Alabama 42-0 the Rattlers gathered under one of the goalposts Coach i Rudy Hubbard spoke briefly and quietly to his players Then they got down on their knees and prayed The players then stood and in voices ever so soft sang the alma mater It is a postgame pattern that has been followed by since arrival five years ago Under Hubbard the Rattlers 7-1 in have won 19 of their last 20 and 39 of 52 with two ties Hubbard explains the reasons for the postgame routine: we do is come together and try to round it all up try to use the game we have played win or lose in terms of the lives we live If you interpret the game of football in terms of living it is sometimes difficult to understand why you are going out there and breaking THAT AMBIVALENCE is not unlike Hubbard He is low-key but has thrown a few barbed-wire quips he is a good winner and a sore loser One thing is certain: work hours seem endless The night before a game he does the midnight bedchecks But the lights are burning at 1 or 2 am in his office where he has been known to fall asleep while studying films believe in hard he says believe that is the way you are going to be successful There is no substitute The will to win we always tell our players is not as important as the will to There may be occasion Hubbard concedes when he may overdue his philosophy But he says he tries to mix it up think we have a good he says have a lot of fun in our meetings for example and on the field We run so tight a ship that the game is no longer Initially Hubbard had to sell his players on his hard-work philosophy It easy even during the 9-2 season in 1975 were winning games then that we deserve to Hubbard says thought the '76 team (6-3-2) was the turning point been sold since then background has always been one of discipline We very seldom questioned what any of our coaches had to say Things are different now And had to learn that think what it takes is a basic and mutual understanding of a common goal From a disciplinary standpoint we try to be policemen we want that kind of atmosphere at the same time we are trying to build character When it gets to the point a young man does not understand what we are trying to do after a period of time then this is not the school for him I think the program is for HUBBARD is clearly the boss He calls most of the shots almost all the offensive plays for example try" he said "to get involved across the But his assistants do have autonomy and are challenged to assert themselves "It is easy for me to think right all the Hubbard says I want to be right But if got yes-men around make you think always right and never grow" That philosophy was not one Hubbard learned at Ohio State where he was a player and coach for Woody Hayes a foremost exponent of yards and a cloud of dust" football He tells this story about his apprenticeship: in the press box helping to call plays and we had about a first-and-five at the six So we ran three Slayton Captures Georgia Marathon PINE MOUNTAIN Ga (UPI) Gary Slayton of Valdosta led a field of more than 1100 runners Saturday to win the Callaway Gardens marathon qualifying him for next Boston Marathon Running In unseasonably warm temperatures Slayton ran the 26-mile course in 2:2810 Finishing second was Randy Stroud 24 of Atlanta at 2:2912 Atlantan Karl DeSantos 28 was third In 2:3247 The first woman to finish the race was Shirley Silsby 21 of Miami who was clocked in 3:07:12 who belittled an opponent He first pointed out the opponent had been ranked then said should read the sports pages and Jet The times he blasted officials for cheating being blind and having other infirmities each time after a loss The battle he had with a Tallahassee reporter who come to the school to interview him Thus Hubbard refused to go to the paper to be interviewed Net result? No publicity Describing facilities he said no Cadillac but got one hell of a Chastising Tangerine Bowl officials for not picking FAMU (11-0) to play FSU (8-2) he said are as nearsighted as Mr Magoo The biggest game they could have would be Florida State against Florida I think of a finer LATELY he appears more tolerant is just not my normal Hubbard says "though I'm capable of He does not recall ever using curse words in front of his players though he hints capable Of it Perhaps a preseason statement that Hubbard made tells much about the way he thinks and what he has wrought with the Rattlers "Up to this he says "we have been hoping our players would do what we wanted them to do "This year we have the players to do what we want done and we expected them to do it East Albany 32

gives me the phones and I give the play to the coach on the field He tells Woody Well that was it Woody grabs the phone throws it to the ground steps on it and starts pointing his finger at the press box I was sure all 80000 people in the stands knew he was yelling at Still Hubbard is the first to admit he has patterned his coaching after Hayes "Why he asks done THOUGH firm and quite businesslike Hubbard is essentially low-key in his approach to people He is neither a ranter nor a raver Only occasionally he says will he try to inspire his team somebody comes into my dressing he says is looking for an old Notre Dame type of pep talk going to be disappointed We try to use a logical every-guy-must-do-his-job approach you have to be mentally prepared always to go out and do your job in a businesslike manner you have to be fired up for every gpme It is not necessary But there are some games you try to fire up your team and we try to save for those I can get pretty fired up At 32 Hubbard can indeed This year he has taken on Keith Jackson over an undefeated streak and his athletic department over divisional realignment In the past he has stepped on toes Like: When asked about run-in with a photographer he said not going to hit you because you put a camera in my face but on the other hand not going to let you hit me in the back of the head with it The time he ripped reporters Morris Brown Stop Bethnne 33-7 FROM PAGE I C' Bethune mounted a 71 -yard touchdown drive The big play was a 36-yard pass from Vaughan to Stanley Brown that set the Wildcats up at the Morris Brown 23 Young gathered in the TD pass on third and goal from the four and the Wildcats moved to a 13-7 lead PAT failed Cainion returned the ensuing kickoff to his 25 but he lost the handle on the football and Ron Minor claimed possession Norris wasted no time rifling a first-down pass 25 yards to Ricardo Thomas who made an exceptional catch in the end zone to give the Wildcats a 19-7 advantage The two-point conversion pass was incomplete Early in the third quarter the Wildcats embarked on another long march This drive covered 53 yards and was keyed by an 18-yard run by Laverett and a 14-yard ramble by Claitt A clipping penalty nullified three-yard touchdown thrust but Norris got the Wildcats a for-real TD with an 18-yard pass to Young point-after made it 26-7 with 10:43 remaining in the third period On the next series the Wolverines made another charitable contribution but Bethune spurned it Greg Killings recovered another bad pitch by Oldham at the Morris Brown 16 but the Stacy Charles turned right around and fumbled the ball back to the Wolverines Morris Brown could do nothing from that point and Bethune stormed back with a 70-yard touchdown drive When Laverett ran it over from 16 yards out and Thompson kicked the point-after Bethune Coach Andy Hinson could relax and enjoy a 33-7 bulge with 2:23 left in the third period The Wildcats bungled two chances to widen the margin early in the fourth quarter GREEN BAY Wis AP) Green Bay Packer Coach Bart Starr whose team will face the Dallas Cowboys at Milwaukee today says that the defending Super Bowl problems this year seem to stem from the title they won last season "To me the key would be that everyone is ready to play the world champion Each team prepares as if in the Super Starr said Friday as solid a team as there is around but unfortunately for them everyone prepares for them in a very special way They have an outstanding array of The Packers enter the contest a surprising 7-3 while the Cowboys are 6-4 Green Bay has beaten Dallas eight of the nine times the two National Football League teams have clashed including the last time in 1975 The first quarter of encounter could well decide the contest The Packers have a 57-3 edge in that period over their opponents this season while the Cowboys have been outscored 55-14 But Dallas trailed 17-0 after the first quarter last week before rallying to within 23-16 against th Dolphins And Green Bay after tallying 172 points in its first seven games has accumulated only 19 in the last three 49crs Reported Seeking Allen SAN FRANCISCO (AP) George Allen fired
