For one thing, Sandusky has yet to play a down for the Aztec football team. For another, he stands just 5 foot-8 and weighs only 170 pounds. Sandusky's physical profile may seem better suited to the library than the locker room, but every eye on the field will be on the little flanker when football begins in the fall. When the footballs do come out of the bags, many of them will be spiraled toward Sandusky, who promises to become a most useful newcomer on the Aztec team. "A Godsend," Scovil calls him, and it is easy to see why. Darius Durham, Clint Sampson and Phil Smith - San Diego State's three ranking wideouts in 1982 - were seniors. Without Sandusky, a passing team would be asking younsters such as Vince Warren, Brett Blanchard and Kenny Moore to make game-winning plays. But when Sandusky transferred to San Diego State from Nevada-Las Vegas last summer, the Aztecs acquired an athlete who in 1981: • Was a second-team Associated Press All-American. • Led the nation in yards receiving (1,356) and was fourth in the nation in catches (68). • Caught the game-winning touchdown pass in Nevada-Las Vegas' shocking, 45-41 victory over BYU in Provo. • Had seven receptions for 119 yards against San Diego State. "We felt pretty secure going into that game, because we had Vernon Dean covering him," Scovil said. "Well, Dean (now a Washington Redskins corner-back) did a great job on him, and Jimmy still caught seven balls. I think all of us are sleeping better, knowing he'll be there this fall." Still, it is surprising to find Jim Sandusky playing a significant role on a major college football team. "My career didn't exactly get off to a flying start," he recalled yesterday. "I went out for the eighth-grade football team at Othello, and got kicked off the team the first day. My science teacher was the coach, and he didn't like me much, anyway. He caught me without my mouthguard in and sent me packing." Later, because he was a small player at a small school in a small town in by Bill Finley Southeast Washington, he went totally unrecruited. In 1980, however, Sandusky - by now a sophomore at Walla Walla Community College - caught 50passes and scored 15 touchdowns. He was chosen a first-team junior college All- American. He even received a scholarship offer, from Nevada-Las Vegas. After mulling it over for about five seconds, he signed. "As a receiver, I wanted to go to a passing school, and Coach (Tony) Knap is a lot like Coach Scovil - he's just a wizard at the passing game," said Sandusky. By September, Sandusky had won a starting position. "Our first game was at San Jose State, and the first play was a pass to me," he said. "I caught it, the play went 17 yards, and I thought, 'Heck, this is just pitch and catch, like it was in jaycee." By season's end, Sandusky was one of the more popular athletes ever to play football in Las Vegas, but a funny thing happened on his way to a spectacular senior year. Knap retired. The rest of the coaching staff was fired. "I started thinking about leaving when I heard Coach Knap was leaving, but I stayed for spring ball just to see what would happen," Sandusky said. "Everything changed, philosophy-wise. I'd been catching 200 balls a day; under Coach (Harvey) Hyde, I caught maybe 15 or 20. We didn't even have a receiver coach. I was down to one year of eligibility; I didn't want to spend it on a team that ran every down." Sandusky transferred to San Diego State last summer (1982), and sat out a year. Now, he is anxious to return to football. I haven't really played in a competitive situation for a year and half," he said. "But I don't think I've lost anything. I'm as fast as I've ever been (4.6 in the 40) and I'm probably a little stronger. The biggest thing this spring will be for the quarterbacks and receivers to get on the same wave-length." Sandusky will have only one year to prove himself at San Diego State. The Aztecs are convinced that he will.

