A&T Miscues Prove
Costly; Rattlers Down
Aggies, 26-9
By Richard E. Moore
Florida A&M exploited Its
own speed and capitalized on
North Carolina A&Ts bumbling
play to down the Aggies 28-9
before 15,000 Jans in an inter
sectional football game here
last Saturday afternoon.
Jake Gaither's Rattlers, struck
for two touchdowns in the first
half while virtually shutlng off
the Aggies' heralded passer Stan
Jacobs. FAMU then added
scores in the third and fourth
periods to clinch the win.
The victory was the 199th
career win for Gaither, the win
ningest coach in the nation. By
winning, the Rattlers upped
their season's record to 4-1.
A&T, still very much in the
running for the CIAA cham
pionship, is now 5-2 for the
year.
It was certainly A&T's mis
cues, including five intercep
tions, that cost the Aggies the
game. On the other hand, the
speedy Rattlers, paced by jun
ior quarterback Steve Scruggs,
played almost flawless ball in
controlling the game.
Scruggs, an outstanding scram
bler, threw touchdown passes of
42 yards and 81 -yards to flanker
Kent Schoolfield and halfback
A1 Sykes respectively.
He then polished off his af
ternoon's play early In the
fourth quarter with a sterling
96-yard touchdown run.
The other FAMU score came
at the opening of the second
quarter on a one-yard plunge
by fullback Hubert Ginn.
The Aggies again muffed
several scoring chances in both
periods, but managed to score
on a 23-yard pass from Jacobs
to senior end Daryle Cherry
with 7:28 left in the third period.
That score, followed by John |
Guy's placement, narrowed the
gap to 20-7, but three plays
following the ensuing kickoff,
Scruggs tossed the long scoring
bomb to end A1 Sykes to make
it, 26-7, almost out of reach
for A&T.
The Aggies' final points came
with 3:12 left in the game when
A&T defenders Billy Gaines and
Freddie Hunter nailed Ginn in
the end zone for a safety.
FAMU's first score, the 42
yard pass from Scruggs to
Schoolfleld had come at 3:48 of
the first period, after the Rat
tlers got the ball on an A&T
fumble.
An interception by FAMU's
Melvin Rogers on A&T's 32 set
up Ginn'* touchdown run.
Scruggs topped FAMU's run
ners with 109 yards In nine car
ries. . A&T's Jacobs gained 160
yards in 18 of 35 completions.
His touchdown pass to Cherry
was his 12th of the season.
