Cowboys, Oilers remain optimistic
Glanville finds bright spots in last-minute loss to Steelers
HOUSTON (AP) — Houston
Oilers Coach Jerry Glanville said
Monday he’s not ready to paint a
bad picture of Sunday’s last-min
ute 37-34 loss to Pittsburgh.
“When you put yourself in a
position to come down the field
and win the game in the final
minutes, somebody is doing
something right,” Glanville said.
“You have to be careful when
you get beat not to take a paint
brush and say it was a terrible
game.”
Houston quarterback Warren
Moon scored his second touch
down with 1:30 to play, giving the
Oilers a 34-31 lead.
winning points with 20 seconds to
play.
“We had chances in their final
drive to stop them numerous
times,” Glanville said. “We were
in position to make the tackles but
we didn’t make them.
The Oiler defense couldn’t
keep quarterback Bubby Brister
from driving the Steelers for the
“They made the big plays all
day. They made us miss so give
them some credit.”
Brister completed three touch
down passes, including two to
Louis Lipps for 80 and 65 yards
and the game-winner to Merril
Hoge for 16 yards.
Dwight Stone returned an
Oiler kickoff 92 yards for the first
kickoff touchdown return against
the Oilers since 1973.
“I don’t think we’ve given up
that many big plays since New
York,” Glanville said, referring to
a 45-3 loss to the Jets Sept. 18.
“Ordinarily, we’re a good tack
ling football team,” Glanville said.
“We’ll just have to go back and
emphasize that this week.”
Moon ran for touchdowns of 2
and 3 yards and completed a 6-
yard touchdown pass to Mike Ro-
zier.
The Oilers, who struggled to
beat Dallas 25-17 on Thanksgiv
ing Day, started the game fiat.
Houston trailed 17-13 at the
half and fell behind 24-13 in the
third quarter.
The offense recovered in the
second half but the defense
didn’t.
“Pittsburgh is trying to salvage
their season and I preached that
all week,” Moon said. “This team
(Oilers) is not to the pointwecan
play a bad game and win.”
T he Oilers dropped to9-5foi
Sunday’s AFG Central Division
game against Cincinnati, 11-3, in

Houston’s final regular-season
game is Dec. 18 at division rival

Willie Drewrey became the sec

Hard-luck Cowboys remain in contention for top draft pick
IRVING (AP) — The Dallas
Cowboys will have a tough time
beating the Green Bay Packers
out of the NFL’s No. 1 draft pick,
but they’re looking solid gold for
the second selection.
The Cowboys, who have lost a
club-record 12 games, play at
Washington on Sunday then
must battle the Philadelphia Ea
gles in Texas Stadium on Dec. 18
with Coach Buddy Ryan’s bunch
in the NFC East playoff fight.
Green Bay matches Dallas’ 2-
12 record with two games left in
which the Packers will be big un
derdogs.
The Packers will play host to
Minnesota Sunday then travel to
Phoenix on Dec. 18.
If Dallas ties with Green Bay,
then the Packers get the No. 1
pick because of a weaker sched
ule.
With two games to go, Detroit
and Tampa Bay each have 4-10
records as the contenders for the
worst ledgers in the NFL.
Tampa Bay is at New England
and plays host to Detroit while
Detroit’s other game is at Chi
cago.
The Cowboys have said they
would take UCLA’s Troy Aikman
if he is available but they also
have a need for a Lawrence Tay
lor-type outside linebacker.
Aikman is rated the top quar
terback in the draft.
Derrick Thomas of Alabama or
Broderick Thomas of Nebraska
could make an immediate impact
on the Dallas defense.
Dallas lost its 10th consecutive
game on Sunday, falling 24-21 to
the Cleveland Browns.
The Cowboys slipped on a bad-
luck banana peef again, built
around a club-record 17 penalties
for 142 yards.
Dallas’ Roger Ruzek lost two
field goals that were negated by a
holding infraction and a tripping
infraction.
The last penalty, called against
veteran Randy White, erased a
field goal that would have tied the
score with 1:38 remaining.
“It was a place-kicker’s night
mare,” Ruzek said. “Two field
goals called back. Two of then
wiped out of the record books.”
Dallas Coach Toni Landry on
Monday wasn’t blaming the refer
ees for Dallas’ loss.
“We don’t seem to be getting
the breaks right now,” Landn
said. “That’s the kind of season
we are having. We are socloseyet
we do the wrong thing at the
wrong time.”
The Dallas players were a little
stronger, saying the team is being
picked upon because it’s out o(
the playoffs.

