No notes for this game.
Tagged as the Cougars' Centennial football game, the contest had the usual heroics the homecoming fans had hoped for...again, the Cougars had to score three touchdowns in the second half to take the lead...Nielsen completed 14 of 19 for 229 yards...his targets were receivers John VanDerWouden (5 for 109 yards) and Jeff Nilsson (7 for 95 yards, one TD)...AFA's Dave Lawson had shot at NCAA field goal record (career) but missed on two close-in attempts. Prior to the game the Falcons had nationally ranked pass defense (64.7 yards per game)...full house of 30,246 fans in attendance on perfect afternoon.