I am pleased to welcome all of you to another exciting year of football competition at the University of Utah. Overall, athletic programs enhance a feeling of pride not only in the institution, but in the state as well. Each season, nearly a half-million people are live participants in the University's football schedule. Athletics is a stimulating and productive way of cementing the bond between campus and community. Athletic achievement can always be a source of personal pride, and is also an intrinsic complement to the basic educational mission of the University. I salute the University of Utah as it begins another season, and add best wishes to my Alma Mater for a successful year in continuing the fine traditions of this state. Sincerely, Scott M. Matheson Governor For all of a s this is a season of excitement and a time of purpose. I welcome each of you to Rice Stadium for this festive event which marks the beginning of our academic year, and the unveiling of some new and high hopes. The setting today is an athletic one, and we are extremely proud of this newly refurbished facility. Our enthusiasm, however, is not bounded by the stadium. This occasion opens another chapter in the University's history and our sense of purpose on campus is something we wish to share with the community at large. I know, as does each athlete on the field tonight, what it means to open a new season. Grethe and I are deeply moved and challenged by the new role we have been chosen to play in shaping the future of this proud and promising institution. We invite all Utahns and all other alumni and friends to lend us support through their good will and their appreciation for the educational process, and thus to continue to give life and hope to the University of Utah. We want to begin this new season together - this University, linked to this community and to this state. There is momentum to be maintained, potential yet to be reached, and promise to be fulfilled. It is an exciting time. C'tU** ( £\4i AA1*\ Chase N.

THANKS A MILLION, U-T-A-H .for the million or so visitors who visit our campus yearly to attend nearly 400 cultural and recreational events. That's a vital statistic for us because it serves to confirm, once again, that the campus-community relationship is strong, active and flourishing. The University is more than an academic institution-it's a gathering place for the entire community. There is a mutually strengthening association between the University and its best friends and patrons-the citizens of Utah. Thanks a million!

With the expansion of the Stadium, which was completed last year, the Utes now have one of the best stadiums in the Western Athletic Conference. The new stadium seats 35,000 people and there is not a bad seat in the house. The field was lowered nine and a half feet with new seats added along the sides and in the south end zone. The new remodeling has made every fan feel like his seat is intimate with the action on the field. A new facilities building was also completed under the south stands, and houses new locker rooms for both teams and game officials, a stadium club room and a band room. Several new concession areas have also been installed in the new stadium. One of the best things about the new stadium is the four-color matrix scoreboard, the only one of its kind located on a college campus in the country. The scoreboard is almost as much fun as the RICE STADIUM Top 15 Crowds 1. BYU 2. Utah State 3. Utah State 4. USU 5. BYU 6. Wyoming 7. BYU 8.

There are 4,600 lights in the matrix and each one is individually controlled. Almost any kind of visual effect can be produced on the screen. The stadium also features new AstroTurf which was installed during the latest rennovation. It is the same kind of AstroTurf that is featured in Texas Stadium in Dallas. The last remodeling of the stadium took place in 1972 when the first AstroTurf was intalled along with the Scholarship Box, located on the east side of the stadium. A new lighting systems and new ticket and concession areas were also installed at that time. First rudiments of the stadium were completed in 1927. Constant improvements and remodeling projects since that time have made it one of the finest in the West. Rice Stadium is a timber and concrete structure with dirt fill. A major remodeling project was completed in 1966 which saw the installation of a press box on the west side. Utah defeated Colorado Mines 44- 6 in the first football contest played in the stadium. &d J[\eticado Mexican Restaurant 778 SOUTH WEST TEMPLE 531-6337 HOURS: Mon.-Fri. 10 a.m.-8 p.m. 5at. 10a.m.-4p.m. Closed Sunday HOMEMADE: • Soft Shell Tacos • Chili Verde Burritos • Chili Rellenos - TAKE-OUTS ALSO - 1983 FOOTBALL SEASON PAGE 7 PLAY MOVIES ON YOUR T.V.

Bezyack, CLU Ogden Office Bruce Bowen Provo Office Ask me, How your life insurance may pay your premium costs for you. Many people want lifetime protection. But they don't want to pay out-of-pocket p r e m i um costs their entire lives. You can solve this problem with New York Life's special "premium offset" arrangement for whole life insurance. With it, dividends declared by New York Life are used to buy additional permanent life insurance. After a number of years (usually 7 to 11), these additions can be surrendered periodically. Their cash value, plus future dividends, can be used to offset the entire annual premium costs of your basic policy. Dividends can't be guaranteed, of course, but we're proud of our dividend record which goes back more than a century. Interested? Call one of these New York Life Agents. Helpingyou is their full-time job. These are s o m e of the many New York Life Agents in this area-all good people to know. GENERAL OFFICES: Val J.

