European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - September 16, 1989, Darmstadt, Hesse Saturday. September 16, -1989 the stars and stripes Page 25 Michigan s no. 1 worry Rice Ann Arbor. Mich. A there appears to be confusion about who will play whom in College foot Ball s Early season game of the year saturday 9 30 . On an to the schedule says second ranked Michigan will entertain no. 1 notre Dame. But to hear the wolverines coaches and players talk it sounds More like it will be Michigan against Tony Rice. Here is a Sample of what they re saying about the notre Dame quarterback he s the most dangerous quarterback in the Michigan coach to Schum Buchler. He s the threat Michigan assist ant coach Gary Moll or. Tony Rice is the Man who makes them Click. If Tony Rice does not have a Good Day. That takes a lot of their offence Michigan free safety Vada took Over the fighting Irish quarterback Job four games into the 1987 season when Terry Andrysiak broke a Collarbone. He has been there Ever since. Last season he rushed for 700 Yards the most Ever for a notre Dame quarterback and passed for 1,176 Yards and eight touchdowns. Rice started the 1989 season by leading notre Dame to a 36-13 Victory Over Virginia in the Pickol classic. The Triumph was so impressive it helped the Irish climb Over Michigan in the associated press poll. Against Virginia Rice rushed for 70 Yards including a 3-Yard to sprint and completed seven of 11 passes for 147 Yards. He has a Strong throwing Arm with a tremendous deep threat Schum Bechler said. He s a big kid with experience. He runs the option extremely Well. He s As dangerous a runner As Well probably play All year or that notre Dame has. The thing that makes it difficult now is that not Many teams run option football anymore so we Don t get much Chance to practice against it. Of All the Guys we play this year this will be the most difficult to notre Dame coach i loll helped Rice improve his passing skills by talking him into throwing darts. It May have helped my passing a Little even if it was Only Rice said. Holt is a master of football s mind games and he knows it s important for Rice to be mentally Tough. "1 hear people say he can t throw Well enough to be a great quarterback but i m More interested in his 16-2 record As a Holt said. That s what the wolverines smarting Over two straight losses to the Irish including a 19-17 defeat at South Bend last year have built their game plan around trying to Stop Rice. For example when Moll or was asked what he considered the key to Michigan s chances he replied containing to by when asked what he consid ered the key to notre Dame s chances Moll or said preventing us from containing Michigan quarterback Michael Taylor also is versa tile but be is neither As big. Fast or Strong As Rice. In addition. Taylor is frequently injured. He missed the first week of fall practice with a sore shoulder bul will Start saturday. Taylor is aware of the comparisons but does t think they re fair. They let Rice run the Ball he said. On our team the tailback and fullback do most of the run notre Dame the defending National Champion has a 13-Gamc winning Streak. The wolverines who won their final six games last year including a 22-14 Victory Over Southern California in the Rose bowl arc unbeaten in their last 10 games.
