Games for October 3, 1992
-------------------------

Bowling Green 17, Central Michigan 14: Once again, Bowling Green found a way to
                                       win late in the game.  This time, it was
a 33 yard filed goal by Brian Leaver with 4 minutes to play which capped the
comeback.  George Johnson also had two touchdowns for the Falcons.  Leaver's
field goal came at the end of a 12 play, 60 yard drive.  On the other side of
the ball, Chuck Selinger missed three field goal attempts and had one blocked
for the Chippewas.  22,875 saw this one in Mount Pleasant Michigan.

Western Michigan 21, Ball State 14: This was a see-saw battle.  Ball State went
                                    up in the first quarter on a 2 yard run by
Croom.  Western then came back and knotted the score on a brad Tayles 2 yard
run.  Western then went ahead on a 23 yard interception return for a touchdown
by Ricks. This lead was relinquished when Ball State quarterback Mike Neu
hooked up with Oliver on pass which covered 68 yards and ended in a touchdown.
But in the end, that looked like small potatos compared to Tayles 84 yard pass
play to Morton for the winning score.  15,333 saw this one in Kalamazoo
Michigan.

Akron 13, Ohio 0: The Zips continued their winning ways by beating the Bobcats
                  on the strength of 146 yards rushing by quarterback Marcel
Weems.  Daron Alcorn added two filed goals of 21 and 22 yards.  Alson Darrien
Gouch ran for 94 yards on 18 carries.  10,318 attended the game in Athens Ohio.

Cincinnati 31, Kent 0: The Bearcats have been steadily improving ever since the
                       infamous 81-0 drubbing at the hands of Penn State last
year.  This week, it came at the expess of the struggling Kent Golden Flashes.
David Small collected an impressive 233 yards rushing and tied a school record
with four touchdowns to lead Cincinnati.  16,903 saw the game in Cincinnati.

Miami 24, Eastern Michigan 7: The Redskins continued to show their strength on
                              the defensive side of the ball by hold the Eagles
to a mere 4 yards passing in the game.  Deland McCullough ran for 115 yards and
scored two touchdowns for Miami.  Jan Quarless could not help the hapless
Eagles and lost in his debut as head coach.  18,094 came out to see the game in
Ypsilanti Michigan. (That's right, the Eagles are winless and this game still
lead 3/4 of the league in attendance!)

Toledo was idle.

I was 4-1 in my picks this week.
I am 21-12 in picks for the season.
