Founded as a private academy in 1857, Edinboro University has continued its surge to the forefront as one of the leading educational institutions in western Pennsylvania. Situated on a sprawling 585-acre campus in the scenic resort community of Edinboro, the University is within 100 miles of the educational and cultural canters of Buffalo, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh, it is just 15 miles south of Erie, the third largest city in Pennsylvania, and easily accessible from all directions by interstates 79, 80 and 90. Edinboro has the distinction of being the second normal school established in Pennsylvania and the 12th in the United States. It has grown to more than forty buildings including the 350,000-volume Baron-Forness Library, a modern seven-story structure which serves as a focal point for the spacious campus. More than 5,800 students representing almost every county in the Commonwealth, as well as numerous states and foreign countries attend Edinboro. Its tradition of educational service and research is matched by a distinguished faculty, more than two-thirds of whom have earned doctoral degrees. The University now offers more than 100 under­ graduate, graduate, and associate degree programs, a diversity unmatched by any other college or university in northwestern Pennsylvania. While seeking to meet the educational needs of its region from both a professional and cultural standpoint, Edinboro now mcltes contributions in the fields of education, government, environmental improvement, urban and rural problems, crime prevention, and service to business and industry. Recent program developments include those in the high-demand areas of allied health, business administration, communication, computer technology, nursing, and various pre-profes­ sional offerings such as law, dentistry, medicine, pharmacy and veterinary science. Numerous student internships provide additional examples of the University's efforts to create a close working relationship with the people it serves while, at the same time, offering students intel­ lectual and career opportunities. Edinboro has initiated the University Honors Program to provide challenging and enriched learning experiences for academically gifted students. Undergraduate students are encouraged to strive for academic excellence both in their major fields and in other disciplines. Honors students pursue studies that are greater in depth and scope than those required of other undergraduates. Although the costs for attending Edinboro rank among the lowest in the Commonwealth, over $8,000,000 in financial aid is available annually to eligible students. Students are admitted to the University in September, January, or at the beginning of each summer session and are considered for admission on the basis of their general scholarship, nature of secondary program, and SAT or ACT scores. WEST VIRGINIANS CHALLENGE SCOT VETS .. ^ '■''^ A Conmi run '"r I '5 6 a.m.-2 a.m. Corner 6-N & Ontario St. phone 734-5271 ill .f¥l^ m Xnahv^ry? ^op fy-qo/ck seri/ke yrth3-5»ti/e ^ ^ Coach Denny Creehan's band of Fighting Scots battle for the first time under the banner of Edinboro University today as his veteran grid squad kicks off 1983 action against invading West Liberty College. The season opening tilt features a Hilltopper team that hails from a traditionally tough football program and should be a formidable test for the talented Scots. Edinboro, likewise, shows an experienced lineup with 60 vets on hand from last year's 9-2 club which was at one time ranked eighth in the country and won the PSAC Western Division crown. Enroute to the University's second best grid season in history, the Scots set 13 school records while tying eight others. West Liberty coach, Larry Shank, is optimistic about his second season at the Hilltoppers helm. "We can have a good year this fall," projected the West Virginia mentor. "Just how good will depend on how quickly our young people can fill the vacancies," he added. Senior quarterback Tom Thomas, a co-captain and last year's offensive MVP, is back to direct the West Liberty attack. The option-style signal caller also has All-American split end Lance LaFollette (63,175) who is augmented by tight end Bryan Sterns (6-3, 195). West Liberty's major strength comes at the linebacker posts where Rick Brothers (5-10, 220), Mike Martin (6-2, 225), Mike Mezarik (6-3, 200), and Steve Remenaric (5-11, 210) operate. Brothers led the conference last year with 91 solo tackles. Anchoring the front line of Hilltoppers are tackles Bob Bridge (6-4, 227) and Jim Prazza (6-4, 230) along with nose guard Rick Camilletti (5-10, 218). Edinboro has 18 of 22 starters returning to their positions with all four losses coming from an offen­ sive line that paved the way for a wing-T offense that averaged 26 points per game and netted over 4,(XX) yards. While the Scots had one of their largest offensive lines in years last fall with a 235-pound average, this year's forward wail scales out at a whopping 244pound mark. Spearheading the way are tackles Rick Rosenberg (6-4, 250) and Jim Ritt (6-5, 250), center Buddy Carroll (6-2, 230), and guards Dom Grande (6-0, 250) and Scott Weinhold (6-4, 240). Junior quarterback Blair Hrovat, who broke seven school passing records last year, is once again at the helm. Behind his leadership the Scots averaged an impressive 372 yards per game and have gone 12-2 under his direction. He is joined in the backfield by fullback Keith Collier (343 yards), speedy halfback Damon Chambers (214 yards), and halfback Ron Rankin who kept opposing defenses honest with his 11 catches out of the backfield for 325 yards. Also expected to see much time in the backfield are their replacements, Ray Rhodes, Scott Rittenhouse and Bob Klenk. A defense that limited opponents to just 10 points per game appears ready to be challenged once again. Seniors Bob Beauregard (6-2, 225) and Phil Giavasis (6-0, 214) man the terminals with John O'Rorke (5-10, 220) at middle guard sandwiched by tackles Don Espy (6-3, 235) and Rick Jordan (6-2, 225). Hard hitting Jim Durkin (5-11, 225) and fleetfooted Willie Chealy (5-11, 192) are the linebacker mainstays which may be the strength of the Scots defense. Durkin led the tackling assault last year with 105 hits while O'Rorke followed with 100 stops and Beauregard was right in step with 98. Back to patrol the secondary is free safety Dave Parker, who tied a season record with eight intercep­ tions. Also on tap are the Rose brothers, Greg and Keith, along with newcomer Ray Bracy who has edged out veteran Mike Emge for the starting cornerback slot. The last time West Liberty and Edinboro met was 36 years ago when the Scots scored a 26-0 shut-out. Their only other meeting was in 1926 when the Plaid again held the Hilltoppers scoreless in a 10-0 win. EDINBORO UNIVERSITY 1983 FOOTBALL CAPTAINS: (L-R Kneeling) Phil Giavasis and Keith Collier.

