IT HAS BEEN A VERY GOOD YEAR Today's Game by Horace Gosier The intersectional rivalry between FAMU and Tennessee State University is without doubt the keenest on the list of out-of-state Rattler opponents. It is an annual grid-iron clash that viscerally involves not only the players, but the followers of both teams as wells. And so tonight, look for a hotly contested battle with each participants giving his all. The winner won't necessarily be the best team. Rather, the team which can best control the emotion and excess adrenalin and keep its cool in the unorthodoxed situations which inevitably surface, will likely be the game's victor. The game is a crucial one for both teams. The Rattlers are looking to regain the poise that escaped them in their 16-13 loss to Alabama State and their 14-14 tie with Morris Brown. A decisive win over Tennessee State might put them on the right track for the tough schedule ahead, and gain the attention of the ranking "experts" who earlier this season shunned them so unjustly. Tennessee State, which entered the 1976 season on the heels of a 5-4-0 record for 1975, would do much to assuage the spirits of Head Coach John Merritt who boasts an overall 106-19-3 record as he enters his 14th year at the Tiger helm. Going into tonight's game, the Big Blue Tigers are 5-1-0, having won over Middle Tennessee State (26-17), Jackson State (23-20), Alabama A & M (26-0), Texas Southern (21-8), and Grambling (34-20). Their only loss has come at the hands of FAMU's Orange Blossom Classic opponent, the Central State Marauders who eased past TSU 24-18. To date, TSU is averaging 303 yards per game in total offense. The team is averaging 139 yards per game rushing and 164 yards passing. Fullback Lawrence Barnes is the Tigers' leading rusher with 3)5 net ground yards and seven touchdowns to his credit. Quarterback Austin Thompson has passed .119 times, making 59 completions for 942 yards and has drawn 10 interceptions. Twenty of those passes were caught by flanker Jerrold McRae (number 83) for 200 yards and two touchdowns. Flanker Rodney Parker (numer(number 40) has caught 13 practice, working on their overal game and concentrating on som, fundamentals that hopefully wil return the poise the team has lacket in its last two outings. Albert Chester, shaken up in th. final period against Morris Brown, i back in shape and will call the signal for the Rattlers. He may be spelled b" Ricky Pope who came in an( engineered the final Rattler drive las week that ended in a missed field goa last week. But that was last week. Coach Rud, Hubbard and the Rattlers have lef that one behind and are concen trating on gaining their fourth seasor win here tonight. passes for 331 yards and four TD's. All four of the above named are expected to figure prominently in tonight's contest. FAMU's average total offense350.2 yards per game-exceeds that of TSU, however, the Rattlers have not been able to translate those yards into victories due mainly to costly turnovers. In last week's contest with Morris Brown in Atlanta, the Rattlers dominated the game in terms of yardage. Tailbacks James Early and Michael Thomas both gained in excess of 100 yards. Still the game ended in a tie. The Rattlers had a good week of 1975 FLASHBACK Florida A&M 20, Tennessee State 0 NASHVILLE, Tenn., October 25-Blending a magnificent defensive effort with a persistent and opportunistic offense, Florida A&M's Rattlers stuck it to Tennessee State 20-0 and cast aside what was thought to be a hex held over the Rattlers by the Big Blue Tigers. Not since 1968 had Florida A&M been able to beat Tennessee State, and never had the Rattlers been able to win in Nashville, but this cold, rainny night in Nashville marked the end of an era . . . or the beginning of one, if you will. The Rattler defense intercepted six Tennessee State passes, forced two safeties and set up the rest of the scoring for offense, which stood ready and cashed in.

He wanted . and not them. immediate results In just two years Hubbard redirected the FAMU football program and under his leadership the Rattlers regained that respectability that had become a tradition on the highest of Tallahassee's seven hills. Florida A&M had has a history of winning at football. From 1937 through 1969 the Rattlers won 252 games and lost only 46, an average of just over one loss per year for 33 seasons. In the four years immediately preceding Hubbard's arrival A&M dropped 22 games for an average of 5.5 losses per season, while winning only 21. In Hubbard's first season, 1974, he coached the Rattlers to a 6-5 season, their first winning record since a similar mark in 1971. And that was just the beginning. In 1975 Hubbard's team posted a 9-2 record, their best overall since 1969. It also was the first time a Florida A&M team had won as many as nine games in a single season since 1964. With a background as a former player and coach under Woody Hayes at Ohio State, Hubbard brought in a winning attitude. He is a believer in sound, fundamental football and knows how to recruit the horses to make his program go. While at Ohio State, Hubbard personally recruited Archie Griffin, who later became the only person ever to win the Heisman Trophy twice, Cornelius Greene and John Hicks. Greene has been the MVP in the Rose Bowl while Hicks won the Outland and Lombardi trophies before entering the National Football League. An All-Conference and All-County performer in high school basketball and football for three years, Hubbard was player-of-the-year as a freshman at Ohio State. A knee injury sidelined the running back for most of his sophomore year, but he fought back and was in uniform before the season's end. He was a starter all his junior year and really blossomed during his senior year, averaging 5.3 yards per carry, scoring three touchdowns, catching 13 passes for 98 yards and averaging 17.1 yards per attempt on kickoff returns. Hubbard was drafted by Montreal of the Canadian Football League in 1968 but forewent a professional football career when he was offered a job as backfield coach for Ohio State. Hubbard said he wanted someday to become a head coach and "I felt my chances were far greater as an assistant to Coach Hayes than chancing a professional football career." He joined the Buckeye staff in 1968 and that year Ohio State won the national championship. He has coached Jim Otis, Leo Hayden and John Brockington, all now prominent figures in the National Football League. Hubbard has chartered the path for himself and his Rattlers and from all indications that path leads to continued success. He will accept no less. Hubbard hails from Hubbard. Ohio, where he attended Hubbard High School (the names are mere coincidence). He was recruited by over 60 colleges before finally deciding on Ohio State. He is married to the former Belinda Schwartz and is the father of one son. Sean, and one daughter, olinda. AL BOGAN Offensive Centers & Guards Bogan became the first member of Rudy Hubbard's staff when Hubbard was named head coach. "AI will help our program tremendously," Hubbard said. Bogan is a graduate of Ohio University and was an assistant at Indiana State University before coming to Florida A&M.

