We wanted to simplify some things and try to get more execution into the guts part of our offense. o in the past used to get us four or five yards a pop. Lately, weve been getting only three, maybe four yards a run. The Aggies went back to basics and it paid off. The offensive line did an exceptional job opening holes for Maurice Turner, Andrea Bynum and Eric Adams. The lets establish the running game theory" proved correct again this day. Samuels, operating mainly as a dropback passer, tacked on 187 yards passing. USUs 517 yards total offense was the most for an Aggie team since 1978. drives, the Using Aggies scored on their second possession, going 93 yards in 11 plays with Bynum slamming over the left side from the one.

Beechers longest of his career. And when the former Logan High field goal on kicker added a the final play of the third quarter, Beecher ran his successful field goal string to six for the season and 12 of 13 dating back to midseason last year. The Aggies broke it open in the third quarter, scoring 17 points to take a 30-- 0 lead. Samuels, who hit 14 of 27 passes and had one intercepted, fired a scoring strike to Fred Fernandes with 9: 14 showing in the period. Just before the TD pass, Samuels called a time out after looking over the Bengals defense. On the scoring play, Fernandes got behind the secondary and Samuels laid one on him perfectly. Two minutes later the Aggies scored again, and it was a punt return by Fernandes which set this touchdown in gear. After Fernandes return, the Aggies were stationed at the ISU 35 A reverse run by Paul Jones was good for 18 yards Adams earned the final 17 yards as he ran through several Bengals. d USU now led 27-- Then came Beecher's field goal the final play of the third on" quarter.

The Big Sky Conference party is over over almost before it began for Weber State. History tells us that no team has ever won the Big Sky football championship in the history of the conference with two losses. So credit unbeaten Montana State with turning out the lights on Webers 1982 championship aspirations by whipping the Wildcats 0 Saturday evening before 10,320 onlookers at Wildcat Stadium. It was fitting that Montana State Coach Doug Graber was speaking of execution after the Bobcats riddled Weber States defense for 407 total yards while extending their winning streak to four games and advancing to 0 in the Big Sky standings. It was fitting because "execute is precisely what MSU did to Weber State on a crisp autumn evening. "I couldn't be more pleased with our execution, noted Graber, the first-yea- r Montana State Coach whose team has already won more games than it did during the entire 1981 season under Sonny Lubick. "We controlled the ball in the second half, and that had a great effect on the outcome. Weber cant score if it doesnt have the ball. 23-2- 3-- Indeed. Montana States domination was so complete in the third quarter that Weber owned the football for only 2:55 while the Bobcats had possession for 12:05. It was a similar situation in the final 15 minutes, with the Wildcats seeing the ball for only six minutes. Its frustrating, admitted Weber Coach Mike Price, whose Wildcats dropped to 2 in the conference, 4 overall, and are now e the owners of a losing streak. Their game plan was to keep our offense off the field and they did a great job of that in the second half. It seemed like their offense was on the field for long periods of time, and that hurt. 0-- four-gam- No, we cant win the conference this year now, continued an emotionally deflated Price. Our role will be a spoiler role now. We still hope we can win seven games, but that will be difficult. Well have to win six in a row to do it now. There were three principal figures who enabled Montana State to tattoo the Wildcats in a game which was not as close as the final score might indicate, thanks to a Weber State touchdown run on the final play of the game by Kelvin Matthews that reduced the winning margin to a mere three points. First, senior running back Tony Boddie terrorized Weber State. The Bremerton, Wash., native Special to The Tribune Jazz Coach Frank Layden warned to learn some things from his opening exhibition game Saturday night About the only thing he learned was that the Kansas City Kings are probably a bit more ready for the NBA season than his Jazz team is The young Kings, who were beaten badly by the Jazz m two exhibition games a year ago, blew past the Jazz in this one, at the St Joseph Civic Center It was the exhibition opener for both teams, and the Jazz will go back to the drawing board for four more practice sessions in the next three days before departing Wed road trip nesday for a that will include six more pre season games Mike Woodson led the Kings with 21 points The guard from Indiana fired in 13 of those in the third quarter, which the Kings concluded with a 12 2 sprint that left them with a lead with 12 minutes to play.

