Dungy admits that "it means
something to me-tI heard about
it all the time while I was
growing up."
To most of the rest of the
Minnesota players, the Jug will
mean very little. Michigan has
won the last eight games in the
series, and Minnesota has not
won in Ann Arbor since 1962.
Nevertheless, in last year's
contest Michigan had to come
from behind for a 28-21 win.
Dungy says of the game: "Our
.game plan worked-we only
made two mistakes but that
turned out to be one too many."
"I hope that we can come
back and do a good job. Last
time we played at Michigan we

we can do."

said Stoll. "It was the thing
and it made headlines on Jug

"Mommy! Mommy!" little Woodrow came home crying,
"Glenn told me that there were no such thing as the Daily
Libels!"
"Oh, 'poor baby," Woodrow's mother said, caressing the small
boy. "I swear, that Glenn would do anything to upset you!"
"But Mommy," Woodrow said with pleading eyes. "Are there
really Daily Libels-undefeatable and devine?"
"Why of course there are!" she answered. "I tell you what.