AYEAR OUT OF COLLEGE AND IN CHARGE OF THE ENTIRE SHIP. The Midshipmen of the Naval ROTC at FAMU have returned from their Summer Cruises to Hong Kong, Hawaii, Rio De Janiero and the Mediterranean. They've seen a lot and they have enjoyed an exciting and challenging summer. But Most important, they each were given responsibilities which most people never see in a lifetime. Picture yourself on the Bridge of a Destroyer, or at the controls of an F-14 Tomcat or leading a platoon of Marines. Our NROTC graduates are out there now as leaders in the Navy and Marine corps. If you are looking for a challenge and a position with some real responsibility after you graduate from FAMU then the Naval ROTC may be just the thing for you. The NROTC has a program designed for freshmen and sophomores through which you can earn a commission as an officer in the Navy or Marine Corps. And if you are a Technology, Math. Physics or Chemistry major you may qualify for a full-time Scholarship. We invite you to stop by the Unit at 690 Gamble Street to discuss the many opportunities available to men and women at FAMU in the Naval Service. Or call us at 599-3980 or 599-3989. When you see our Midshipmen on campus ask them what their future holds. That future could be yours.

Presidentof KappaKappaPsi Arlinda Coney Presidentof Tau BetaSigma The New Chevrolet The handwriting was on the wall. It clearly said that the time had come for a new kind of 6-passenger car. One that would use fuel and space more sparingly yet still provide the kind of room and ride you've found so comfortable and comforting in our popular full-size Chevys of the past. The car is here. It's called The New Chevrolet. makes it easier to climb into and out of. More trunk room Thetrunk is truly enormous, more than a cubic foot bigger than last year, with a nice flat floor that makes it easy to arrange things. It's one of many pleasant surprises awaiting you in The New Chevrolet. More efficient The New Chevrolet is, by design, a very lean but very strong automobile, with not a trace of flab anywhere on its beautiful body, chassis or frame. And it pays off at the gas pump. In EPA tests, The New Chevrolet is rated at 22 mpg highway 17 mpg city with the new standard Six, auto. trans. and 2.73 axle. Remember, EPA figures are estimates. The actual mileage you get will vary depending on the type of driving you do, your driving habits, your car's condition and available equipment. (In California, EPA mileage figures are lower.) The New Chevrolet. We made it right for the times without making it wrong for the people. You're going to love it. More head room The New Chevrolet stands a little taller than last year's full-size Chevy, which perhaps explains why it looks so very proud in profile. Inside, there's a little more clearance for heads and hats and hairdos, both in the back seat and up front. A new acoustical ceiling helps keep things nice and quiet. More leg room We've increased the rear seat leg room by an inch in The Sedan (below) and by nearly two inches in The Coupe. It will make a significant difference in riding comfort, especially on trips. The straight-up styling of the car Now that's more like it. - ~i~bidsan~~---, /ta R" ~ FLA.

Most importantly, he has to be a good football player." Those thoughts, says FAMU Head Coach Rudy Hubbard, are the guiding principles to which he adheres in selecting team captains for each season. On the 1976 Rattler roster, there are many players who possess traits of leadership. But when the selection process was conducted earlier this year, four names stood out from the rest. Rattler co-captains Cal Burgess, Earl Goodman, Curtis Parnell and Michael Sorey were selected by Coach Hubbard to provide the necessary player leadership, and they have done so admirably. According to Hubbard, other factors in their selections were their individual improvement as players, and their motivation to work on their own during the off-season. "All four are hard workers," said Hubbard. "They did a lot of work on theirown weight-lifting and runningand this affected the whole team." Cal Burgess, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace H. Burgess of Tallahassee, is a senior Business Management major. His hobbies are sports, traveling and pretty girls. Cal is a wide receiver and he is interested in pro football and private business as career options. He wears number 21 on offense. Earl Roland Goodman, defensive end, is the son of Mrs. Raynell Goodman of Tampa. He is a Health and Physical Education major and has his eyes on a career in pro football or teaching. Earl enjoys music and sports -24- in his spare time, and he is a member of Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity, and is number 38 on defense. Curtis Parnell, affectionately called "Pecan," plays deep back for the Rattlers and is a senior Health and Physical Education major. He is the son of Mrs. Lula Mae Russ of Miami. Curtis plays, among other things in his spare time, basketball, softball, pingpong, and tennis. His career choices are professional football, teaching and coaching football. Curt wears number 20 on defense. Michael Sorey, a senior Business Management major, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur H. Sorey of Miami. Mike plays tight end and plans to have careers in pro football and business. He plays basketball, pool, tennis and likes to swim in his spare time, He is number 81 on offense. The Rattlers are fortunate to have four men of their caliber.
