UCLA has boon a story in itself,
as USC turned away from the
tailback and looked to a veteran
quarterback. Rodney Peete, to
guide the team's fortunes
New coach Larry Smith
developed a reputation as a run
ning coach at Arizona before
moving cross-conference to
Southern Cal. But Smith is
changing his style somewhat
this year to capitalize on the
multiple talents of his signal
caller He still hopes to grind
out 200 yards a game on the
ground, but Peete’s athleticism
won t go untapped.
Running back, Ryan knight
will be expected to pull a bigger
share of the load this year, but at
last word he wasn’t even at the
top of Smith’s depth chart
knight was the team's loading
ground gainer in 1086. but his
3,6-yards-per-carry average and
536 total yards were hardly up
to Trojan standards.
Both the offense and defense
of USC should be well protected

Muster is a double threat in

on last year's woeful 4-15 field

The defense was the biggest
surprise in Stanford' surprising
1988. and this year’s model will
find it difficult to repeat last
year's heroics. Although it
ranked just fifth in the Pac-10,

B.
Art Greathouse, who picked
up 404 yards and four TDs in
limited duty last year, hopes to
fill the void left by David
Adams, who averaged nearly
five yards a carry on his way to
1,175 yards and seven TDs in
1986.
Greathouse, all 5 feet 10 in

should have success as long as
he stays behind huge tackle Jeff
“Rhino” Rinehart. At 6 feet 2

Rinehart provides an imposing
shield.

10 TDs last season.
