I Pellegrini received a blow IL

the first half and the pain wa
so great it affected him in TIT

Maybe he should have told some

Pellegrini's spirit never ask to b.

be for the good of the team.
When he intercepted an Okla.

i"I had the ball but ! didn't know
how I got it. or what to do with
it," Bob said.
Finally they persuaded him tt

after the bali game.
| Ed vereb, with a performance
that must have gladdened the
Redskins, his future employers,
staked Maryland to its halftime
lead. He did it with an example

his head. a touchdown run of Is

yards before he was caught on

Tamburello's tumble.
S0oners Abandon FrilIs
But when they came out for
the second half. the Sooners
abandoned the frills, the no.
look pitchouts. the reckless
passes and most of the wide

hit hard. Most of all, with canny

almost unbelievable pace in put

The Sooners do this better than
any team in the country. While
Maryland was humping heads In
practice here for a week with
ID members of the B squad to

sessions, Oklahoma was concen-
trating on using its speed, and
that's where it won the ball
game.
Pressure Kept on Terps
Not once did Oklahoma catch
Maryland out Of its defensive
alignment with its quick huddle,
but it kept the pressure on and
undoubtedly bothered the Terps.
