There is a saying in college
football: "A tie is like having tc
kiss your sister."
Both USC and Virginia Tech
have been pondering over such a
kiss since last season's 17-17 tie.
Thic u/pelrenH hnth tfame will
A lliu T? W1VV11U) UVU1 LVUI11J TTIiJ
get the chance to break the deadlock
and end that year-long kiss.
The Gamecocks take to the road
for the first time this season as
they will play the Hokies ir
Blacksburg on Saturday.
"I'm very impressed with Virginia
Tech on both sides of the football,"
USC head coach Spark}
Woods said. "This will be our first
road trip and (it) poses a big challenge
for us."
If history repeats itself, the
Gamecocks will come out the victor
in Saturday's game. USC beat
Tech 40-10 in. 1987 following a
27-27 tie in 1986.
The Hokies are coming off a
24-23 victory over East Carolina
and enter Saturday's matchup with
a 2-1 record.
USC is coming off an idle week
and is 2-0 on the season.
"The open weekend should allow
us the opportunity to get some
of the injured players well,"
Woods said.
The time off allowed running
back Mike Dingle and offensive
guara Antoine Kivens 10 recover
from a concussion and a sprained
ankle, respectively.
Wide Reciever Carl Piatt (knee)
and offensive tackle Ike Harris
(ankle) are both questionable for
the game. Defensive back Erik Anderson
is out for most of the season
with an ankle injury.
Woods expects Tech to provide
a physical challenge to USC.
"As always, Virginia Tech has
another fine physical football
team," Woods said. "We left up

By The Associated Press
TOKYO ? Atlanta was
selected Tuesday as the site of the
tyyo Summer Games ? the 100th
birthday of the modern Games ?
in balloting by the International
Olympic Committee.
Atlanta edged Athens, Greece;
Belgrade, Yugoslavia; Manchester,
England; Melbourne, Australia and
Toronto, Canada.
The decision, read from a sealed
ballot by IOC president Juan Antonio
Samaranch, ended the hopes of
Athens to stage the '96 Games in
the country where the Olympics
were born in 776 B.C. and were
reincarnated in 1896.

made, the Atlanta representatives

Atlanta had entered the final t
days of the four-year contest gen- s
erally rated among the front- tl
runners. It received a boost in its
formal oresentation with a video- t
taped appeal by President Bush. I
Atlanta will be the third U.S. C
city to sponsor summer Olympics, /
following St. Louis in 1904 and
Los Angeles in 1932 and 1984. 1
It was the 1984 Games that 2
ushered in an era of unimagined I
money for the Olympics. The IOC c
announced last week that the
Olympic movement, which was al- c
most broke a decade ago, would c
make $1.84 billion in the four tl
years leading up to 1992. s
