Описание: 1984 Quarterfinals - Sunday, July 1, 1984
Attendance: 32,000,
TV: ABC

Rollie Dotsch may have set a precedent of sorts by giving his Birmingham Stallions a day off to cool off before meeting the Tampa Bay Bandits in the United States Football League playoffs.

Joe Cribbs, the league's leading rusher, gained 112 yards, Danny Miller kicked five field goals and the Birmingham defense set up two touchdowns to advance to the conference final in Philadelphia.

Miller booted field goals of 42, 49,35,42 and 32 yards.

Cnbbs, with 1,467 yards in the regular season, scored on a 3 yard run in the third period to give the Stallions a 27-11 lead.

Cnbbs also caught three passes for 55 yards. One was a 29-yarder to the Tampa Bay 1 in the first period to set up the first of two short scoring runs by quarterback Cliff Stoudt.

An interception by Chuck Clanton and a fumble recovery by Buddy Aydelette put Birmingham in position for two of its touchdowns.
