Spurrier‘s a\ erage margin of \ icti»

l'K ne\ er stood a chance to beat

lt‘s‘ inst like completely winging a

test. It you base 15 multiple choice
questions. chances are. you‘re going to
get one answer right. Jiist one.

And of those l5. this was by tar
l'K‘s best chance at a win.

“We definitely knew we could
compete with them and pessibl) come
away with the win." Woodson said

Spurrier has always been known
for throwing the ball around the field
But to do that. you must hay e a good
quarterback.

Spurrier has a border]inerdecent
quarterback in redshirt freshman (‘hi‘is

beat the (arts

because he was so clueless. After the

Spiii‘rier won this game with a de
tense that forced l'K to three field
goals. And with a pass rush that hur-
ried Woodson the entire night And
with a run defense that forced tumbles
by (’ats' backs Tony [Mum and Rafael
Little.

Not only did the (‘ats lose the
chalice of beating Spurricr for the first
time. but they lost out on seyeral other
opportunities

With a win. the (tits would have
mos ed to (s ti tor the first time since
NS“. the year of their only outright
Southeastern (‘onterence champi-
onship.

They also missed out on the oppor-
tunity to take complete control of the
SEC liast. A win would have kept
them undefeated in the league. some-
thing no other team in the division

could haye said.

"It's extremely disappointing to be
tn :1 position to go to 3—0 tn the league
and now w e‘i'e lAl and w e‘re clearly
way back in the pack.” head coach
Rich Brooks said.

Spurrier didn‘t do this alone.

Woodson came back down to
earth. He had two fumbles. both rer
tunied for scores by Eric Norwood. he
had a red lone interception. and he
threw ofl his back foot several times
throughout the night. He wasn't alone;
the offense tumed it o\ er four times.

"You can‘t do that to any team and
e\Ps‘ct to win. offensiye coordinator
Joker Phillips said

And you can‘t expect to break any
more streaks.

due to their early season start and the upper-
classmen leadership. Howei er. she feels the
need to step—up.

"We |ust need to come out w ith our cort-

lidence, and | just need to finish." Nmikoff

said. "The upperclassmen have JUst been
great and are always there if we need them.
which is big for the team."

Sophomore defender Julie Hall said all
team members share the blame for the los-
ing streak.

"We just have to remember any team
faces hardships and hard losses. which is
never easy Hall said. “But you work
through it and put it behind you and learn
from it."

The players said head coach Warren
Lipka wanted the team to have a light-heart»
ed practice to get their minds off the two
losses. The three players agreed that the
practice helped keep the mindset poslli\'c.

“We tried to come to practice and relax

and not dwell on the loss." Hull said.

“Coach told us to be disappointed bill to
those on because we base nine other SEC
games we have to work on."

Nosikoff is confident heading into the
Florida game that UK will regain its early
form for Sunday‘s game.

“We just need to go down (to Florida) as
a team and unit and play as hard as we can."
NovikofT said. “If we play like we can hopev
fully we‘ll come out with two wins."

pressure from defensive end Casper
Brinkley. tried to fire a backwards
pass to UK fullback John Conner.
The ball fell short of Conner. and be-
cause the pass was backwards. it was
ruled a fumble.

Norw'ood picked up the fumble
and took the turnover 53 yards for a
score. putting the Gamecocks up 24-
lit. The sophomore‘s touchdown tied
an NCAA record for most fumble re-
cos cries returned for touchdown in
one game.

“Some of tthe tumoyerst were just
uncharacteristic of how we play.‘ said
UK head coach Rich Brooks.

The fumble was Woodson‘s third
miscue of the game. While the senior
completed 23-of-40 passes for 227
yards and two touchdowns. he lost two
fumbles and threw his second intercep~
tion in two games.

“It‘s pretty disappointing. because
we definitely felt we could compete in
this game and come aw a) with a w in
Woodson said. “But turnovers do a lot
of damage in the game.

Woodson. who appeared to be rat—
tled after seyeral big hits from the
Gamecocks. was under pressure the cri-
tire night from the L'SC defensive line.
The Gamecocks tallied three sacks on
Woodson.

“We‘ve got to do a better Job of
protection said offensive coordinator
Joker Phillips. "That was another one
of our goals. to protect the football.
When we say protect the football. we
say protect the football and protect the
quarterback."

After Norwood's second touch-
down Lones Seiber added two field
goals to cut the deficit to 34-”). but a
7-yard touchdown pass by USC quar-
terback Chris Smelley to Patrick Di-
Marco put the Gamecocks up 3146
with 11:01 left.

UK cut the deficit to eight when
Woodstm found Steve Johnson for a 6-
yard touchdown pass with just under
sesen minutes to play. but the Game»
cocks made sure that would be as close
as the Cats would get.

On the ensuing dris'e. Smelley hit
tailback Cory Boyd for a 37-yard
touchdown pass out of the backfield to
end the Cats' comeback hopes and put
them on the losing side of the score-
board for the first time this year.

“In my mind. it was a typical SEC-

football game Brooks said. "The team
that made the most mistakes ends up
losing. and that was unfortunately us
tonight.

“We'se got to roll up our slecws
and go back to work. We got to remem-
ber what we did to get to this point. l
still beliese we‘re a \cry. \cr_\ good
football learn. but we just made w as
too many mistakes tonight to get a
win." '