ALL ROADS LEAD TO THE BEST IN OFFENSE EDINBORO VALU-KING Located on Route 99 North in the Sunset Plaza * CRISP FRESH PRODUCE INSTORE BAKERY QUALITY DELI AND MEAT DEPARTMENTS ‘ by Herschei Nissenson, College Football Editor^ Associated Press ’W’ ohnny Majors was hacking his way ■ around a Dallas golf course in June fUr during the American Football Coaches Association’s annual tournament when someone spoiled his reverie by mentioning that offensive tackle Bill Fralic of Pitt just might be the best college football player in the nation. And since Pitt, the school Majors coached to a national championship in 1976, just happens to be Tennessee’s hrst opponent. Majors’ ears perked up. He grinned and said: "That's okay. I’m just glad the best football player in the na­ tion isn’t a quarterback or running back at Pitt.” That could be an accurate description of the national picture this fall. Last year's outstanding crop of quarterbacks (John Elway, Todd Blackledge, Jim Kelly, Tony Eason, Dan Marino) and runners (Her­ schei Walker, Eric Dickerson, Curt Warner, Kelvin Bryant, Michael Haddix, Oklahoma State's Ernest Anderson set a Bl\ Eight record in 1982 by rushing for 1,87\ yards. Tim Spencer, Craig James, Gary An­ derson) has been riddled by graduation and the United States Football League, leaving plenty of room for unheralded and, as yet, unpublicized performers to burst upon the scene with a bang. Offensive linemen do not rush for a hundred yards a game or pass for several hundred, but the runner or passer who can do those things without the guys in the pit hasn’t come along yet. So in round­ ing up this season’s potential stars on of­ fense, let’s forget about the "skill” people for a while and give some much-deserved publicity to the behemoths who do the dirty work. Fralic ismassiveat 6-5, 270—and hels only a junior. Two years ago, he became the first Pitt freshman to start his first col­ legiate game since Tony Dorsett in 1973. He stepped right into the position vacated continued It BEST IN OFFENSE continued Duke QB Ben Bennett topped the ACC in passing efficiency and totai offense in ’82. by Outland Trophy winner Mark May and was named first team All-America by the Associated Press in 1982. “Bill Fralic is simply a great, great foot­ ball player,” says Joe Moore, Pitt’s offen­ sive line coach. “As a freshman, his pass blocking was unbelievable. In his soph­ omore year, his pass blocking improved. As a freshman, his run blocking was out­ standing. His sophomore year, he im­ proved his run blocking. If he continues to make the same improvement, I feel he has a chance to become one of the greatest—if not the greatest—offensive lineman to play the college game.” Down South, LSU has a junior tackle named Lance Smith, who stands 6-2, 295, and draws the same kind of rave reviews as Fralic. “If there is a better offensive lineman in the country at this stage in his career, I haven’t seen him,” says Coach Jerry Stovall. “Lance is the complete of­ fensive tackle and he gets better every game.” Smith made nine "domination” blocks against Florida and was in the game for all 84 offensive plays against Alabama. Georgia has a pair of top-notch tackles in Jimmy Harper and Guy McIntyre, North Carolina is wild about 295-pound Brian Blados and Ohio State’s Bill Roberts is among the elite. Others to watch: Conrad Goode (Mis­ souri), Glen Howe (Southern Mississippi), Tom Jelesky (Purdue), Joe Milinichik (North Carolina State), John Robertson (East Carolina) and Lloyd Taylor (Long Beach State). Texas guard Doug Dawson, a 6-3, 255-pound senior, has started 26 straight 2t games beginning with the Bluebonnet Bowl his freshman year. An exceptional pass blocker, his average grade on the field was 92.4 percent. Off the field, he’s a good student in petroleum engineering. Nebraska’s headlines will go mostly to I-back Mike Rozier and quarterback Turner Gill, and deservedly so. But up front, the lone returnee from the Cornhuskers ’1982 Monsters of the Midlands is 6-4, 269-pound guard Dean Steinkuhler. He covers 40 yards in a startling 4.67 sec­ onds and he consistently got the highest rating among Nebraska’s linemen last year, wbo included two-time Outland winner Dave Rimington. Others to watch: Jim Boyle (Tulane), James Farr (Clemson), Stefan Humphries (Michigan), Kevin Igo (Oklahoma State), David Jordan (Auburn), Dave Kuresa (Utah State), Terry Long (East Carolina), Paul Parker (Oklahoma) and Jeff Zimmerman (Oregon). With Rimington hogging the spotlight among the nation’s centers for two years. Southern Cal’s Tony Slaton had to settle for All-West Coast as a sophomore and ju­ nior. He is now a 6-4, 255-pound senior and Coach Ted Tollner says Slaton “has the best quickness—both straight ahead and laterally—of any center I’ve ever seen.” Slaton’s competition for post-season honors should come from Tom Dixon (Michigan), Philip Ebinger (Duke), Tom McCormick (Florida State) and Chuck Thomas (Oklahoma). Now for the headline-hoggers, the folks who run with the ball, throw it and catch it. Some of them may not be household names just yet, but it probably won’t be BYU’s QB Steve Young tossed for 3,100 yards and 18 TDs in 1982. Fiorida’s Wayne Peace set an NCAA passing record last season. too long. ^ The Big Eight Conference has three of the best ballcarriers around in Nebraska’s Rozier, Ernest Anderson of Oklahoma State and Marcus Dupree of Oklahoma. Last fall, Rozier earned Big Eight Player of the Year honors by rushing for 1,689 yards—a single-season Nebraska record—and scoring 15 touchdowns. His per-game average of 140.8 yards was fourth nationally and heading into his fi­ nal year the 5-11, 210-pounder needed only 183 yards to become the Huskers’ ca­ reer rushing king. A fine receiver and kick returner, backfield coach Mike Corgan calls him “strong as a bull and quick as a cobra.” What do Marcus Allen, Tony Dorsett, Herschel Walker and Ed Marinaro have in common? They are the only runners in NCAA history to rush for more than the l,877yards that Ernest Anderson piled up last fall. That figure is the best in Big Eight history and the 5-10,190-pound Anderson tied the league mark with four 200-yard continued It all began in the Pacific Northwest. At the turn of the century, a pioneer family began weaving blankets, robes and shawls of excep' tional quality in Pendleton, Oregon. Many designs were inspired by the motifs of the nearby Nez Perce Indian Nation. It was an ideal place for such a beginning. Rich grasslands nurtured bands of sheep that grew wool of the highest quality. Soft, pure water was abundant for scouring and dyeing. And the family brought to the task a heritage of weaving which began generations be' fore in England. ; i -j i Through the years. Pendleton blankets and robes came to be considered a standard of value among settlers and Indians through' out the West. And so the legend of excellence began. The family then applied its skills to the creation of 100% virgin wool clothing fabrics. Fine, beautiful fab' rics which were then tailored into shirts that loggers, ram chers and sportsmen of the region could wear a lifetime. Each shirt was “war' ranted to be a Pendleton’,’ to assure the buyer that the company stood behind its products, in quality and workmanship. And the legend grew. Today, four generations later, the family is still mak' ing shirts warranted to be Pendletons, to the same standards our forefathers set those many years ago. We continue to use only pure, virgin wools, selected and graded by hand each shearing season. We design the patterns, dye the wool, spin the yam, weave the fabrics. And then, in over 60 careful steps, these pure vir' gin wool fabrics are cut and sewn into Pendleton Shirts. It is this commitment to quality and value in 100% virgin wool, this attention to detail every step, every stitch of the way, that makes a Pendleton Shirt different from every shirt in the world. It is the commitment we have always made to a Pen' dleton Shirt. And always will. The legend deserves no BEST IN OFFENSE DRIVE SAFELY AND YOU CAN DRIVE DOWN YOUR RATES WITH SAFECO. continued Photo by Bon Boss games and set an Oklahoma State record by rambling for 270yards against Kansas. Don’t let Anderson's size fool you—he owns the Big Eight record for a running back with a 390-pound bench press. Dupree, a 240-pounder, capped a sensa­ tional freshman year—his 905 regularseason yards made him the first rookie ever to lead Oklahoma in rushing, and he didn’t even become a starter until the Sooners junked the Wishbone in favor of the I-formation—with a Fiesta Bowl record 239 yards against Arizona State, the nation’s No. 1-rated defense. Dupree had a remarkable run of cross-country touchdown gallops in his last seven games, scoring at least once from 30 yards out in each contest and six times from more than 60yards. According to the tub-thumpers at Au­ burn, Bo Jackson "could be the most tal­ ented athlete in Southeastern Conference history.” Auburn’s first three-sport letterman in 30 years also plays baseball—he was the New York Yankees’ top draft pick in 1982—and runs track. As a freshman, the 222-pounder was Auburn’s leading rusher with 829 yards—a 6.5 average— and scored nine touchdowns, including the winner against Alabama. Auburn’s other Wishbone halfback. Boston College’s Doug Flutle threw for 2,739 yards last year. 4t Maryland’s Willie Joyner rushed for 1,039 yards in 1982. 166-pound Lionel “Little Train” James, rushed for 779yards on 113 carries—a 6.9 average—and led the nation in punt re­ turns with a 15.8-yard average on 24 re­ turns. And one that Auburn let get away after his freshman year, Sam Dejarnette of Southern Mississippi, finished fifth in the country on the 1982 rushing charts with 1,545yards. Also returning from last year’s leaders are Michael Gunter of Tulsa (1,464 yards and a nation-leading 7.5 per carry), Robert Lavette of Georgia Tech (1,208), Willie Joyner of Maryland (1,039) and John Kershner of Air Force (1,056). Others to watch: Greg Allen (Florida State), the nation’s leading scorer with 20 touchdowns; Vaughn Broadnax (Ohio State); Darryl Clack (Arizona State); Dal­ ton Hilliard and Garry James (LSU); Greg Bell and Allen Pinkett (Notre Dame); Vaughn Johnson (Arizona); Napoleon McCallum (Navy); Joe McIntosh (North Caro­ lina State); Ricky Moore (Alabama); Lor­ enzo Hampton and John L. Williams (Florida); Thomas Dendy (South Caro­ lina); Jacque Robinson (Washington) and Jon Williams (Penn State). what? No one from Southern Cal? With no super tailback on the scene and with the arrival of new coach Ted Tollner, an acknowledged genius when it comes to the passing game, the Trojans may put the ball in the air more than usual. But win­ ning is the name of the game and the winningest quarterback around doesnt have glamorous individual statistics. However, the Southern Methodist Mustangs have won two consecutive Southwest Confer­ ence championships and are 24-2-1 with Lance Mcllhenny at the controls. Mcllhenny is one of those quarterbacks who doesnt seem to do anything except beat you—what coaches like to call a "winner.” He was the top-rated signalcaller in the SWC last year, passing for 910 yards—dont forget he had Eric Dick­ erson and Craig James to hand off to— and 10 touchdowns, while throwing only three interceptions. If it’s great passing numbers you want, look elsewt»ere—to Wayne Peace (Flor­ ida); Ben,Bennett (Duke); Steve Young (Brigham Young). They ranked fourth, fifth and sixth nationally last season un­ der the NCAA’s complicated passing effi­ ciency formula. Peace set an NCAA record by completing 70.73 percent of his passes (174 of 246); Bennett topped the At­ lantic Coast Conference in total offense and passing efficiency, while Young, a di­ rect descendent of Brigham Young him­ self, threw for 3,100 yards and 18 touch­ downs and has some believers touting him as the best passer in BYU history, which is nothing to sneeze at. The most exciting quarterbacks could turn out to be Todd Dillon of Long Beach State and Doug Flutie of Boston College. Long Beach State led the major college ranks in passing a year ago and Dillon’s total offense figure of 3,587yards was the second best in NCAA history. Dillon com­ pleted 289 of 504 attempts (57 percent) for 3,517 yards and 19 touchdowns in his first season of major college competition continued At SAFECO, we think careful drivers deserve a break on auto insurance.

BEST IN OFFENSE continued and had seven games of better than 300 yards in total offense. To look at 5-10, 170-pound, baby-faced Doug Flutie, you probably wouldn't take him for Mr. Excitement. The computer science major is anything but a pro­ grammed quarterback and his talent for ad-libbing a potential loss into a long gain has driven more than one opponent up the wall. He passed for a whopping 520 yards against national champion Penn State last season, took B.C. the length of the field in the final 78 seconds to beat Rutgers and produced the tie-breaking score in the final minute against Syr­ acuse, all of which helped the Eagles to their first bowl trip in 40years. For his sophomore season, Flutie passed for 2,739 yards, a New England record, and Coach Jack Bicknell says: “Sometimes Doug gets a bit out of control. He does some things on his own, which has its pluses and minuses. But he is so unique and can do so many things. We don't want to turn him into a robot. He really goes into every game expecting good things to happen. I don't think he harbors any negative thoughts. It all boils down to the fact that he's a kid with tre­ mendous confidence in himself. It's infec­ tious. The offensive line is saying, ‘If we can just protect this little sonofagun ...’ And the receivers know that if they get open, he'll get them the ball.” Penn State’s Joe Paterno is a bit more dramatic. “That Doug Flutie goes boomboom-boom, and bingo! They have a touchdown.” Nebraska’s Turner Gill came back from a 1981 nerve injury in his leg that threat­ ened to end his career and led the Cornhuskers to a 12-1 record, a second straight Thomas Dendy, South Carolina running back, will be a runner to watch this season. Big Eight title and almost the national championship. Probably Nebraska’s best all-around quarterback. Gill completed 90 of 166 passes for 1,182 yards and 11 touchdowns, with just three inter­ ceptions, and rushed for 497 yards and four TDs. With Gill at the helm, the Huskers led the nation in total offense, rushing and scoring. Others to watch: David Archer (Iowa State); John Bond (Mississippi State); Scott Campbell (Purdue); Boomer Esiason (Maryland); Randall Cunningham (Nevada-Las Vegas); Jeff Hostetler (West Virginia); Walter Lewis (Alabama); Marty Louthan (Air Force); Jeff Nugent (Colo­ rado State); Gary Schofield (Wake Forest); Sandy Schwab (Northwestern); Frank Seurer (Kansas); Steve Smith (Michigan); Brad Taylor (Arkansas); Sean Salisbury (Southern Cal) and Mark McKay (San Diego State), who faces a strong chal­ lenge from a heralded redshirt freshman named Jim Plum. Brigham Young’s Gordon Hudson is in a rut. He has caught 67 passes in each of the last two seasons, tying the NCAA record for most receptions by a tight end. At 6-4, 230, there are not many defensive backs who can handle Hudson when he gets up a full head of steam. Hudson was the consensus All-America tight end a year ago, but a publicity storm is brewing on the West Coast for Califor­ nia’s David Lewis, who grabbed 54 passes for 715 yards last year. Others to watch: Cliff Benson (Purdue); Paul Bergmann (UCLA); Tony Camp (Pa­ cific); John Chesley (Oklahoma State); Glenn Dennison (Miami); John Frank (Ohio State); Jon Harvey (Northwestern); Dave Hestera (Colorado). California tight end David Lewis caught 54 passes for 715 yards In 1982. Dalton Hilliard, LSU tailback, should be among the nation’s leading rushers in 1983. Penn State has turned out numerous All-Americas over the years, but Kenny Jackson lastyear became the first Nittany Lion wide* receiver to win that honor. He caught 41 passes for 697 yards and seven touchdowns—the last two are school records—and his 18 career TD receptions is another Penn State mark. With Michi­ gan’s Anthony Carter having gone to the USFL, Jackson looms as the nation’s top wideout. But watch out for a player who sat out last season after transferring from Nevada-Las Vegas to San Diego State. In 1981, Jim Sandusky led the nation with 68 receptions for 1,346 yards and he could approach those numbers again with the pass-happy Aztecs. Others to watch this year: Cedric An­ derson (Ohio State); Jesse Bendross (Ala­ bama); Jeff Champine (Colorado State); Dwight Collins (Pitt); Dwayne Dixon (Flor­ ida); Irving Fryar (Nebraska); Robert Grif­ fin (Tulane); Duane Gunn (Indiana); Jessie Hester (Florida State); Gerald McNeil (Bay­ lor); Eric Richardson (San Jose State); Tim Ryan (Wake Forest) and Eric Wallace (Kansas State).

