And that suits Indians coach ■ry Lacewell just fine. Arkansas State is a Division II m, so they’re not supposed to The Indians have a 2-0 re but the teams they’ve itenareTennessee-Martin and essee-Chattanooga—not ex powerhouses. So the Aggies asily be overeonfident in urday s match.

"Well, I’ve got a lot of friends down there (A&M) and this is the only way me and my wife can go see them,’’ Lacewell countered. Want more? How do you feel about your quarterback and offensive line coach? “All I know is that my quarter back is smarter than I am,” Lacewell said. “Some of the guys on the offensive line are about as old as I am.’’ Lacewell definitely isn’t uptight about Saturday’s game. But that doesn’t mean he expects to lose or that his Indians will be outclassed by the Aggies. "Physically, I don’t think we can (match up with A&M),” he said. “But we have some pretty good players and we have a quarterback (Tim Langford) that can execute and run the offense well. “He’s a real good football play er. In the games that we’ve won, he’s had big nights.” Texas A&M coach Jackie Sher rill agreed. One factor that Sherrill said the Aggies will have to contend with will be the wishbone offensive allignment Arkansas State will be using. “It’s hard to play a throwing team (California) and then come back and play against a wishbone, he said. “You have to re-teach ev erybody on defense. It puts a lot of restrictions on the defense.” Sherrill said he feels the Aggies can contain the Indian running attack, but pass coverage could be a problem. “The key is how well your out side linebackers and safeties play,” Sherrill said. “But you nev er know what to expect. Langford can throw the ball well. “You can’t be as wreckless on defense because even though they only throw the ball five or six times, it’s usually to a wide-open receiver. ” AGGIE NOTES: Texas A&M coach Jackie Sherrill said Monday that freshman running back Rod Bernstine will be the starting tail back for the Aggies Saturday. He added that he will, however, alter nate tailbacks at times...When Arkansas State coach Larry Lacewell visits College Station Saturday, he will be reunited with one of the first coaches he ever worked with. Sherrill and Lacewell coached together at Iowa State in the late 1960s. Of that experience, Lacewell said: “I let him coach the linebackers and they made five interceptions. And now he’s making a million dollars- freshman runningback Keith Woodside will likely sit out the Aggies’ game with the Indians be cause of an ankle sprain he suf fered during practice Thursday. Sherrill said he had planned on starting Woodside at tailback against Arkansas State...Sherrill also said preseason all-conference tight end Mark Lewis is impro ving on his rehabilitation and should be ready to play in the Aggies conference opener at Texas Tech. )SU well aware of Cincinnati s potential ; events, including! ;>niglitin211Pavilioi caker is Dean Kunl ' Heep at 7:30tonigll| ic to attend theors y Sciences. derToweratTtonil United Press International STILLWATER, Okla. — Cin- nati probably will be sky high lowing its 14-3 win over Penn ite, Oklahoma State coach Jim- Joltnson says, but at least his Iwboys will have a better idea of fiat to expect than they did ainst North Texas State. 1 “Itwill be interesting, ” he said :ational meetingaMfif this week's game against the <er (A&A).

Johnson had said earlier most coaches agreed college football teams make their most improve ment between the first and second games of the season. Following Saturday’s win he said a a lot of his team’s improve ment would be based on knowing the next opponent better. “With North Texas State we had to rely on one person’s view (an assistant coach’s scouting re port) of the game, ” Johnson said. “Well have a Cincinnati film. Well know the defense that they’re running. We ll know the offense that they’re running. We ll know about their personnel.” Although the Pokes were not sure what to expect from North Texas, they were able to compen sate enough to win the first game of Johnson’s fifth year at OSU. And if not “sky high, ” he definitely was pleased. “Obviously I’m very happy with the victory,” he said. “I’ve been telling everybody all week that North Texas State has a very good football team. They’re a tot ally different team than we’ve seen the past two years.” For one thing, the Eagles held tailback Ernest Anderson to 80 yards on 25 carries before he left the game with a groin pull with 10 minutes left to play. A year ago Anderson rambled for 220 yards against North Texas and went on to become the na tion’s top rusher of the season. But by using a nine-man defen sive front the Eagles allowed the Cowboys to do some passing, such as the 28yarder from Rusty Hilger to split end Jamie Harris for a touchdown late in the second period toat gave the Pokes a 103 halftie lead. Choking on finals at the U.S. Open by Milton Richman UPI Sports Editor NEW YORK — No matter what else you heard, Ivan Lendl didn’t choke during Sunday’s U.S. Open final. He gagged and the way he was playing, he should’ve. To me, it looked as if he simply quit cold because he got so frustrated and disgusted. Re mind you of somebody else? He does me. I’ll let you know the Czechoslovakian equivalent of “no mas” as soon as I find out myself. Understandably, Jimmy Connors tip-toed around the whole subject. He evaded it beautifully and you couldn’t really blame him considering the circumstances. With five U.S. Open tennis titles and two of them in a row under his belt, what would be the point in demeaning the man he had just beaten for the second straight year, 6-3, 6-7, 75, 6-0, before a capacity crowd of 20,575 that was all for him Sunday at the National Tennis Center. “I’m not saying he rolled over, ” Connors chose his words carefully, repeating those last two only because one of his questioners in the interview area had used them. “I’m saying he was a little dejected. ” Connors was putting it mildly. The second-seeded, powerhitting 23-year-old Czech appeared to have him on the run for a while when he won the second-set tie-breaker, 7-2, to even their match and then ran off a quick 5-3 lead in the third set. Reminded that Lendl has never won a Grand Slam event even though he has made more than $4 million and won 33 other titles, Connors was asked whether he thought Lendl chokes on the big ones. “I think you’re jumping on him a little too hard,” Connors said. “He is a little bit lax in the final. L suppose you could say that because he has never won one. But I don’t think ‘choking’ is the right word. ” Until Sunday’s final with Connors, Lendl had not lost a set and had his serve broken only five times in six previous matches during the Open, but he was never the same after he double-faulted twice in the 10th game of the third set, hitting two balls into the net when he was serving at 5-4 and having Connors at set point. Connors went on to win the set and Lendl merely went through the motions in the final one. To his credit, Lendl didn’t come up with any excuses. He stopped short of saying he flat out quit, but he admitted the same old enthusiasm wasn’t there anymore after those dou ble-faults. He can explain it any way he likes, but the truth was there for everyone to see. He did everything but give the final set to Connors. “I never really recovered from the set point double points,” he confessed. “I should’ve never lost the third set.’ What about the way he sleep walked through the final set? How could he account for that? He and Connors went to deuce eight times before Connors wrapped it all up but what did Lendl have to say about how easily Connors put him away in the final set otherwise? “I felt mentally down, ” Lendl confessed. He was asked about his men tal toughness, or rather his lack of it, particularly in this latest confrontration with Connors, who he had beaten three times previously, and he answered that one also. “I think I was tough enough,” he said, referring to Sunday’s match. “But if you keep doing the mistakes like I did, it doesn’t matter how good or how tough you are, you’re never TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE I hold officer electifflj eeording tapes ati ces mts ms testified durii| d later was acy for allowing ( e horses forcoIM ;n though the fedea held title to iNI was charged Fter officials found ^ it his ranch.
