J3UST0N — It says a lot about both teams this year that Oakland
is quarterback Marc Wilson, at one time the understudy to
d Nielsen at Brigham Young University, became a starting NFL
erback before Nielsen did.
i injury made a difference in the success formula in the case of
ieiM n, 27, who probably would be starting for the Oilers when they

Wilson, 24, will be under center making his fourth consecutive start
K ice of benched early-season regular Jim Plunkett. He recalled
e he learned some early lessons.
—'ve always looked up to Giff (Nielsen) more than anybody else,
filsmi said. “When we were together at BYU, I respected him so
Mi not only as a football player but as a person. I tried to be like
I”
He added, however, “Our (quarterbacking) styles are a little diffe-
1 because I’m a little more mobile.”
lilson gained a NFL starting berth earlier than most people
Ight he would. The desperation brought on by three straight
leless games earlier this season pushed him to the front, and since
las started the Raiders are 2-1.
lie Oilers experienced no such desperation despite inconsistency

Jnine games.

^nght losses, and it is likely they will have a change of quarterback.
