"uate is abilities. Virginia had one of the
top defensive lines last year, which
caused so much havoc in opponent's
pockets', the Cavaliers led the nation in
interceptions.
The Wolverines are also relying on
an inexperienced coach. Lloyd Carr
hasn't led ateam since he was active in
high school football nearly two de-
cades ago. However, he is entering his
17th season with Michigan and knows
enrough to deflect attention from him-
self.
"This season isn't about Lloyd Carr,"
he said. "It's about our seniors having the
best season of their careers."
If it turns out not to be the best, it will
no doubt be the longest. With the game
scheduled for Aug. 26 at Michigan Sta-
dium, full workouts will begin Tuesday.
"We had opportunities to play these
games before, but we didn't because it
extended the season," Carr said. "But
this year we decided to do it because
we've got two weeks off (later in the
year)."
Carr said he wasn't worried about his
team being tired for its last three games
against Michigan State, Penn State and
Ohio State. "If anything (the Pigskin
Classic) will help us. We've gotthree big
games at the end. We need to be ready."
Lloyd Carr seems confident heading into the Pigskin Classic.

Michigan will be back.
The Wolverines aren't expected to
a whole lot this season. Preseason mag'
zines, experts and pollsters have tab
Michigan anywhere from 10th to 23rd n
tionally. No one has picked the Wolve
ines to win the Big Ten. Penn State a
Ohio State are the media's favorites no
Thank God. Last season, Michi
was not only a candidate for the nati
title, it was expected to win its first ch
pionship since 1948. So when Colorado
Michael Westbrook fell from the sky a
found a football in his arms, the fans, tl
media and maybe even the players all f
the 1994 season was lost.
There will be no such deflation
Michigan drops an early game this seaso
There will be no such pressure to win e
cry game. This will be a rebuilding year,
so everyone thinks.
Carr says the Wolverines "have no e
cuses," but they do. The coach has nev
had control of a college team before. T
quarterback, Scott Dreisbach, has nev
thrown a pass in a game. And prolif
rusher Tyrone Wheatley is a New Yo
Giant. Nothing should go right - but
will.
Michigan will be back.
Without the suffocating pressure th
has descended from the alumni tothef
at Michigan Stadium the past few year
the Wolverines will finally be able
breathe. Every win will be a victory, whi
before, comingouton top wasjustanoth
step to a higher goal. Players might act
ally be loose andhave a little fun.
They will have nothing to los
Dreisbach won't have to worry abo
making rookie mistakes and his ar
should be free to earn its keep. Tailbac
Tim Biakabutuka will take over
Wheatley,rmnning behind the trem
dons Wolverine line. Carr will be in tI
spotlight, but every good move he maki
will be praised.
These Wolverines aren't expected1
do anything, so they will be as dangerot
as ever. Michigan players still wear tI
winged helmet, no matterwhoiscoachir
and where they're ranked.
Relax. Michigan will beback.
