They had blown out Illinois to the tune of 45-14 the week before, but yielded 545 yards in total of- fense in the process. Quite simply, Wolverine watchers were not yet cer- tain whether the 1980 defense met the usual standards. The Wolverine defenders promptly silenced their doubters with a 35-0 shutout of Indiana that day, and op- ponents managed only three points against Michigan over the next three games. IT IS EARLIER in the season, but for Bo Schembechler and his football team, it can never be too soon to quiet the skeptics. And that is exactly what Michigan will try to do today at 1:30 p.m. in Indiana's Memorial Stadium. The Wolverines (2-1) find themselves in a must-win situation which most likely will endure throughout the remaining eight weeks, courtesy of their opening loss to Wisconsin. In fact, a glance at the Big Ten standings finds Michigan looking up at Indiana, which almost dropped its opener to the door- mat Northwestern Wildcats 21-20. Since then the Hoosiers have lost twice, 21-0 to Southern California and 21-7 to Syracuse,to bring their slate to 1-2. The Indiana defense was able to keep the Trojans off the scoreboard un- til well into the third period of that game, though, a fact that was not lost on Schembechler. "INDIANA'S TEAM is playing solid defense," said Bo, who has won all eight contests versus the Hoosiers while at Michigan. "That unit held USC scoreless for nearly three quarters. I think that speaks very highly of their ability." Fortunately for Bo, he will have available to attack that defense the services of wide receiver Anthony Car- ter, who suffered a sprained ankle in the Navy game last weekend. Several other Wolverines have suffered injuries this young season and two starters, left guard Stefan Humpries (strained knee tendons) and cornerback Brian Car- penter (sprained ankle) did not make the trip to Bloomington. The Hoosier offense has not scored a touchdown since the second quarter of its first game (the lone TD versus Syracuse was a kick return). It is not completely bereft of weapons, however, as sophomore Duane Gunn, who ran back the kick 97 yards and has pass receptions of 55 and 52 yards to his credit, is starting to draw comparisons with Michigan's quintessential big-play man. "THEY BOTH HAVE unlimited natural ability," Hoosier coach Lee Corso said. "Gunn probably doesn't have Carter's pure speed, but he may have a little more elusiveness. But Carter has been doing it for three years and Duane is just starting out." Corso has a simple explanation for the lack of effective punch beyond Gunn. "We lost ninety percent of our running game and 85% of our passing game." Corso is referring to the graduation of runners Mike Harkrader, Lonnie John-n son, Jerry Bowers and Al Darring, a foursome which churned out 1786 of In- dian&'s 2279 yards in 1980, and quarter- back Tim Clifford, the Big Ten'smost valuable player two years ago. THE HOOSIERS WERE looking for Kevin Burke to fill part of the gap at - tailback, but his tragic death from leukemia in July further weakened the running game, which is only notching 3.7 yards per carry. Junior Babe Laufenberg has com- pleted 38 of 56 passes for 430 yards and one touchdown as Clifford's successor. A big target for Laufenberg is senior tight end Bob Stephenson (6'3"-235), who has caught 75 passes in the past two years. Despite the effectiveness of his defense, Corso is wary of Michigan's potential on the attack. "This is just a great football team," Corso said. "They have massive, quick people upfront and a lot of qualtiy backs. You could talk about (Butch) Woolfolk, but if you remember it was (Lawrence) Ricks who came in last year and ripped us up (123)." Carter .. ankle OK BIG 10 PREVIEW: buckeyes host tough Florida St. THE LINEUPS [IGAN IND OFFENSE' MICH lIANA By JOHN KERR t\ The days of other conferences knocking the Big Ten around the gridiron appear to be over. With seven victories in nine games against non-conference opponents last weekend, the Big Ten upped its record to 13-7 against outside foes. With only two non-conference games remaining, the Big Ten is insured of its best non-league per- formance since 1963. THE VICTORIES have not been at the expense of pushovers, either. Independent power Notre Dame has fallen prey to both Michigan and Purdue, while Pac-10 member Stanford lost to both Ohio State and Purdue. Iowa, not usually cohsidered anational power, has whipped Nebraska and UCLA. But this week, eight of the conference teams-all but Michigan State and Ohio State-must focus on inter-league play. The seventh-ranked Buckeyes (3-0) go into today's con- test with Florida State looking to post another impressive Big Ten victory over a tough, non-conference opponent. Florida State has been ranked in the Top Twenty at various times this season and sports a 1-1 record. While not possessing the ex- plosive passing offense that has been the mark of past Seminole squads, this Florida