...with Roberson and Jackson doing most of the running, Roberson up the middle, and Jackson on the outside, the Big Red quickly got that touchdown back. The big play in this march was a 22-yard run by Jackson to the four-yard line after taking a pitchout from DeGraaf. The 6'-2" quarterback scored his third touchdown on the next play, and again the kick was good...

That insurance touchdown took the spirit from the Crimson.

...line was gang-tackling with wicked exuberance; Penn State Star Lenny Moore could hardly get started. By the end of the first half, Army was in front, 21-0. Only for ten minutes in the third period did the Lions roar at all, and then they got only one touchdown. In the last quarter, Army all but pushed them off the field, scored twice more to finish the game in front, 35 to 6. His sad song over, Coach Blaik was already whistling up a new tune for this week's march into Michigan...

...Crimson, on the other hand, uses the fundamental single-wing attack with an overbalanced line. It will consistently pound away at the opponent's line, especially inside of the two tackles. Last year it was this wearing down of the Cornell line which gave the Crimson its winning touchdown...
