Fiesta Bowl Tickets On Sale Dec. 2-4 'M' Ticket Office SPORTS Men's Basketball vs. Tennessee Tonight, 7:30 p.m. Crisler Arena The Michigan Daily Monday, December 2, 1985 page9 Cagers face veteran Volunteer squad By BARB McQUADE Away from the limelight of national television and the psychological effec- ts of facing the country's number one team, perhaps the Michigan basket- 'ball team can play like the offensive force we've all read about. The Wolverines host Tennessee (1- 0) tonight at Crisler Arena at 7:30 pim. And while their opponent may be no Georgia Tech, Michigan will need more balanced scoring than Saturday's one-man show by Antoine, Joubert to win. WOLVERINE HEAD coach Bill Frieder has said his team relies on points from the big men. "Our front line has problems scoring and that really concerns me," Frieder said. "We have to develop more consistency in our front line if we're going to be a great team." The 3-0 Wolverines can consider themselves lucky to have escaped with an undefeated record in the young season. BUT IF THE Wolverines' shooting is a question, so is the status of the Volunteers. Prognosticators have them ranked anywhere from 16th in the nation to seventh in the Southeastern Conference. Head coach Don DeVoe sees four starters return from the 1984-85 Ten- nessee team that finished third in the National Invitation Tournament with a 22-15 record. And Frieder knows about those former NIT stan- douts. Devoe's team beat Southeastern Louisiana, 88-70, in its only game this year. BUT WITHOUT last year's motivator on offense, guard Micael Brooks (17 points per game) the Volunteers may be asking for trouble at Crisler. The determining factor in Ten- nessee's success this season isT6-11 freshman Doug Roth. The high school All-American center is highly touted as a powerful rebounder. DeVoe's biggest challenge is getting Roth to go to the basket when he gets the ball. The eighth-year head coach says he wants his center to shoot the ball and to keep on shooting. "HE'S A GIFTED scorer," DeVoe said. "We'll be a better team because he's on it." Michigan won't have to worry about the Knoxville native when they're moving the ball, though. "He's not so gifted at the other end of the court," the Tennessee head man said, "He's a good rebounder," but he's not that good blocking shots when he had to move to stop a drive toward the basket." The Volunteers' only other threat under the boards is 6-7 Rob Jones. The senior pulled down 8.6 caroms as a center last season, along with 12.4 points. With Roth aboard, he moves into the power forward slot. "We don't have the luxury of moving him from the basket," DeVoe said. "He's a low post player. He doesn't shoot the ball well from the perimeter. His shooting leaves a lot to SCORES NFL Denver 31, Pittsburgh 23 Cincinnati 45, Houston 27 Minnesota 28, Philadelphia 23 New England 38, Indianapolis 31 Seattle 24, Kansas City 6 San Francisco 35, Washington 8 San Diego 40, Buffalo 7 Green Bay 21, Tampa Bay0 Cleveland 35, New York Giants 33 LA Raiders 34, Atlanta 24 (I Where do you go Q"when yodrie hungry, hurried, looking to relax over drinks with friends or anxious to catch "the big game"?

Without Brooks, Tennessee's back- court spark will have to come from point guard Tony White. Nicknamed "The Wizard," White is pegged as a quick-moving playmaker with an ac- curate outside shot. The 6-2 junior averaged 15.9 points last year as shooting guard. Junior Fred Jenkins complements White with 10.1 points per game, and forward Anthony Richardson (11.1 p.p.g.) rounds out Tennessee's balan- ced scoring threat.

They tried switching personnel from line to line. They tried adapting to OSU's tiny rink by changing their .style of play. They tried using dif- nt players because of injuries. They even tried a game of musical goalies, changing netminders from period to period. ,'UNFORTUNATELY for the Wolverines, the end result was that the six-game road losing streak became an eight-game road losing ,streak. Michigan lost two hear- tbreaking games to the Buckeyes 4-2 Friday night and 6-5 Saturday. Needless to say, "disappointing" was the word of the day for the Wolverines. "I was disappointed in the outcome of both games," said Michigan head coach Red Berenson. "We're finding a way (on the road) to lose and they're finding a way to win." "IT'S VERY, very disappointing," said senior captain Frank Downing, who scored twice in Saturday's loss. "I know that we're better than that team (Ohio State)." * Falling behind 3-0 Friday night, Michigan fought back and cut the Ohio State lead to one on goals by Todd Carlile and Chris Seychel, the latter coming at 16:23 of the third period. The Wolverines failed to score .again, however, and Ohio Stae con- yerted on an empty net with three seconds left to make the final score 4- 2. THE BUCKEYES scored one goal in each of the first three periods, *coring on each of Michigan's three goalies. Tim Makris started the game, Mike Rossi played the second, and Bob Lindgren finished the con- ~test. Together they stopped 44 shots, compared to 24 by Ohio State's Bob Clutch play .during final minute keys lady cagers By JEFF RUSH Consistency often defines the dif- ference between winning and losing teams, and with two straight vic- Jories, the women's basketball team teems to be gaining some of that 4ought after consistency. After a 65-50 upset win over Western Michigan last Wednesday, the 'Wolverines turned around and shot down the Toledo Rockets yesteday af- ternoon before over 2000 fans at Toledo's Centennial Hall. And while Toledo was packing the hall, it was 'Michigan's precise shooting that won Krautsak. Outshot almost two to one, Michigan still managed to keep the game close. "I wanted our goalies to concentrate on one period," said Berenson of his strategy. "The goalies are going to have to be more of a factor." Following Friday's aborted Wolverine comeback, Ohio State gave birth to a successful comeback on Saturday. Falling behind 4-0 in the fir- st period, the Buckeyes stormed back, outscoring Michigan 5-1 in the second period and getting the game-winner by Darcy Gryba with 3:11 left. Beating Lindgren on a rebound off of OSU's Jeff Madill, Gryba scored only his fourth goal of the season, but made it count. MEANWHILE, the Wolverines hit the post three times, and could not convert at the end, even after getting a power play and pulling Lindgren with 1:18 to play. Such facts are not the stuff great wins are made of Ohio State, however, which was 1-5 at home, will take the home wins any way they come.
