 on the road i'm going to try some of that pygmalion if i ever get back into coaching erickson with a touchdown pass and a rifle shot to junior andre brown and it is 50 to nothing miami over arkansas do you believe this okay you're also going to have a probably a conversation on the arkansas sideline of why did jimmy johnson throw the football with 44 to nothing beating this old school here because jimmy johnson does not call the offensive plays it was called from upstairs it doesn't look good when you're winning 44 to nothing and throw a touchdown pass and i don't care where it is i mean you run the ball and if you don't score you leave it there kick a field goal cox comes on to try the point after a whistle will stop play and it didn't look like they got it off in time so it'll cost them five watch erickson he goes back to pass it's good good protection in there by number 68 pan phil throws a ball lebron coming across the middle now there's brown he's probably been about the fourth team and looking good looking athlete like him and dawkins number 11 set it up with that beautiful punt return cox will now try a longer extra point but it's right down the pipe and the lead grows again it's miami 51 arkansas nothing i understand that's for players under 6'4 we ought to see some pretty good jump shooters in that lake you will not see any players from miami they all look like six six and better donny centers deep 6 46 to go in the game and miami has just really served notice on the rest of the country what kind of football team it is 51-0 over 10th ranked arkansas as the hurricane celebrate with 6 46 to go in the ball game we'll pause for this message we'll be back in just a moment one nothing a party atmosphere here in little rock but the party got off to a rocky start early grovie on the option keeps the ball gets up to about to 23. mercifully this one is winding down with 6 35 to go but it'll be a nice plane ride back to miami the hurricanes were delayed coming in here for almost three hours the last time they had a long delay in a ball game was when they were delayed two and a half hours getting to boston college by a hurricane and they won 48-10 so jimmy johnson may just delay every flight from now on and win by at least 40 points groving under pressure scrambling gets away got room to run across the 30 to the 31 for a first down well the young man can really scramble at 174 pounds boy grovey's a very competitive guy he would what he should do is just stay eligible enough for arena ball he could be all world in arena ball watch he tries to throw a long pass cannot get the ball off and then from then on he's got some great athletic ability i just wish he would carry the ball with a little bit more protection but he's learning see how he slipped the ball to his left hand and move forward he obviously is an exciting player for the arkansas razorback he's got to learn not to take shots too at only 5 10 174 pounds juju harsha number 44 freshman fullback is in there now grovy this time throws complete to his plate in winston across the 40 45 battling for more yardage out to about the 48-yard line brought down by maurice crumb number 49 and number 58 willis pages and one streak had to be broken in this game unless it was a tie arkansas after 10 straight wins here at war memorial stadium in little rock will lose miami will have won its 16th straight and they don't play the little sisters of the poor on the road either first and 10 arkansas with 509 to go one of their rare trips toward midfield against the second team miami defense airs it out for centers off his fingertips covered back there by bubba mcdowell and kenny barry gets back in the pass and watch this this is a good play because he throws the ball in perfect position mcdowell number 48 goes up and comes and knocks the ball out of his hands of centers number one now watch him get hit right here after he throws it that's a legal hit because he was going through the motion and didn't take more than one step when he hit him skip thompson number 81 at a wide receiver grobe on the quarterback draw very slippery runners killing his feet at the 40. 35 31-yard line of miami 23-yard run by quinn roby in relief of greg thomas dennis kelleher makes the tackle number 88 the defensive end who chased him down this was a predetermined play this is a quarterback draw he avoids three or four players he gets away from number 67 maryland and he drives himself forward he's in a very exciting play and you know what he makes things happen now they got him out of there for one reason he might have landed on his shoulder or they're going to give him a break thomas back in thanks to harshaw gives to johnson johnson plows his way ahead down to about the 27-yard line okay that's back becca number 65 he's the first arkansas player to graduate in three years with a major political sign he's a second year law student his father and brother both played at arkansas grovey comes back in at quarterback after that one play breather and beckett is one of those guys who has gotten everything out of his ability he is not a great physical specimen johnson on the toss to the 20s still on his feet at the 15 down to the 11 yard line and the arkansas fans finally have something to cheer about as greg mark number 94 makes the tackle downfield after his 16-yard game remember miami has not allowed anybody inside their 12-yard line to hand out a touchdown so it's a matter now of personal pride nice little pitch out to number 19 johnson he gets a good block by number 44 and he drives himself down the field and that first team defense for miami is on the sideline cheering on the second team defense they want to stop them the defense has not been scored on this year in two games harshaw the fullback down to about the seven russell maryland number 67 on his back of course ken hatfield wants to score you don't want to be shut out you saw the last time they were shut out we're down to 3 20 to go this may be arkansas's last crack at it second and six rouse he's got room to run arkansas some of the crowd remaining here and ken hatfield with a little smirk on his face as his team gets on the scoreboard with 302 to go roush with his 14th career touchdown trainer for the point after and he's got it so arkansas finally gets off the dime as rouse goes six yards watch a little misdirection play number four goldie hands off the 35 rouse and he goes in and scores out i wanted to make one statement there was only one miami starter in there number 94. everyone here agrees with that sign support the negotiations let's get this silly thing over with 51-70 right now miami leading arkansas here in little rock kendall traynor is on the kick at this point do you bother with an onside kick oh