I Monday. August 31, 1981The Daily Tar Heel5 Carolina 12 ih ihA'P poll "Blue dlav akead foDF the .Devils By GEOFFREY MOCK Assistant Sports Kditor Fourth in a series. The renovation of Duke's Wallace Wade Stadium has made it one of the most impressive facilities in the Atlantic Coast Conference. But the home football team will probably continue to resemble the old Blue Devil squad that has im- , pressed nobody with all of four wins in the past two years. Still, with the season two weeks away, there is hope in ? Durham that this could be the year to turn the football pro 4 gram around and produce the first winning season for the Blue Devils since 1974. , - "I know we haven't set the woods on fire the past few; years," Duke coach Red Wilson said, "but I think better.' thine": arc ahead for Diike football." ' offensive coordinator. "Coach Spurrier showed us the tricks of the trade," Jones " said. "He taught us to make head movements, read the de fensive backs things that opened it up for us on offense. Having a coach like him lets us always be prepared for any thing the defense throws at us." While the Blue Devil passing game prospered last year, its runners rarely pushed past the line of scrimmage, averaging only -2.2 yards a carry. "The running game has been one of Duke's weaknesses the past four, five years," Wilson said. "We haven't had those guys that get you 1 ,000 yards. But we will do better this .year because we have established a passing game, and the de fense has torespect that. If we Dut in the draws, the screens, the misdirection of plays, our running game will open up." ; Juniors Carl Franks and Greg Boone will share time at The promises have been made to Blue Devil fans before,' fullback, and the starting tailback will be either Joel Blunk or but players insist that this year will be different. "Duke.has always said that it was going to be good; then we die during the season," quarterback Ben Bennett' saidy " "It's time to put up or shut up. If we don't do it this year, we should be quiet" i J . - Duke won't be saying much next year unless Bennett carr repeat his performance of 1980, when he set four Blue Devil passing records and was named ACC Rookie of, the Yearr Since his boastful manner and flashy style on the field led de- fenses to key on him, Bennett said he would be more control led in his statements this year. '.., "I said things that I shouldn't have last year," he said. -"It's not that they weren't true, but I still shouldn't have said them. I had an attitude that was positive. It was a slap in the face of a lot of teams, and Duke needed that." Bennett will team up with a talented receiving corps led by wide receivers Cedric Jones, Chris Castor and Ron Frederick and tight end Mike Fuqua. Castor is a long-ball threat, grabbing one touchdown pass last year for 75 yards. Jones caught six touchdown passes to lead the team in that category. The revival of the passing game at Duke coincided with the hiring of former Heisman Trophy winner Steve Spurrier as Mike Grayson. ; I One reason for optimism about the running game is an ex perienced offensive line led by two preseason All-ACC picks, 'Robert Osendine and Brian Baldinger, at tackle. Tee Moorman $nd Greg Bamberger will play guard, and Philip t Ebinger wilTstart at center. JYeseasom Arf-America cornerback Dennis Tabron leads ,the defensjv unitl Tabron intercepted five passes last year, k Including three in one game against Clemson, and. ran one x back for a touchdown. - Beyond Tabron there is little experience in the secondary. - Cornerback Keith "Crenshaw is the only returning starter. The two safety spots will be taken up by -senior Mike Armstrong and junior Darrell Deaton. Both of last year's starting linebackers return: Emmett Tilley and Jimmy Tyson. Tyson led the team in tackles, and Tilley was third, even though he missed the last three games because of injury. " Four starters return to the five-man defensive line. It is led by senior co-captain Dan Yellott at nose guard, and defensive ends Larry LeNoir and Charles Bowser and tackle F.A. Martin are also back. JIT V Sports From starf and wire reports The University of North Carolina Tar Heels have been picked 12th in the initial AP football poll and 14th in the first UPI poll. , Both polls named the Michigan Wol verines as the preseason favorite for the mythical college football national cham pionship. The Wolverines ' return 14 starters from last year's team, which went 10-2 and defeated Washington 23-6 in the Rose Bowl. , ' - The Tar Heels, who finished last season with an 11-1 record, were the only Atlan tic Coast Conference team to be named in either poll. Michigan took 38 of 62 first-place bal lots and 1,183 points in the AP poll to easily defeat second-place Oklahoma, which had seven first-place votes and 1,100 points. Notre Dame was third with seven first place votes and 1,050 points, and Ala bama was fourth with 1,014 points. Rounding out the AP top 10 was Southern California, Nebraska, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Texas and defending champion Georgia. Ohio State was 1 1 th with one first-place ballot, followed by North Carolina. The rest of the top 20 was UCLA, Mississippi State, Washington, Brigham Young, Florida, Stanford, Florida State and Arizona State. Oklahoma was also behind Michigan in the UPI poll, followed by Alabama in third place and Notre Dame in fourth. The rest of the UPI top 10 was Southern California, Nebraska, Penn State, Georgia, Pittsburgh and Texas.

SOFT DRINK GOOD ONLY AT CHASE - with -coupon Soccer romps to win in opener North Carolina's men's soccer team opened its season with a convincing 8-0 win over High Point College Sunday on Fetzer Field. Captain Ricky Marvin said he was pleased with the opening performance. "In the past we've had problems with scoring," he said. "If we can continue to shut teams down as we did today, with our scoring we'll do real well." UNC missed several good scoring op portunities early, but Ben Abell came off the bench midway through the half to score two quick goals that sparked the Carolina attack. "We were having the problems putting the ball in the net at first," Coach Anson Dorrance said. "Ben came in and got us going. If you're going to name a man of the match, he's it." Several of the team's highly touted re cruits also showed signs of playing up to pre-season expectations. Robert Kelly played strong defense. Ken West came off the bench to score a goal. But Dorrance singled out the perfor mance of Billy Hart man, who scored two goals and assisted on two others in his college career debut. "Even an untrained eye can tell that Hartman is going to con tribute to this team," Dorrance said.