Notre Dame holds top spot;
Miami second in AP poll
Associated Press
Pitt and Penn State are the only
teams to have played both No. 1
Notre Dame and No. 3 West Vir
ginia this year, but their coaches are
loathe to pick a winner in a Fiesta
Bowl game that is being billed for
the national championship.
“It’s tough to do that,” said Pitt’s
Mike Gottfried, whose team lost to
Notre Dame 30-20 and to West Vir
ginia 31-10.
“They’re both good in every area
and I can only say good things about
both teams.”
Penn State lost to Notre Dame 21-
3 and to West Virginia 51-30 and,
when Coach Joe Paterno was asked
to compare them, he replied: “I
don’t think that’s fair to either team.
They’re both fine football teams that
have everything.”
Everything but a 1-2 shootout in
the Fiesta Bowl.
Notre Dame and West Virginia
are the nation’s only unbeaten col
lege football teams but Miami’s de
fending national champions own the
No. 2 ranking in The Associated
Press’ final regular-season poll, re
leased Monday.
Notre Dame received 49 of 53
first-place votes and 1,055 of a possi
ble 1,060 points from a nationwide
panel of sports writers and sports-
casters. There were no changes in
the top seven places.
Miami, a 41-17 winner over Brig
ham Young, received one first-place
vote and 994 points, while the other
three first-place votes went to West
Virginia, which totaled 950 points.
Fourth-ranked Florida State re
ceived 900 points, and was followed
by Southern California with 839,
Nebraska with 775 and Auburn with
767.

Arkansas and UCLA, which

place to eighth while UCLA slipped

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — After
years of playing like a punch-drunk
fighter in a league of heavyweights,
Connecticut’s basketball team awoke
Monday to find it had gained new
respect.
The Huskies, with victories in
their first two games, were ranked
No. 18 in The Associated Press poll.
“I’m happy to be in the polls,”
Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun said
Monday.
Meanwhile, Duke and Michigan
continued to top the poll.
Duke, 4-0, received the same
number of first-place votes as last
week, 47, from a nationwide panel
of sportswriters and broadcasters.
Michigan, 5-0, held second place,

Sanders gets hero’s welcome, shuns attention
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) —
Heisman Trophy winner Barry
Sanders received a hero’s welcome
Monday upon his return to Okla
homa State and, as usual, tried to de
flect the spotlight.
“On behalf of my teammates, I
want to thank you guys for coming
out here today,” Sanders told a
crowd of about 1,000. “We have one
more favor to ask. We want to get
these seniors 10 wins. With your
support, I’m sure we can pull out a
victory.”
The Cowboys, 9-2 after a 45-42
victory over Texas Tech at Tokyo on
Sunday, play Wyoming in the Holi
day Bowl at San Diego on Dec. 30.
The welcome back celebration was
short as university officials, Coach
Pat Jones and Sanders addressed the
crowd for about five minutes soon
after the team returned to the cam
pus.
Before the arrival of the team by
bus from Dallas, a disc jockey played
music for the crowd — some of
whom wore the school colors of
orange and black.
One person wore a T-shirt bear
ing Sanders’ name and “Let The Re
cords Speak For Themselves,” a ref
erence to the records Sanders has
broken this year.
Jones thanked those on hand for
their support throughout the season
and introduced team captains David
Bailey, Garrett Limbrick, Hart Lee
Dykes, Chris Stanley and Mike
Gundy. Sanders was the last to be in
troduced.
Several players stood in front of
and alongside the stage — a flatbed
trailer on the practice field —- as
Sanders addressed the crowd.
Sanders was on the first of two
buses to arrive on campus. The play
ers were met with loud applause as
they started gelling off the buses.
