Special to The Gamecock
This year's college football season will be full
of excitement, much of which will come from
the top teams in the country going face to face
throughout the season.
Some of the early games such as Notre
Dame at Michigan will test how well the teams
have prepared during the off-season. Other

place at the end of the season when bowl
appearances and conference championships are
on the line.
Notre Dame will play at Michigan Sept. 11.
Oct. 2 will feature two outstanding games,
- Miami at Florida State and Notre Dame at
Stanford. On Nov. 20, Ohio State plays at
Michigan and USC plays at home against
Clemson.
Notre Dame enters the season ranked No. 7,
and Michigan begins the season ranked No. 3.
Coach Lou Holtz of Notre Dame will be relying
on either Paul Failla or Kevin McDougal to
fill the void left by the graduation of Rick
Mirer. Whoever wins the starting job will be
tested early by a stubborn Michigan defense
that was one of the toughest in the country in
1992.
Heisman trophy candidate Tyrone Wheatley
will be the focus of Michigan's offense, which

relies on running to control the game. The winner
of this game will have the inside track to a
possible national championship.
Oct. 2 will feature two of the top games of
the year. One of these games will be an
intrastate rivalry when No. 4 Miami will play
at No. 1 Florida State. This game has traditionally
brought out the best in both teams. If
Florida State is still No. 1, this game will prove
to be even more exciting for the fans.
As with Michigan, Florida State has a
Heisman trophy candidate in quarterback
Charlie Ward. If the game comes down to the
final seconds and Florida State is trailing,
Coach Bobby Bowden will turn to freshman
Scott Bentley, the nation's top kicking recruit
to win the game.
Miami will rely on a new starting quarterback,
Frank Costa, who takes over for Gino
Torretta. If, as in the past, Miami's repeated
first year quarterback success can carry the
team, Miami might be looking at an upset that
will turn both teams' seasons around.
The other big game on Oct. 2 has Notre
Dame traveling to Stanford. Stanford's defense
might be the key to this game because the team
lost most of the players from a defense that
was one of the nation's best in 1992.
However, Coach Bill Walsh has built a team
by recruiting some of the top high school players
in the country. Also, Walsh thrives on play

ing against the top teams, and he seems to
come up with his best plans for these games.
Notre Dame will be playing to avenge, 1992's
loss at home to the Cardinals.
Nov. 20 features two games that are also staples
of college football.
The first of these games showcases Ohio
State visiting Michigan. As usual, the Buckeyes
will rely on the quarterback position. Junior
Bob Hoying takes the snaps for the Scarlet and
Gray this year. If he can move the offense, the
defense should shoulder its responsibilities.
If Michigan gets by Notre Dame, the
Wolverines could enter this game undefeated
with roses in their eyes. However, the
Buckeyes will be looking to end a long drought
against Michigan.
Also on Nov. 20, USC will play at Clemson.
1992 was the first time USC defeated its arch
rivals since 1987. Clemson looks to rebound
from its first losing season since 1976, and
USC aims for its first bowl game in four years.
However, records can be thrown out the window
when these two teams face each other for
bragging rights of the state.
All of the games previewed here will provide
hours of excitement. Most of these games will
likely be the deciding factor to each team's
success. While there will be many exciting
games this season, these five should lead the
way.

Senior Writer fi(
Now that everyone (well, almost "
everyone) has been to their classes, at
I need to officially welcome all the Si
students and fans of Gamecock t,(
sports back to campus. It should be
an interesting fall here at USC and, M
of course, with a new school year h'
come new students. 31
Students who need to leant the 01
"ins and outs" of being a Gamecock i*1
fan. Luckily most experienced fans Si
will be glad to help the newer ones ft
with the traditions of Carolina. That
is where this piece of paper that R
you are holding becomes a factor.
For you new Gamecocks consider b
this your first lesson in being a tf
USC fan. Hopefully, this can help I
you enjoy your initial fall in e
Columbia. d
First things first. Tailgating. Over tl
the course of time, tailgating has g
become as much a part of USC P
football than the game itself. It is a t<
great way to meet new friends and g
to spend time with the old ones, ti
Not to mention indulging in some
of your favorite foods and bever- f
ages. e
Another tip is to wear comfort- t
able shoes. The majority of students v

tiis is, of course, the people who
tually make it to Williams-Brice

My third tip is to learn the Alma
later. Alright, so I haven't taken the
me to do it yet, and that is why 1

lat you aren't using anyway and
lemorize it.
Finally, don't be a "fair-weather
in". I'm not referring to sitting
trough a torrential downpour. What
am trying to say is that while
xpectations are high for this season,
te SEC is one tough conference anil
le Gamecocks may even lose a
ame. However, no matter what hapens,
if you continue to support your
sains here at USC, then you are
uaranteed of having an enjoyable
ime.
Most pdople around here are
riendly and accommodating and it is
asy to meet people to have a good
ime with. So take the next couple of
veeks to prepare yourself and you
oo can be a true Gamecock.