Yet for the fan who takes his football seriously, there is a revolutionary method for attaining a deep understanding of the college game—watch the players instead of the ball. "Most fans,” says the defensive coordinator of a Southeastern Conference bowl team from last season, "know just enough about football to enjoy the game. They read the Sunday morning paper to get an idea about what might have happened. "There are a few serious fans, though, who’ve impressed me with what they know. They want to understand the game, and that’s much harder. To really understand what your team’s doing, you’ve got to approach things just like a coach would. DON'T WATCH THE BALL continued “Chart down and distance. Chart ten­ dencies. Know where you’ve got a mis­ match and know how to take advantage of it. When a fan can start doing those things, he’ll know where the ball is going without having to look.’’ A few simple procedures, and a min­ imal financial investment, enable any fan to begin watching the game instead of the ball. First you gear up. Next you study what you’re seeing on offense. Finally, you study what you’re seeing on defense. It’s that simple. Let’s begin with the paraphernalia of game watching. To initiate your odyssey into the intri­ cacies of college football, send for the me­ dia guide of a college team you’ll see in person during the season. Address your request to the athletic department. You may want to follow up with a telephone call if you haven’t received your guide within todays. Media guides are given to writers and broadcasters as a ready reference source on all team-related facts and figures. Most schools make guides available to the gen­ eral public for prices well under $10. You may also want to send off for the Look for your team’s play patterns so you’ll know where the ball Is going. lot media guides of teams you’ll be watching on television, but remember that tele­ vised games have a major drawback; TV games always follow the ball, rather than players. Read the media guide of the team you’ll see in person. Read it from cover to cover. At least twice. Familiarize yourself with the styles of offense and defense your team uses. Lo­ cate the team’s depth chart and read up on which players you’ll most likely see at each position. Once you’ve done your homework you’re ready to gear up for the trip to the stadium. A must for in-stadium game watching is a good pair of binoculars, preferably a pair that provides a wide angle view of the field. In the old days, days when you followed the ball and didn’t have as much to look at or keep track of, binoculars may have been extra baggage. Now they’re a requi­ site. Bring along a legal sized pad and several pencils for note taking. Since it’s cum­ bersome to keep track of all this assorted gear, you may want to buy a tote bag. Many teams sell tote bags with the univer­ sity’s mascot printed on it. Come prepared to do all your own game work, but don’t discourage the interest of fans sitting near you. You may get lucky and find a friend who shares your inter­ est in learning more about football. You’re thinking like a coach now, so you’ll have to forego some of the camara­ derie that usually uncorks during a game. Save your partying for later, when you can impress everyone with your knowl­ edge of what really happened. The statistical goal in each game is to duplicate the work of the university’s own crews in the press box and the coaches’ box. After a game is over, you want everything down on paper for re­ view and analysis before the next game. A three-person stat team is ideal. One person charts down, distance and the play run by the offense. The second per­ son charts what formation the offense used and how much yardage the play gained. The third person charts what for­ mation the defense used, whether it blitzed and whether it tried to disguise its intent. If you don’t have any help, be prepared to get as much of the information as possi­ ble on your own. You’ll be surprised how. quickly a play-by-play chart takes shape. Now that you’re properly geared up and have lots of background information, you’re ready to start analyzing offense and defense. continued I- ctGP DON'T WATCH THE BALL continued To reach an understanding of the strat­ egy and tactics of major college football, forget many of the notions you’ve long held sacred. Forget about following the ball. You’re training yourself to know where the ball is going without having to look. Forget that the field is 100 yards long. Coaches see the field in five segments that dictate formations and tactics. The sections are: your team’s goal line to its 15-yard line; your team’s 15-yard line to its 30-yard line; your team’s 30-yard line to the opponent’s 30-yard line; the op­ ponent’s 30-yard line to its 10-yard line; and the opponent’s 10-yard line to its goal line. Analyze how your team acts and reacts in each of the five segments. Notice how the offense operates in the critical areas near its goal line. Look for changes when the team is at midfield. See whether the defense is being victimized in certain situ­ ations. Once you uncover a pattern to your team’s play, you’re plotting tendencies. All teams have tendencies; it’s just a matter of sorting them out. Looking for patterns instead of individ- ual plays helps you to think of your team’s offense and defense as if they were novels being written before your eyes. Each play is a chapter, linked to what has gone before it and what comes after. Very little happens by chance. Plays are not isolated moments, but threads woven into a larger tapestry of offense and de­ fense. During the first three to four weeks of the season, most teams are feeling them­ selves out. The early games are an in­ valuable time for compiling statistical in­ formation and discovering tendencies. Make it a point to notice the little things. They pay off. "Just the way players are lined up tells you something,’’ says a former line coach of a major southern independent, who in his playing days toiled for one of the Pac10 schools. "The story I always remember is about John Brodie. While Brodie was at Stan­ ford, someone noticed that every time he put his left foot forward he ran to the right. Every time his right foot was for­ ward he ran to the left. "The defensive coaches told their play­ ers that whenever they saw Brodie’s feet lined up a certain way they should auto­ matically blitz." This kind of detail is called a key. The defensive linemen keyed on Brodie’s feet and were able to improve their chances against the Stanford offense. Linemen are often the easiest players to key in college football because they’re in­ clined to cheat on their stances. For example, a defensive lineman who usually takes a four-point stance on run­ ning downs may shift to a three-point stance to allow him more mobility in rushing the passer. That’s a key for the offensive lineman. When the defender is in a three-point stance, he’s expecting a pass. Perhaps a well-timed running play on third and long would give the offensive lineman an ad­ vantage. A common key for defensive linemen is reading how players in the offensive front settle their weight before the snap of the ball. If a player’s weight is set back, he’s probably going to drop back to pass block or pull out of the line to lead a ballcarrier on a sweep. He’s not likely to fire out with continued Without Jensen speakers, you’re not all there.” rr Okay, you've got a Jensen" receiver.

C'Jensen Sound Laboratories. 1983 DOM'T WATCH THE BALL continued game and it works, you’ve really got them thinking.” Defenses have become as sophisticated as modern offenses. Many of the nation’s best collegiate de­ fenses go through several different align­ ments before settling into their final de­ fense. They try to disguise what defense they’re going to run. At best, this confuses the opponent’s quarterback. At worst, it gives the quar­ terback less time to read the defense and make a decision. Since the defense is usually reacting to an offensive maneuver, it’s a bit easier to follow a handful of players and know where the ball is headed. When studying a defense, never take your eyes off the inside linebacker at the snap of the ball. Inside linebackers usu­ ally key the defense, either by moving to the point of attack to support run defense or by breaking off into pass coverage. On pass plays, the two inside safeties will usually rotate to the side where the defense expects the ball to be thrown. As a pass play develops, abandon your binoculars and get a good view of all the routes being run. Chances are you’ll know where the ball is going to be thrown an aggressive block. If the offensive lineman’s weight is set far forward, he’s probably hoping to get an edge on a domination block. Linemen may tip a play by the position of their feet or their stance. Years ago, the prevailing logic was that the offensive guards always tip where the play is headed. The sophisicated college offenses of the ’80s have debunked the guard rule. Today, it might be a center plotting the course of the ball. Or a particular re­ ceiver. In some situations, player movement disguises the offense’s play. "Some college teams give you false keys,” says the offensive coordinator of a resurgent Big Ten team. “You might send half your linemen in the wrong direction just to make the de­ fense think you’re going one way instead of the other. You can pull the linemen away from where the ball’s going. They don’t even have to hit anybody, just make it look real. “Misdirection stuff is great once you get it going because a defense doesn’t know who to key on and how to react. If you misdirect them seven or eight times a by the way receivers are moving. The charge of the defensive line is also a key. If the defensive linemen are ag­ gressively attacking the offensive line, chances are they’re expecting a quarter­ back sack. If the defensive line is slow to charge, it’s probably hanging back to read the offense before committing itself. Also, pay attention to how long the de­ fense spends in its huddle. It takes more time to call adjustments to pass cov­ erages. Quick breakup of the huddle could mean a defense is expecting a run. As you can see, watching players in­ stead of pigskins is a complicated, but re­ warding, business. Concentration, organization and a com­ plete familiarity with your team’s strengths and weaknesses is essential. “Once you get to thinking like a coach,” says the defensive coordinator from the SEC team, “you start to enjoy the game so much more. “Following the ball becomes the last thing you do, not the first. Once you know football, about calling plays and making things happen, the only reason you ever look at the ball is to find out if you gained enough yardage for the first down.” || “7 practically live in Leejeans'cause Lee gives me the best fitting most comfortablejeans.

And, above all,be must be mistake-free. “He has to have tremendous judgment,” said one college coach, “and I mean tre­ mendous judgment. The decisions he makes are critical. At the position he’s lined up in on the field, you're giving up big plays if he makes a mistake in judg­ ment.” Free safety is as demanding as any posi­ tion on the football field. “He’s as important as any player on your defense,” a coach said. “It’s difficult to play good defense without a good free safety back there. If you’re trying to play H without a good one, I think you ’re starting out with a tremendous handicap.” The free safety is responsible for elimi­ nating any long plays by the offense, whether it’s a pass or a run. Most of to­ day’s defenses are structured around a three-deep zone pass defense. The free safety is responsible for the middle-third, but he must also lend support to the outside-thirds. And he is not exempt from run support. His primary run responsibilities are usu­ ally to the weak side, away from the tight end. But he must be keenly aware in case a runner breaks the line of scrimmage; usually, the free safety is the last man be­ tween the runner and a touchdown. He calls the defensive secondary align­ ment, and makes any changes in the cov­ erage immediately before the snap. Finding a player who can fill all the qualifications the position demands is of­ ten a difficult task for coaches. ‘We look for speed first, always,” a coach said. “But the thing we’re also look­ ing for is someone with some range, someone who can reach from boundary to boundary. He has to be able to help the cornerbacks on deep patterns, but still protect the middle. “We don’t want a guy who is going to be overly aggressive. We want a guy who will play deep middle. He’ll do his job first, continued I continued then help out on the corners. "You want an individual with enough speed so you only have to play him about 10 yards deep. If he doesn’t have good speed, you have to play him 14 yards deep, and give up yards on run support. "And the free safety has to have some brains, too. In what we’re doing, he has to be the smartest player on the football field. "The free safety has to have a real knowledge of the defensive system. He can do an awful lot as far as directing traf­ fic back there. He’s the guy who can make your defensive checks, make your adjust­ ments to motions and multiple sets. “And he’s got to be able to control the strong safety and cornerbacks. If one of them is lined up wrong, he’s got to try to get him lined up properly.” As a play begins, a free safety reads dif­ ferent offensive keys in different de­ fensive schemes. It might be the quarter­ back. It might be the flow of the backfield. It might be a receiver. One coach said, "In our defense, the free safety must anticipate the quarter­ back. That’s his read. He will also read the No. 2 receiver, or the receiver closest to him. Usually, that would be either a slot or a tight end. "That’s what he’s looking at: quarter- 20t back, receiver, back to the quarterback. After he sees where his receiver is going, then he really hones in on the quarter­ back.” Another coach with a different scheme said, "We don’t have the free safety key on any one thing because the sets have be­ come so multiple. He’s looking at the for­ mation, and he’ll get his reads or keys from a variety of things. But it’s all based on his ability to recognize the formation.” A free safety for one Southeastern Con­ ference team said, “I read the flow of the backs, and our zone rotates that way. If they flow strong, we rotate strong. If they flow weak, we roll weak. We read the backs first, then react from there.” His reactions must be sure and wellcalculated. A wrong move and his team is lining up for the opposing team’s extra­ point try. The free safety must be able to recog­ nize play-action passes. He must be able to see things on the of­ fensive side of the ball and make a good judgment as to what is happening. The free safety really has to study the opposing quarterback the week before a game. He has to study all the looks the quarterback might give him trying to fool him into turning the wrong way. While a free safety may be more noted for his pass defense, his run support is essential. He plays the run in a different way than the strong safety. The strong safety’s job is to turn plays in on the strong side. He must sacrifice his body to pulling guards and charging full­ backs in order to turn the runner back towards tbe pursuing defense. That’s why the strong safety is considered more of a linebacker than the free safety. A free safety’s run support is more inside-out with more finesse. Because there are fewer people on the weak side, the free safety is supposed to detour the runner towards the sideline—in the di­ rection of the cornerback and the out-ofbounds area rather than turn him inside. Said one coach, “A free safety might be called on for run support to, the strong side, but only in special situations. And it would always be support in the alley on the strong side (between the end and the cornerback). He would be just an extra hand in the alley, not a primary defender.” A Wishbone offense presents tbe most run-support demands on the free safety. In many defensive schemes against a Wishbone, the free safety has either the quarterback or the pitch-man on both sides. He must read the play quickly, and react immediately. But he can’t be too run conscious. Many Wishbone formations are featuring wide receivers today. The free safety must give inside pass support to the cornerbacks. It is important that the free safety have a bit of cowboy in him. He must be able to steer-wrestle a runner to the ground when he is the last defender in the path to a touchdown. "If the baJJ is caught underneath, the free safety will usually be the last guy with a shot to tackle him,” a coach said. "We don’t care how pretty the tackle is, just as long as he gets him on the deck.” It’s a demanding—but fun—position. "I love it,” said one free safety at a major college. "You’re around the ball a lot. You have more chances for interceptions. You’re free to roam in a lot of our coverages. "I played strong safety one year, and that sort of limits you. If the ball isn’t thrown in the flat, you’re not going to be anywhere near the ball. You’re turning to chase somebody down all day. You sort of feel left out.” That isn’t the case at free safety. Coaches expect him to have plenty of action. "We have a rule and we’ll continue to live by it,” said one coach. "Any time that ball is thrown in the middle of the field, between the hash marks, that ball is bis. The free safety should lead your second­ ary in interceptions every year because of all the chances he’ll have.” A ALL-AMEBICA imnmn alter Camp All-America team chosen? ica center went on to a distinguished gave the invocation at President chored a great Army team.

