Alabama took a 6–0 lead on a pair of Peter Kim field goals in the first quarter.[1] Baylor responded later in the quarter with its only points of the game when Tommy Tabor sacked Alabama quarterback Walter Lewis in the endzone for a safety to bring the score to 6–2.[2] The Crimson Tide extended their lead to 13–2 at the half following a one-yard Major Ogilvie touchdown run in the second quarter.[1] After scoring on a third Kim field goal in the third, Alabama closed out the game with a pair of fourth quarter touchdowns.[1] Don Jacobs scored first on a one-yard run and Mark Nix scored on a three-yard run to make the final score 30–2.[1] For his performance, Alabama linebacker Warren Lyles was named the MVP of the contest.[3] This game was the final collegiate game for legendary Baylor (and future college and pro football hall of famer) linebacker Mike Singletary.
