Limited information is thus far available on this game, the
first of two Thursday night games of the 1978 season.
Mark Fowler rushed for his highest total to date of 121
yards. Fred Brown tossed his fifth touchdown pass of
the year, and ran for his third and fourth touchdowns as
well. After giving up points in the final minute of
the previous game, the Trojans defense began a streak of
holding opposing teams off of the scoreboard for nearly 16
quarters.