State team will still provide a tough test for the Buckeyes. Much of the Seminoles' fate will be determined by their defense, -which has the formidable task of stopping Buckeye quarterback Art Schlichter and tailback Tim Spencer. Spencer is the Big Ten's second leading rusher, averaging 118.7 yards a game. In the other non-league contest Michigan State (1-2) will try to hand Notre Dame'(1-2) its third straight loss at the hands of Big Ten teams. Notre Dame's rookie head coach Gerry Faust can ill-afford to lose three straight and Michigan State is looking to knock off a big team. The Spartans registered their first victory of the season last'week in an unimpressive 10-7 win over Bowling Green. The Irish secon- dary, however, will be in for a workout from the Michigan her State passing offense. The Spartans lead the Big Ten in passing, averaging 221.7 yards a game. But one glaring weakness in the Spartan offensive attack is the running game. Michigan State has gained only 81 yards per contest on the ground this year. In order to upset the Irish, Michigan State must not only continue to pass effectively, but also establish some sort of running game. IN AN IMPORTANT conference matchup, Minnesota (3-0) will travel to Illinois (2-1). Since both are 1-0 in the conferen- ce, a share of first place is guaranteed for the victor. If the Golden Gophers can come away with a win it will be the first time since 1960 that Minnesota has won its first four contests. The Gophers will pit their rushing attack, tops in the con- ference with 235.7 yards a game, against Illinois' rushing defense, currently second in the league. In contrast, Min- nesota must find some way to slow down the Illini's passing attack. Illinois quarterback Tony Eason has completed over 60% of his passes this year. However, Minnesota quarterback Mike Hohensee is definitely no slouch as he leads the con- ference in passing efficiency. At Madison this weekend the Badgers (2-1) and the Purdue Boilermakers (2-1) will be featured in a televised contest. This marks the first time that Wisconsin will be shown on the tube since 1974. The Badgers will have their hands full, however, trying to control Purdue quarterback Scott Cam- pbell and his favorite receiver, Steve Bryant. Bryant leads the Big Ten in receptions with 4.7 a game. Purdue could be in for an emotional letdown after last week's thrilling 15-14 up- set of Notre Dame, and playing in Madison is always tough, as Michigan found out earlier in the year. Wisconsin will also be looking to hold on to a share of first place in the Big Ten, while Purdue is hoping to register its first conference vic- tory. In what seems to be the only mismatch of the day, 18th ranked Iowa (2-1) will travel to Northwestern (0-3). The Wildcats have lost 23 straight games, while the Hawkeyes are fresh off a 20-7 upset over UCLA. The Northwestern of- fense, worst in the league, will have to work miracles to move the ball against Iowa, the Big Ten's leading defense, (82) Norm Betts ..............

"No, I think I gave up running.' "YEAH, AND I think you used to be skinny, too." Lambda Chi Alpha member Don Compton was not being intentionally obnoxious. It was late yesterday after- noon and he and his fraternity were still trying to enlist over 50 runners for tomorrow's Second Annual Lamda Chi Alpha Road and Fun Race. As the preparations for the race come to a close, the Greek organization can boast of a tremendous increase in par- ticipants from last years race. In that outing, only 85 people ran in the 7.3 mile event. This year the chapter has already accepted applications from 125 runners for the 7.3 mile affair, and another 150 people have signed up to compete in the Fun Run. THIS IS the first year for the Fun Run, a two-mile race. "We put in the race to let more participation from sorority girls," reported Lamda Chi Alpha president Gregg Averill. Any person wishing to compete in the race can still sign up by going to the fraternity at 1601 Washtenaw by 10 a.m. tomorrow with a $9.00 entry fee. All proceeds from the race will go to benefit the C.S. Mott Children's Hospital. Prospective runners should be war- ned that the race is not an easy one. "The course is very tough and hilly," said Peter Kelly who participated in the race last year. Since last year's winner, law school student Paul Denis, has yet to register for the event, it appears that the favorite is now Dave Lewis. Lewis was the captain of the cross country team last year and finished fifth in the Big Ten Championships in 1980. Anyone who enters either race will receive a T-shirt donated by, Stroh's beer and be eligible to draw for prizes courtesy of Moe's Sport Shops. ui U.S. POSTAL SERVICE STATEMENT OF OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT AND CIRCULATION ' - (~Required by 39 U S.C. 3685) I TITLE OF PUBLICATION A ' .!(AIIONnT2 DATE OF FILING Plie Nichigan Daily vctoL P 1, 19811 3 FREOUENCY OF ISSUE A NO.