GBEAT QUARTERBACK-RECEIVER COMBINATIONS continued til quarterback Dick Norman and end Chris Burford led the nation in 1959. Burford caught six of Norman’s 11 TD tosses, the pair climaxing the season in a Big Game loss to Cal. Norman completed 34 of 39 passes for a record 401 yards that day and Burford caught 12. 1963 when quarterback Don Trull won the passing crown and fired 12 TD passes, eight to Lawrence Elkins, who caught a record-setting 70 passes. But that season was just a tuneup for 1964, which fea­ tured four great pass-catch combinations from four different regions of the nation. 08 Cddie LeB«vn threw an Wstor/c 49 TD passes for Pacific In 1946. Miami’s George Mira gained headlines and records with his passes to Bill Miller in 1961 and to Nick Spinelli thereafter. Mira’s accomplishments were rivaled by two Northwest combinations. In 1960, Washington State’s Hugh Campbell caught a record 66 passes to lead the na­ tion, also snatching 10 of quarterback Mel Melin’s 11 TD passes. By this time, great pass-catch combos virtually were an annual occurrence, so their impact diminished. In 1962, Heisman Trophy winner Terry Baker of Ore­ gon State topped the nation in total of­ fense and touchdown passes (15). Vern Burke, his favorite target, caught 10 of the scoring strikes and also led the nation with a record 69 catches for 1,007yards. Baylor produced double champions in marks. One year later, with Bill Anderson doing the firing, Twilley obliterated all the receiving records with 134 catches for 1,779 yards and 16 TDs. He caught 19 passes in one game, 18 in another, and concluded his career with records that still stand: 261 catches, 3,343yards and 32 End John Rohde caught 29 of LeBaron s throws. California boasted of Craig Morton and Jack Schraub, a combo which clicked when each starred for Campbell High in the San Jose Area. As seniors in 1964, the Golden Bears pair flourished. Morton completed 185 passes and Schraub caught 52 of them, not counting the win­ ning touchdown for the West in a muddy Shrine Game. Morton’s 185 completions would have been a new single-season record were it not for Tulsa’s outrageous air show. Jerry Rhome and the aforementioned Twilley, a sure-handed, 5-10, 185-pound receiver, swept to national honors. Rhome completed 224 passes for 2,870 yards and 32 TDs, all national records. Twilley was on the other end 95 times for 1,178 yards and' 13 TDs, setting more TDs. The 1964 season also had Heisman Tro­ phy winner John Huarte of Notre Dame throwing to Jack Snow, who grabbed 60 passes, including nine of Huarte’s 16 TD tosses. At Florida State, Fred Biletnikoff latched on to 11 of Steve Tensi’s 14 TD throws, not including a 13-catch, four-TD binge by Biletnikoff in the Gator Bowl vic­ tory over Oklahoma. In 1965, the Anderson-Twilley outburst overshadowed a great Texas-El Paso tan­ dem of Billy Stevens and Chuck Hughes, who caught 80 passes for 1,519 yards, in­ cluding one dozen of Stevens’ 21 TDs. The Missouri Valley erupted again in ’66 with Wichita State’s John Eckman leading the nation in passing and teammate Glenn continued Bacardi ram mixes ^th everything. Except driving. GREAT QUARTERBACK-RECEIVER COMBINATIONS V Across the fields ofyesterday he sometimes comes to me a little child just back from play the child I used to be. Michigan QB Benny Friedman fired 13 TD throws in 1925. Bennie Oosterbaan was generally in the right pieces to catch Friedman’s passes. Meltzer ranking No. 2 with 91 receptions for 1,115 yards. Other great combinations of the midSixties included BYU’s Virgil Carter and Phil Odle, who in 1965-66 caught 106 passes, 16 of them for TDs. At Purdue, Bob Griese threw 12 TD passes in 1966, eight of them to Jim Beirne, who caught 64 that year. Sophomores Terry Hanratty and Jim Seymour gained national attention with an 84-yard bomb against Purdue in 1966. By the time the Notre Dame duo called it quits in 1968, it had joined forces for 16 TD passes. Two other star receivers of that era, SMU’s Jerry Levias and Florida State’s Ron Sellers, didn’t care who was firing. Levias, the first black to play in the SWC, caught seven of Mike Livingston’s 10 TD passes in 1967. One year later, the SMU senior snared 80 passes for 1,131 yards and eight TDs from sophomore slinger Chuck Hixson. Sellers, mean­ while, caught 212 passes for 23 TDs in 1966-68, becoming the favorite target of three different QBs: Gary Pajcic, Kim Hammond and Bill Cappleman. College football celebrated its 100th birthday in 1969, and some famous com­ binations put on a centennial air show. It began in a sensational season opener pit­ ting heavily favored Houston against Flor­ ida, which introduced a new battery in 32t sophomores John Reaves and Cubanborn flanker Carlos Alvarez. Their first play was a 70-yard touchdown bomb, triggering a 59-34 upset. Reaves topped the nation in passing with 222 com­ pletions and 24 TDs. The 5-11 Alvarez caught 88 balls, 12 for TDs. Purdue’s Mike Phipps threw 23 TD passes in ’69, Ashley Bell grabbing 11. At nearby Notre Dame,Joe Theismannand Tom Gatewood enjoyed a great hookup in 1969-70, Gatewood clutching 15 of Theismann’s 29 TD passes. The 1970 season un­ veiled a fabulous combo for Air Force. QB Bob Parker completed 199 passes for 2,789 yards and 21 TDs. Ernie Jennings was on the receiving end 74 times for 1,289yards and 17TDs. The South produced two great combi­ nations in the early Seventies. Auburn’s Pat Sullivan earned a Heisman Trophy throwing to Terry Beasley. In three years. Sully fired 53 scoring strikes and Beasley camped under 29 of them. At FSU, Gary Huff and Barry Smith enjoyed similar suc­ cess. Huff in three years totaled 52 TD passes and Smith caught 25. At the same time, Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Rodgers was making life easier for Ne­ braska QBs Jerry Tagge and David Humm. But the passing emphasis clearly had followed the lead of Stanford, Cal and San Jose State and moved West. San Diego State made it a foursome with QB Dennis Shaw throwing to Tom Nettles in ’68 and Tim Delany in ’69. Brian Sipe tossed 40 touchdown passes in 1970-71, 25 of them gathered by Tom Reynolds for coach Don Coryell’s Aztecs. Stanford rose to prominence with Heis­ man Trophy winner Jim Plunkett, who formed great combos with Gene Wash­ ington and Randy Vataha. The Stanford tradition pontinued with quarterbacks Guy Benjamin, Steve Dils, Turk Schonert and John Elway throwing to prime re­ ceivers like James Lofton, Tony Hill, Ken Margerum and Darrin Nelson. BYU’s Gary Sheide followed in Carter’s footsteps and was the nation’s secondranked passer in 1973,completingl77 for 22 TDs. Teammate Jay Miller topped the receivers that year, catching 100, includ­ ing 22 in one game against New Mexico. Jim McMahon kept the Cougars on top in 1980-81, firing 77 touchdowns to crack receivers like Scott Phillips, Clay Brown and Gordon Hudson. SMU’s Mike Ford and Emanuel Tolbert sparkled in 1977-78, Ford flipping 28 TDs and Tolbert catching 17 of them. And at Purdue, not far from where Dorais and Rockne made it all possible 66 years past, Mark Herrmann and Dave Young pro­ vided an effective pass-catch combo in 1979-80. Hermann threw 39 TD passes those two years and Young was the recip­ ient of 17 of them. gB Introducing the Olympus OM-G. Created for people who bring poetry to their pictures.

