a AV -W UI -W 9I 4 - The Michigan Daily - FOOTBALL SATURDAY - October 14, 2000 * BIG TEN AROUND ThE 1ORN Spreads clash in showcase game By Chris Duprey Daily Sports Editor What's the game of the week in the Big Ten? Surprise. It's at Ryan Field in Evanston. Purdue travels to Northwestern in a contest that is crucial if the Boilermakers are to assert themselves in the conference race. A trip to Madison still looms for Purdue, a challenge regardless of Wisconsin's record. And Ohio State visits West Lafayette on Oct. 28. So a second loss would be devastating to Purdue's title hopes - and wipe out a good bit of the momentum that was cre- ated with its win over Michigan. Much has been made of Northwestern's spread offense and no- huddle pace, but Damien Anderson has 1,050 yards and 13 touchdowns in five games - statistics that can't be ignored. "Northwestern hasn't had to beat any- one with the pass, they've been so suc- cessful in the run game," Purdue coach Joe Tiller said. "They throw the football effectively, which is more important than throwing it a lot." Tiller said there's a difference between his offense and Northwestern's. "It's very simple,"sTiller said. "Northwestern is run first, pass second and we're pass first, run second." Michigan State coach Bobby Williams said Big Ten coaches are going to have to adjust to the Wildcats' maverick style. "What's going to happen after the sea- son is people are going to look at what they're doing and try to give them some more bad plays," Williams said. GIVING MCCAvNNTHE BEUT: In des- perate need of a victory, Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz shook up his lineup for the Indiana game Sept. 30 and inserted red- shirt freshman Jon Beutjer for junior Kyle McCann at quarterback. The Hawkeyes fell short that day, 45- 33, but the move paid off this past week- end at home against Michigan State. Iowa broke a 13-game losing streak with a 21-16 comebacker over the Spartans. McCann has struggled throughout his career in Iowa City. He saw time as a freshman and a sophomore, but never staked his claim on the starting quarter- back position. He and senior Scott Mullen had rotated off and on until Ferentz' big move. "We wanted to try to be as through as we could be, before we made a move," Ferentz said. "We're just trying to give ourselves the best chance to win each and every week."

"The key thing is, he kept his chin up, he kept working." BuCKs EMERGE: Obviously, with an 2- 0 conference record, Ohio State is in con- trol of its own destiny, as far as the Big Ten championship race goes. But there's a quirk in the Big Ten com- posite schedule. Northwestern will not face Ohio State in 2000. That means a loss for either of those teams hurts more, because that game can't be made up by beating the other. Put another way, a loss for either means they have to scoreboard-watch. This week's challenge is Minnesota at Ohio Stadium. Junior-college transfer Travis Cole makes his first Big Ten start on the road for the Golden Gophers, after two in the Metrodome. Traditional wisdom suggests the Buckeyes will blitz the young quarter- back as much as possible on Saturday. And Ohio State coach John Cooper isn't one to shun this piece of wisdom. "I don't know if you can blitz any more than we're blitzing," Cooper said. "We'll have some blitzes, there's no question. We'll try to put pressure on him."

Gates, a bisexual, has been called a traitor becuase she is open to both male and female partners. "When we start discriminating against people in our own community we start break- ing apart. We are a house divided.. we can't do that," she said. Gates joined several speakers yester- day at the 9th annual National Coming Out Day Rally, held at Regents' Plaza. Katherine Severs, a Music Senior and coordinator of the rally, said she wanted to focus this rally on the upcoming political election. "We made it an effort this year to make it an extensively political rally in the sense of pro-activity," Severs said.

Interim SNRE Dean Barry Rabe said undergradu- ate programs will most likely be eliminated and SNRE will no longer accept new undergraduate applicants. A committee comprised of SNRE and LSA faculty is expected to submit a proposal for an environmental studies program that involves both schools by the end of this month. The proposal recommends "a meaning- ful partnership between LS&A and SNRE," offeringa centralized office, a director that reports to the deans of both schools, faculty from various schools, increased curriculum breadth and a joint LSAISNRE degree.
