Boston College gained 216 BY JOHN LAIRD American Sports Editor LUBBOCK The adjustment required of young people by college ii no secret, and everyone knows the quick and drastic changes demanded of the football player. 1 But, for a young man who goes from schoolboy superstar to collegiate benchwarmer, that adjustment is ajl too real and all too painful.

Donald Roberts just may be the best all-around athlete in the Southwest Conference. With the arm of a professional, he is a very good quarterback. As one of the fastest on the Texas Tech football team, he is a very good defensive back. He is, also a very good punter and is very good returning kicks. Because he is" "only very good" in these departments, he stands alone as a second-string-everything.

All around him he finds athletes of inferior overall ability, but there are so many specialists at every position he must accept the role of a reserve. Roberts' varsity debut here Saturday night was a study in frustration. Until 5:48 showed on the fourth quarter clock he was little more than one of the 38,542 spectators at Jones Stadium. That, mind you, is more than the typical adjustment required of a college gridder. Roberts' high school athletic career was legendary.

He is to Seminole what Don Meredith is to Mount Vernon, what Joe Barnes is to Big Lake and what Donald Walker is to Pecos. Sitting on the Red Raider bench might not be so different if Roberts had not earned 14 letters at Seminole High. Before he left the 3 A school, the young star had three all-district basketball nods, all-state football honors and was that his favorite food was "cherry delight cooked by his mother for dessert." Indeed Roberts Is the pride of Seminole. He is a monument to modesty. Roberts seems oblivious to the thousands of iwoDle watching his team.

He appears unaware of the magnitude of his role. So innocent, that when approached in the postgame locker room he said, "Are you sure I'm the one you want to talk to? I'm Donald Roberts. So what is his role at Texas Tech? "To stay ready." Roberts does this by finding a spot on the sidelines and staying there, watching the game intently, putting forth no emotions stronger than an occasional handclap and, most importantly, concentrating. With Tech controlling a 24-3 lead, Roberts finally entered the game. He displayed a greater desire to run with the football than Tommy Duniven, his superior who completed none of 12 passes for 76 yards and one touchdown.

With just over a minute left in the contest, Roberts fumbled the football to a teammate.

Taking over after starting quarterback Marty Akins suffered a concussion early in the second quarter, Presley was a one-man gang in rallying the Longhorns.

Don Burrisk plunged for the second touchdown and Graylon Wyatt passed 12 yards to Tommy Ingram for another. BC narrowed the count on Fred Steinfort's second field goal in the third period, but Texas pulled off some razzle-dazzle to return the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown.

Rice got a first down at the Houston one but Owl back Tommy Kramer fumbled and Mark Mohr recovered for Houston. After two plays, McGraw took off on his 91-yard run. the longest In UH history. The victory atoned a 30-9 loss by the Cougars last week against Arizona State and gave the first annual Bayou Bucket, symbolic of the intracity rivalry.

It was Rice's season opener. Rice had first-game jitters, turning over the ball to the Cougars four times, including one fumble and three The Owls were continually thwarted by penalties In key situations. Rice missed out a 31-yard pass reception by tight end Kenneth Roy because of offensive holding that killed one drive. A 15-yard personal foul against Rice kept Houston's third touchdown drive alive. Husmann, who missed last week's opener with a leg injury, completed five of 12 passes for 85 yards and one touchdown.

The Rice defense stiffened in the fourth quarter when the Cougars drove to the Owl one-yard line but were held for no gain on three straight line plunges. The Houston defense, led by tackle Lee Canalito and end Mack Mitchell, plagued Kramer throughout the game. Mitchell personally accounted for three sacks on Kramer.

Gillman was head coach at San Diego 11 years and directed many of those victories over the Oilers when he was feuding with Oiler owner K. S.

"Bud" Adams during the formative years of the American Football League. There still was plenty of feuding around the Oiler camp this preseason with the Oilers going to court over the loss of John Matuszak to the World Football League Houston Texans, and the NFL players strike. But out of it all, the Oilers put together a 3-3 record during preseason games and hope to new head coach Tommy Prothro. "We don't intend to be the laughing stock of the league this year," said Charger receiver Jerry LeVias. "I don't think the 'Oilers do either The Oilers aren't going to be a soft touch any more than we are." Coleman was the find of the preseason for the Oilers.

An unheralded rookie from Alabama who wasn't drafted by any NFL team, Coleman finished the preseason as the AFC'i leading rusher with 493 yards on 89 carries and a 5.5-yard average per carry.
