Time runs out for Notre Dame SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Lou Holtz firmly defends his play calling in last weekend’s 17-17 tie with Michigan, but not a mental lapse that cost Notre Dame pre cious seconds of playing time. With the Irish holding the ball and an unexpected last chance, Holtz forgot a rule change that starts the clock after a penalty. Fifteen seconds drained away while the coach and Rick Mirer talked tactics on the sideline. After the quarterback dashed onto the field and tossed a sideline pass out of bounds to Lake Dawson, only seven seconds remained. It was too little time, too deep into Notre Dame territory. “I’m going to take the blame on this,” Holtz said Tuesday. Fans and pundits have plenty to offer. The game Saturday ended in a 17-17 tie, the most notorious for the Irish since 1966 when No. 1 Notre Dame and No. 2 Michigan State tied 10-10. The unnoticed ticking clock and conservative play calling spawned criticism that showed little sign of abating at midweek. it “I know they changed the rule two years ago,” Holtz admits. “I know that today. I knew that Satur day before the game. But I cannot tell you why I did not know the clock was running.” He tried anyway. Michigan had pushed deep into Notre Dame territory with little more than a minute left. Holtz ex pected to lose by a touchdown or at least a field goal. Then Elvis Grbac threw an in terception, Jeff Burris grabbed the ball at the Notre Dame 14, and with 1:05 remaining, the Irish had a chance to win. Holtz immediately identified a problem. Both punt snappers were injured and a substitute had liter ally rolled the ball across the grass to the punter. The coach saw a nightmare vision of three failed passes and a punt from near his own goal line. “There was no way we were going to punt the football,” Holtz said. So Jerome Bettis ran seven yards and, with 35 seconds left, Reggie Brooks ran for short yardage. But a procedure penalty brought the ball back. Holtz’s mind slipped the tracks. “I expected the clock to be stopped for a first down, then you go from there,” he said. “The penalty is where I drew a blank,” he said, expecting the clock to stop, then start with the snap. Holtzenvisionedadifferent end ing, one that might have muffled the critics if it had not brought the Irish a victory. “If we don’t get the penalty, and Lake’s inbounds, and we throw it and catch it, then we’re first-and 10 with 25 seconds to go on their 40 with one timeout,” he said. It has worked out that way be fore. Holtz says his Irish teams have been behind “10 times or more” in the final minute. “We’ve had the ball deep in our territory and I cannot recall a time when we did not have a chance to win that game with a field goal or a legitimate chance to catch a pass in the end zone,” he said. NFL quarterbacks shuffle spots as injuries abound By the Associated Press The NFL quarterback shuffle is in full swing, with six opening-day start ers sidelined for the third week of the season. At Cleveland, Bemie Kosar’s out with a broken ankle and Todd Philcox is in. And so is MikeTomczak, signed Wednesday by the Browns as the backup’s backup. The Los Angeles Raiders simply benched a healthy but ineffective Jay Schrocder in favor of Todd Marinovich. And at Indianapolis, nobody knows who’s going to start Sunday night against the Buffalo Bills. It could be Jeff George, Jack Trudeau or Tom Tupa, or even Mark Herrmann, who started the Colls’ opener but was cut the next day and might be signed again by general manager Jim Irsay. Entering this weekend’s games, three season-opening starters are out with injuries, two more have been benched and Herrmann was cut. The injured threesome is Kosar (out six weeks), the New York Jets’ Browning Nagle (finger) and the Phoenix Cardi nals’ Timm Roscnbach (shoulder). Jack Trudeau, who started the Colts* second game, has an injured back. The new backups this week are Schroeder and San Diego Chargers’ Bob Gagl iano, who actually became a second-stringer two weeks ago. Nagle is expected to be replaced by Ken O’Brien, who was the Jets’ starter since 1985, and ChrisChandlcr fills in for the Cardinals. In one Sunday matchup of reserves, it’ll be Philcox’s Browrts (0-2) at Marinovich’s Raiders (0-2). Philcox played in four games last season and was 20 of 49 for 317 yards with two touchdowns and two inter ceptions in the prescason. Marinovich started two games at the end of his rookie season for the Raiders, winning one before throw ing four interceptions in a playoff loss to Kansas City. Schrocdcr wasn’t so bad last week in a 24-21 overtime loss to the Cincin nati Bcngals. He threw for 380 yards, but was just 7 of 24 with two intercep tions and two lost fumbles in a 17-13 opening game loss to Denver. TheColts situation remains a mys tery. George, the real starter, has yet to play because of a jammed thumb. He and Trudeau, injured last week, threw to each other during practice Wednesday, but no deci sion was made on cither’s availability. The Jets have all but ruled out Nagle for Sunday’s game against San Francisco. “1 definitely think Kenny will start,’’ Jets general manager Dick Steinberg said. Rockies ’ manager delays hiring manager until after World Series DENVER (AP) — With the Nov. 17 expansion draft just two months away, Colorado Rockies general man ager Bob Gebhard has pushed back his deadline for hiring a manager until after the World Series. He said Tuesday he would finish his scouting of the 26 major league organizations in Pittsburgh this week, then will consider selecting a man ager. Earlier, Gebhard had said he hoped to have a manager on board by late September. “It probably isn’t as big an urgency as I felt it was a year ago,” Gebhard said. He said the delay should not be interpreted to mean he will hire a coach from one of the teams involved in postseason play. “It could just be because we’re running out of days,” he said. Gebhard planned to fly to Pitts burgh to watch the Pirates in a two game series against Montreal and a three-game weekend set against the Phillies. After returning to Denver next Sunday, Gebhard will analyze his re ports and then make some late-season trips to scout players he might have missed. “There might be some players who were on the disabled list or hadn’t been called up when I saw their teams and our people tell me I should take a look,” Gebhard said. While he is in Pittsburgh, the rest of the Rockies’ attention will focus on Arizona, where Rockies players were to report to the Instructional League on Tuesday. The Rockies are sharing a team in that league with San Diego.
