Most of the sportswriters mentioned the part hed played in Techs unbeaten, untied season, and that this was his last college game. There was straw strewn under the bench and Jerry kicked it into a pile for his feet. He sat down and one of the assistant managers tucked a blanket around his legs. Jerry wished that hed missed in the previous game. He was due to miss. He was overdue. Hed expected it a week ago, and the Saturday before. Tech bad had a nice comfortable lead in both those games. They didn't need his points. Today, they were trailing the Aggies 8 to 0, and it was raining, and it was his last game in a Tech uniform. There was a hoarse murmur from the crowd in the opposite stands, and he saw the Aggies sprinting out on the field. Theyd changed to dry uniforms and it took Jerry a moment to spot the two new men in the Aggie backfleld. Tall men, and fast. Farraday sat next to him. He said: Were wearing them down.

But the Aggie kicker was good, too. Jerry couldn't keep from watching the clock on the scoreboard. The big second hand jerked around, stopped, moved again. Jerry found himself nodding as the hand jerked. He was cold inside; a chill that had -nothing to do with the wind and rain. Every minute passing made the odds against him greater. The quarter ended; the teams changed goals. Now, hed have the wind fighting him when he tried to kick. His luck was out all right cried Farraday, startled. Hey! Heyl Jerry snapped awake. A fumble.
