Get on an to when they open at Home against Virginia. Since beating Nebraska in the Orange bowl the seminoles have been plagued by problems including the arrest of several play ers and the suspension of five others who accepted gifts from agents. But now the focus is Back on football and their bid to become the first team in 15 years to Wingback to Back championships. Their chances of repeating will depend largely on the play of Jun Kanell for quarterback Danny Kanell who will try to fill the huge void left by the departure of Heisman trophy Winner Charlie Ward. Kanell was sensational when he filled in for an injured Ward last year against Maryland throwing for 341 Yards and five touchdowns. Despite the loss of Ward Florida state has As much Talent As anyone in the country. Warrick Dunn aver aged 7.5 Yards per carry As a freshman and Kez Magor vey led the team with 74 receptions.

Stokes is Back at Urcla for his senior season. That s an exception to the unwritten Rule that College football s Best players turn pro before using up their eligibility. I did t come too close to leaving said Stokes a wide receiver who caught 82 passes for 1,181 Yards arid 17 touch Downs As a Junior and finished seventh in the Heisman trophy balloting. I Happy with my Urcla coach Terry Donahue and ruins quarterback Wayne Cook also Are delighted that 4 Tokes returned to the team although he Likely would have been chosen Early in the nil draft had retaken that direction. Thanks in great part to Stokes Adcook the Bruins rebounded from an 2 Start to go 4 last season including a 21-16 loss to Wisconsin in their first Rose bowl game in eight years. Cook completed ,165 of 297 passes for2,067 Yards and 18 touchdowns with Only four interceptions. , a Rangy foot-5v2, 223-Pound or with excellent Speed believes the ruins can be even better this year than no. 13 Tennessee at no. 14 Urcla 2 . Get sunday on an to they were in 1993. I Don t see any reason Why we should t win All Pur games he said. Stokes figures to draw a lot of Atten Tion this season but Urcla s Talent and depth at wide receiver might make it difficult for opponents to double cover him too often. We be got five receivers who could Start on any team in the Pac-10," Stokes said. / one of the five is Kevin Jordan a re turning starter who caught 45 passes for612 Yards and two touchdowns last year. I Don t think they re going to be Able to Stop .," Cook said. If they try to double cover him on every play that s i Dic Ulous. Cook is looking Forward to facing a opponent like Tennessee in a nationally televised game to Start the season. 2 . Get sunday on an to that s great. You might As Well Star with a big Jmie he said.

A Gene Stallings considers it a pleasant dilemma rather than a potential problem two quarterbacks with the credentials to Start Tor no. 11 Alabama but Only one Posi Tion. Do i have any problem with having two Good quarterbacks the Crimson tide coach asked. The answer is no. I wish had for now senior Jay Barker has been tapped As the starter which should come As no Surprise. He has directed Alabama to a 23-1 record and the 1992 National championship in three years As the no. 1 signal caller. " on the other hand Barker was t handed the Job until the Start of the week when Stallings named him the starter Over Brian Burgdorf his understudy the Southern Mississippi and two seasons. Burgdorf a Junior in regardless of what i say that could tired the fall As the starter based on his always change " Stallings said. A lot of map performance in the Gator bowl last times that s a feel. You can make All the season a game Barker missed with a knee injury. M both of us Are going to get playing time in that first game Burgdorf said of the season opener against division i a Tennessee Chattanooga. If i play Well saturday Well see what happens after that. I it s not been made Clear to me whether the Job is still open. But i fee like whoever moves the team that s the one they re going to have out agrees there la be enough playing time for both particularly in Light of he tide s puff cake schedule which also includes games against Tulane plans you want tip you can say of i going to play this one the first Quarter and then All of a sudden things i m saying is our plans Are to play both of them. How much that would be putting too much pressure on Homer offensive coordinator Homer Smith and Idon t want to do for Burgdorf who passed for two touchdowns and ran for another in the 24-10 Gator bowl Victory Over North car Olina the frustration is obvious.
