up with no place to go.
The NCAA's recent disciplinar,
order against the Florida school,
banning post-season competition
puts a pretty sturdy roadblock be
tween Miami and a bowl bid. And
the way the Hurricanes are going,
it looks like that order may be the
only device capable of stopping
Miami this season.
Miami, a newcomer at the No.
10 spot in this weeks Associated
Press poll after defeating Mary
land, exploded in all directions for
its sixth victory of the season last
night, hurhiliating Fordham' S
Rams 75-7.
1t was the highest score ever
run up by Miami team and more
than made up for 200 upset the
Rams perpetrated against the Hur-
ricanes last season in New York's
Polo Grounds.
The score was 41-0 at the half
as the Hurricanes got off to a
good start on 11-touchdown ram
page. Nine different ball carriers
did the scoring with Gordon NAL
10y, Miami's All-America candi.
date, and Sam Scarneccia each
scoring twice. In all, Miami rolled
to 373 yards rushing and added SO
yards on three of five pass at
tempts.
The Hurricanes weren't COM
pletely wrapped up in offense,
however. Miami's defense rocked
the Rams for a minus 2 yards
rushing.
In other Friday action that got
another big college weekend under
way, Marquette defeated Detroit
14-13, the Citadel upset Wofford's
six-game winning streak 14-13,
Richmond knocked off George
Washington 10 and Denver de-
feated New Mexico 1876.
With Miami already safely home,
it's up to Ohio State, Oklahoma,
UCLA and the rest of the top 20
to do as well today. Ohio's Buck
eyes, the No. / team, look to have
an easy opponent in Northwestern.
An OSU victory coupled with a
Michigan success against Indiana
would bring the two Big Ten lead
ers another step closer to title
Rose Bowl meeting Nov. 20.
Oklahoma quarterback il m
Harris and end Carl Allison, weak
ened by the flu, has a job on its
hands with Colorado, a fellow Big
Seven member that was looking
to the No. 2 Sooners too soon last
week and lost to Nebraska. An
other big game in the Big Seven
pairs Missouri and Nebraska, both
hot on the Orange Bowl trail since
Oklahoma is ineligible.
UCLA, No. 3, has a not-so-easy
opponent in California, since the
Bears still have a Rose Bowl trip
in mind. The Uclans, toast of the
coast, can't make the big bowl
visit again this season.
Southern California, the other
coast bowl hopeful, plays Oregon
State.
The No. 4 team, Arkansas, runs
into Texas A & M in search of its
sixth straight victory.
Army, No. S, tries for victory
No. S since its pening defeat to
South Carolina and ought to find
it against Virginia. The other SER
vice team, Navy, squares off
against Notre Dame, the No. 6
team.
West Virginia's unbeaten Noun
taineers, listed No. Z have what
may be the toughest job in the
top 10. They face up-and-coming
Pittsburgh. Eighth-ranked Wiscon-
sin plays Iowa and Purdue, No. 8,
hits Illinois.
