Forty two of the points were made by substitute team in the second half. South Carolina had no runner who could accomplish ANYTHING against tho systematic defence and sharp tackiing OF the Midshipmen, nor any plays good for substantial gains. The only first down they made was when a player who had been tackled tossed the ball, while lyins on his back. 70 another, and the Mldshpmen we’re surprised. a ten yard gain was made on forward pass but Il followed n play which had resulted IN loss and did not bring about a first down.
