Aggie-Husker matchup definite
for ’88 Kickoff Classic Aug. 27
From Staff and Wire Reports
Nebraska and Texas A&M, both
with designs on college football’s na
tional championship, will open the
1988 season in the sixth annual
Kickoff Classic.
The New Jersey Sports & Exposi
tion Authority, which puts on the
game at Giants Stadium, announced
the matchup Thursday and said the
Kickoff Classic will be played on Sat
urday night, Aug. 27.
“Both teams should be ranked in
the top 10 going into the season, so
whichever team loses probably won’t
drop off the cliff,” A&M Head
Coach Jackie Sherrill said.
Nebraska finished sixth in the fi
nal 1987 Associated Press poll and
A&M was 10th, both with 10-2 re
cords. They have met on five occa
sions, the last time in 1972, with Ne
braska winning four of the five.
Nebraska defeated Penn State 44-
6 in the first Kickoff Classic in 1983
while A&M, winner of three straight
Southwest Conference champion
ships, is making its first appearance.
It also is the first time the SWC is
represented.
“These teams are genuine candi
dates for the 1988 national
championship, and the game will
have national impact,” said Bob Mul-
cahy, president and chief executive
officer of the Sports Authority.
“It gives us the highest ranked
teams since Miami and Auburn in
1984, and we look for a blockbuster
The addition of Nebraska gives
A&M another rugged game on a
schedule which includes September
dates with three 1987 bowl teams —
LSU, Alabama and Oklahoma State.
“They can accuse me of a lot of
things, but they can’t accuse me of
dodging anybody,” said Sherrill,
who also is A&M’s athletic director.
“I don’t think anyone in the country
will play a schedule as tough as that
one.
“Jackie Sherrill the athletic direc
tor woke up this morning and
wanted to play this game. Jackie
Sherrill the coach is still asleep. I
suppose I’ll take a saliva test tomor
row.
“It’s a great opportunity for us to
play a team the caliber of Nebraska

game.
When Miami defeated Auburn
20-18 in Kickoff Classic II, the Hur
ricanes were coming off the 1983 na
tional championship and Auburn
had finished third.
An NCAA rule limiting a team to
one Kickoff Classic appearance in
five years prevented Miami from be-
invited this
ingi
year.
“There are two ways to look at it
(the schedule). We’re taking on a
very tough schedule, hut in our con
ference we’re fighting for the Cotton
Bowl and playing those four people
up front is going to prepare us for
the conference race.
“Last year, playing LSU and
Washington in our first two games
certainly prepared us for the confer
ence race.”
Athletic Department officials
originally had cast doubt on A&M’s
participation in the game because
the game would be only one week
before the Aggies’ regular-season
opener against LSU. Athletic De
partment officials had said as late as
Monday night A&M might not play
in the game.

Navratilova survives upset bid in tourney
DALLAS (AP) — Top-seeded
Martina Navratilova, trailing 2-4 in
the first set, rallied to a 6-4, 6-2,
third-round victory over Larisa Sav
chenko of the Soviet Union Thurs
day in the $250,000 Virginia Slims
of Dallas.
Savchenko’s serve-and-volley
game and unpredictable tactics con
founded Navratilova early in the
match.
Navratilova went ahead 5-4, then
had to fight off a break point before
she closed out the first set.
“She made some crazy shots, shots
you wouldn’t normally try in certain
situations,” Navratilova said. “You
wonder if she’s really that good, if
she knows what she’s doing, or what.
She either hits a winner or misses.”
Savchenko, 21, is one of six Soviet
women competing this winter on the
Virginia Slims tour in preparation
for Olympic competition. Eighth-
seeded Natalia Zvereva, the 16-year-
old top junior in the world, is the
only Soviet player left in the tourna
ment. She faces second-seeded Pam
Shriver in one of Friday’s quarterfi
nals.
“It was very bad,” Savchenko said
through her interpreter, Soviet
coach Olga Morozova. “When I was
ahead, 1 wasn’t exactly nervous but I
didn’t really believe 1 could win. I
knew what I had to do. 1 just didn’t
have enough concentration.”
“You have to believe you can do
it,” Morozova said. “You have to be
strong inside and she’s not really
strong yet.”

action Thursday night easily ad
