But the Red Rage has allowed only two touchdowns in its last two games. Weber says there will be no lineup changes, although starting linebacker Mike Trainor, who missed the Kansas game with a pinched nerve, is extremely doubtful tonight.

He'll again be replaced by Joe Kader. "The only change is that we've been getting a couple of our younger backs Marcus Handley and Nate Dozier ready if we need them," said Weber. As for being mentally ready for Memphis State, of need only listen to Weber's recital of scores in the series. "You never truly know how your people will play until the game begins, but I believe the squad knows Memphis has been tough each year," said Weber. "And we know they're better than their record has been." By JOHN McGILL a Courier-Journal Staff Wrltar The game will come down to the final seconds, of course.

One team will jump ahead, then lose the lead, then rally. And one of them, Louisville or Memphis State, will step off the roller coaster with its second victory of the Reason. I It history indeed repeats itself, that figures to be the scenario tonight when the Red Rage plays Memphis at in-Fairgrounds Stadium. the exception of the 1975 game flayed here, which saw Memphis tate win 41-7, this series has been packed with close games over the past JVen years. ln addition to the '75 blowout, Memphis State has won five others in that jtfari, by scores of 28-21 (1973), 16-10 1974), 26-14 (1976), 29-22 (1978) and J0-6 (1979).

Louisville won 14-13 in 4977 when Memphis State tried for a two-point conversion in the final sec-pnds and failed. And in 1978, of This game will go far in determining whether Louisville has indeed turned 180 degrees on a season that appeared a disaster before the Kansas game. Quarterback Pat Patterson has completed 16 of his last 27 passes for 195 yards and one touchdown, including 11 of 19 at Kansas and five of eight in of L's last drive in a 13-9 loss to Murray, the first time the offense had shown any punch this season. "Kansas was a great win, but it was only two or three hours before the coaching staff and myself realized we still have a long, tough schedule," Weber said. "And Memphis has been a thorn for us.

Our concern is moving the ball. Memphis has a pretty good defense." With the exception of the Ole Miss game, the Tigers have played well defensively. Mississippi State broke open a close game in the final minutes because Memphis State, unable to generate any offense, saw its defense tire. of L's defense experienced much led 22-7 before the Tigers rallied to win. Last year, of had a would-be game-winning drive in the closing moments fail on a pass interception.

of is rated a slight favorite this time, and coach Bob Weber is understandably wary. "We're catching them at a time when they're improving," he said. True enough. Memphis State, which lost its first two games (to Mississippi State and Mississippi) by a combined score of 95-14, then lost at Georgia Tech 18-7 and rallied in the fourth quarter last week to beat Arkansas State 24-3. Louisville is likewise 1-3, but the Cardinals are coming off a victory over Kansas two weeks ago.

Weber admitted that his team is anxious to show the hometown fans the remarkable change it exhibited in Lawrence, when of stunned the Jay hawks 17-9. "We've tried to center our immediate objectives around that," he said. "We want to have a complete game at home, really get it going."

Both teams have good teams and good programs and are always competitive. That's what makes this the most colorful game of the week." So colorful that it will be telecast nationally for the ninth time (ABC-TV, Channel 32 in Louisville, 12:30 p.m. EDT).

Pitt-Florida State matches two of the nation's top defensive teams and players. Pitt, led by end Hugh Green, is fourth in total defense while Florida State, No. 9 on the defensive list, features another All-American in nose guard Ron Simmons, who is rounding into top shape after missing two games with an ankle injury. The Semi-noles are coming off a victory over Nebraska. "Their defense is awfully quick," Pitt coach Jackie Sherrill said of Florida State.

"They have by far the quickest defense we've played. Nebraska hasn't blocked their linebackers yet." However, one of those linebackers, Paul Piurowski, was sidelined with appendicitis after winning national Lineman of the Week honors for his performance against Nebraska. Two of the West Coast's heavy they beat them, but they shut them out," said Stanford coach Paul Wiggin, referring to the Bruins' 17-0 whitewashing of Ohio State last week. "We're matched against a clear-cut powerhouse of the conference. Stanford is an underdog going into this game, but I expect us to respond favorably." UCLA is off to its best start (4-0) since 1969 and has recorded consecutive shutouts for the first time in 20 years.

"Due to the fact we are undefeated, I'd have to say we're off to a fabulous start," said UCLA coach Terry Donahue. "It will be interesting to watch us prepare for two of the nation's best teams back to back." Miami had a week off to savor its upset of Florida State. The Hurricanes, who lead the nation in rushing defense, will be severely tested by Notre Dame's Phil Carter, who ran for 254 yards against Michigan State a week ago and ranks second nationally in that category. "We will be playing the most physical team Miami has faced," said coach Howard Schnellenberger. "Their offensive unit is unbelievable in size.

It weighs over a ton to be exact, 2,530 pounds." Cpm Hit aithaala Hm 'actiaMta mmf mi can.

Actually, Alabama will be playing Rutgers at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., which is just a Stone's throw from the center of Manhattan. The Crimson Tide will feel fcretty much at home, though, since Alabama fans have purchased some 14,000 tickets.

JjTne last time Alabama played in Ihe New York area was in 1939, when pte Tide edged Fordham 7-6. Its only other trip to New York was a 2-0 loss JcCFordham in 1933. tMeanwhile, third-ranked Texas has it annual Red River rumble with No. i Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl at Dallas, fourth-ranked Pitt visits No. 1 1 JJprida State for a night contest, fifth-ranked UCLA entertains No.

15 Arkansas plays Wichita State in a night game at Little Rock, Duke is at No. 17 South Carolina at night and No. 19 'Missouri is at Oklahoma State. Alabama heads north with the nation's longest winning streak at 25 games. Tide coach Bear Bryant has spent most of the week reminding his players that Rutgers knocked off Tennessee in Knoxville last year and not to take the Scarlet Knights lightly.

"Frankly, I don't know that much about Rutgers," Bryant said. "It certainly got our attention last year when they beat Tennessee in Knoxville. Shirley Temple teams don't do that. From what I hear talking to other people is that coach Frank Burns has done a very fine job of building a national-type program. "We are looking forward to coming to the New York area.

It should be a trip our players will enjoy because they will get to see things they might never have the opportunity to see. I've told our team it is a chance for them to show the Eastern section of the nation the kind of football we play, and since if you are going to make all-county, all-anything, it starts in New York. And that goes for the poll, too." Texas-Oklahoma is one of college football's great rivalries. Oklahoma's 82-42 rout of Colorado a week ago produced 53 records in six different categories while six other marks were tied. The 875-yard explosion boosted the Sooners to the top of the national charts in total offense with an average of 542 yards per game.
