Description
Week 5 - Thursday, March 21, 1985
Attendance: 31,883
TV: ESPN
Five yards and a cloud of dust. That's what Jacksonville running back Mike Rozier did on his average run as the Bulls slipped by the win less Orlando Renegades 34- 31 in overtime.
Rozier, who ran for three touchdowns and scored another on a 5- yard pass reception, also broke the Bulls' single-game touchdown record of two.
The Bulls acquired Rozier, the 1983 Heisman Trophy winner while at Nebraska, during the year from the then defunct Pittsburgh Maulers.
Another hero of the game was kicker Brian Franco, who drilled a 29-yard field goal with 9:17 gone in overtime to give the Bulls their second victory in five games this season.
Reggie Collier, in his first start at quarterback for Orlando, also ran for four touchdowns, including a 36-yard romp for a score early in the fourth quarter. Collier rushed 18 times for 171 yards and was 14 of 27 passing for 187 yards. Collier's 15-yard romp with 55 seconds remaining in the game tied it at 31-31, setting up the overtime.
