quad which ended up seventh in

Gridiron scholars' naturally were
hesitant about Wisconsin's chances
of ever matching that mark
against tough Big Ten competi-
ion.
Fate Again
However, as Fate would have it,
and Fate seems to be having a
winning season in reversing the
best of predictions, Milt Bruhn's
Badgers already have racked up
two conference victories against
one loss and are actually in a
position whereby they conceivably
could tie for or win the title.
How's that for openers?
Bruhn, ten-year veteran of the
Big Ten coaching ranks, is the
type of guy who doesn't like losing,
even when he's tabbed as a hope-
ess underdog. Witness his 51-38
career record and only three sec-
ond-division conference finishes.
So the former Minnesota grid-
der began putting together the
pieces of the jigsaw puzzle. His
best bet seemed to be emphasis on
the defense with ten defensive
players among the returnees.
Mammoth Line
And what Wisconsin lacked in:
experience, itacompensated for in
size. Left tackle Bill Maselter
weighed in at 244 pounds, and he
anchored a hefty defensive line-
a line which will outweigh Mich-
igan this week by 16 pounds per
man.
In last week's game with Ohio
State, which defensive backfield
coach Don Dufek scouted for
Michigan, the Badger defense-gave
an indication of its capabilities.
"Twice the offense relinquished
the ball in very poor field posi-
tion-deep in Wisconsin territory,
and twice the defense held Ohio
State," praised Dufek.
Some of the other "big guys" up
front include Mike London, 6'2",
233 pounds; Tom Domres, 62",
229 pounds; Eric Rice, 6'4%A", 217
tion, with 13 pass interceptions
on his record.
On the receiving end of his:
tosses have been two sophs, Den-
nis Lager and Bill Fritz, and sen-
ior Lou Jung. All three are tied
for the team lead in scoring with!
12 points each.

THROUGH A GAPING HOLE Carl Ward churns out key yardage
against California. Michigan blockers cleared a wide path for
Ward, but face a stern test this Saturday when they encounter
Wisconsin's mammoth defensive line, which averages over 220
pounds.

apiece, while Fritz, deceptively
fast at 225 pounds, has grabbed
17. The entirerconglomeration of
Badger receivers have combined
for an average gain of 9.3 yards
per play.
Aerial Emphasis}
Wisconsin started the campaign
with a lopsided concentration on
the aerial end of the game, there-
by losing the effectiveness of a
balanced attack. "The offensive
backs were used mainly for block-
ing and the defensive line was
falling back to cover the passes,"
commented Dufek.
"Against Northwestern, though,
the Badgers tried a more potent
running game with quite a bit of
success, evidenced by their 21-7
triumph."
Tom Jankowski, junior fullback,
has carried the brunt of the rush-
ing assignments with 193 yards
on 50 carries. Dufek describes him
as a "powerful runner, although
not especially fast."
Giving him support has been
Tom Schinke, another sophomore,
who has carried the pigskin 32
times for a net yardage of 102.
I-Formation
' Wisconsin also uses an I-for-
mation in which the flankerback
drops back for the handoff," ex-
plained Dufek. Jesse Kaye has
been employed as the ground-
gainer in this pattern.
The Badgers have little to offer
in their kicking game, with only
one field goal *to their credit all
season. Kaye has booted six of
seven attempts through the up-
rights in P.A.T's, however.

"When they run out on the field
before gametime, they look real
impressive," said Dufek. "They're
big enough to be pros."
Pilfering Secondary
In the defensive secondary the
Badgers are led by team captain
Dave Fronek, a senior who plays
right safety. Fronek has snagged
four enemy aerials this season in-
cluding one which he ran back
for 66 yards. In addition, he also
handles punting chores. Dufek
rates him as "a fine leader, com-
petent in his role of protecting
against pass plays."
The Wisconsin backfield has in-
tercepted a total of- 12 tosses in
six games.
But the Badgers are not with-

out their share of problems. A
nistake-prone offense hindered by
njuries and inexperience (sounds
amiliar?) has been the thorn in
he side of Bruhn and his crew.
"Wisconsin has a young team,"
xplained Dufek, "and their quar-
terback '~and two of the ends are
sophomores."
Redshirt QB
Doing the signal calling has
been Chuck Burt, a "redshirt" who
ias a status of sophomore on the
gridiron, but who practiced with
the varsity last year. A bout with
mononucleosis shelved him before
he had an opportunity to see any
game action.
According to Dufek, "Burt is a
scrambler and a fine passer who
throws a lot and is becoming skill-
ed at the option roll-out play."
This season he has completed
82 passes in 171 attempts for 759
yards and four touchdowns-not
exactly sending out smoke signals
to the pro scouts but still a threat.
His chief nemisis has been the
defensive backfield of the opposi-

GRID SELECTIONS b
For all you sadists, we saved this interesting sidelight from the
Associated Press: "Ken Love, sports writer for the Olathe, Kan., News
has been hung in effigy for making a wrong football prediction. Last,
week, he picked Edgerton, Kan., High School to lose its game to
Linwood, Kan. Edgerton won, 26-20, and an effigy' of Love was
hung in the small northwest Kansas town over the weekend."
Now, we still urge you to enter our famed grid picks contest,
but we must institute one restriction: anyone caught hanging Lloyd
Graff in effigy (or even in Ann Arbor) will be disqualified from
winning the two free tickets to the Michigan Theater, currently,
showing "The Ipcress File."
If you can control your sanguinary tendencies, you may pick
up an entry blank at the Daily, 420 Maynard Street. They must be
entered by midnight Friday. r

The Bullets,led jby Walt Bel-
lamy's 10 points, jumped to an
early 29-17 lead. After Detroit
cut the gap to 34-27 in the sec-
ond period, Ohl and Wayne High-
tower cut loose with 10 and seven
points, respectively, to lift Balti-
more into a 62-48 halftime com-
mand.
The Pistons, playing without
guard Rod Thorn, suffering from
an ankle .injury, and getting little
service from player-Coach Dave
DeBusschere and Ray Scott,
bothered by thigh and shoulder'
ailments, came' through with the
first two points of the second half
before Ohl hit two quick baskets
and killed any Detroit hopes.
Inept free throw shooting didn't
help the Pistons, who went down
to . their third defeat in four
games. They made only one of
their first 14 from the charity
line and wound up the game with
20 successes in 40 attempts.

ing Nick Pietrosante as starting
fullback and replacing him with
Amos Marsh.
The Lions' boss, disturbed over
three straight defeats, made both
moves yesterday-taking opt Plum
for the Los Angeles Rams' game
next Sunday and replacing him
with newcomer George Izo, a five-
year National Football League
veteran.
Gilmer said he had decided to
give Plum a rest and "see what
Izo can do." Izo, former Notre
Dame player, was obtained from
the Washington Redskins this
year in a trade.
In his NFL career Izo, 27, has
been mostly a spare quarterback.
The benching of Plum was one of
numerous ups and downs for the
30-year-old veteran.
With the departure of Earl Mor-
rall to the New York Giants, it
had been assumed Plum had the
signal calling job for Detroit a'
cinch to himself.
Marsh's replacement of Pietro-
sante registered as a surprise, too.
But after the crushing 38-10 de-
feat from the Chicago Bears any
thing might have happened.
