  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.

    NATIONALS THINKING BIGGER THAN ONCE THOUGHT POSSIBLE, C1 EXPANDED COVERAGE, R4: Replacement offi cials lose control Secondary exposed by Rams’ Amendola; Carriker, Orakpo add to injury woes 31 28 G AMEDAY MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2012 ☆☆ washingtontimes.com/sports/football DOWN TO EARTH Big lead, Week 1 momentum go out window with loss BY RICH CAMPBELL THE WASHINGTON TIMES ST. LOUIS |The men who play professional foot- ball will tell you it is the most emotional of sports. That’s a byproduct of its physical nature and the machismo that inevitably accompanies that. This is the NFL, where the players are the biggest and fastest in the world. Fame and fortune only raise the stakes. Players also will tell you the retaliator usually is the one penalized. When emotions boil over on the fi eld, victory can be determined by poise and composure. When your opponent illegally hits you, how do you respond? That was on Joshua Morgan’s mind as he sat at his locker Sunday evening, towel wrapped around his waist, staring at his cellphone. For all the skir- mishes that occurred during and after plays in the Washington Redskins’ 31-28 loss to the St. Louis Rams, and for all the good and bad plays the Red- skins made while staying within reach of victory, one truth mattered more than any other. Morgan was the retaliator. And, of course, he was caught. The Redskins wide receiver was penalized 15 yards for throwing the ball at Rams cornerback Cortland Finnegan with 1:18 remaining in a 3-point game.

EARLY ON WHEN VINCE WILFORK LINED UP ON THE PATRIOTS LEFT, THE COLTS RAN AWAY FROM HIM, AND SEEMED TO RUN AT WILL. WHEN BILL BELICHICK MOVED WILFORK TO THE RIGHT, THE MOMENTUM OF THE GAME CHANGED. THE PATRIOTS PULLED AWAY BEHIND TOM BRADY‟S 331 YARDS AND 3 TOUCHDOWNS. ROB GRONKOWSKI CAUGHT TWO TD PASSES, BUT BROKE HIS FOREARM AND IS EXPECTED TO MISS 4-6 WEEKS. ARIZONA CARDINALS @ ATLANTA FALCONS GETTING HIT BELOW THE BELT CAN BRING A MAN TO HIS KNEES. SO CAN A PUNCH TO THE MOUTH. GOOD THING MATT RYAN HAS AN IRON JAW. THE ONLY THING RYAN SUFFERED FROM WAS A BRUISED EGO AFTER GETTING PICKED-OFF A CAREER HIGH FIVE TIMES. RYAN WIRE – “IT‟S EITHER FEAST OR FAMINE AGAINST THIS DEFENSE, WE JUST GOTTA KEEP GOING.” FORTUNATELY FOR RYAN, ATLANTA‟S DEFENSE DEVOURED QUARTERBACK RYAN LINDLEY TO KEEP THE GAME CLOSE. RYAN REDEEMED HIMSELF BY LEADING ATLANTA TO A GAME-WINNING TOUCHDOWN IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.