Ray Morrison by Galyn Wilhins, Fort Worth Star-Telegram e lived 97 active and fruitful football seasons. And sometime about the 60th or 70th, the pro­ fession should have passed him and left him in its high-tech dust. After all, Ray Morrison coached foot­ ball before the invention of artificial turf, domed stadiums, white shoes, airconditioning and 10-man coaching staffs. And before Joe Namath, who generally is believed by the modern generation to have invented the forward pass. Listen, children, Ray Morrison was throwing the football when it looked, felt and smelled like a pig’s hide and when it was shaped like a watermelon. Out of his mathematician’s mind came a shotgun spread of receivers as well as the trap play, a geometric piece of engineering that remains today a staple in all playbooks. He stationed two ends wide on the scrimmage line—split receivers they are called today, and their intricate patterns H dazzled fans and opposing coaches from West Point to Seattle. If he didn’t invent modern football back in the 1920s and 1930s, he was at least its godfather. He was far ahead of his time and Southern Methodist and the South­ west Conference haven’t looked back since. Morrison was SMU’s first coach, ar­ riving in 1915, and when he left for Van­ derbilt in 1935 he left the motor running. For three decades after his departure the SWC was known coast to coast as “the aer­ ial circus.” Morrison’s fast and bold tracks were followed by some of football’s most fa­ mous aviators—Sammy Baugh and Davey O’Brien at TCU, Fred Benners and Don Meredith at SMU and Bobby Layne at Texas. Inventive coaches took over where Morrison left off in the SWC, coaches like Matty Bell at SMU, Dutch Meyer at TCU and Homer Norton at Texas A&M. continued on page 38 3St he Lombardi Award is named for coaching legend Vince Lombardi and is given annually to the college football lineman whose out­ standing performance and ability are combined with a quality rev(!ied by Coach Lombardi—discipline. Four finalists are chosen each year bv a committee consisting of 100 college coaches, sportswriters and sportscasters throughout the country. The award winner is selected in three steps. First, each committee member nominates four candidates, and the twelve players gaining the most votes become semi-finalists. Then, from these twelve, voters pick, their top four choices, and the four with the most votes become finalists. In the third and final step, the player with the most votes wins the award. When deliberating over the award nominees, each member of the selection committee must be assured of the player ’s exceptional performance on (and off) the field, his unyielding discipline and his hard work and dedication. Discipline is so much a part of the Lom­ bardi Award qualifications that the word is inscribed on the award itself, which was created by artist Mark Storm in 1970. The trophy is a 40-pound block of granite mounted on a pedestal—representing Vince Lombardi, who at 5-8, ISS pounds was the smallest, but by no means the least, of the legendary Seven Blocks of Granite at Fordham University from 1934-37. At the award dinner, sponsored bv the Rotary Club of Houston, the Lombardi Award finalists are honored and the win­ ner is named. Proceeds from this dinner are donated to the American Cancer Soci­ ety; the money funds research to find a cure or control for cancer, the disease which took Coach Lombardi’s life in 1970. ou T ,r.., They’re all eeRei( ""«d6ns. detailed in America’s Make reservations £stvoiite Travel Guide, at any Best Western, see our hill-color 300-page your travel agent, or call listing of2,950 great toll-free 1-800-528-1234. places to stay in RestAssured^ 2,100 cities worldwide. 2,950places in 2,100 cities worldwide cS* A short weekend trip away from it all, or an extended vacationbreak, youll find the right place to stay.

He declined and came back to Texas, coaching well into his 70s at Austin College, a small, scholarly school in Sherman, a Yale on a small scale. When he retired, he moved back to Dal­ las. He lived near SMU and watched foot­ ball practice almost daily until he died in October, 1982. He loved practice, his sharp, mathematics-geared mind feeding on the repetition and the attack of numer­ ical strengths and weaknesses. "After all,” says George Koontz, a player and close friend until Morrison’s death, “he loved math and taught it for years.” A retired attorney, Koontz was one of those wide ends for Morrison at SMU. Morrison made such an impact with his aerial magic that Koontz later joined the Air Force. All coaches, the good and the failed, the Ray Morrison enjoyed watching SMU’s footbali practice after retiring from coaching. lucky and the unlucky, are remembered mostly by their numbers. If numbers are the criteria, Morrison will be remem­ bered as a success, especially in the SWC. Three of his SMU teams were un­ defeated and won conference cham­ pionships. An oddity Morrison could never explain, by addition, subtraction or algebra, was the 1929 season in which the Mustangs played four ties, two of them scoreless. They won six and lost none. 38t continued from page 35 Matty Bell, then at TCU and Morrison’s successor in 1935, tried to explain: "If Morrison’s teams couldn’t score, they weren’t going to let your team score. He was that tough a coach.” The measurement of Morrison’s career goes beyond debits and credits in the won-loss column. The bottom line, ac­ cording to Koontz, shows that Morrison turned kids into responsible adults. He never met a kid he couldn’t coach, or wouldn’t. “He always had a uniform,” Koontz said. “No one was turned away. And every player was a member of the team. He never let us forget the team concept and he always coached that way. He never coached just the defense or the offense, but always the team.” The son of a minister, Morrison was headed for a pulpit until he discovered he was a shy orator. He decided to capitalize on his talents as a football player. He ap­ plied at SMU, then on the outskirts of Dal­ las . He was hired at $200 a month and also had to teach math. There was one other condition. “He had to build the football field,” says Koontz. “When he arrived, the president showed him a cotton field and told him to turn it into the football field.” Morrison borrowed a plow and a team of horses and went to work. The field turned out well and eventually became a 30,000-seat stadium. His first team turned out 2-5. His second team turned out worse, 0-8, and Morrison was fired. Five years later, Morrison was back and put the Southwest Conference and SMU on the map. He took the Mustangs to the East, where the press looked upon them as a wild-west exhibit. He took them to the West Coast, where the press looked upon them as a delightful new invention. “No one had ever seen teams throwing from their own end zone,” says Koontz. "If a team threw any time but third and seven it was radical. Other teams threw in desperation, but Morrison’s teams threw with a purpose. We threw on first down, second down, fourth down and from any­ where on the field.” SMU went to Notre Dame a 33-point underdog in 1930 to face Knute Rockne’s last team, and one of his best. On their first two plays, the Mustangs threw passes, the second one for a touchdown. The game rocked along evenly until the last five minutes when Notre Dame wired together a drive and scored the winning touchdown—on a pass. “One unforgettable facet of Morrison was that he never let a bad play or a close loss bother him or the team,” says Koontz. “It hurt to lose that game at Notre Dame, but we got over it. That was the mathe­ matician in Morrison. He knew there would always be another problem ahead to solve.” Ahead was a trip to Annapolis to play Navy. Another problem, another solution. “He devised a unique plan,” Koontz re­ members . “He had the two ends run down the sidelines. The two halfbacks went deep in the middle. Then we threw a little pass over the middle to the fullback. He caught the first one we tried and ran for a touchdown. It was completely un­ expected by Navy—but that was Mor­ rison. You had to expect the unexpected from him. We won that game 20-7.” Morrison was sending four and five men downf ield on pass patterns in the era of the single wing and Notre Dame box. Thus he not only had to have a quarter­ back who could look around for open re­ ceivers, but a line to provide the time to search. “Morrison had the ability to teach a quarterback to see the entire field,” says Koontz, “but another secret was his great lines. He liked to take high school full­ backs and make guards and tackles out of them. That meant they were agile and could pull and lead interference.” Also in the Morrison repertoire was the Statue of Liberty play, which he had first used in a moment of desperation as a Van­ derbilt quarterback trapped on his own goal in 1915, and the mousetrap play, called simply, the Trap in modern playbooks. “We also had a play where the right guard pulled and led the fullback through a hole at left end,” Koontz recalled. “Only, we had a terrible time learning it right be­ cause the fullback kept running into the guard. So, Morrison had the fullback take the snap ^nd ground the ball, as if he had fumblec^ it. By the time he picked it up the guard was out of the way and leading in­ terference. That became known around the country as the ‘SMU Fumble Play’.” All of these teachings and innovations were transmitted quietly by a coach who talked on the field as if he were in a li­ brary. “It was conversational,” Koontz says. “He simply talked to us and we talked to him. We had an open invitation to make suggestions. He never cursed or raised his voice and he seldom used a whistle—a student manager always walked around behind him carrying it. “In this way he taught us to have con­ fidence in ourselves and our teammates. He taught us to expect to win, but to al­ ways play as sportsmen.” Morrison’s men won and they lost and then they went on to the next problem. On the way, Koontz will always remem­ ber, “we played hard, we played 60 minutes and we had fun. Coach Morrison made it fun.” a Interactive training Educational games Loan analysts Bond management Engineering circuitry’ Membership tracking Medical accounting Decision support tools Dental invoice generator Income tax preparation Data basefor insurance Apartment building system Athletic statistics Information retrieval Medical office system Medical Agnostic analysis Programming tools Writing CAL courses Church management Corporate budgeting Fixed asset manager Commodities tracking Amortization system Gamesfor executives Automated recipe file Personal tax planning Homefinance Printing labels Administrative reports Geometric graphics Color graphics Addressfile updating Spelling checker Name directory Word games Bar graphs Utility billing Retail management Project costing Mail lid management Hotel management Investment analysis Playing blackjack Electronic mail Activity organizer Survey analysis Information nwnagement ' V * ‘I Statistical studyjcross tabulation Lh-oject tracking Business marketing Hypothesis testing w Quantitative decision making Time billing Filing system Inventory control Schedulingjorganizing Cash flow analysis Database sortHndex General ledger Catab^ng diskettes Home budgeting Learning Pascal Fantasy games Payroll Projectplanning General accounting Accounts payable Accounts receivabb Job costing Wordprocessing Business graphics Arithmetic drill Lbuch typing lesson BASICprogramming Financial analysis Spreadsheet program IBM How many pieces ofsoftware can you use on the IBM Personal Computer? 1,000 and up.

A PLACE WHERE FRIENDLY PEOPLE ARE FOUND! SPECIAL LUNCH MENU MONDAY THRU FRIDAY 11:30-1:30 FEATURING THE BEST BURGER Edinboro embarked on a new era of football four years ago with the appointment of Dennis Creehan as the ninth head football coach in the University's history. Under his leadership the Fighting Scots raced to one of Edinboro's finest grid seasons ever this past year with a glittering 9-2 record, the Pennsylvania Conference Western Division Championship and a 12th place national ranking among NCAA Division ii schools throughout the country. Enroute to their highly successful campaign the Scots figured in 20 team and individual records which were either '^d or broken. Twelve new marks were established while eight other records were tied. The Scots offense finished in high gear averaging 26.7 points per game while a stingy defensive unit yielded only 10 points per contest. Edinboro was ranked eighth nationally during the year before dropping a tightly contested 24-22 clash with East Stroudsburg for the Pennsylvania Conference Champion­ ship. Creehan was a captain of Edinboro State's 1970 team that captured the Lambert Bowl, emblematic of the best college football team in the East, won the Pennsylvania Conference Championship and earned a berth in the NAIA national playoffs. He starred in the secondary as a strong safety that season when the Fighting Scots finished their regular campaign undefeated with a 9-0 record. Prior to a three-year stint on the Edinboro staff as an assistant, Creehan served as recruiting coordinator at the University of Pittsburgh in 1974 under Coach Johnny Majors. The following year he was a member of the Carnegie-Mellon University football staff as the team's offensive coordinator. Upon graduation from Edinboro in 1971, Creehan was named offensive coordinator at Keystone Oaks High School in Pittsburgh where he directed an offense that netted 3(X) yards per game. A year later as Keystone Oaks' defensive coordinator, he tutored a unit that allowed only eight points per game and permitted only a 33 percent completion mark by opposing quarterbacks. Creehan distinguished himself in the coaching ranks as defensive coordinator at Edinboro in 1976 when the Scots were ranked fourth among the nation's NCAA schools in rushing defense and claimed 18 interceptions. In the spring of 1977, he performed as acting head coach for Edinboro's Bill McDonald who was on a sabbatical leave. The young mentor has likewise had an outstanding athletic career as a football player. After starring as both a halfback and strong safety at Bethel Park High School, the Castle Shannon, Pa., native accumulated numerous grid­ iron honors at Edinboro. At the conclusion of his senior campaign for the Fighting Scots, he was accorded first team All-East honors by the ECAC and first team All-State Associated Press accolades as the Scots' strong safety, in addition, he was named to the Pittsburgh Press Ail-District first team and to the NAIA District 18 All-Star squad. He was one of the three 1970 captains who accepted Edin­ boro's Lambert Bowl trophy at the Lambert Awards Banquet in New York City. The 33-year-old coach's .575 winning percentage record via his four-year total of 23-16-1 moved him to second place in the win category behind his previous head coach Bill McDonald who holds a .614 rating with a 54-34-7 mark. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Creehan of Bethel Park, the Fighting Scot coach resides in Edinboro with his wife, Linda, and their two sons, Kevin and Casey. IN THE WEST!