In a nutshell, Boddie n was almost a wrecking ball. However, MSU quarterback Mike Godfrey also assisted in dimming the lights on a promising season for the Wildcats. Godfrey picked apart the Weber secondary for 21 completions in 31 attempts passing. His 249 aerial yards and two touchdowns sealed Weber States tomb. But Godfrey also had an assistant in tight end Joe Bignell, who seemed to make catches all the crucial third-downight and concluded the game with nine receptions for 76 yards. Meanwhile, on the Weber side of the ledger, quarterback Tim Bernal did not enjoy a memorable evening, connecting on only 11 of 27 passes for a paltry 136 yards. That was a season low for Bernal yardage-wise- . one-ma- "Tim didn't have a great game, but I dont think you can put the blame on the quarterback alone, suggested Price, whose Cats havent won since a victory over Eastern Washington on Sept. 11 "Montana State is a good football team. They proved that to against Utah (while losing open the season). They just controlled the clock and controlled the 27-2- 4 30-1- 2 game." See Page D-- Column 135-10- 1 5, Dantleys 24 Leads Utah Nothing has changed at the top of the Jazz scoring column. Adrian Dantley was there again, leading the way with 24 points, 14 of them in the first quarter, which was about the only one in which the Jazz played K.C. evenly. It was a messy, game, and the fouls certainly didn't make things easy for a couple of Jazz players who wanted to make good impressions Steve Trumbo, the rookie from Brigham Young, made his first entrance into a pro game with 2:04 left in the first quarter, and within one minute, he was whistled for three personals It wasn't a great forward debut, and the wound up with two points in the from the foul line. game on Howard Wood, who is fighting Trumbo for the last frontcourt spot on the Jazz roster, also was inhibited by fouls, as he collected five of (hem in his time on the floor.

Lewis ran Alabamas wishbone to in the first half and froze Penn States defense with his slick fakes and cuts. The junior carried 13 times in the first half for 61 yards, including a touchdown run with less than three minutes gone in the game, and completed 7 to 10 passes for 74 yards, throwing six yards to Joe Carter for a TD on the second play of the second quarter that snapped a 7 deadlock. He completed his brilliant first-hal- f performance by running five times for 40 yards and shoveling an underhand pass to fullback Don Horstead behind the line for 13 more to set up Lenny Patricks run with 2:24 left in the half that gave the Crimson Tide a lead. However, Alabama needed field goals of 27 and 47 yards by Peter Kim, the latter with 7:11 left to play, to withstand a pair of Penn State touchdowns in the second half on Jon Williams run midway through the third period and Todd Blackledges pass to Kevin Baugh with 13:52 remaining that cut the Alabama lead to 1 Kims second field goal followed Jeremiah Castilles interception at the Alabama 27 with 10:52 remaining, one of five passes Blackledge had picked off.

Two touchdown passes by Blackthe first teaming with Curt ledge to tie the Warner on a score gave Blackledge 17 for the year, breaking the singleseason Penn State record he shared with John Hufnagel (1972) and Chuck Fusina (1977). The victory boosted Alabama's record to 0 and gave Coach Bear Bryant his 320th coaching triumph, including a 0 mark against Penn States Joe Patemo.

The offense responded to the challenge. With the line doing by far its best job of blocking this season, Bynum enjoyed his best day as an Aggie with 93 yards. Not far behind was Turner with 86 rushing yards. Adams added 77 more. Samuels was on the spot, in more ways than one.

It was nice to see your team come off the ball and capture the line of scrimmage like we did today. The Aggie defense harrassed Bengal quarterback Paul Peterson all day. Peterson connected on 20 of 43 aerials for 245 yards, but he took a lot of punishment from a good pass rush and an occasional blitz. That kid (Peterson) should get some kind of medal for staying in said there against our guys, Snyder. We put an awful lot of pressure on him and he took a lot of hits."

Layden said he wanted to look at different combinations in this game such as. Drew' and Dantley playing together in the frontcourt, and Jeff Wilkins playing some at power forward.
