Frosh find leads Beckeyes by N.C.

Frosh Find Leads Buckeyes By N. C. By TOM CALLAHAN Enquirer Sports Reporter COLUMBUS, Ohio In the desperate quality of North Carolina coach Bill Dooley's post-game, admission was the entire story of Saturday's game. "We didn't know that Griffin existed," confessed Dooley meekly after his previously-unbeaten Tarheels fell, 29-14, to Ohio State. "Is he really a freshman?" asked Dooley ously. "Really?" Indeed, Archie Griffin, 18. a Columbus native, a tailback extraordinaire, is a freshman. Saturday he inspired coach Woody Hayes to deliver unknowingly perhaps the greatest line of this young college football season. never been for or"a against freshman rule,' rang Woody, "but Archie has made me change my mind." Barging tackle or skating up the sidelines, Griffin carried 2 27 times for 239 yards, a Buckeye record displacing Ollie Cline's sert-229-yard moment against Pittsburgh back in 1945. Archie broke away 55, 32 and 22-yard gains during the day, providing From plate behind JOHNNY the BENCH by by photographed place your advance order for johnny bench's book. ...

" "He had never played before 86,000 before. He had never been here before. It's really something." So was the Buckeye offensive line. Although few Frost Froilc Ohio State N.

Ohio State's second victory without a loss was neither as one-sided nor as close as it sounds from the score. That sounds like a Hayes-ism, but it is really the case. At half, the home team (116 OSU football players dressed!) was up by a mere Tarheel defensive end Gene Brown scoring early by covering a blocked punt that bounced from the 27 into the end zone. But Griffin, who had played barely at all in the Buckeye opener with Iowa, danced his new team into a 29-7 lead, finally scoring the first touchdown of his collegiate career in the last quarter from the nine. 42-yard prayer from North Carolina quarterback Nick Vidnovic to split end Earle Bethea was answered as time ran out to give the final score more respectability. OSU quarterback Greg Hare, fullback Harold Henson, Griffin and Keith ended up with the touchdowns Keith's perhaps the most-telling. That was an 11-yard dash that made the score 16-7 before too long in the third quarter. "It was all the doing of the line today," said the junior from Moeller, found outside the Ohio Stadium. (Woody doesn't allow players to be interviewed, bed, you know.) "And Griffin," he added. "We all knew he was good. I didn't even know about the record, though, until I heard it announced. I was happy for him." Griffin was pretty easy to spot walking around campus, too. He was the many with the young game black ball under his arm. "I tell you, it was all the line," whispered 5-10, 185-p o u n de r, the "Ohio Back of the Year" at Eastmoor High last season. "It's really good,"; he murmured simply, a bit afraid to say too much. "I played a lot in practice this week. I didn't know I'd play so much in the game. Just simple of kle stuff did it." Keith, who had also been a fine wrestler at Moeller, is listed on the depth chart behind Henson. Randy is clearly the better blocker. "They say I'm a blockshillin's Buckeyes Ohio State's Morris er," Randy smiles, "but it is what I told to do. I think I'm a good runner, too." Nevertheless, when Hayes wants to do his running from fullback, he seems to favor Henson. When he is going from tailback, he uses the blocker, Keith. Keith explained he had helped recruit Griffin ("Guys on the floor did") whose halftime yardage Saturday totalled 111 and who was 15 yards short of the record entering the last period. "We looked for fullback offense," shrugged coach Dooley, who couldn't get that terrible Ohio State I-Formation out of his mind. "Archie (Griffin) spoke for himself today," Hayes said.