sure nothing else you're practicing they might need it against texas a m in about four weeks to win the game this is good football that's good for miami too they might need it against florida state next week which means you never give up coaching that's right trainer loose ball and it looked like tolbert bane got it right now let's check in with jim kelly at sullivan stadium in boston all right mike as you know the home of the new england patriots patriots right now passing rocks and bottles and eggs instead of the football we'll pass the pigskin of plenty a wide open game with boston college and cowboy jack mcnell and 14th ranked penn state the defending national champion a good crowd over 55 000 expected a court injunction no picket line so we've got boston college and penn state coming up let's go back to mike jim thanks very much 259 we hope your game is a little bit more competitive than this one has been i know arkansas had great hopes coming in but they didn't pan out and miami is obviously one of the best teams in the country erickson at quarterback young man's got some speed he gets out of bounds right about the first down marker at the arkansas 33-yard line that's not in the playbook that was an automatic toss to the left and everybody went to the left and erickson went to the right he makes 12 yards at 14 yards and looks like a very fine football player running it if this score holds up it would be arkansas's worst loss since 1943 when they were beaten by tulsa 61 to nothing 2 52 to go in this game want to thank john hahn our spotter from miami mike carr from arkansas and of course as always john madre our statistician and they'll go to alex johnson down to about the 32-yard line can you see the clock in the bottom right hand portion of your screen and that's all miami is working on right now as we update you on some of the baseball scores toronto came from behind what a huge win there and we understand that shannon crowell called him crowell and he's got the football hurdling one tackler down to the 27-yard line take a look at the remaining games from miami you can tell what kind of schools they play on this schedule and they've got florida state at tallahassee always a tough place to play then maryland east carolina cincinnati you see miami of ohio virginia tech the big one the one everybody might be waiting for november 28th against notre dame and then south carolina which might give miami a shout out to an undefeated season that game definitely on espn that's on our schedule erickson play fake naked bootleg again this time they have it diagnosed he's brought down by albert harris number 68. let's take a look at the arkansas schedule and you're going to see some games that on paper they should be able to win until you get down to 11 14 maybe 11-7 baylor with a fine ball game today but texas a m certainly could be a game for the conference championship and that one will be played in college station as coach kenny hadfield he started his career in helena arkansas let me tell you something about that guy i'll tell you in a second third and 11. they keep it on the ground a lot of people don't know this but you know what he started a new trend when he went to the air force academy he put the wishbone offense in the next person to put it in was jim young at army and now they put it in the navy he started a complete trend where every service academy now runs for wishbone based on what that man right there did at the air force academy at newest miami running back number 34 tracy waiters and fourth and five and miami will go for it they'll give it to johnson cuts off the left side he's got the first down to the 20 to the arkansas 17 yard line and the clock will stop on the first down with 31 seconds left you know university of miami is only 60 years old but they're still the largest independent teaching and research university in the southeast and that man jimmy johnson is bringing them up to where they could really there's no question play in the national championship game again i went on a trip to miami when i was in college and saw guys going to uh back and forth to class in boats and i said boy i'm growing up in the wrong area and they take it with number 31 freddie highsmith and if that's a familiar name in miami football it ought to be alonso of course had a great career here and the clock ticks down and jimmy johnson will get another big victory ride across the field here at war memorial stadium in little rock arkansas and certainly he deserves all the credit in the world along with his ball club they had an excellent game plan offensively and defensively and this has got to be one of the most lopsided victories you could ever expect arkansas came in undefeated and ranked 10th and miami simply blew them away you know it's got to be something special the man played here this is his school that's his teammate right the 1964 national championship team he was a captain in that team he loves arkansas this team was just so much better than arkansas he wasn't playing and if there's nothing he could do he just clobbered him well if you're going to come home you might as well do it this way come in and win by 44. that's our final here in little rock 51-7 miami over arkansas and we'll be back to wrap it up from little rock in just a moment live cfa football has been brought to you by budweiser beechwood aids for that clean crisp taste this bud's for you by qantas the airline of australia and the experts to the south pacific and by the u.s army a place to be all you can be our final score here in little rock the hurricanes miami 51 the arkansas razorbacks seven and our volvo players of the game are from the university of miami steve walsh 20 of 28 214 yards a brilliantly called game and the sophomore our player of the game for miami and for arkansas redshirt freshman quarterback quinn grovey who came off the bench to complete five of seven for 55 yards also rushed for 24 would have been far more than that except the sacks are deducted from his rushing yardage volvo will provide a thousand dollars to the general scholarship fund of each school coming up next penn state in boston our final score here in little rock a stunner miami 51 and arkansas seven coming up next the nittany lions of penn state and the eagles of boston college excellent game for third year sophomore steve walsh 214 yards passing a touchdown in two ball games against florida and arkansas he has thrown for nearly 450 yards with a couple of touchdowns and this young man is going to put himself in the record books as jimmy johnson wins his 31st game in four years as the miami head coach he has lost only eight times our final score again miami 51 arkansas seven the hurricane's undefeated arkansas drops to 2-1
