Brennan-'All The Credit To My Boys'
Notre Dame Duplicates 1953 Feat
Notre Dame coach Terry Brennan praised the quarterbacking of Bob Williams Saturday in giving "all the credit to my boys" for Notre Dame's storybook 7-0 victory over Oklahoma's mighty Sooners.
The Fighting Irish from South Bend, Ind. turned the clock back four years in winning Saturday, breaking an Oklahoma victory streak of 47 games.
Notre Dame is now the only team to have defeated Oklahoma in the past four years.
A record crowd of 62,000 and a nationwide television audience watched in awe and disbelief as Oklahoma was held scoreless by 3-touchdown underdog Notre Dame, breaking another streak of 123 straight games in which the Sooners have scored.
TD Stuns the Nation
Notre Dame's winning touchdown and the one which stunned an entire nation came with 3:50 left in the final period after an arduous 20-play march. On the 3-yard line Irish quarterback Bob Williams pitched back to Dick Lynch, right half, who swept around Oklahoma's right flank untouched. Monty Stickles kicked the extra point.
Brennan, in praising Williams said the 190-pound junior understudy to Paul Hornung last year was in complete charge during the march that sent the longest scoring streak in college football crashing down.
"He called all 20 plays in the series and I think it was great."
"Williams was on his own," the youthful Irish coach said.
After the curtain came down on Oklahoma's 47-game streak, a misty-eyed Bud Wilkinson summed up the disappointment by saying, "We played as well as we could. Notre Dame played better and deserved to win."
Wilkinson told his team in a melancholy gathering in the Sooner dressing room, "You played a good game and I'm proud of all of you. We could not go on winning forever."
Sooner Pass Defense Weak
There was a severe shock in the statistics. Oklahoma's powerful ground machine was held to 98 yards while the Sooners could only pass for 47.
Sooner Pass Defense Weak The Irish found the Oklahoma pass defense weak with Williams completing eight of 19 passes for a total of 79 yards.

The loss for Oklahoma came exactly one week and one day after university president George Cross had said it would be a good thing if the team would lose a game and the Irish did him the favor.
To the average Oklahoma it appeared the turning point came in the first play of the second period when an Oklahoma drive was halted by a fumble—the one Pietrosante recovered on the 49.
The outcome was a stunning blow to Oklahomaans, who were celebrating the state's 50th anniversary of statehood Saturday and had come to the game confident.
KU Soccer Team Stays Undefeated
The KU soccer team, to date undefeated, gained a 4-2 victory over a Mexican team from Kansas City, Mo., Sunday. The game was played for the most part in a cold and drizzling rain which sent spectators to their cars.
The KU team's record so far stands at four victories, against Col-Col
Uribe scored again early in the second half, making the score 2-0.
KU's Luis Uribe made the only goal in the first half on a pass from Jeno Nagy about 12 minutes after the game started.
Sixteen minutes after the beginning of the second half, Glenn Swengross made a goal for KU, and the next two goals were by another KU man, Mario Vargas, bringing the score to 4-0.
The Mexican team made two consecutive goals, the second with 10 minutes remaining to be played. The PU team scored on four shots.
Approximately 1,000 men on 60-75 teams compete in intramural touch football each year at KU.
