Senior outside linebacker Marcus Buckley hasn't practiced all week because of swollen an kle and knee joints/ Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum said Buckley may have rheumatory arthritis, but a complete diagnosis hasn't been made yet. "Our team is a defen sive team and we've known for a week or so that it's unlikely Marcus will play/' Slocum said. "I don't think it will have a great impact on our defense." BUI Walsh doesn't think so, either. But the prospect of faring what last year was the nation's No. 1 defense, allowing just 222.4 yards per game, still has the Cardinal coach concerned. "They have extreme quick ness, speed and they play very. Aggies. r T think the system of de fense that A&M is using is the best one for their athletes and could very well be the best in football," he said. 'They have a way to get to the passer, they can blitz freely, they have the defensive backs who can cov er/ m: Jt Bill Walsh very disciplined football," Walsh said. f T don't think an in dividual will make any great difference as far as Stanford is concerned. "We hope he recovers be cause he is a great football play er. In the meantime, we're going to see a squad that is just much faster than we are as a team." Simply put, Walsh thinks No. 17 Stanford, with a schedule that includes Notre Dame and Washington, won't face a tougher defense this season than that of the seventh-ranked Trying to stop the blitz will be Stanford's formidable offen sive line, which last sea son gained celebrity as the NCAA's biggest It averaged 6-foot-7 and more than 300 pounds. "We have big ath letes on the offensive line and they're experi enced," Walsh said. "They've lost about 15 or 20 pounds per man since we've established a new style of football. It re mains to be seen if we're quick enough to stay with the A&M defensive front That'll be an in teresting matchup." Four starters return to the line — Brian Cassidy, Glen Ca vanaugh, Chris Dalman and Steve Hoyem. That kind of experience is something the Aggies don't have. Although they return 16 starters, A&M is young. "You look at 18 senior starters and four junior starters, compared to — without Marcus — one senior starter on defense and two on offense," Slocum said. "There's a tremendous dis parity in the experience factor and that concerns me in an opening ball game. "There's a number of guys I've never seen in a game that will be starting in the opening scries." Whitley StU< Continued from Page 11 •run: tSot IhJ Stanford Continued from Page 11 in the Pac 10," Walsh said. "He excels at all phases of the game, whether he is running the ball or getting open on passing routes and catching it." Defensively, Stanford hopes to give the Aggie offense the same kind of problems the A&M de fense gives their opponents. With three down-linemen and four linebackers, the Cardinal tries to utilize the speed of out side linebacker Ron George in pursuing offensive backs. Inside linebacker Tom Williams said the stress on this game has been the Stanford of fense against the A&M defense, and said this was a big chance for the Cardinal defense to shine and earn a name for itself. "Defensively, I think we are severely underrated," Williams said. 'That's all right though, be cause I don't mind being the un derdog. If you are the underdog, people will often overlook you and that's when you can gain the upper hand on them. "I think our defense plays much like the A&M defense in that both teams offer a pressure period. Just like them, we like to come at you from all directions." Dalman said that with both teams ranked in among the top 20, the winner of this game would have a good shot at going on and possibly competing for national post-season honors. He also said he felt no matter what the outcome, both teams had what it takes to be successful throughout the year. 'This is a big game and a big chance to prove to everyone that we are a national power," Dal man said. "But no matter who wins I don't think the other team will fold after the game, and I think both will finish the season in a bowl game. "Both of these teams are too good to whither away after one loss." They were picked by everybody to win thenatioi last August only to wheels come off after thi loss of the season to Miami that same story was 1988 and 1989. Such might be the fate Aggies as tne 1992 season ana talk of a national cl onship looms. That's why A&M should get down on their and thank the Lord for the land Pigskin Classic. Leaving College Station, all that was heard dealt Aggies' beginning their unbeaten season. Butin California, the talk re around Bill Walsh. The return of the thn per Bowl champion coach undated the television and the newspaper artides. press conference Tuesday, Coach R.C. Slocum was about the return of Walsh than their own expectations, Granted, when someont) the name-recognition Walsh has comes outofretii to coach college football after seasons as an analyst on ne television, it's definitely! But not the only one. Now the pressure feltir heim Stadium on WediteJ night lies not with the with the young Stanford who ultimately will whether or not Walsh's retm be a success or a failure. The Cardinal (yes, it'ssii not plural) had a successful in 1991 under Dennis Green, ing an 8-4 record and wii out of their final 8 games, plus the return of their who made good in the NR out optimism and high g( this year's team. But as expectationssoai member that this is a new running a new system. No that, but a coach that! stepped out on the sidelines 1988. Also, Stanford's not typically shown onnal television much, espedally games with as much fanfai this one. So, even though the talkdi with nothing but the coming successes back hotre assured that they will hat- confidence while their opt® are the team with somethii prove. If A&M had to open its against Louisiana State in Rouge, the story would be ent. All the pressure would til ting there waiting for theA( in an opener against an arckl thirsting for revenge Instead, the Aggies havet enjoying the warmth of the( fornia sun, taking in a few rids Disneyland and putting enough time aside to prepari tonight's game.
