The Bulldogs took a l6-14 lead into halftime and preserved- it through a scoreless third quarter, but allowed three touch- downs in the final twelve minutes as a result of several bad breaks. Jerry Wright's 64-yard run to the Dons' T2 in the first quarter paved the way for the first Bulldog score. Joe Don Ford carried the ball in from the three-yard line, and took a pass from Tom Sawyer for the extra points. Ford again scored in the second quarter on a 12-yard pass from Sawyer, and ran his point total for the night to 16 with the conversion. The loss dropped the 'Dogs' record to l-4 for the season.
