89-Yard Run
Makes Cannon
Back-of-Week
BATON ROUGE, La. OP)
When the going got rough for
Louisiana State, Billy Cannon got
'going on an 89-yard punt return
through five tacklers for a touch
down.
The feat won top-ranked LSU
a 7-3 victory over Mississippi Sat
urday and Cannon the Associated
Press back-of-the-week honors.
And it may have given him a
chance to repeat All-America hon
ors if he can couple it with a good
season finish.
Cannon said he didn't plan to
take the long bouncing, 47-yard
punt from Jake Gibbs on the LSU
11. His own earlier fumble had
helped Ole Miss to a 3-0 lead and
he didn't want to take any
chances
"The ball took a high bounce,"
Cannon said, "and fell right into
my arms ... I took two steps for
ward and just started running."
He has gained 1,647 yards rush
ing during his three-year college
career. Three regular season
games, against Tennessee, Missis
sippi State and Tulane, remain on
the LSU schedule.
The 22-year-old senior, father
of three daughters, is driving to
top the school record 1,707.
"I've never seen a - better run
in football," LSU Coach Paul
Dietzel said.
