1iff hanger.
"It should be a heck of a ball
game," Coach Paul Dietzel said,
'a real wide open affair. Coach
Peterson has an aggressive,
hustling ball club. Since they found
a quarterback they look like thcy
always have."
The quarterback Dietzel was
referring to was sophomore Gary
Huff. Huff had not played a play
until the Florida game two weeks
ago. The 6-1, 185 19 year-old came
off the bench in that game with his
club behind 38-7 and promptly went
to work.
In the seven minutes remaining
in the game Huff hit 8-15 passes for
230 yards and three touchdowns.
"Well, I guess they won't be
redshirting me," was all Huff had
to say.
Cam Lewis, graduate assistant
in charge of the frosh offense,
scouted the Seminoles. "State had
early trouble finding a quar
terback," Lewis said. "And if Bill
Peterson doesn't have a good
quarterback he doesn't have a
good team.
"They were alternating bet
ween a junior and a senior and then
they put Huff in," Lewis continued.
"He's the starter now.
"They throw the ball like we do,"
Lewis said. "They have fine

They have a more balanced

The Gamecocks have made a
few changes in their lineup for the
non-conference clash. "We feel
that we have to play the boys that
are playing the best," Dietzel said.
"Our second team defensive
tackles have been playing as well
as the first," Dietzel said, "We feel
that Regalis (Joe) has been
playing better than Poston
(Jimmy) and deserves to start.
"Neville Files has been playing
fine ball at defensive back,"
Dietzel continued. "He's a real
hustler and we think he deserves to
start. He doesn't make many
mistakes.

Biddies use
schedule lull
to recuperate
Hurt unexpectly all night by a
stong N. C. State freshman running
attack, Carolina's football Biddies
did produce their best offensive
effort of the year in the 35-19 loss to
the Wolflets, running up 270 yards
total offense and all 19 of their
points in the second half.
The Biddies hope to utilize a lull
in their schedule to continue that
offensive improvement and also to
allow several injured players to
return to health and fulltime
playing duty again. The next
outing for the freshmen will be
against Georgia Tech in Atlanta on
Oct. 31.
The brightened Biddie offensive
outlook was counter-balanced by
their defensive units inability to
cope with an N. C. State running
attack that ran up 228 yards on the
ground and punched in three
scores from short range.
Hard running Willie Burden was
the chief culprit with 183 yards on
33 carries and the Biddies, who had
previously held two opponents to
an average of less than 100 yards
rushing, were also touched for
their first aerial score of the
season on a 26 yard halfback pass.
Trailing'14-0 at halftime, reserve
quarterback Robbie Davis led a
Biddie rally that featured starting
Biddie quarterback Marty
Woolbright seeing action at
flanker. Davis hit 13 of 24 passes
for 192 yards in the second stanza,
including a 70 yard bomb to wide
receiver Eddie Muldrow to close
the gap to 14-13 before the con
sistant Wolflet runners ground
their way to victory.
For the game, Davis was 16 of 35
attempts for 236 yards and two
scores and he also scampered four
yards on a bootleg play for the
other Biddie touchdown. The USC
running attack, which was held to
minus 11 yards in the opening half
by a unyeilding N. C. State line,
revived for 78 yards in the last two
quarters, led by fullback Richard
Waggoner's 52 yards in 8 attempts.
With the schedule breather
before meeting Georgia Tech, the
Biddies hope to obtain the services
of halfback Thad Rowe, their
leading rusher in the season's
opener and out since then with a
leg bruise. The return to full
strength from nagging leg injuries
by several players would also
enhance prospects for the depth
shy USC first-year-men.

Suggs
USC rr
It was just six years ago that
Dan Reeves became the first back
in Carolina's football history to
gain more than 3,000 yards in a
career.
Tommy Suggs, with five regular
season games remaining, has
become the first Gamecock to top
the 4,000 yard mark. In between
Reeves, who ran and passed for
3,376 yards during the 1962 through
'64 seasons, came Nlike Fair who
compliled 3,012 yavAs, 1965-67.
Prior to Reeves, USC's total
offense champion was halfback
Steve Wadiak, 1948-51, and all but
21 of his 2,899 yards were gained on
the ground.
In last Saturday's 21-15 upset
loss to Maryland, Suggs completed
20 passes for 294 yards and two
touchdowns. He was thrown for
losses totaling 28 yards by the
fierce Maryland rush but his 266
yards total offense for the game
raised his career total to 4,065
yards. He has passed for 3,896
yards and run for 165.
A couple more games as
productive, yardage-wise, as last
weekend and it's possible Suggs
could wind up his career with 5,000
yards.
In leading the Gamecocks to a 3
2-1 record so far, Suggs has
completed 73 of 151 passes for 1,010
yards and five touchdowns. Using
more of a drop back style than the
play-action, scrambling style of
'the past two seasons, his rushing
total has been nullified and he has

D)espite his team's loss to
Maryland last week USC head
coach Paul Dietzel does not feel the
Gamecocks are out of the ACC
race.
"Everyone is just getting in
down into the nitty-gritty," Dietzel
said. "There are too many people
that are even. Anytime you're in
your conference and take someone
lightly you're.going to get beat."
Duke is presently sitting atop the
ACC standings. The Blue Devils
have a 3-0 conference mark and a
4-2 overall record. Leo Hart, at one
time the nation's top passerthas
decided to bypass the laurels and
let his running game take care of
things.
North Carolina and Wake F"orest
are tied for second with 2-1
records. USC is third with a 2-1-1
record followed by Clemson at I-i

and Virginia 9-3.

a minus 22 yards there for a net
total offense of 968.
In addition to toping 4,000 total
yards, Suggs has become the first
Gamecock quarterback to pass for
more than 1,000 yards three years
in a row. John Gramling passed for
1,045 yards once, 1953, and Fair
had 1,049 yards through the air in
1965, ut Suggs is the only
Gameck to pass for more tha%
1,000 more than once.
Reeves never reached the 1,000
passing plateau, throwing for 930
yards in 1962 and 974 in 1964.
By throwing for two~touchdowns
against Maryland, Suggs raised
his career TD pass total to 25, five
of them this season. He has scored
four times himself, giving him a
touchdown responsibility total of
29, and a new school record. The
old record was 28, sot by Reeves.
By erasing that sole remaining
Reeves record, Suggs now holds
every South Carolina career, one
season and single game passing
and total offense record and has
nearly half a season to improve on
his marks.
By attempting 40 passes at
Maryland, he broke his own school
record of 37 attempted against
Florida State in 1968. And speaking
of Florida State, the little senior
quarterback from Lamar, will be
leading the Gamecocks against the
Seminoles Saturday night in
Carolina's Homecoming game at
'arolina Stadium. A sellout crowd
of more than 42,(X)0 is already
assured for the 7:30 P.M., kickoff.