Many un­ pleasant incidents have made headlines in newspapers across the nation all too frequently. That’s why the life of Alvin Nugent “Bo” McMillin still stands out as a tribute to the good that can come out of college athlet­ ics. , McMillin and his teammates on the Cen­ tre College football team shocked the na­ tion when they upset Harvard, a gridiron powerhouse that had not lost a game for five years, 6-0 on October 29,1921. It was an astonishing victory for the school from Danville, Ky., which had fewer than 200 students, and stunned the sports estab­ lishment from coast to coast. The elusive McMillin, who found his way to central Kentucky from Ft. Worth, C McMillin led Centre College to an amazing victory over Harvard in 1921. Texas, engineered the victory that many still consider to be the greatest college football upset of all times. He scored the game’s only touchdown on a dazzling 32-yard run and changed the country’s outlook about eastern football superior­ ity"That was the first time big eastern schools ever paid any attention to teams from any place else in the country,” says A.B. “Happy” Chandler, former governor of Kentucky and ex-commissioner of ma­ jor league baseball. “Before then, the eastern schools were disdainful of any­ body else. They didn’t think they could be beaten. Bo McMillin changed that.” Centre, known as the “Praying Co­ lonels” because of its pregame prayers, compiled a 38-4 mark during McMillin’s career and no one disputes that the tal­ ented quarterback was the leader of the extraordinary group. continued 43t The Rijht Stuff Collection.

In 1920 he and teammate Red Weaver became the first players from the South ever to make Walter Camp’s prestigious All-America team. While there are many All-America teams today. Camp had the only genuine honor team in McMillin’s day. “It was rugged to get on that team,” re­ calls George Chinn, the starting left tackle against Harvard in 1921. “Back then, hav­ ing McMillin and Weaver make AllAmerica was as big an upset as Cfentre beating Harvard. In those days you not only had to be north of the Mason-Dixon Line to be All-America, you had to be way As Indiana University’s head coach, McMlllln took the team to Its first conference championship. north.” McMillin’s influence on the college game didn’t stop when he ran out of play­ ing eligibility after the 1921 season. As head coach at Centennary College in Shreveport, La., and Geneva College in Beaver Falls, Pa., he compiled records of 25-3 and 27-5-1. After moving on to Kan­ sas State, he put together a mark of 27 wins, 21 losses and one tie. His greatest success came at Indiana University, where he gave the school its only undefeated campaign and first conference championship in 1945. The former All-America was named Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association and Football Man of the Year by the Football Writers 46t Association. McMillan had a 14-year record of 63-48-11 at Indiana. He went on to coach Detroit and Philadelphia in the National Football League before his death on March 31,1952. The legacy McMillin left behind, however, will never be forgotten. His journey from Texas to the small col­ lege in central Kentucky, which now plays Division III football, reads like a chapter in a fairy tale. Norris Armstrong was captain of the 1921 Centre football team. Before his death in 1981 he talked about McMillin’s childhood. Armstrong said, “He was raised in the stockyard district of Ft. Worth. That was one of the rqughest, toughest places around then.” A Centre alumnus, Robert L. “Chief” Myers, befriended the troublesome young­ ster and had him join his high school grid­ iron team at Northside High. Myers later arranged for McMillin and four team­ mates to attend Centre. Centre’s entrance requirements were as high then as now and McMillin and Weaver, another Northside product, spent a year at Somerset, Ky., to acquire the needed academic credits. The duo, along with Texas high school teammate Thad McDonald, earned extra money by pressing clothes while flattening the opposition on the football field. McMillin had his nickname “Bo” before he came to Centre. “Bo came from a rail­ road community and the only way to get around was to hop a train,” explains Chinn. “He hoboed all over the place. Call­ ing him Bo aptly described his method of everyday transportation. But it didnt de­ scribe his way of life. Bo was no bum. “He was one of the most religious men I’ve ever known. He didn’t swear, smoke or drink. If you uttered a profanity in the dressing room. Bo would be right there to knock your teeth out. He just wouldn’t stand for it.” Off the football field, though, McMillin did have one well-known vice. His ability to manipulate the dice in a crap game is as legendary as his moves on the gridiron. “When pay day came on the railroad, the railroaders just handled their checks before turning them over to Bo,” recalls Chinn. “They made him put the dice in a cup and throw them against the wall. But he still won. It was the same with pool. He’s one of the finest men I’ve ever known but he’d bet on how the wind was blowing or if the sun would come up.” To question his integrity, though, would be a mistake. Chandler points out, “Sure, Bo played craps and pool but he was a decent chap all of his life. He was a good man.” McMillin, who called himself “Nuge,” was as innovative on the field as off. He was one of the first college players able to pass while on the run. And in the open field his moves and intelligence left tacklers holding air because he was one of the first runners able to change directions after a play began. Perhaps his greatest attribute was his leadership. The team named him captain three times. He set high standards for himself and expected the same from his teammates. “Bo didnt just expect discipline and per­ formance,” explains Chinn. “He got it or else. But he was a great field commander, one of the coolest I’ve ever seen. He was all you could want in a quarterback wrapped up in one package. “His only problems came because he had small hands. Bo didnt throw the most perfect pass you’ve ever seen. It would wobble but it always went just where Bo wanted it to.” McMillin actually played five years at Centre because most of one season (1918) was spent in Army training and did not count against his eligibility. The Colonels went 7-1,4-0 and 9-0 McMillin’s first three campaigns, and the unbeaten mark earned Centre a spot on Harvard’s 1920 schedule. The eastern powerhouse won that first meeting 31-14, but as the final whistle sounded, McMillin vowed he would return and win in 1921. And he made good on his promise in such an im­ pressive fashion that admiring fans from Boston carried him off the field after the stunning upset. “It was a brilliant piece of football work,” wrote one journalist after watch­ ing McMillin’s TD run. “Bo used nearly ev­ ery trick available to a runner. As a broken field runner, the Centre quarter­ back is probably without a peer in the countr^.^’ McMillin, unlike today’s quarterbacks and other offensive players, also backed up the line on defense. He had the same flaming desire to succeed on defense. Failure was a word McMillin never un­ derstood. He went from one success to another as a player, coach and person. He lived life to the fullest but never forgot his religion. ‘Bo McMillin deserves to be a legend,” says Chandler. "He was just a little Irish boy without parents who didn’t seem to have a chance in life. But football gave him a chance to be a success. He never forgot that, and over the years he more than repaid his debt to the game that was so good to him.” Chinn adds, “Being able to survive the passage of time is the only testimonial Bo needs. He died young but he built a legend that should never be forgotten. Without Bo McMillin, college football wouldn’t be what it is today.” H f by Marvin West, Knoyvttle News Sentinel ollege football is blessed with a bumper crop of defensive stars this season.

Safety Mark Robinson, safety Harry Hamilton, tackle Greg Gattuso and line­ backer Scott Radecic all merit honors consideration. Robinson-, 5-11 and 197, plays free safety. He is already an All-America. He had two interceptions in the Sugar Bowl and four others last season. Among his other contributions was a 92-yard touch­ down punt return against Rutgers. “He’s our best tackier since Jack Ham,’’ says head coach Joe Paterno. “He reminds me very much of Jack Tatum, except Mark is quicker.

Michigan, also known for great de­ fense, features linebacker Mike Boren, 6-3, 226, twice All-Big Ten. Boren made 151 tackles as a sophomore and 171 as a junior. Mike’s story is improved by grow­ ing up in Columbus, Ohio and choosing to play at Ann Arbor. Auburn anticipates having a powerful defense this season, especially up front. Pro scouts say tackle Doug Smith, 6-6 and 270, is the prize, but Auburn coaches hint that tackle Ben Thomas, 6-4, 265, might be better. He has a flair for big plays. Tackle Donnie Humphrey, 6-2, 275, was All-Southeastern Conference in 1981 but missed last season with an injury. He made 121 stops as a junior and was the finest down lineman in the league. Pitt has some excellent defensive play­ ers. One of them, a starter since his fresh­ man year, is Tom Flynn, who totaled 82 tackles and one interception as a junior free safety last season, and led Panther punt returners with 254 yards. The 6-0, 195 Flynn will make the move to offense in 1983 as Coach Foge Fazio tries him at quarterback. Another is Bill Maas, who became the first Pitt interior defensive lineman to gain All-America status since Randy Holloway in 1977.

And, in the end, it comes down to controlling that excitement and channelling the building emotion. Often, that is not as easy as it sounds. How many coaches have lamented after a loss that their teams were “too psyched up" and too emotionally high? All the technology in the world has still been unable to come up with a way to bring players to just the perfect emotional peak. Here is one player's view of game day: EARLY MORNING (sometime between 9 and 10:30 a.m.); For home games, we eat our pre-game meal at a dining hall on campus. I enjoy home games a lot more, for obvious reasons. I’m with family and friends and everything is familiar. On the road, we’ll usually eat a little earlier at a hotel because we’re usually further away from the stadium. On the road we start breakfast around nine o’clock. At home, it’s usually an hour later. Most of the guys are quiet during break­ fast. We eat a good meal. Steak, usually. Some of the guys have problems eating in the morning because they’re starting to get worked up. I’m usually pretty relaxed, so I don’t have any problems eating. You see some guys with trays of food and trays of orange juice and milk. I eat my normal breakfast. Most of the older players are relaxed. They’ve been through this before. They talk about almost anything. But most of the time, no one is talking about the game. Sometimes, coaches will come by to check to see how a player is, if he’s getting over an injury or hasn’t been feeling well. Pre-game meal is usually pretty quiet. It’s a lot like everywhere else—everyone is just getting up. LATE MORNING (between 10:30 and 12): The bus ride over to the stadium is usually pretty quiet, too. A lot of the guys are wrapped up in their own little worlds. 60t trying to get mentally ready. Once we leave breakfast, we’re on our own. Every­ one wants to get into the locker room and get started on what he has to do. I start getting a little anxious. There are a lot of things to do now, but a lot of the guys are pacing around the locker room, trying to burn off energy. Some guys have to go in and get taped right away. I like to get that over with. But a lot of guys are just sitting in front of their lockers. There’s usually a television on somewhere. I like to watch cartoons after I get taped because it helps me relax. It keeps my mind off things for a little while. A lot of players read the game program. Honest. I don’t know how many of them actually read through it, because some of them just flip-through the pages. It’s a way to keep calm. I read through it. It starts getting me ready and starts me thinking about the game. I also like to make sure my name is spelled right. Around 11:00 or a little after, we have meetings. Everyone breaks up into groups and the coaches go over things again just to make sure we all know what we re supposed to do and to make sure there are no last-minute questions. The meetings aren’t too long. After that, ev­ eryone starts getting dressed. That’s when the adrenaline starts flowing. We don’t do it, but some teams go out onto the field before they get dressed and just walk around the field to get the feel of it. Sometimes it helps if you haven’t played in a place before. continued A state-of-the-art racecar. A state-of-the-art motor oil.

