7-2-0 54 10. Tennessee St. 4-4-0 14 Wells to start at fullback Sophomore Chuck Wells will start at fullback for Florida State ahead of senior Cletis Jones in Saturday's Homecoming game against Western Carolina, according to running backs coach Billy Sexton. Sexton would not go into detail over the change of starters, saying that he gauged the move according to Wells' performance over the past few weeks. Jones, who has been starting at fullback for FSU since the middle of the 1983 season, has rushed for 356 yards on 78 carries this season, scoring two touchdowns.

Wells, who started briefly in the early part of the season at tailback, has rushed for 72 yards on 23 carries this season. With senior Todd Stroud recovering from arthroscopic surgery on his right knee, Lenny Chavers will start at nose guard for FSU Saturday. Sophomore offensive tackle Pablo Lopez is still limping with an ankle injury and is ques- tionable for the game. Sophomore Mark Salva, a guard who started for Lopez last week against South Carolina, will probably get the nod again. Freshman cornerback Deion Sanders will probably miss the game as he recovers from a fracture to his right wrist.

"To all my critics, you're going to make me famous one day," Hubbard said. "Naturally, I'd like to be at Florida next season, but nobody wants to stay any place where they're not wanted. I feel good about what I've accomplished here and how far the program has come.

We'll just have to see what happens at the end of the season." The Rattlers practiced just over three hours Wednesday in preparation for their showdown Saturday against Southern. "They can't say we aren't working, that's for Hubbard. Team trainer Phil Horton had no injuries to report.

"There's nothing seriously wrong with Rodney," said coach Galen Hall as the team prepared for its game with Kentucky.

"We just wanted him to take the day off and get every- thing in working order. He will probably be back 4 for practice tomorrow."

The Hurricanes had trouble with bad snaps and ball handling in their kicking game against Maryland, with one error costing them a safety. Three players linebacker Bruce Fleming, running back J.C. Penny and running back Tim Sims were not at practice Wednesday and "disciplinary action will be taken for an unex-cused absence from a workout," said Johnson.

The Hurricanes have an open date this week-, end and will play Colorado State in the Orange Bowl on Nov. 23 before closing their regular sea- son against Notre Dame Nov. 30.

7-1-1 21 16. St. John's, Minn. 1-1-0 20 Penn State wants Irish STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Several Penn State players said Wednesday that last year's embarrassing loss to Notre Dame will help the No.

l-ranked Nittany Lions when they host the Fighting Irish on Saturday. During a weekly teleconference, linebacker Trey Bauer said, "The way the Notre Dame game went last year is definitely going to help us 1 this year. We were embarrassed and they played a great game." But Lions Coach Joe Paterno disagreed, saying, "I don't think Penn State has to prove anything to anybody." 3 The Nittany Lions' 44-7 loss to Notre Dame in 1984 was the third-worst defeat in Paterno's 20 years as a head coach. Coupled with the 31-11 loss to Pitt, that game resulted in a 6-5 Penn State record and the first season since 1970 that the Lions did not go to a postseason bowl game; "In the back of our minds we know that Notre Dame and Pitt put us to shame last year," said guard Mitch Frerotte. "We have something to prove to them." Despite a 9-0 record, the Nittany Lions have struggled to remain unbeaten.

They have come from behind in six of their nine games and boast an average victory margin of only 8.4 points. "We just have to go and show the nation that we can play football and that our 9-0 record isn't a fluke," Frerotte said. "Everybody's questioning us. Even when we were 6-0, people were saying Ross From 1D we were the worst undefeated team in the nation. "Some people think we're No.

1 and some don't. I really don't care who's No. 1. Besides, when you're No. 1 everyone comes after you.

That's what Notre Dame and Pitt are going to -do," the lineman said. dearly. A foot injury during fall drills sidelined him temporarily, but slowly but surely Ross started rising in the tailback ranks. Throughout the season he has been returning kick-offs, while playing at the No. 3 or No.

4 tailback slot. Last week, during a route of South Carolina, Ross got his chance to shine and grabbed it. While fellow freshman Victor Floyd was dazzling the crowd with his 212-yard effort, Ross himself gained an impressive 163 yards, scoring once on a 53-yard touchdown run. As would be understandable of a person who put off college for three years, Ross doesn't fit the mold of the average freshman. At 21, he is up to four years older than some of his teammates.

"I don't know. There are just things that the younger players get off on doing that just don't appeal to me," Ross said, hands folded and eyes forward. "I mean, they'll do practical jokes and stuff and think it's real funny. I thought to myself, 'Man, did do that kind of stuff when I was that Well, did he? "Yeah, I guess I was like that too," he said, as the grin cracks. "I didn't seem to fit in at first," Ross continued.

"That's just the feeling I got. Most of the time I'd just sit in my room chillin' out. Doing those other kinds of things just didn't grab me any more." As the initial awkwardness of being around players younger and perhaps a little less mature than him wore down, Ross started to feel more comfortable. Having a person who's done what Ross has done has its advantages for the team. "That's good.

The maturity is good," said Bowden. "Here's a kid who's batted against tough pitchers and traveled all over the country and got paid for doing it. He knows a little more about what he wants. Plus, he's stronger physically; he's really ripe. He doesn't have to mature much more, because he's already done it" That maturity has helped develop a sense of confidence Ross has had for a while; a confidence that he wants not to be seen as cockiness.

He is sure of himself, but not in a blatant or flashy sense. He just knows he can do well. "I know that with the ability I have and with the given offensive line we have, a lot can be accomplished," he said. "It's just a simple matter of me waiting my turn, and believe me, I've developed a lot of patience over the past three years." So Ross decided to go back to football and start all over again. He couldn't play on the same team as his old friend Nattiel, though.

According to Southeastern Conference rules, as soon as an athlete signed to play for an SEC team moves on to the pros no matter what the sport he cannot come back to the SEC and play any sport. Ross therefore was, in the eyes of the SEC, ineligible. But he was eligible under NCAA rules to play for Florida State, which originally wanted Ross as a defensive back. Mickey Andrews, FSU's defensive coordinator who was an assistant coach at Florida when the Gators signed Ross, remembered him, and helped arrange his signing with FSU. "We based the signing on what we had seen of him in high school" Coach Bobby Bowden said.

"We had some film on him of his senior year and were very impressed. I'm sure glad we got him." So now, four years after playing his last down of football, Ross is back at the sport he says he missed Paterno, who is 3-1 against Notre Dame, said that his team's dismal finish last season made' him re-evaluate his coaching philosophy. He has since reorganized his staff, toughened his team's practices and sought help from defensive coaches from the Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears of the National Football League. Notre Dame enters the 3:30 p.m. game at Beaver Stadium with a 5-3 record, including four consecutive victories..
