Page 6 from the Well, the Raiders finally had a 'fun' game last week. It was a game in which they were very much the domi- nant team and had things their way from the By Ron Rife beginning. After going through seven tough games it was nice for them to get a game like that before the end of the season. It wasn't much 'fun' for L&M, how- ever. The Falcons, once again, are suffering through a season in which they don't seem to be very competitive in district play. Since they have one win for the season they obviously beat someone in the first two weeks in non - dis- trict play, but they're 0-6 in dis- trict play with Williamsburg left to play. The Raiders close the season this week with a game at Lone Tree against Clear Creek Amana. It will Parent's Night. Clear Creek - Amana comes in with a 2-4 record in the district and 2-6 overall. An effort like the one last Friday should give the Raiders a victory and let them fin- ish the season 4-3 in the district. Since I'm figuring Tipton is going to beat Mid - Prairie this week that would leave Highland - Lone Tree and Mid -Prairie tied for third in the district. On the Iowa scene, the Hawkeye offense continues to be rather inconsistent. On some occasions Saturday they moved the ball down the field very well. On other occasions it was pretty ugly. The drive deep into Penn State territory just before Penn State scored was a good one. By the way, for all of you Nathan Chandler haters out there, that intercepted pass that was run back for a touchdown wasn't his fault. Put the blame on Tony Jackson, I think. It looked like #81 on the left end of the line on that play. He was playing tight end and was supposed to block Yisrael on that play, leaving a path for Ochoa to run and Chandler to throw. Jackson missed the block, Yisrael stepped forward and there was the ball so he grabbed it and went 83 yards for a touchdown. It was rather disconcerting, though, to look at the scoreboard at the end of the first quarter and see that Iowa had all kinds of yards and no points and Penn State had a total of one yard of offense and seven points. It sort of made you wonder what other kinds of weird things were going to happen in that game that might wind up giving JoePa his first conference win of the year. But, the Hawks got things going their way and managed to two touchdowns to get the 12-7 halftime lead. Besides the blocked punt for the touchdown there was another play in the third quarter that, I think, symbolizes the tenaciousness of this Iowa defense. Penn State completed a pass to a back out in the left flat and Bob Sanders was right there to make the tackle. The receiver juked and jived, trying to fake Sanders out, but he steadily moved in, not being faked, and made the tackle for about a two yard loss. I told the guy sitting next to me that looked like a lion stalking a gazelle on the African plains. You just knew that, no matter which way that 'gazelle' moved, there was going to be no escape from 'lion' #33.
