| Four hours prior to the start of this grid contest, Philadelphia's Phillies got a home run in a losing effort to Chicago's Cubs, but the city of brotherly love received two more home runs when Temple's football team scored second quarter touchdowns off an 82-yard kickoff return and a 52-yard pass. But a city-wide newspaper strike didn't afford any headlines.
The Owls appeared to have the Cougars on the ropes several times, but missed three field goals. BYU had it's own kicking problems with a missed extra point and a missed field goal, but punter Kevin Towle bailed out the Cougars seven times. Penalties, too, dogged BYU and cost BYU at least one touchdown. Among the keys to BYU's winning was a fourth quarter interception by linebacker Ladd Akeo to give the Cougars possession 28 yards away from the goal. The next BYU play after that interception proved to be a costly one-receiver Glen Kozlowski carried a reverse handoff for three yards, but injured his left knee as he was tackled on the Astro-Turf and was lost for several games during the season. Robbie Bosco also bruised his shoulder, an injury which plagued him for several games to come. Tom Tuipulotu rushed three times on that drive and receiver Mark Bellini caught his third TD of the evening. BYU now 3-1 and ranked 12th in UPI and 14th in AP. Source:1986 BYU media guide |
