’T’m thankful for the five years under Coach Don Shula.
We’ve got a great team and we’re going to the Super Bowl. But
I have no choice. I don’t plan to be here next year,” Morris
said. "I want to be traded, hopefully to a team with the second
best offensive line in football. The best one is here.”
Shula replied he’d try to accommodate Morris “if that’s still
his feeling at the end of the season.” But he added angrily: “If
he says he doesn't want to be here next week. I’ll try to take
care of 'hat, too.”
Morris and Shula said, separately, that there was mutual
respect and no malice intended. But the situation made for
another delicate problem in a series of Morris-Shula
disagreements dating from Super Bowl VI in 1972. Morris then
publicly beeled about being benched in Miami’s 24-3 loss to
Dallas.
Shula, irked at any challenge to his authority, said, “I make
the decisions and I don’t second-guess myself on Monday.”
Two weeks ago, Morris was second in the American Con
ference in rushing, behind Buffalo’s O.J. Simpson. Despite
only 42 yards on 17 carries in the last two games, he remains
in the AFC rushing race.

Paterno's air game
Lions'lead balloon
"lie can't run and he can’t pass. All he can
do is think and win."
the late Stanley Woodward on Joe Paterno
But most of all Joe Patemo can’t pass. He must still have
nightmares about some of his disastrous throwing days when
he was quarterbacking Brown University in the late 1940’5.
Maybe it's nicer to say he won’t pass.
Make no bones about it, what happened in Penn State’s 15-14
loss to North Carolina State was just the culmination of the
coming storm that’s been building all season: the Lions just
don’t pass. Patemo has always been one for the run. He
preaches the bad percentages of putting the ball in the air.
Players say Paterno won’t pass because John Andress is a
young quarterback. Come on Joe.
You can’t even consider Andress in the picture. He can’t
complete passes in situations like Saturday’s come-from
behind, last ditch drive (that floated into the sky when Chris
Bahr’s field goal attempt missed) because every time he
drops back to throw it’s like taking his arm out of hibernation.
Gorden Blain
Paterno calls the plays, not Andress. And for being the so
publicised “winningest” college football coach, he made some
wonderous calls against the Wolfpack.
“There were a thousand places in that game where I could
have done a better job of coaching in play selection,” Patemo
admitted after the stunning defeat. It was stunning that he
could continuously run the ball up the middle. Time and time
again it became a situation of first and 10, blow it again. When
the bodies untangled, it was a sure bet to see second and eight
or second and seven flash on the scoreboard. It looked like the
old cliche, “three yards and a cloud of dust. ’ ’
Many have said Penn State doesn’t have to pass, they have a
running game that’s too good. That’s not the case at all. Penn
State’s been winning the big and close games as they’ve
always have: by giving the ball to the other team and allowing
the Lion defense to win the game.
But don’t fault the offensive players. Saturday’s game
marked the first time Andress was allowed to throw 20 or
more times. Even then, most aerials were a necessity.
No wonder Penn State football crowds seem to “lose it"
during a game. Dope and alcohol help the Nittany Lion rooter
from being lulled to sleep by Penn State’s style of play.
Now it’s easy to dismiss this argument by merely calling
Saturday’s loss an off day for the Lions. “ What do you want?
You can’t win them all,” most will answer. Losing to a caliber
team like North Carolina State is nothing to be ashamed of but
then again the way the Lions lost was at least forgetful if not a
bit shameful.
Why forgetful? Maryland just the week before lost when
they tried a third down field goal in the final minute from past
40 yards. Penn State did the same thing. Paterno ran the ball
twice, both times Lion runners angling for the sidelines to stop
the clock. Then he left it up to Chris Bahr’s foot against a
strong wind. And Penn State found out how the Terrapins felt
Now ironic also was the trivial fact that Bahr missed four
field goals. The last time he did that was against Navy last
year when the Lions sunk in the mud, losing 7-6. Bahr's had his
problems when it comes to hitting the big kick. At Maryland it
took him three tries to boot home the winner. Sure he was
trying to kick field goals from Bellefonte on Saturday, trying
nothing under 46 yards, but he has made those before. But
then he made those long ones in the first, second, and third
quarters.
Everyone seemed to expect Penn State to be delivered in the
waning minutes like they've been so many times the last few
years. But North Carolina State is part of the new and tougher
opponents.- They are a far cry from the Temples that have
creeped on previous schedules.
But really why get so upset over the football team losing a
game, after all Joe says, “It’s just a game ... We’re going to
have a little fun playing the game.” Well, losing games like
that when the bowl people have the whole:Pacific Eight and
Big Ten to pick from might cost some people who play other
sports at Penn State luxuries they previously had.
If the people at Rec Hall are telling it like it is, no bowl game
means a shortage of funds. Paterno might be sorry he didn't
