Miguel DeOliver, Tim Brewster and Rich Siler will rotate at tight end. Only one starter returns on the offensive line in the person of tackle Bob Stowe. On defense, the Illini's strength will be along the line. Returning defensive line starters include Mark Butkus, Dan Gregus, Don Thorp and Terry Cole. IN THE secondary, Illinois returns starters Charles Armstead, Dennis Bishop and Larry Mosely. The position that will see wholesale, changes this year will be linebacker since all three starters from last year have departed. White knows that his offense will be effective this year. He says that his defense must come through, though, if Illinois is to challenge for the conferen- ce crown. Should that happen, the joke will be on Lee Corso and the rest of the Big Ten. At that time, Mike White will be the only one laughing., -RON POLLACK 4. Minnesota Minnesota's Golden Gophers are finally coming in out of the cold-in more ways than one. This season the Gophers will be moving into the brand new 62,000-seat Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome and they may also be moving out of the cold and into the heat of the Big Ten race. LAST YEAR, Minnesota was the only team to defeat Big Ten co-champions Iowa and Ohio State and yet finished just 4-5 in the conference and 6-5 overall. This year, the Gophers return nine starters on defense as well as their entire offensive backfield, which is raising some hopes in Gopherland. "We think that when the whistle blows, the University of Minnesota can stand on the field with anybody in this conference and be able to play," said Minnesota head coach Joe Salem. "Watch out for Minnesota because I think we're going to be there." What has Salem the most excited is his offense, led by senior quarterback Mike Hohensee. "OUR OFFENSE is our strength en- tering 1982," said the fourth-year Gopher coach. "Our attack centers around the quarterback." And that is indeed a good choice around which to center it. Hohensee set Minnesota season records last year for most passes attempted (328), most passes completed (182), most yards passing (2,412) and most touchdown passes (20). "If we erase our mental mistakes-both offensively and defen- sively, we can do it," said Hohensee, a junior college transfer from California. THE GOPHERS' leading rusher of a year ago-senior fullback Frank Jacobs (636 yards)-returns, as does his running mate, sophomore tailback Tony Hunter. Opening holes for them will be senior center Ed Olson and returning guards Bill Humphries (6-3, 242) and Randy Rasmussen (6-2, 237). A major Gopher concern is deter- mining who will be catching the passes, that Hohensee is sure to be throwing. Top receiver Chester Cooper has graduated and the leading returning receiver is fullback Jacobs. As of spring drills, the starting receivers had still not been decided upon. Although the Gophers return nine starters from last year's defense, it is a questionable and unsettled corps. "We've moved some people around and we think the moves will help by get- ting more quickness into odr defensive unit," said Salem. It appears now that Minnesota will start a defensive line that includes seniors Kevin Kellin and Karl Mecklenburg at the tackles and senior Fred Orgas and junior Jimmie James at the ends. And if the Minnesota defen- se performs like the Gopher offense is expected to, the Gophers may indeed be basking in the warmth of the California sun come New Year's Day. -BOB WOJNOWSKI Th Wisconsin The Wisconsin Badgers got a few folks upset last season. The Badgers beat Michigan, Ohio State and Purdue last year, a feat of added significance considering Wisconsin hadn't defeated any of these three squads since 1975 when it eked out a 17-14 win over the Boilermakers. As a result, the Badgers are going to be facing three squads bent on revenge this season. So who are Wisconsin's fir- st three road games against this year? You guessed it: Michigan, Purdue and Ohio State. HAS ANYBODY got a white flag of surrender handy for Badger head coach Dave McClain and his squad? If you do, save it. McClain returns 15 starters from last season's 7-5 club. See CAMPBELL, Page 11 By BOB WOJNOWSKI If Michigan head coach Bo Schem- bechler thinks his Big Ten schedule is rough, wait until he sees the tough customers he's got waiting on this year's non-conference slate. Notre Dame and UCLA, a pair of teams that Michigan beat handily last season, will do battle with the Wolverines on successive weekends (Sept. 18 and Sept. 25), and rest assured that the Fighting Irish and the Bruins have not forgotten about last year's beatings. "THE MICHIGAN game will be an important one for us because we want to get off on the right foot after what happened to us last season," said second-year Notre Dame head coach Gerry Faust. Last season, the Irish came into Ann Arbor as the top-ranked team in the nation and left with a 25-7 pasting, the first loss of what would be a miserable 5-6 season. This year the game is in South Bend, it's the Irish season opener and it will be the first night game (9:00 p.m. EST) in the history of Notre Dame Stadium. All of which means that the Irish will be ready for Michigan. "We're all anxious to make amends for last season and I would expect that opening game to be a key one emotionally," understates Faust. "We know we will be playing a very good Michigan team-one that will be one of the favorites in the Big Ten. I don't think playing the game at night will have any effect on the outcome." Schembechler, meanwhile, realizes that his Wolverines have been apt to look past their oWn season opener and ahead to the Notre Dame game, and he promises that will not be the case this year. "I'VE BEEN burned on that before and I'm not gonna let it happen again," said Schembechler. "Two years ago we lost to Notre Dame (29-37), but then we won the title and the Rose Bowl and nobody remembers that we lost to Notre Dame." That doesn't mean that Schem- bechler isn't thinking about the Irish though. And the fact that Notre Dame returns 19 starters from last season's squad gives Schembechler plenty to think about. Leading the way for an Irish offense that returns its top nine ground gainers is senior tailback Phil Carter, who rushed for 727 yards last year. The quarterback will be junior Blair Kiel, who completed 44 percent of his passes for 936 yards. Kiel will be throwing primarily to senior tight end Tony Hun- ter and flanker Joe Howard: ON THE defensive side, the Irish return senior linebacker Mark Zavagnin and tackles Tim Marshall and Bob Clasby. Senior Dave Duerson heads an experienced Notre Dame secondary. The Bruins, meanwhile, return 15 starters from last year's 7-4-1 team that lost to Michigan in the Bluebonnet Bowl, 33-14. Leading the way will be senior quar- terback Tom Ramsey and top rusher Kevin Nelson (883 yards). Also retur- ning intact is the receiver combination of seniors Jojo Townsell (26 catches, 430 yards) and Cormac Carney (29 catches, 539 yards). Seniors Karl Morgan and Irv Eatman anchor what is expected to be an im- proved defensive line for the Bruins, who will be attempting to beat the Wolverines for the first time ever. Michigan has won all five previous en- counters. Oliver Williams UCLA TAILBACK Kevin Nelson rumbles for yardage i Nelson returns as the Bruins' top rusher, gaining 883 will visit Michigan Stadium Sept. 25.
