The Citadel'
By The Associated Press
Ten-hut! Listen up: The Citadel
is not planning to just be cannon
fodder for South Carolina. The
"Bulldogs are coming to town to
win.
But Citadel coach Charlie
Taaffe is realistic. Taaffe knows
the military college is a heavy

with good reason.
The Bulldogs are NCAA Division
I-AA, the Gamecocks I-A.
That means South Carolina, which
is 4-1 and ranks No. 4 nationally
in defense, has a few more good
men than The Citadel (3-3).
History is also on South Carolina's
side. The Gamecocks have
won 24 out of the last 25 games
against The Citadel, including nine
straight by an average of 19 points.
The Citadel has not defeated the
Gamecocks since 1950 ? and it
has been 71 years since the Bulldogs
won in Columbia.
'This is a big football game for
us. Our guys look forward to it.
It's a challenge," Taaffe said. "One
of the things they learn at The Cit
^tadel is to accept responsibility and
handle challenges. i
"But... you have to be realistic
about the fact that you're competing
against a top 20, 25 football
team, a team that's probably going
to another big bowl," he said.
The Gamecocks are not ranked
in the top 25, but they have only
lost once ? to undefeated and
llth-ranked Georgia Tech ? and
are coming off one of their best offensive
performances ever.
South Carolina beat East Carolina
37-7 last week, rolling up
415 yards on the ground and 626
yards total offense ? 10 yards shy
of the school record set in 1985
against The Citadel.
South Carolina coach Sparky
Woods is worried the Bulldogs
may give his team a clinic of a different
type: how to run the wishbone,
which the Gamecocks haven't
seen this year.
The wishbone can level the
playing field for lesser teams by
allowing them to option off bigger
and better players instead of having
to try to block them.
"The wishbone definitely gives
a team a chance to beat a more talented
football team," Woods said.

"We must be very disciplined
against it. It can frustrate you as a
defense."
The Citadel is averaging 290.5
yards a game ? 222.7 on the
ground.
Bulldog quarterback Jack Douglas
has 423 yards on the ground
. arte' has also hit 25 of 48 \ sses for
372 yards and one TD along with
one interception.
The Bulldogs are likely to have
a hard time moving against the
Gamecocks, who are giving up just
232 yards a game.