Fairman Gears for the Finale by Tony Tsakakis On a crisp, cool November afternoon last fall, with a record crowd in the stands of Robert Rice Stadium, the BYU Cougar football team beat Utah 17-22 to capture its seventh straight WAC title. But in the eyes of the Utah fans, coach Chuck Stobart's squad had, at least, claimed a moral victory, shutting down the vaunted Brigham Young offense and keeping the game within reach until the final gun. Play after play the swarming Ute defense, No. 1 in the Western Athletic Conference in 1982, inflicted its own brand of organized mayhem on the Cougars holding the champions to their second lowest output of the season. And after each play, one Utah defensive player could be seen doing his versiqn of a war dance and "high-fiving" every teammate within reach. That player, No. 66, was Ute senior linebacker Jay Fairman dispensing what he calls "infectious enthusiasm." The 6-1 foot, 213 lbs., Fairman will be moving into his third season as a starter but downplays his on-the-field, wild-man gestures. "I have always done it, especially when I am tense and fired up for a game," Fairman said sitting in Rice Stadium before a recent practice. "During a game, I always try to look towards making the next big play and not look back at any mistakes. Besides I think it's demoralizing for the other offensive team to see 11 guys go crazy afte a play." Last season first-year mentor Stobart put togethera 5-6overall markanda 4-3 conference record; the kind of season Linebacker Jay Fairman leads the Ute defense in enthusiasm. that leaves a player anxious for another chance to redeem himself. 'I don't like to make any predictions," Fairman said. "But I will say that we are looking forward to. this season. Our team is much quicker this year and that always helps the defense. When you have speed you can make up for the mistakes you make. Our defense this year is about the quickest I have ever seen. It's not too unrealistic for our defense to be No. 1 in the WAC again. One of the keys to any degree of success for the Utes will be the experience and leadership of the Hacienda Heights, California native. Fairman, along with junior Mark Blosch, should give the Utah team the best linebacking corps in the WAC, considering they were both all-conference (Blosch-2nd team and Fairman-honorable mention) and that they combined for over 250 total tackles in 1982. Fairman knows a good combination when he sees one and thinks the one he sealed on July 9 may be his best yet. That's the day he and Pia Fairman exchanged marriage vows after dating for four years. "I met her at Utah. We had a class together and just started seeing each other," he said. But will football and marriage be an adversary relationship? "I think having a girlfriend is harder. When you are married it doesn't seem like there is as much pressure because you have common goals," Jay said. "She helps me so much, both with football and with other goals in life, which is to keep mine and my wife's health and try and live a full life.'' After his collegiate days are over, Jay would like to pursue a business career in the sports world although he's not quite sure in what aspect yet. And of course, there is always the possibility of professional football. "I would love to play pro ball; that's everyone's goal but too many guys depend on it actually happening," Fairman said. "I think it depends on your mind and your confidence." Right now his mind is concentrating on the Utes' bid for the WAC crown though and he says the Utah team has the ingredients necessary. "To be a good team you have to overlook the obstacles," Fairman said adding, with the confidence of a member of the WAC's top-rated defense. "If our offense gets going, we'll be all right."

