Shira's Bulldogs
tough challenge
The Red and Black, Thursday, Oct. 1, 1970

Staff writer
This coming Saturday two
sets of Bulldogs, the Georgia
and Mississippi State versions
will grapple at Jackson
Miss Coach Charles Shira of
State has placed five sopho
mores on defense in a youth
oriented effort to improve over
last year s 3-7-0 record
Shira s brief career at the
helm of Mississippi State has
seen the development of an
effective, predominantly aerial
offense. However, the defense
has been weak, and Shira is de
pending heavily on his young
defensive crew to help him col
lect his second SEC win in five
long years His learn beat Van-
dy last week
For this reason. Shira has
boldly entrusted the secondary
to three sophomores Emile
Petro will be at safety with Ken
Phares and Frank Dowsing at
sidebacks Petro. Phares. and
Dowsing managed to gain their
positions by beating out three
experienced veterans
THE DEFENSIVE f oe is a
more experienced crew, but
there are still no seniors Jun
ior Jim McAlpin and sopho
more Jack Hall are the ends
At the sub flanker positons
are two sophomores. Bob Kim
brough and Robbie Armstrong
The tackle duties will be as
signed to Jerry Conrad and
Mike Eaton, two all-conference
hopefuls
OBVIOUSLY, Mississippi
State has one of the most inex
perienced defensive plalrxins in
the conference, but the offen
sive team is stocked with sea
soned performers
The offensive (earn is
stocked with seasoned perform
ers
The offensive attack centers
around three seniors — quart
erback Joe Reed, split end Sam
Milner, and flanker Dave
Smith Reed, a capable runner
and thrower, is dangerous on
the option play. Shira called
Reed s game last week against
Vandy his best
Last Year Milner caught 64
passes for 745 yards Smith
snared 50 passes and doubled as
a kick returner The two receiv
ers are not to be ignored
Mississippi state will at
tempt to beet up a chronically
ineffective running game with
Lewis Grubbs, a promising
sophomore tailback and Don
Dudlev. a 190-pound fullback
THE TIGHT END duties
will probably be shared by Bob
Young and Ron Moore tackle
Joe Edwards will probably star
on the blocking line Mike
Chapman and Joe Brabham
will share the other tackle spot
It should take a rugged pass
defense to slow down the flashy
offensive tactics of Mississippi
State The young defense per
formed well against Vanderbilt
last week yielding a lone touch
down to help gain Mississippi
State its first conference victo
ry after a five year drought
file young Bulldogs are not the
pushovers that many predicted
at the season's beginning
Players, Queens, Writers
For the remainder of the 1970-71 football
season, the six stalwarts pictured here will to
the best of their ability, pick the winners for the
big grid contests of the upcoming week
After this week the leaders percentage wise
will have the honor of moving their photos ac
cording to their accuracy. For this first set of
picks, however, the six will be in alphabetical
order

Clemson s Baby Tigers In
vade Sanford Stadium Friday

son opener for both them and
the host Bullpups Coach Byrd
Whigham and his assistants
well rememberCTemson as the
Kittens put the only blemish on
the Bullpups 1969. 4-1 record by
a 27-21 score
"We have had to follow much
of the varsity's game plans,
Whigham said, "as Clemson
added a new head freshman
coach this fall, too
"We have little idea of what
we will see Friday other than
the performance Clemson's
varsity put on last Saturday.
We are just not sure what they
are going to do
Earlier this fall Whitham
indicated that the offensive line
play was "our major problem
"We are going to be starting
a big offensive line, and all
these boys have improved quite
a bit. but they still have alot to
learn about their positions.'
Whigham explained
The offensive front five
range from right guard Bill
Smith's 210 to left tackle Eddie
Milo's 245, Other offensive line
men will be Rusty Carter at left
guard. Rick Reider at center
and Jim Cagle at right tackle
Cagle is the offensive co
captain. and his counterpart of
defense will be Tom Holt, play
ing in one of the linebacker
slots
FRANK BRICE was nailed
down the right end spot, but
Ralph Clark and Randy Hudson
are battling for the split end
slot.
The offensive backfield will
be composed of Jimmy Poulos
at tailback and Jim Chastain at
flanker while George Pilcher
and Dennis Whitt battle at full
back and Don Golden and Andy
Johnson work for the quarter
back position
Golden and Johnson faced
each other in the Georgia AAA
championship last fall and
again in the Georgia Football
all-star game this past spring
Johnson, an Athens gradu
ate, spent several weeks of ear
ly practice with a hothersome
injury but has been given a
clean bill of health
The safety position, the only
one not yet settled on defense,
has been narrowed down to Bil
ly Griffith and Golden Golden
is the only boy who could possi
ble start both ways Friday.
THE DEFENSIVE line in
cludes Gene Bagwell at left
end. Dennis Hester at left tac
kle. Alan Kuniassky at left
guard. Tony Barnett at right
guard. Wendell Dixon at right
tackle and Ed Milam at right
end.

linebacker, while Bob Burns
and Jim Harper round out the
defensive backfield at the cor-
nerback slots.