GAME DAY continued Even now, I’m pretty relaxed, but some guys are really psyched up. There’s a lot of dead time and you see a lot of strange things. A lot of players are superstitious. They have special routines for getting dressed. But everyone takes his time get­ ting dressed. I don’t consider myself superstitious, but I do certain things the same way. Habit, I guess. I always have to have the name on my socks on the out­ side. And I always put the pads on my left side in first. After I put my pads on. I’ll walk around, just to make sure everything’s right. Some guys walk around after every little piece they put on. By now, you can start to see more guys getting excited. Some guys walk around to the different lockers and try to get other players going. They’ll pound you on the shoulders and ask you if you’re ready. Some of what goes on is like what you see in football movies. Guys are banging their heads against later, the rest of the team goes out. Most of the crowd is usually in the stadium, so the team really starts to get pumped up. The calisthenics and drills get us going more and more. Now everyone is yelling. Even me. The coaches come around and double check with us. I start getting but­ terflies. I just want to get started. It’s im­ portant, though, to make sure you’re loose, especially on cold days. We break lockers, things like that. One time we had a defensive lineman who taped the num­ ber of the other team’s quarterback on the wall and kept banging his head against it while he screamed. He had his helmet on. That was just the way he got psyched up. There is a lot of electricity now, a lot of guys screaming and yelling and pacing. By now, everyone’s thinking about the game and totally consumed by it. I’m not a yeller, but I can see where it helps some guys. But I do like to be left alone. EARLY AFTERNOON (between 12:15 and 1:15): I feel like I’m ready to play. Around 12:45 or so (for a 1:30 game) the special teams go out to get loose. A little up into groups again and make sure we all know what we’re supposed to do. It’s almost impossible to find someone in the stands, even if you know exactly where they’re sitting. But everything is starting to peak now. The band is playing and the people are cheering. When we break and go back into the locker room, everyone is going crazy, jumping all over each other. It’s wild, but we all know what we’re doing. I’m just trying to concentrate on what I’m supposed to do and what my assignments will be, but it’s tough not to get caught up in the excitement. It’s usually pretty loud when we go back into the locker room. I cant describe what it’s like when we go back out onto the field for the starting 62t 'Tm just trying to concentrate on what I'm supposed to do and what my assignments will be, but it's tough not to get caught up in the excitement." lineups. It’s a big emotional rush, because the whole stadium is going crazy. I’ve learned to control myself because it’s easy to get carried away by it. You can get too psyched up and forget everything you’re supposed to do. GAME TIME: On the sidelines, every­ one is moving back and forth. Everyone is nervous, pacing around, wishing the game would start. You have to keep your head. Some guys can’t watch the opening kickoff, but almost everyone is standing on the sidelines. If we’re kicking off, we’re just hoping the other team doesnt run it back. If we’re receiving, we just hope for good field position. Guys will be walking around, patting each other, trying to be encouraging. But that’s just another way of burning off energy. I really have a lot of butterflies now. People will talk to me, but I really don’t hear what they’re saying, so I just nod yes. I’m too wrapped up in what I’m supposed to do. The game is the easiest part. Everything falls into place. We all know what we’re supposed to do and we just have to make sure we do it. On offense, if we’re stopped, a couple of us will get together on the sidelines and talk things over. Sometimes the coaches will come over to get a feel for how we are or to explain something. I get the feeling a lot of them would like to be out on the field. Sometimes, during the week, I might daydream a little about making a big play or maybe scoring a touchdown. When I actually do it, it’s probably the greatest emotional high I’ll ever experience. By the time the game develops, a lot of the emotion gives way to concentration. I’m very ^usiness-like after a while. All the buildup is over and I’m just trying to keep a level head. That’s hard to do if you come up with a big play. There is not as much emotion during the game as there is before it or at half­ time. Mostly, everyone is concentrating on his assignments. But if someone does make a big play, everyone gets going again. All day, emotions are up and down. You’ve got to learn to control them. I’ve seen a lot of guys who were just too emo­ tional and too anxious. That does more harm than good. Halftime can be like starting all over again emotionally. I review things, make certain adjustments and try to think about what I did in the first half—both good and bad. Depending on how close the game is, things can really get tense on the sidelines in the second half. POST-GAME: Now comes the hard part—meeting with the media.

Elbel, who had studied in Leipzig, Germany to be a concert pianist, later opened a music house in South Bend, Indiana, where an­ other famous college song is heard. Elbel and William Revelli, director of the Michigan band from 1935-71, were long-time friends until Elbel’s death about 20years ago. "He had a great sense of humor and he enjoyed coming back to the campus to direct The Victors’," said Revelli. “One time, I wanted to change some things in the song, put down the brass in that soft trio. But he wanted it louder and louder. We rehearsed it that way, but when we got to the performance I had told the band to really play it loud, and the trombones even stood up. He got quite a laugh out of that.” That other South Bend tune, Notre Dame’s "Victory March,” was written in 1908 by brothers John and Michael Shea. Both were students there at the time, and Michael went on to become a priest. "I knew John, and he said that many of the schools in that period had started to have their own songs and Notre Dame didn’t have one, so he and his brother just wrote it,”explained Robert O’Brien, direc­ tor of the Notre Dame band. The "Victory March ” is widely copied by high schools, particularly Catholic schools, across the country. In fact, O’Brien was director of two high school bands in the 1940s that had adopted the song as their own. “I never dreamed I would be here directing the Notre Dame band,” he added. Joseph Casasanta wrote several songs for Notre Dame when he was band direc­ tor in the ’20s and ’30s. Among them was “Notre Dame Our Mother,” the alma ma­ ter. It was first played at Knute Rockne’s funeral in 1931. Oklahoma’s "Boomer Sooner” was bor­ rowed from the classic Yale “Boola Boola.” The Oklahoma band uses two other songs, "OK Oklahoma,” written by Fred Waring, and “Oklahoma!” from the Broad­ way musical and film. The latter also is the official state song. ‘"Boomer Sooner’ is one of those songs that everyone kind of laughs at when they hear it, but it makes people’s blood run red around here, ” said Gene Thraillkill, di­ rector of the OU band the last 12 years. "When I first took the job here and they sent me a recording of ‘Boomer Sooner,’ I thought, ‘they’ve got to be kidding.’” The Iowa people weren’t kidding when they replaced the “Iowa Corn Song” with GRAND GETAWAY $33 PER PERSON DOUBLE OCCUPANCY SUN.

Willson, a native Iowan who gained worldwide fame with “The Music Man,” knew plenty about band music. He had been a flutist with John Philip Sousa’s band that toured the U.S., Mexico and Cuba from 1921-23. It might seem as if Wisconsin has re­ placed its classic “On Wisconsin” with “You’ve Said It All,” a rousing singalong song that was originally heard only in beer commercials. But Michael Leckrone, director of the Badger band, insists that “On Wisconsin”^another school song which also is the official state song—is still No. 1. “On Wisconsin” became the school song after a university-sponsored contest in 1906, first prize $25. Carl Beck and Wil­ liam Purdy originally had written it as a Minnesota fight song—Purdy, legend has it, had riever even been in Wisconsin — but they changed the lyrics when they heard about the search for a Wisconsin song. Now, “On Wisconsin” is played by high school bands across the country. “When we go on a road trip, we always play at a high school football game too, and often ‘On Wisconsin’ will turn out to be the fight song for both of the high schools,” Leckrone said. The University of Southern California is one of the oldest universities in that state, and it has one of the country’s old­ est and most famous songs. “Fight On” was written in the 1920s by Milo Sweet, then a student. He became an orthodon­ tist and, sadly, died on New Year’s Eve, 1979—the day before USC’s last Rose Bowl appearance. Tony Fox, assistant director and ar­ ranger of tbe use band for tbe last 13 years, rates “Fight On” among the top fight songs in the country. “It’s something that’s highly identifiable with tbe university and the band. When continued 66t ““W never bi held th.* , T 1 continued you have a really famous fight song, peo­ ple who aren’t even alumni of the univer­ sity get going when they hear it,” said Fox. "They hear that fight song and it’s really a battle cry.” use often uses another song, “Con­ quest,” from the 1947 film "Captain from Castille.”Though the film concerned Cor­ tez’ march through Mexico, the song fits in nicely with Trojan marches as well. But can football fans get too much of a good thing? Band directors generally follow their in­ stincts when it comes to determining how often a school song should be played. Some things they can’t control, though. By tradition, for example, the OU band plays ‘ Boomer Sooner” after touchdowns and "OK Oklahoma” after extra points. There has yet to be documentation of a coach holding down the score to prevent the band from playing the school song. "My rule of thumb is to try not to over­ play it, ” Leckrone said of "On Wisconsin.” “I try to use it judiciously so that when it is played, it has some impact.” Impact? When 70,000 or so people sing and clap their hands over a school song, that’s more than impact. It’s musical rragic, and it happens coast to coast every fall. m BUSHNELL Quality farther di^ the eye can see* Bushnell Binoculars.

NEW NCAA RULES FOR 1983 ollowing is a summary of the major rule changes adopted hy the NCAA rules committee at its Jan­ uary 1983 meeting: The Kicking Game—The rules committee adopted three major changes in the rules governing the kicking game. 1.) Officials were given direction for determining what giving a player an “unmolested opportunity” to catch a punt or free kick entails. The committee defined “un­ molested opportunity" as meaning all players of the kicking team must remain two yards in all directions from the receiver while the ball is in its downward flight. 2.) The committee deleted the exception to the rough­ ing the kicker penalty provided to players blocked into the kicker, and substituted the following provision: A kicker or holder guilty of faking being roughed or run into will be penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct. 3.) The penalty for roughing the kicker or holder re­ mained unchanged at 15 yards and automatic first down, but the penalty for running into the kicker or holder was established at five yards. Officials—The committee amended the rules to allow F for the use of a seventh (the previous limit was six) official, a side judge, to aid enforcement of rules regarding illegal use of hands. Disruption and Delay of Game-The committee passed three rule changes designed to stop what it called disruptions on the field that delay the game or engenders ill will after scores or any other time.” 1. ) The penalty for a substitute entering the field for any purpose other than to replace another player was in­ creased from a five-yard delay of game penalty to a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct infraction. 2. ) Cheerleaders, band members and mascots were added to the list of those subject to the rules and official decisions. 3. ) The rule requiring the player in possession to return the ball immediately to an official after a score or any other play was amended to prohibit taking the ball off the field, kicking or throwing the ball any distance that re­ quires an official to retrieve the ball, spiking the ball, throwing the ball high into the air and any other un­ sportsmanlike act that delays the game.

