In the very beginning of the second period, Knight Charlie Evans picked up his first of two fumble recoveries from Wyoming. The loose ball was snagged by Evans at the L-L 15. The Knights then trampled 85 yards with the passing of fieldmaster Tony Stevens and the running of Bob Engle. The last of this series saw Bill Kern hitting paydirt on a Stevens’ four yard pass play. The conversion at- tempt was in vain, tallying the score at 14-6.

The Knights kicked-off to the Warriors in the opening of the second half. It was taken by Beg ini on the five yard line, thus Yacing down the sideline and missing many tackle at- tempts by the Knights. With a great deal of luck, he eluded the ! Knight attack and went all the : way only to be called back by the officials at the 27 yard line where he stepped out of bounds. Five plays later, Langan ran the ball in from the one yard line for his second score. with 9:30 left in the third quarter. The two point conversion at- tempt was good making the ' score 22-6.

They were unable to move the ball and were faced with a fourth down punting situation. Before the punt, the snap went over the head of Rick Newhart, and he was ditched on the 15 yard line. Wyoming gained control of the ball and on the first play of this series, Langan ran the 15 yards for his last tally of the night. The PAT was hit by Pace. Not long after this Warrior tally, another followed. When the Knights fumbled the wet and slippery football, Wyoming regained control on their own 4 47.
