The Battalion
Thursday, Decembers,
A&M defense busy preparing for Florida State's talented backfield
Continued from Page 5
The Aggies could surprise FSU like they
surprised Brigham Young in last year's
Holiday Bowl, Teichelman said.. BYU
was heavily favored going into the game,
but the Aggies came up with a 65-14 win.
It was the largest margin of victory in
bowl history.
"It's just like last year and the Holiday
Bowl," Teichelman said. "We might just
come out and surprise somebody."
The Seminoles have one of the most
versatile offensive backfields in the coun
try. Weldon, a senior, was a finalist for the
Davey O'Brien Award. He was the 11th
best offensive player, averaging 227 yards
total offense per game. Junior tailback
Amp Lee is an All-America candidate and
is one of the shiftiest runners in the na
tion.
But senior fullback Edgar Bennett may
be the best of the three. The least herald
ed of the group, Bennett is an effective
blocker and runner, and can catch passes
coming out of the backfield.
Atkinson is wary of Bennett's abilities.
"Edgar Bennett is the best fullback
I've ever seen," Atkinson said. "He's in a
class with (former Texas A&M fullback)
Robert Wilson. Their backfield is a lot
like ours was with Darren Lewis and
Robert."
As an Aggie, Lewis rushed for more
yards than any runner in Southwest Con
ference history. Wilson was Lewis' pri
mary blocker.
"Amp Lee is a lot like Darren. He
doesn't have blazing speed. He's not that
type of runner, but he's real quick and he
can make a fool out of anybody.
"They have the best backs in the na
tion, and their quarterback has a real
good arm."
Weldon won this year's Johnny Unitas
Golden Arm Award, given to the best se
nior quarterback in the country.
"You always have the deep ball threat
which puts pressure on the secondary,"
Atkinson said. "And they're going to
pressure us up front. First, we have to try
to stop their run, and then if we do, they'll
start throwing. They're going to be a
tough opponent."
As a unit, the A&M defense is ranked
No. lin the nation, allowing 221 yards of
total offense per game. The Aggies rush
ing defense is No. 4 and rate No. 8 in scor
ing defense, giving up 13 points a game.
FSU's offense is the 12th best in
country, averaging 450 yards a game.
A&M junior linebacker Marcus Bud
ley welcomes the challenge that the R.
offense brings.
"I think it's something our wholei
fense is looking forward to," Buddi
said. "Their offense is near the top ini
nation. Knowing they have such a
(offensive) backfield, it's just a chalbj
for our defense.
"I wouldn't say we're nervous,
just another big game we have to prepa.;
for. Put anyone on the field and we'
ing to prepare for them the same."

Let either Washington beat
Michigan in the Rose Bowl and
Miami lose to Nebraska in the
Orange Bowl. Or let Michigan
and Washington tie and Miami
destroy Nebraska, so we don't
have to go through another Col-
orado-Georgia Tech fiasco like
last year, when the Buffaloes
finished the year ranked on top
of the Associated Press poll,
and the Yellow Jackets finished
on top of the United Press Inter
national poll.
That's about it for the foot
ball list. Now let's go to the
baseball Christmas list.
•Santa, let Bobby Bonilla
feed a country or two with his
salary. The country is in a re
cession in just about everything
except for baseball. Bonilla gets
more than five and a half mil
lion dollars for hitting a little
Whitehall. He can't even play
defense. So Santa, make sure
the baseball owners are in their
right minds over this holiday
season.
That is pretty much it for the
baseball list. I'll worry more
about baseball when it comes
time to ask the Easter Bunny for
presents.

Since it's the winter meet
ings for the major league teams,
Santa has to be keeping track of
the events taking place there.
•So Santa, please send the
Texas Rangers home from the
meetings before they do some
thing stupid. They are talking
about trading Ruben Sierra, one
of the best young players in
baseball. They would rather do
that than pay him $6 million a
year.
• If the Rangers want to win,
they would pay Sierra the mon
ey. The Rangers need to start
building a winner and quit be
ing concerned about whether
Nolan Ryan is going to continue
to sell tickets, whether they win
or lose.
•Santa, let the Aggies win
some basketball games this
year. They sure try hard, but al
ways seem to come up on the
losing end of the scoreboard.
Santa has to love a team tha;
hustles and plays hard for 40
minutes. So please Santa, start
rewarding the Aggies with a
few wins.
• And Santa, please let old
Ebeneezer Scrooge himself, Bill
Laimbeer, decide to give up the
game of basketball and devote
the rest of his life to trying to be
a good-will ambassador. That
would truly be a Christmas mil
acle.
So now it's time to check thf
list twice and send it to the
North Pole. Merry Christmas
