Tiki Barber provided the New York Giants some revenge for Deion Sanders' heroics against them a year ago. Barber returned a punt 85 yards for a touch down, then took a short pass 56 yards to set up Brad Daluiso's 22-yard game-winning field goal with 1 second left and give the Giants a 13-10 victory against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night. The game was 3-3 until Barber's punt return with 7:50 left in regulation gave the Giants a 10- 3 lead. But Emmitt Smith scored on a 2-yard run at the end of a 68-yard, seven-play drive to tie it 10-10. That led to more heroics by Barber, who had 233 all-purpose yards in the game. On a second-and-10 from their own 41, Kent Graham found Barber in the flat, and he eluded Dat Nguyen and raced to the Dallas 3, setting up Daluiso's game-winner. AP Photo/Ed Bertz "I saw I was 60 yards away with 20 seconds left and I thought 'Just split the defenders' like I'm told," Barber said. Steelers haven't lost so many in a row at home since dropping their final six in 1969 at Pitt Stadium and their first game at Three Rivers in 1970. Numerous factors have been cited for the Steelers' home col lapse, even the restrictions placed on tailgating at parking lots adja cent to the stadium.

The victory was the first for the Giants (3-3) in seven Monday night meetings with the Cow boys. It also atoned for a 31-7 thrashing on a Mon day night by Dallas (3-2) last season, when Sanders returned a punt and an interception for a touchdown. "We were embarrassed last year," Barber said. "We wanted to hold down Deion and I think we did it. Then we made the big plays." But the Giants got a scare After Daluiso's game-winning field goal, he squibbed a kick and Dallas began lateraling. They got into the end zone but it was called back because one of the passes clearly went forward. "I was at Stanford during the Stanford-Cal fiasco," Giants coach Jim Fassel said, referring to the play on which Cal returned a last-second kickoff for a touchdown through the Stanford band. "We didn't get it deep enough and I was seeing ghosts for a few seconds. - Daluiso tore a ligament in his right knee on the play and is probably lost for the season. This was a game for defense, or poor offense. Until Barber's punt return the only scoring was field goals of 27 yards by Daluiso and 41 yards by Richie Cunningham. Cunningham, however, also missed from 48 and 41 yards, the latter on the final play of the third quarter, when the Giants called time out to force him to punt into the tricky Meadowlands winds of 10- to-20 mph. Bill Cowher Pittsburgh Steelers coach dating environment for opponents A more likely cause: the Steelers' inability to find their own end zone. During the streak, Kordell Stewart is 48-of-104 for 423 yards, no touch downs and six interceptions. He hasn't thrown a touchdown pass at home since last year's Jacksonville game and has only five touchdown passes in his last 12 starts. At times, Stewart seems tenta tive and afraid to make mistakes in tt DAY WITHOUT ME COLLEGIAN IS UNBEARABLE!

The fans didn't give him much margin for error this year, booing him loudly late in the first quarter of the home opener against Seattle. "I don't think the fans have any thing to do with it," Cowher said. "For some reason, we just haven't played well at home." With six of their final 10 at home, the Steelers (3-31 desperately need to regain their home field edge if they are to challenge for the play offs. Their only victories so far are against AFC tailenders Baltimore, Cincinnati and Cleveland. -People wrote us off too quick after we lost those home games," rookie wide receiver Troy Edwards said.

The Daily Collegian Wednesday, Oct. 20, 1999 "The wind was trickier than it appeared," Fassel said. "And it was swirling. I thought it was worth a timeout and it worked out." Smith, who needed 25 yards to get to 13,000 for his career, got there on his touchdown run. But he finished with just 26 yards on 22 carries as the Giants totally shut down the Dallas run ning game. But Troy Aikman came through late for Dal las, going 20-of-33 for 266 yards. Graham finished 15-of-21 for 183 yards in his first game back after missing last week with a concussion. Still, it was mostly defense. The Cowboys sacked Graham five times and the Giants got Aikman three times as both quar terbacks were constantly under pressure. Dallas also had a number of injuries, the most serious to rookie wide receiver Wane McGarity. who separated a shoulder tackling New York's Sam Garnes after Garnes intercepted a pass at the New York 7 to thwart a Dallas drive in the second quarter. That led to an 80-yard drive that led to Daluiso's first field goal. The Giants eschewed a fourth-and-1 at the Dallas 10 to try the kick. Meanwhile, Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin signed a six-year contract extension before he was sidelined with a spine injury, but team officials said Irvin had already reached incentives that give him the option of becoming a free agent at the end of this season. Owner Jerry Jones said Monday that Irvin received an unspecified signing bonus when the deal was finalized earlier in the regular season. been a hard offense to learn. But once we learn it, nobody can stop And, so far, Atlanta's offense still hasn't gotten started. With running back Jamal Anderson injured and out for the season, the Falcons haven't mounted the sem blance of an attack and were beat en at home Sunday by St. Louis 41- 13. "But I remember two years ago, when they started 1-7 but they fin ished 7-1," Cowher said. "If there's any coach who will make sure they don't lay down, it's Dan Reeves. If you watch their film, it's evident they haven't quit." Steelers All-Pro center Dermont ti Dawson, who missed the last three quarters Sunday at Cincin nati with a pulled hamstring, is list ed as questionable.
