    NU coach: backs
should’ve zagged
OSBORNE from Page 18
carry in a 23-14 win over Texas A&M
in the Kickoff Classic. I-back Ken
Clark led all rushers with 80 yards on
20 carries. Terry Rodgers, who backs
up Clark, averaged 6.5 yards a carry
against the Aggies.
Osborne said the I-backs need to
show some improvements on decid
ing when to cut up field.
“There were two or three times
when we zigged when we should have
zagged and we had a couple of poten
tial touchdown runs but we cut back
into somebody,” Osborne said. “And
we’d also like to see the passing game
improve.”
Quarterback Steve Taylor, a sen
ior from Fresno,Calif., completed 11
of 22 passes for 125 yards and one
touchdown.
“One thing I was pleased with this
last week was that Steve Taylor took
S3 snaps and was not involved in a
turnover,” Osborne said. “He had one
pitch out that went out of bounds and
one hobbled snap but he really graded
out pretty well and did a good job of
taking care of the ball when he was
throwing it.”
But the defensive line reacted well
to its first lest of the season, Osborne
said.
FSU favored
in ’88 preseason
consensus
By Mark Derowitsch
Senior Reporter
With eight of nine lst-place votes,
Florida Slate has established itself as
the 1988 preseason favorite in a
magazine consensus.
The Seminoles, who defeated Ne
braska 31-28 in last season’s Fiesta
Howl, garnered 179 out of a possible
180 points and easily outdistanced
second place Oklahoma and third
place Clcmson. The Sooners finished
with 146 points whileCIcmson tallied
142. Points were awarded on a one
through 20 basis, with 20 points
awarded for a lst-place vote.
Florida State was ranked 2nd only
on The Sporting News’ poll. Michi
gan, which finished 10th overall on
the consensus, was The Sporting
News’ lop pick.
Rounding out the consensus top
ten were Southern California, Ne
braska, Texas A&M, UCLA, Miami,
Auburn and Michigan.
The 2nd half of the consensus poll
included Iowa, Notre Dame, Tennes
see, Michigan State, South Carolina,
Louisiana State, Georgia, Alabama,
Texas and West Virginia.
Jerry McCoin, publisher of
Athlon’s Magazine, which picked
Florida State No. 1, said the Semino
les have all the right tools to win the
national championship.
This team has great talent,” he
said. “It has experience. It has a favor
able schedule. It has (coach Bobby)
Bowden. That means style and suc
cess, an unexpected end around, a
uumo on mira-anu-two, a lake pum
and pass. It means wins, maybe 12
this time.”
The Sooners, who have been the
pre season favorite for the past three
seasons, received two 2nd-place
votes from Lindy’s and Football
Action.
Lindy Davis, publisher of Lindy’s,
said the Sooners’ season will be pre
dictable.
“As usual, the Sooners will win a
lot of games, defeat Nebraska to win
the Big Eight and go to the Orange
Bowl ’ he said. ‘‘But, deja vu, their
inability to throw the ball effectively
against a quality opponent will cost
them in the biggie.
Nebraska, which finished 5th in
the consensus with 134 points, de
feated 6th-ratcd Texas A&M last
Saturday in the Kickoff Classic 23
14.
“Nebraska, as always, is a fixture
in the Top 10,” he said. “If (quarter
back) Steve Taylor and company can
Ret by A&M in the Kickoff Classic,
the Huskcrs should be in the fight for
No. 1. Odds are, they’ll finish about
4th.” 7