Last year, Kenny Jackson became the first Penn State wide receiver to earn All-America honors. THE NATION'S BEST IN OFFENSE by Herschel Nissenson, CoUege FootbaU Editor, Associated Press Johnny Majors was hacking his way around a Dallas golf course in June 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 first opponent, Majors' ears perked up. He grinned and said: "That's okay. I'm just glad the best football player in the nation 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 (Herschel Walker, Eric Dickerson, Curt Warner, Kelvin Bryant, Michael Haddix, Oklahoma State s Ernest Anderson set a Big Eight record in 1982 by rushing for 1,877 yards. Tim Spencer, Craig James, Gary Anderson) 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 rounding up this season's potential stars on offense, 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 is massive at 6-5, 270-and he's only a junior. Two years ago, he became the first Pitt freshman to start his first collegiate game since Tony Dorsett in 1973. He stepped right into the position vacated continued It BEST IN OFFENSE Duke QB Ben Bennett topped the ACC in passing efficiency and total 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 football player," says Joe Moore, Pitt's offensive line coach. "As a freshman, his pass blocking was unbelievable. In his sophomore year, his pass blocking improved. As a freshman, his run blocking was outstanding. His sophomore year, he improved 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 offensive 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 Mclntyre, North Carolina is wild about 295-pound Brian Blados and Ohio State's Bill Roberts is among the elite. Others to watch: Conrad Goode (Missouri), 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 continued 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 40yards in a startling 4.67 seconds and he consistently got the highest rating among Nebraska's linemen last year, who 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 junior. He is now a 6-4, 255-pound senior Florida's Wayne Peace set an NCAA passing record last season. 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 wont be BYU's QB Steve Young tossed for 3,100 yards and 18 TDs in 1982. 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 y a r d s -a s i n g l e - s e a s o n Nebraska record-and scoring 15 touchdowns. His per-game average of 140.8 yards was fourth nationally and heading into his final year the 5-11, 210-pounder needed only 183 yards to become the Huskers'career rushing king. A fine receiver and kick returner, backfield coach Mike Cor-gan 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 2 t The legend of The Pendleton Shirt It all began in the Pacific Northwest. At the turn of the century, a pioneer family began weaving blankets, robes and shawls of exceptional 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 before in England. 1 • i *-4r InM 'j^^n *., m \ s - ' ,tf fir? ? m ' \ a < 4i fine i 1 • i • 1 1 V j Through the years, Pendleton blankets and robes came to be considered a standard of value among settlers and Indians throughout 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 fabrics which were then tailored into shirts that loggers, ranchers and sportsmen of the region could wear a lifetime. Each shirt was "warranted 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 making 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 yarn, weave the fabrics. And then, in over 60 careful steps, these pure virgin 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 Pendleton Shirt. And always will. The legend deserves no less. BEST IN OFFENSE continued 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 sensational freshman year-his 905 regular-season yards made him the first rookie ever to lead Oklahoma in rushing, and he didnt 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 Auburn, Bo Jackson "could be the most talented athlete in Southeastern Conference history." Auburn's first three-sport letter-man 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 Flutie threw for 2,739 yards last year. Maryland's Willie Joyner rushed for 1,039 yards in 1982. 166-pound Lionel "Little Train" James, rushedfor 779yardsonll3carries-a 6.9 average-and led the nation in punt returns with a 15.8-yard average on 24 returns. 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 1,545 yards. 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 Mc- Callum (Navy); Joe Mcintosh (North Carolina State); Ricky Moore (Alabama); Lorenzo Hampton and John L. Williams (Florida); Thomas Dendy (South Carolina); 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 winning is the name of the game and the win-ningest quarterback around doesnt have glamorous individual statistics. However, the Southern Methodist Mustangs have won two consecutive Southwest Confer- After gaining 1,208 yards last year, Georgia Tech's Robert Lavette should be among 1983 's leading runners. 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 signal-caller in the SWC last year, passing for 910 yards-don't 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 elsewhere-to Wayne Peace (Florida); Ben Bennett (Duke); Steve Young (Brigham Young). They ranked fourth, fifth and sixth nationally last season under the NCAA's complicated passing efficiency formula. Peace set an NCAA record by completing 70.73 percent of his passes (174 of 246); Bennett topped the Atlantic Coast Conference in total offense and passing efficiency, while Young, a direct descendent of Brigham Young himself, threw for 3,100 yards and 18 touchdowns 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 completed 289 of 504 attempts (57 percent) for 3,517 yards and 19 touchdowns in his first season of major college competition continued 4t BEST IN OFFENSE 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 programmed 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 Syracuse, 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 dont want to turn him into a robot. He really goes into every game expecting good things to happen. I dont think he harbors any negative thoughts. It all boils down to the fact that he's a kid with tremendous confidence in himself. It's infectious. 