THEI-FORMATION continued an explosive Wishbone halfback. Now for the next interesting angle. Even Oklahoma began the switch away from the ’bone to the I last season, mean­ ing we not only have a trend here, but a stampede to this versatile offensive attack. Most close followers of college football are aware that Southern California was the first to exploit the advantages of the to the defense. As with many football formations over the years, one person climbs to fame and gets most of the credit for somebody else’s idea. At Delaware, for example, when Dave Nelson was the head coach he devised the Wing-T to combine the quick-striking power of the T-formation with single­ wing blocking. other coaches saw nothing special in what he was doing. Critics said the I didn’t allow for much versatility—amusing now, since that’s one of its main features—and questioned whether ballcarriers could get outside the ends when packed so close to the line of scrimmage. This was the crucial change made by McKay. He moved the tailback six or Horme Ctii- nio Hormt Ctiii jniici-i Qeoo! r V,'! vf. ^ Among the Heisman Trophy winners to run out of the l-formation are Longhorn Eart Campbell (left) and two-time winner Archie Griffin of Ohio State. I-formation back when John McKay was head coach from 1960 to 1975. use has produced Heisman Trophy recipients with steady regularity, plus several others who wound up No. 2. First there was Mike Garrett in 1965 and O.J. Simpson in 1968, both of whom weye judged to be best in the land. They were followed by Anthony Davis in 1974 and Ricky Bell in 1976, both of whom fin­ ished second in the Heisman voting. More recent Trojans who ran off with the Heisman were Charles White in 1979 and Marcus Allen in 1981. All six of those players, of course, piled up their yardage as I-backs behind a wave of blockers, giv­ ing rise to the term: “Student Body Right, Student Body Left.’’ That’s how it looked 76t But it was Nelson’s old friend and former Michigan teammate. Forest Evashevski, who brought the Wing-T to national prominence when he took Iowa to a pair of Rose Bowl victories in 1957 and ’59. So it was with McKay. He did not origi­ nate the I, he merely copied and altered the idea Tom Nugent developed at Florida State in the 1950s. Nugent is believed to be the first coach to have his team line up with the quarter­ back under center, the fullback close behind and the tailback right on their heels in a tightly-bunched trio. It was an I as opposed to a T. Nugent enjoyed modest success, both at Florida State and later at Maryland, but seven yards behind the line, giving him the latitude to follow his blockers outside for good gains, or to cut back inside and utilize his natural instincts as the play develops. What you had was the concept of the old single-wing tailback—which is the position McKay had played as a high school star in West Virginia. Later, he was a T-formation halfback at Purdue just after World War II, before he transferred to Oregon. Having played both styles, he had this to say in a book called “McKay, a Coach’s Story”: “A single-wing tailback has the ideal running posture. He’s in the middle of the continued HORMEL CHILL ALL THE MAKINGS OF HOMEMADE. Good lean Homiel beef. Rich tomato sauce. Plump chili beans. And a secret blend of spices to make it taste just like home. Hearty and delicious. Ser\ e it. And don’t be surprised if they ask, “Is it homemade or Honnel?” Because sometimes it’s really hard to tell. THE 1-FORMATION continued formation, directly behind the center, and back far enough to get the best run­ ning angles. "But more important, he can see what’s going on—because he’s almost upright. He’s not scrunched over in a three-point stance; his hands are on his knees. He has to be that way in order to do all the things required of a single-wing tailback. "The T-formation was great, but as a Tformation halfback, the view I got was mostly somebody’s rear end.” Thus, in effect, McKay made his best runner into a single-wing tailback, a workhorse who would carry the ball 25 times a game and more. Garrett’s figures reflect the change — each for a 10-game season: 125 carries for 833 yards as a sophomore I-back in 1963, then 217for 948 yards the next year, and 267 for 1,440 yards when he won the Heisman. Simpson came along to roll up 1,709 yards in his Heisman year, an NCAA record since bettered (by Marcus Allen, 2,342 when he won the Heisman), and O.J. lugged the ball as many as 20 times in a quarter! What use accomplished in those years under McKay—he had a 127-40-8 record —naturally wasn’t lost on the rest of the country. As more teams began to give the I a try with their talented running backs, tail­ backs like John Cappelletti of Penn State captured the Heisman in 1973, Archie Griffin of Ohio State became the only twotime winner in 1974-75, and Tony Dorset! took home the prestigious award while leading Pittsburgh to a national cham­ pionship in 1976. Veteran Ohio State Coach Woody Hayes had almost lived and died with a fullbackoriented offense for years, until Griffin demonstrated how much easier it was to reel off long-gainers by improvising as an I-back. Woody was a reluctant witness to what he was seeing, however. He didn’t believe a back could be so effective without going "by the book.” Hayes ordered his statisticians to keep charts on every play that was called and where it went. The evidence conclusively showed Griffin making more long runs doing his own thing, going for daylight and not necessarily where the original play was directed. Woody still got plenty of mileage from his fullback, though, because he had a 240-pound tank named Pete Johnson helping to clear the way for Griffin. The year Archie won his second Heisman, Johnson led the nation in scoring with 25 touchdowns. The split-back Veer and Wishbone offenses have been the other leading 78t methods of moving the football on the ground over the last two decades, but de­ fenses have made rapid inroads on under­ mining their effectiveness. At Texas in 1977, when Earl Campbell was thundering toward the Heisman, the unbeaten Longhorns were going no­ where one afternoon against Baylor. They were trailing, 7-0, when Campbell dropped into the I-back slot, gathered in a pitchout and romped 68 yards to a touch­ down. It was the spark that ignited a 29-7 victory. Texas and Oklahoma were two of the foremost Wishbone exponents, but the glory days for that triple-option attack faded after Sims powered the Sooners to a 22-2 record by rushing for 3,268 yards in 1978-79. Oddly, the Oklahoma Wishbone was both born and killed on a playing field far from Norman. The epitaph might read: Born 1970, died 1982, Ames, Iowa. Things were not going at all well for Coach Chuck Fairbanks and his Sooners early in the ’70 campaign. Steve Owens had won the Heisman (yes, as an I-back) for Oklahoma the previous year, and Fair­ banks then shifted to the Veer offense, hoping to take advantage of quarterback Jack Mildren’s ability. But losses to Oregon State, Texas and Kansas State left the Sooners no better than 3-3 heading for Iowa State. The Wishbone had been tried briefly but failed to generate much offense in the 41-9 thrashing by Texas. Things were des­ perate. "We thought we were going to be fired,” recalled one of Fairbanks’ assistants at the time. "We’d already lost a conference game to Kansas State, and if we also lost to Iowa State, we figured that would be it. ‘About our only hope was the Wish­ bone. We decided to go with that and let the chips fall where they may. The rest is history.” There’s a bit more to the story than that, however. Iowa State jumped out to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter, and you can imagine how those insecure coaches felt by then. ' But the Sooners rallied to win a 29-28 thriller, and the rest is pretty much his­ tory. They lost very few times with the Wishbone over the next decade. There is one basic problem with the Wishbone, despite all the trickery and ex­ plosive potential. The defense can almost dictate which back will carry the ball by the way it deploys, whereas in the Iformation it’s the offense that sets the tone by repeatedly giving the tailback room to roam. Dropback passers also are an integral part of the I. Wishbone quarterbacks must be runners first and foremost. There is little flexibility. It’s worth noting that all the major bowl games last New Year’s Day were won by teams running primarily from the Iformation: SMU in the Cotton, UCLA in the Rose, Nebraska in the Orange and na­ tional champion Penn State in the Sugar. Obviously in college fodtball these days, the I’s have it.

Why are a lot of college men and women becoming buddies in Army ROTC? Probably because Army ROTC is full of the kind of people other people go out of their way to meet. ROTC students tend to be high achievers who are interested in more than their studies. They’re popular students with a serious side, but who like to have a good time, too. In other words, when people join Army ROTC they often meet people a lot like them­ selves. For more information, contact your Professor of Military Science. MllSter ^ ARMY ROTC. BEALLYOUCANBE.

Through its annual Convention, the NCAA speaks for the nation's colleges and universities. The NCAA is the voice of college athlet­ ics. A call for stricter control of college football by President Theodore Roose­ velt because of the violence in the game brought together 13 institutions in 1905, formulating the original communica­ tions base for college athletics. This initial body called itself the In­ tercollegiate Athletic Association and was officially constituted March 31, 1906. In 1910, the name was changed to the National Collegiate Athletic Associ­ ation. More than seven progressive decades have molded this original 13-member body into a membership today of more than 900 colleges, universities, confer­ ences and affiliated organizations. Administration and rules interpreta­ tion occupied early efforts of the organi­ zation. Shortly after World War II, the NCAA adopted legislative and executive powers, changing its function into one dealing with virtually all issues con­ cerned with intercollegiate athletics. Many things have become associated with the NCAA during its colorful his­ tory. Highest priority goes to the service it provides to its members, acting as the true "voice" of college athletics today. Each January the NCAA membership comes together at the annual Conven­ tion to review, propose and amend leg­ islation. The Convention presents the opportunity for the nation's institutions of higher learning to speak and act on athletic matters on the national level. Acting in the best interests of its membership, the NCAA strives to per­ form these specific functions among its many other responsibilities: • Conducts 41 annual National Colle­ giate Championships in 19 men's sports for three separate divisions. Three championships (Division I, Division II and Division III) are held in baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, ice hock­ ey, soccer, swimming, tennis, outdoor track and wrestling. Two championships are staged in gymnastics and lacrosse. Fencing, indoor track, volleyball and water polo hold single National Colle­ giate Championships, while football is contested in Divisions I-AA, II and III. The NCAA is conducting 31 women's championships in the 1983-84 academic year in addition to the 41 held for men. ^SAANS^y/p /A., House of Edinboro HOUSE OF EDI\HOHO fACTC»<> LX.SlGNt^ SHCMTa'X3M RCXm faN tDiNEORO Factory Designer Showroom NCAA headquarters (top) and the recently completed west building, both in Mission, Kansas. Women's championships are held in all three divisions in basketball, cross country, field hockey, softball, swim­ ming, tennis, outdoor track and volley­ ball. Two championships (Division I and Division II) will be staged in gymnastics, while fencing, golf, lacrosse, soccer and indoor track will hold single National Collegiate Championships. In addition to the aforementioned events, coeduca­ tional rifle and skiing championships are conducted, crowning one national champion. • Maintains 39 men's and women's sports committees for the administration and conduct of championships for the respective divisions, including 16 men's and women's rules committees to for­ mulate, copyright and publish rules of play for the governance of collegiate sports. Members of the sports and rules committees are elected by representa­ tives of NCAA members at the annual Convention. In addition, the NCAA Council appoints the members of 25 general committees and a number of special committees as well as delegates to other organizations. • Publishes a tabloid newspaper 46 times per year, rules books in 12 sports, record books in football and basketball and various other publications. • Collects, compiles and distributes the official statistics of college football, basketball and baseball in men's sports, and basketball and softball in women's sports. • Conducts studies as a means of de­ veloping solutions to athletic problems. • Represents the membership in leg­ islative and regulatory matters on the state and Federal levels. • Annually selects the College Athlet­ ics Top Ten and the Theodore Roosevelt ("Teddy") Award—the Association's highest honor. • Administers an honors program which annually awards 90 postgraduate scholarships to recognize outstanding senior student-athletes who have ex­ celled in the classroom as well as ath­ letics. This scholarship is for $2,000. The program has provided $1,854,000 to 1,399 recipients since its inception in the 1964-65 academic year. • Promotes and participates in inter­ national sports planning and competi­ tion through membership in the United States Olympic Committee, Amateur Basketball Association of the USA, Track and Field Association of the USA, and the United States Baseball, Gym­ nastics and Wrestling Federations. • Maintains more than 90 full-time staff members at its national headquar­ ters in Mission, Kansas, under the su­ pervision of Executive Director Walter Byers.
