The New Jersey Generals trotted out their big gun but it was a seldom-used weapon that led them past the Jacksonville Bulls.
Herschel Walker scored two short touchdowns and quarterback Gene Bradley ran for another to lead New Jersey. But the Generals' 28-26 victory, was clinched only when Jacksonville's Danny Miller missed a 42-yard field goal attempt with 40 seconds left.
The game drew a USFL record crowd of 73,227 at the Gator Bowl in Jacksonville, Fla., breaking the previous record of 62,300 set last week at the.Generals' game in Birmingham.
Bradley, filling in for injured Brian Sipe, passed for 140 yards and ran a 5-yard bootleg for the TD that gave the Generals a 28-19 lead with 2:16 remaining. The score came four plays after New Jersey intercepted a Matt Robinson pass.
Bradley replaced Sipe, who was unable to play after undergoing arthroscopic surgery to remove torn cartilage from his right knee Thursday.
The Bulls, 1-1, drew to 28-26 when Robinson capped an eight-play drive with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Gary Clark with 1:45 left. Jacksonville recovered the ensuing on-side kick at the 50 but Miller was just wide right with a field goal attempt that would have won the game.
