0 SPORTS The Michigan Daily Thursday, November 12, 1981 Page 8 I Single coverage not enough for AC I ,s By BUDDY MOOREHOUSE For Minnesota and Illinois, it was a simple mistake in mathematics Neither team seemed to realize that Anthony Carter- plus one defender equals disaster. After receiving double and sometimes even triple coverage for the first seven games of this season, Carter looked across the line in Minneapolis two weeks ago and only saw one Gopher assigned to cover him. Minnesota's plan was to key on Michigan's potent rushing attack, which had been loading up on yardage all season* behind tailback Butch Woolfolk. JUDGING BY the numbers, alotting Carter only one defender should have been a safe bet. Entering the Min- nesota game, Wolverine quarterback Steve Smith had completed only 39.5 percent of his passes. And Carter, with half of each opposing secondary following him around the field, was averaging just 58 yards in receptions per game-hardly All-American credentials. But the Gophers soon learned that covering Carter one-on-one wasn't such a good idea. The skinny wide receiver burned the Minnesota defense for 154 yards and one touchdown on eight cat- ches in the 34-13 Michigan win. "It's been tough on me (drawing double coverage)", said the junior speedster. "Nine out of ten times this year, I've drawn double coverage." THEN LAST Saturday Illinois, disregarding the lesson of the previous week, also bunched its defense close to the line of scrimmage to stop the Wolverine ground attack and left Car- ter in a man-to-man situation. The result: 154 yards and two touchdowns on six catches in a 70-21 Blue win. in addition to his receiving statistics, car- ter also had 64 yards in punt returns, 82 on kick runbacks, and nine yards rushing, making it the finest all-around statistical day of his career. "I feel good that I get to do all those things," said Carter. "I just want to do anything to help the team." In the three seasons that Carter has worn a Michigan uniform, he has done quite a bit to help the team. The Riviera Beach, Fla. native already holds the school records for career touchdown catches (28), receiving yards (1,950), and kickoff return yards (1,096), as well as a Big Ten single- season mark with ii TD catches in con- ference games in 1980. CARTER'S performance as a Wolverine player has caused Michigan coach Bo Schembechler, normally quitehreserved when it comes to han- ding out priase, to hold nothing back when discussing the 5-11, 161-pound receiver. "You can always count on him," said Schembechler. "He's such a great competitor. Most kids that size won't compete like he does. He's got that look in his eyes, and you know he's competing. I couldn't visualize him being as great as he is." Carter's outstanding play . has also caused opposing players to pay extra- special attention to him. "Yeah, sometimes I feel like the other team is out to get me," said the soft-spoken education major. "There's always a little talk here and there across the line, but we're told not -to talk back. That's one thing I really like about Bo." Not only are defenses around the Big Ten out for Carter's hide, but some op- posing offensive players take their shots, as well. "All the talk I've heard has been about Number "1" (Carter)." said Steve Bryant, who wears that digit on his jersey for the Purdue Boiler- makers, Michigan's opposition this Saturday. "That gets me more pumped up for the game. This Saturday, we'll see who the real Number "1" is.'' BUT ALL OF the attention from op- ponents, media, and fans doesn't seem to fit the shy, unassuming wide receiver. "I'm a very quiet person, and I like to be left alone," said Carter. "It's hard with people staring at me when I walk around campus. I try to avoid that."- "He's got a heckuva sense of humor, but he's not going to be an effervescent, talkative guy," said Schembechler. "He's probably nore concerned with his teammates than any other player on the team." Wolverine fullback Stanley Edwards agreed with the coach, citing an exam- ple of Carter's unselfishness. "The backup flanker to Anthony Carter last year was Kenney Gear," explained Edwards. "When we went to Madison, Wisconsin last year, which is Kenney's. home town, Anthony faked an injury so Kenney could play in front of his paren- ts. Bo wasn't about to put him in because the game was tight for awhile. Everybody wouldn't have done something like that, but that's just the type of individual he is." WHILE A career in the Nationale Football League certainly appears to be in Carter's future, he is only concer- ned now with the rest of the 1981 season. "Our next two games are going to be very tough," he said. "We've got one w here and one on the road, and both teams are good." If Purdue and Ohio State have lear- ned anything from the mistakes of others, there will be more than one defender keeping Anthony Carter com- pany during the next two Saturday af- ternoons. M.C.A.T.

If the Boilermakers are to go travelling over the holidays, they must rely on the big gun in their offensive ar- sonal. The big gun, of course, is sophomore- quarterback, Scott Campbell, who has more than filled the shoes vacated by Mark Herrmann. "GOING INTO the season, I really didn't know what to expect," admits Campbell. "Actually, I think the season has gone better for me, per- sonally, than I thought it would." Following in the footsteps of an All- American quarterback can be an ex- tremely difficult task, even for the most precocious of players, but Campbell is taking it all in stride. I knew that's who everyone would be comparing me to at the beginning of the season, but I really didn't think about it Tickets at PTP 764-0450 Featuring Guest Actor HARVEY VERNON T T c j T T T T T i ti c cR> t c c"} cs < i ficiency before running into trouble against Iowa last week. Two weeks ago against Ohio State, Campbell 'was nothing short of phenomenal. He completed 31 of 52 passes for 516 yards, all three figures setting new Purdue records. He also set a Boilermaker record for total of- fense with 477 yards in that game. By establishing himself as one of the premier signal-callers in the country so early in his career, much weight has been lifted from his shoulders., "I GUESS IF I wouldn't have per- formed, I would have heard 'oh, we'll never have another guy like Herr- mann'," Campbell said. "But since I've done my job, I'm not hearing that." Indeed, what Campbell has been hearing has been a great deal of praise. Nevertheless, he feels he has-a lot of room for improvement. "I think I can improve on everything," the Hershey, Penn. native said. "I think sometimes I run out of the pocket when I don't need to, to try and avoid the sack. I've also got to learn to throw the ball away sometimes or to hit my alternate receivers a little better." AS FAR AS the team as a Whole is concerned, Campbell spelled out the key to continued success in one word-con- sistency. 'We have to be consistent throughout the whole game without any major breakdowns," he emphasizes. "I think the mental aspect of it is probably the Thcyrc He attack main thing, because we get outselves going and then we let down mentally, and that's why we don't move the ball. We have to work on staying mentally alert." In additional to staying mentally alert, Campbell also cites some other factors which will be necessary in order to keep the team's bowl hopes alive. "I think we're going to have to be very hard-hitting, play with great in- tensity, great effort and prevent tur- novers," he adds. "If we do that, I think we'll be alright." Scott Campbell has definitely been "alright" as far as Boilermaker fans are concerned this year. His performance has helped smooth over the disappoin- tment of Purdue's unsuccessful Big Ten title bid and started the fans thinking about his two remaining years in the gold and black.