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 boom-boom- boom, and bingo! They have a touchdown." Nebraska's Turner Gill came back from a 1981 nerve injury in his leg that threatened to end his career and led the Cornhuskers to a 12-1 record, a second straight continued 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 interceptions, and rushed for 497 yards and four TDs. With Gill at the helm, the Husk-ers 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-1 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 challenge from a heralded redshirt freshman named Jim Plum. Brigham Young's Gordon Hudson is in a rut. He has caught 67passes 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 California's David Lewis, who grabbed 54 passes for 715 yards last year. Others to watch: Cliff Benson (Purdue); Paul Bergmann (UCLA); Tony Camp (Pacific); John Chesley (Oklahoma State); Glenn Dennison (Miami); John Frank (Ohio State); Jon Harvey (Northwestern); Dave Hestera (Colorado). Thomas Dendy, South Carolina running back, will be a runner to watch this season. 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 last year 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 Anderson (Ohio State); Jesse Bendross (Alabama); Jeff Champine (Colorado State); Dwight Collins (Pitt); Dwayne Dixon (Florida); Irving Fryar (Nebraska); Robert Griffin (Tulane); Duane Gunn (Indiana); Jessie Hester (Florida State); Gerald McNeil (Baylor); Eric Richardson (San Jose State); Tim Ryan (Wake Forest) and Eric Wallace (Kansas State). A 6t HOW MUCH DO YOU MISS IF YOU DONT WATCH THE BALL? by John Jones, The New Orleans Times-Picayune College fans don't watch football games. They watch the football. As it's being snapped from the center to the quarterback. As the quarterback hands it off or passes it to another player, who runs with it or catches it or fumbles it. There is an undeniable logic to ball watching. Since it always draws a crowd, the ball is easy to follow. And, watching the ball leaves ample time for important duties such as eating a hot dog, drinking something tall and cool or ogling cheerleaders. 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. continued fe, DON'T WATCH THE BALL "Chart down and distance. Chart tendencies. Know where you've got a mismatch 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 minimal 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 continued game watching. To initiate your odyssey into the intricacies of college football, send for the media 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 10 days. 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 general public for prices well under $10. You may also want to send off for the Look for your team's play patterns so you 'II know where the ball is going. media guides of teams you'll be watching on television, but remember that televised 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. Locate the team's depth chart and read up on which players you'll most likely see at each position. Once youVe 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 didnt have as much to look at or keep track of, binoculars may have been extra baggage. Now they're a requisite. Bring along a legal sized pad and several pencils for note taking. Since it's cumbersome to keep track of all this assorted gear, you may want to buy a tote bag. Many teams sell tote bags with the university's mascot printed on it. Come prepared to do all your own game work, but dont discourage the interest of fans sitting near you. You may get lucky and find a friend who shares your interest in learning more about football. You're thinking like a coach now, so you'll have to forego some of the camaraderie that usually uncorks during a game. Save your partying for later, when you can impress everyone with your knowledge 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 review 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 person charts what formation the offense used and how much yardage the play gained. The third person charts what formation the defense used, whether it blitzed and whether it tried to disguise its intent. If you dont 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 lOt DON'T WATCH THE BALL To reach an understanding of the strategy 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'SO-yard line; the opponent'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 situations. 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-continued 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 defense. During the first three to four weeks of the season, most teams are feeling themselves out. The early games are an invaluable time for compiling statistical information 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 Pac- 10 schools. "The story I always remember is about John Brodie. While Brodie was at Stanford, someone noticed that every time he put his left foot forward he ran to the right. Every time his right foot was forward he ran to the left. "The defensive coaches told their players that whenever they saw Brodie's feet lined up a certain way they should automatically 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
