Spqbts Ga. Tech still searching for a QB By KURT ROSENBERG Assistant Sports Editor If Dick Crum has problems, Bill Curry has even bigger problems. At the begin ning of the week, the North Carolina coach talked about the difficulty of play ing Georgia Tech, a team that has lost its starting quarterback for the entire season. Curry, the Georgia Tech coach, said he would not name his quarterback for Saturday's game against UNC until late in the week. It's now very late in the week, and still no word from Curry. Crum would have preferred not being left in the dark. "It's tough to prepare for someone when you don't know who their quarter back is going to be," Crum said. It's even tougher for Curry to prepare for someone when he doesn't know who his own quarterback is going to be. Stu Rogers suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of Tech's 41-14 loss to Clemson Saturday, forcing Curry to make a choice this week from among three players with virtually no experience. Sophomore John Dewberry is a good possibility for the starting spot. He replaced Rogers and rushed for 101 yards on 10 carries, including a 66-yard touch down run. There's also a chance that freshman Darrell Gast will start. Gast came in in the fourth quarter against Clemson and com pleted seven of 10 passes for 88 yards. And senior Andy Thomas, in his first year of varsity football, could see some action. No matter who lines up behind center for the Yellow Jackets, it's not going to make that much difference. North Carolina is 4-0; Georgia Tech is 0-3. The Tar Heels are averaging 36.7 points per game; the Yellow Jackets, 11.7. UNC's defense is flowing 13.7 points each game; Georgia Techs, 26. North Carolina quarterback Scott Stankavage is the top-rated passer in college football. Georgia Tech doesn't even know who its quarterback is. But there's no doubt about who the Yellow Jackets' tailback is. Robert Lavette, who rushed for 1,208 yards last season, is the ACC's fourth leading rusher, with 74 yards per game. Lavette has also caught 1 1 passes. Lavette's seen the films of UNC's win over William and Mary last week, in which the Tar Heels allowed the Indians 352 yards on offense. "Hopefully, they won't look too good this week, either," Lavette said. For the Tar Heels, the game is their first ACC matchup of the season. After hearing endless criticism about its weak non-conference schedule, UNC is glad to start playing its conference games. "I think our kids feel a sense of relief, because the past four games, we've been in a can't-win situation (win or lose, they would still be criticized)." . Georgia Tech may be in a can't-win situation this week. But Crum, in his typical style, doesn't underestimate the Yellow Jackets. "Every time we play them they have a special preparation week for us and get really cranked up," he said. Curry phrases things a little bit dif ferently. "This is a week of simplifying and fun damental work for us, simply because that's what we obviously need.'.' That, and a quarterback. G Dill . A fir1 -J SANDWICHES SALADS WE'RE, OPEN WHEN .

The Cavaliers Have never held the top spot in the. conference this far into the season and are off to their best start since 1952. The Terrapins reappeared in the Associated Press college football poll after defeating Pittsburgh last weekend. Maryland has retained the wide-tackle six as its primary defensive weapon, and that has Cavalier coach George Welsh a bit worried. "You only see that type defense once a year. So it requires our players to learn a lot," Welsh said, adding that although it's difficult to study, the defense is not invincible. N.C.'State, which lost to the Cavaliers! last weekend, looks again for its first con-; ference victory when it plays Wake Forest.: The Demon Deacons are playing their first; ACC game, and are working on a streakl of 12 consecutive quarters without allow-; ing a touchdown. Duke hosts No. 15 Miami of Florida in a regionally televised game. The Blue Devils are winless in three outings and had last weekend off. Wake Forest is another team opening its conference schedule, but coach Al Groh is working on keeping the pressure off his troops. "I think a conference game magnifies the pride factor," Groh said. "You live with these people. It's no different than when you compete with your brothers and sisters in a family." N.C. State coach Tom Reed was quite disappointed with his team's 26-14 loss to Virginia. He's hoping there's more than enough motivation to take to. Winston Salem and beyond. "The game and the motivational fac tors hopefully will play a part in it. We're 1:2. We have a lotto pjove." ' Apparently, there have been rumblings in Durham concerning Duke's slow start under new head coach Steve Sloan, who admits to feeling the heat of the public's scrutiny. "Going 0-3 is obviously harder than 3-0, 2-1 or 1-2 dealing with losing is much more difficult," Sloan said. "The fans, media, everything requires an ex planation. And more is required when you're losing." Meeting a team that just whipped Notre Dame doesn't make life any easier for Sloan. (f ENGAGEMENT L i NAPOLEON ABSOLUTELY e .
