TEMPE -- A slow-starting offense aided by a spunky defense lifted OSU to a 16-6 verdict over Brigham Young, champs of the WAC.
State didn't get a first down in the opening quarter as the Cougars posted a pair of field goals. Mid-way in the second period Charlie Weatherbie pitched to Kenny Walker, who scored from 12 yards out. OSU made three deep drives in the third period but settled for a single field goal, a 42-yarder by Abby Daigle.
After subduing a fourth-quarter Cougar drive at the OSU 28, the Pokes wedged their way past midfield in a time-consuming drive. Leonard Thompson then lofted the halfback pass to split end Gerald Bain for 40 yards and the clinching score.
State's Phillip Dokes decked Cougar quarterback Gary Shiede late in the first period with a jarring tackle which dampened BYU hopes but understudy Mark Giles almost bailed the Cougars out of trouble with his fourth-quarter efforts. Dokes picked up the outstanding defensive player trophy and Walker was chosen top offensive player as OSU dominated play in the second half.
