uburn's Dye hopes to control

UBURN, Ala. — New Auburn

erback Steve Stamp will be a

|med Frogs in Saturday’s sea-
opener.
Tfwe don’t get any pressure on
quarterback, someone will get
m and he’s good enough to get
to them,” said Dye. “Our
ehes feel Stamp will probably
the best quarterback we ll play
inst all year.
Stamp, a 195-pound senior,
for 1,830 yards and 14
jchdowns in 1980, and set a
100I record with 408 yards in

I His top target is speedy all-
thwest Conference receiver
mley Washington, who grab-
34 passes for 501 yards and
t touchdowns a year ago.
]“I don’t think there is any ques-

d of pressure we get on the
terback,” he said. “It won’t
itter how well we cover if we

With Auburn bringing in a dif
ferent coaching staff and a new
wishbone offense, TCU Coach
F.A. Dry says he knows “little or
nothing” about the Tigers in 1981.
“We have some knowledge of
individual players from last year,
but since Auburn changed its
schemes, we’ve pretty much had
to start from scratch in preparing
for them,” he said.
“Trying to teach kids who aren’t
used to seeing the wishbone in
such a short time is tough,” he
said. “We re going to have to play
an error free first game and that’s
difficult to do. ”
Auburn will depend heavily on
a senior and a freshman in its wish
bone offense.
Senior quarterback Charles
Thomas, who shared quarterback
ing duties last year in the I-
formation, will run the attack.
Dye will also be counting on full
back Ron O’Neal, a speedy 242-
pound freshman, to make the
wishbone work.
On defense, Auburn will be led
by senior tackle Ed Nelson and
senior linebacker Danny Skutack.
The Tigers are young, starting
only five seniors on the first 22 on
defense and offense.
“We are going into the game
with a lot of football players who
never have had to go out there and
win a game on their own ability,”
said Dye. “That concerns me.”
Auburn is looking for a record
opening day crowd of near 60,000
at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

road in successive weeks beginning Sept. 19.
