Ra Rallies For First Win

Egypt clawed their way back from a 14 point deficit to win their first game 45-42. With Moses getting hammered by a relentless New Zealand pass rush, the Ra turned to their little used reserve running backs Khnum and Imhotep. The duo responded in a huge way, with Khnum running for 171 yards on 9 carries and scoring 3 touchdowns and Imhotep adding 73 yards and a score.

The Zombies took a 28 - 14 lead going into the half with scores by James Lofton, Bob Hayes and Curtis Martin on Dan Fouts/Bart Star passes and a 35 yard TD run by the bus, Jerome Bettis. Rameses ran for 108 yards and a score to help tie the game at 42 all late in the 4th quarter. Sphinx’s 61 yard field goal as time expired gave the Egyptians their first win. Star/Fouts combined for 10-17-0 passing for 295 yards and 5 touchdowns. Piy led the Ra defense with 6 ½ tackles while Deacon Jones had 4 tackles and 2 sacks for the Zombies.
