Page 14-The Michigan Daily- Monday, October 1, 1990 ., * *------ - -- - ------ High Step Dying? The band played on again Saturday, debuting their cartoon show to the home fans after opening the season with the same show at Notre Dame. The Marching Band brought down the house with their little jig to the tune Under the Sea. The Jetsons, Peanuts' theme, and Bugs Bunny theme were also fan favorites. And do not slight the Maryland band, which used a big band genre. Rumors say the Wolverines will put on their own big band show later this year. If Maryland could have added a few bodies to their band, it could have been an exciting Battle of the Bands. NOTE: A problem could be arising. Some band members have buzzed the Band Corner Hotline to complain about the lack of high stepping, in the band's halftime performances. Word says band director Gary Lewis doesn't care too much for it and prefers the more subtle walking march. A phasing out of the high step is in the works. Some alumni have complained to various band members. Don't lose a Michigan tradition. The music and choreography is so much better this year. Don't lose the high step.

Lower Junior status is required, and graduate study is available. Stu- dents are directly enrolled in their colleges and receive transcripts from their Oxford college: this is NOT a program conducted by a U.S. College in Oxford. 3.2 minimum index in major required. An alternative program which is sponsored by a U.S. Univer- sity is available for students with minimum indexes of 2.7. Stu- dents will have social and athletic rights in an Oxford college, and the fees are substantially less. Many educators believe that the tutorial system of Oxford and Cambridge (in which one scholar teaches one or two stu- dents very intensively) provides a unique liberal arts education. Evaluations (writen or by telephone) from previous Oxford stu- dents from your college, or in your field, can usually be arranged by WISC.

Their first drive was ended when linebacker Martin Davis intercepted quarterback Scott Zolak's pass and returned it 27 yards for a touchdown. Later, with Michigan leading, 21-10, Maryland drove from their own 23 yard line to Michigan's 23 in the last two min- utes of the first half, only to have the march quashed by a Lance Dottin interception at the Wolverine 4 yard line. And when Maryland wasn't committing unforced turnovers, the Michigan defense lended some help. On one play in the third quarter, middle guard T.J. Osman screamed through the Terp's line, chased down Zolak from the blind side, sacked him, forced a fumble and recovered it himself at the Maryland 20 yard line. "Those turnovers helped us a great deal because it brought our de- fense closer together and gave our of- fense some points," senior free safety Tripp Welborne said. Indeed, for the first time this sea- son, Michigan's offense (ranked 7th in the nation coming into the game) and running game (4th) did not have its way with the opposing defense. Maryland outgained the Wolverines in total offense (422 yards to 352 yards) and possessed the bal five minutes longer than did Michigan. Tailback Jon Vaughn ran for 89 yards, or 200 less than last week. "Those 200 yard games are few and far between," Vaughn said. "I just want as many as it takes to win, and that's more important than lead- ing the country in rushing." Vaughn credited a Maryland de- fense that he described as not miss- ing any tackles, penetrating, and pursuing well. Skrepenak offered another inter- pretation: "They were guessing where we were running and flying there and it was working for them. "We (the line) just didn't put it all together as a group. We're going to take a little heat tomorrow and rightfully so. We've been getting a lot of the glory lately so it's only right that we take the heat for this performance." While Maryland was grounding Michigan's running game, it found its own as well. The Terps' one-back offense was expected to rely heavily on the pass, which it did, (Zolak at- tempted 45 passes for a school-record 29 completions) but also found suc- cess handing the ball off to tailback Troy Jackson. Jackson's 13 carries for 89 yards gave Moeller cause for concern with the Big Ten season-opener only a week away. "There's no way that team should have run like that on us," he said. "I don't like the way they ran against us and I don't like the way we ran. Those are the two things I'd like to change around." Said Welborne: "They have a great passing team and a great of- fense so they can move the ball against anybody. What you've got to 'do is not give up a lot of points and not give up big plays." Sure, Michigan Coulduv, Woul- duv and Shoulduv played more con- sistently Saturday. But, then again, they might Justuv been the better team. 0f Wolverine linebacker Martin Davis lumbers past a celebratory teammate into the endzone after intercepting a pass from Maryland quarterback Scott Zolak to give Michigan a 7-0 lead on the third play of the game. Turnovers Wolverines bury Terps under slew of fumbles, Interceptitons by Ryan Schreiber Daily Football Writer Through the entire season, turnovers have been the downfall of the Maryland offense. During the first four games of the year, the Terrapins turned the ball over 12 more times than their opponents. Six more against Michigan took them out of a close game and made the Wolverine victory seem like a romp. "They gave us too many opportunities and turnovers at the same time," Michigan coach Gary Moeller said. Maryland coach Joe Krivak agreed: "You turn the ball over against a team like Michigan, sooner or later they're going to make it. You don't make those kind of mistakes against a team of this caliber. When you do, you pay for it." Michigan wasted little time in recording its first of three interceptions on the day. On the second play of the game, linebacker Martin Davis stepped in front of a Scott Zolak pass and pranced 27 yards for the touch- down. Only 56 seconds had ticked off the clock. SCORE: Michigan 7, Maryland 0. With the Michigan offense unable to get anything going through the first 18 minutes of the game, Vada Murray came up with the Wolverines' second intercep- tion, which led to the second big play of the game. Murray slashed and cut his way for 34 yards through the Maryland offense, eventually falling at the Maryland 37 yard line. Then, Elvis Grbac connected with Desmond Howard on a bomb for the rest of the distance to the goal line. SCORE: Michigan 14, Maryland 3. Without even mustering much of an offense, the Wolverines had already opened up a sizeable lead. And when the Michigan offense came to life, Maryland seemed in desperate need of a score to close the gap be- fore the end of the half. Enter interception number three, turnover number four. On a timing pattern to the left corner, Lance Dottin stepped in front of the wide receiver, snatching away the Maryland hopes of a final, first-half score. Grbac snapped the ball from Michigan's own four yard line and downed it to exit the field. SCORE: Michigan 21, Maryland 10. The final nail in the coffin was turnover number five. Following a Michigan kickoff, the Terrapins were at their own 20 when disaster struck. T.J. Osman hit Zolak, knocked the ball out of his hands and fell on it at the Maryland seven yard line. "We wanted to run a sprint out," Krivak said. "We snapped the ball a little before our quarterback was ready, and he had the ball knocked out of his hand." While the Wolverines could only add a field goal, the damage had been done. Maryland would not score again. SCORE: Michigan 31, Maryland 17. To cap the day, Zolak fumbled again when Chris Hutchinson sacked him. The Maryland quarterback ex- ited the game after the next series, having been respon- sible for five of the six miscues on the day. "I think a lot of the things that happened to us of- fensively, you've got to be able to give Michigan some credit," Krivak said. "I said going in, the one thing that Maryland had to stop doing to be a good complete team was to eliminate the turnovers," Moeller said. "That's obviously the thing that killed them."
