West Virginia wants error-tree game
By Matt Harvey_
The Associated Press
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The
Kickoff Classic may seem like a bowl
game, but West Virginia tight end
Lovett Purnell sees some big distinc
tions between it and his team’s Sugar
Bowl loss to Florida in January.
“For one, we
went down there for
a whole week,”
Purnell said.
“1 think we’re
leaving for the
Kickoff Classic a
couple days before
the game, so we don’t have to go
through all the hype of the game, the
people, all the ladies that were down
there,” he said. “We can just relax this
week and go home and study a little bit
and get ready for Nebraska.”
West Virginia’s players want Sun
day’s Kickoff Classic game against
Nebraska to have a different outcome
as well. The Mountaineers had 71
yards in penalties, fumbled on their
own 14 and gave up a 52-yard inter
ception return for a score in a 41-7
Sugar Bowl loss in New Orleans.
“I think we came out real tough
against Florida, but some things didn’t
go our way,” fullback Jim Freeman
said. “I think we’re going to have a
different attitude if we get down early
against Nebraska than we did in the
Florida game.”
West Virginia’s opener four of the
past five seasons has been against M id
American Conference teams. Yet none
of the Mountaineers seem to mind
opening against No. 4 Nebraska, which
is probably 35 points better on a bad
day than the best team in the Mid
American.
“1 think if you expect to get better,
you have to play better competition,”
offensive lineman Buddy Hager said.
“If that means playing Nebraska or
Oklahoma or anybody else, then why
not? I think that’s the key right there.
/ think if you expect to get better, you have to

ff
The better your competition level, the
better you’re going to play.”
Defensive lineman Steve Perkins
agreed. r
“This is going to set the tone for the
rest of the year,” he said. “If we go out
and beat Nebraska, I think we’ll pretty
much have a legitimate chance of win
ning the Big East again. Nebraska’s
been one of the premier powerhouses
in college football for the past decade.
I think if we could knock them off, it
would be really something special for
this program.”
But offensive lineman Calvin
Edwards acknowledges the Mountain
eers have talked about the dangers of
being obsessed with beating Nebras
ka.
“In a game, if they got in front of us
we would try not to break ..down,”
Edwards said.
“I guess the same would hold true if
we lost the game, if they blew us out or
whatever,” he said.“I’m sure it would
be hard to bounce back. But we still
have 11 games after that.”

Negotiationscontinue,
but no end’s in sight
NEW YORK (AP) — As owners
named their new bargaining team
Monday, union head Donald Fehr
called management negotiator Rich
ard Ravitch a “hatchet man” for own
ers who shed “crocodile tears” for laid
off workers.
Federal mediators announced that
talks will resume Wednesday in the
first face-to-face meeting since play
ers struck Aug. 12. But Fehr said he
saw no evidence that there could be
progress.
“We assume that at the first meet
ing we’ll get the management chorus
of‘Solidarity Forever’ and We Love
Dick,”’ Fehr said alter meeting with
the mediators for about 20 minutes.
Fehr, speaking before owners made
their announcement, launched into
repeated attacks on Ravitch’scredibil
ity. .
“The owners want to drastically
lower player salaries,” Fehr said.
“Dick’s the hatchet man to go and get
it done. Dick is not an independent
figure here.”
Ravitch has said repeatedly that he
feels badly for the tens of thousands of
workers laid off because of the play
ers’ strike, which entered its 11 th day
Monday and already has forced the
cancellation of 141 games. Fehr, point
ing out that Ravitch is getting paid his
$750,000 annual salary during the
walkout, referred to “the crocodile
tears Dick cries once in a while for the

It depends on
whether the calendar
is ‘Don’t play
baseball forever until
the players cave/ or
‘See how long it
lasts. ’
— Fehr,
baseball players’
representative
-w
people at the stadiums.”
Mediators will meet separately
Tuesday with the delegations from
both sides, including the management
representatives and players. When the
bargaining resumes, five or six mem
ber* of the management negotiation
will join Ravitch at the table—the first
direct invol vement by teams since talks
began on Jan. 13,1993.
Fehr said he couldn’t predict when
serious negotiations would begin to
end a walkout that already had cost
owners an estimated $93.5 million in
revenue and players about $48.6 mil
lion in salaries.
“It depends on whether the calen
dar is 'Don’t play baseball forever
until the players cave,’ or Sec how
long it lasts,”’ Fehr said.
