The Michigan Daily, by AdatBaen son Doily Football Writer Tuesday, November 7, 1989 Page~ Illini loser If not sniffing Roses on the West cdast, Michigan coach Bo Schembechler might spend his New Year's Day rgpping Orange Juice. At least :hat's the hope of the Flbrida Citrus Bowl. The Orlando, Flbrida-based bowl has chased the Wolverines since the start of the seasonAt. next .week's Michigan- Illinois game, Citrus Bowl representatives will find out if their numerous trips to Ann Arbor have been worth their time. "Michigan has a great tradition," said Citrus Bowl selection committee member Mark Whitehead, in Apn Arbor for last weekend's game with Purdue. "Bo Schembechler is an institution in himself. They win and they bring a lot of fans, they're perfect. A 9-2 Michigan would be about as good as you can do in a Bowl matchup. But I'm sure that if they don't go to the Rose Bowl they'll have other *ptions too, maybe the Cotton or Sugar Bowl." Michigan athletic director Jack Weidenbach would not comment on the Wolverines' interest in the bowl, but said that "the only bowl we are thinking about is the Rose Bowl." Of all the other bowls, the Citrus Bowl has been the most visible in the Michigan Stadium press box GAME SITE:; Orlando, Florida DATE: January 1, 1990 TELEVISION: ABC Sports 1989 RESULTS Clemson 13, Oklahoma 6 1990 PAYOFF: $2.4 million dollars often sending out two selection committee representatives, passing out fliers plugging the strengths ofl their game, and making a point of congratulating Schembechler after a win. Of course the more wins Michigan gets, the closer they get to Pasadena. Another Big Ten team could fill in for Michigan if the Wolverines can not take the Orlando invitation. "We are very hopeful that we will be in the running for the runner upt may g( in the Big Ten," Whitehead said. "We've been (following Michigan) every week. Michigan is right at the top (of our list). At this point, our goal is to get the top-ranked teams available. I think the Big Ten runner-up, whether it be Michigan, Illinois, or Ohio State would be very highly ranked in the polls and would be a great draw for our bowl." Whitehead is also wary that another January 1st classic will steal the Wolverines away. His heaviest competition may come from intrastate rivals, such as the Hall of Fame Bowl in Tampa and Miami's Orange Bowl. That's right, the Orange Bowl. While the rest of America has Notre Dame inked in as the opponent for Big Eight champion Colorado, the matchup can be erased faster than a sweeping Hurricane. The Orange Bowl selection committee will have to make a risky decision before knowing the outcome of the Notre Dame-Miami matchup. "I don't think we'll be able to wait for that game," said Harper Davison, a 'member of the Orange Bowl selection committee. "We've rolled the dice before, sometimes we've been lucky, sometimes were not." The Orange Bowl could also lose the Irish to the Sugar Bowl, which may have undefeated Alabama as a representative of the Southeastern Conference. "At this time of the year, we really don't know what is going to happen," Davison said. "We try to look at a number of possibilities. If the co-champions of the Big Ten would be available, we would be interested. We have to maintain our contacts, even though I can't say that (Michigan) is our number one choice, and we are not their number one choice. That could change, depending on what happens." While the Rose, Orange, Sugar and Cotton Bowls all have agreements with conferences to give bids to a particular conference champion, the Fiesta and Hall of Fame Bowls do not, and for this year, neither does the Citrus, which normally gives an automatic bid to the champion of the Atlantic Coast Conference. "Our ACC deal was a four-year deal," Whitehead said. "Every other year is an option year for us, and this is an option year. So we are not committed or tied to ACC this year. That doesn't mean we won't have them, but we are back to trying to get the two highest ranked teams available. If the ACC happens to be in there, that would be great, but we are not obligated." south Redshirt frosh Desmond Howard caught this Michael Taylor pass, good for eight yards and a touchdown in Saturday's game against Purdue. Howard also rushed once for 13 yards. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.b 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

"The first one was a missed block. The second one was misinformation. If there's a third one, someone's going to get it," Schembechler said. "But we'd better get that cleaned up." The only two times Schembechler has not beaten the Illini (7-1,5-0) were games played in Champaign: a 3-3 tie in 1985 and a 16-6 loss in 1983. The 1983 game was the last time both teams entered the matchup undefeated in conference play. But Schembechler would rather play against the top Big Ten teams than muddle through supposed "easy" victories. "I'd ten times rather have a game like this than what we went through last week," Schembechler said. "This will be a fun week of preparation, it will be like the Michigan State week was." "It's a lot more fun preparing for a game that means so much. It doesn't get old... you get a little more jacked up." What should "jack up" Schembechler even more is a chance to coach against John Mackovic, who, like Schembechler, hails from Barberton, Ohio. Mackovic was a graduate assistant on Schembechler's first staff at Miami (Ohio). "I've always followed his career, I'm very fond of him," Schembechler said. "I'm happy for him, if he finishes second." What could prevent Illinois from finishing second are a tough defense, which ranks among the top in the country, and junior quarterback Jeff George, who has completed over 60 percent of his passes.
