Middle guard Spencer Dreischarf has graduated, but according to Restic Sandy Tennant and Fred Smith will be more flexible than Dreischarf at playing both inside linebacker and middle guard, as Harvard switches back and forth from five-and-four-man fronts. Veteran Mark Ferguson returns to inside linebacker with more defensive playing time than anyone except Barger while Jim Westra and Bob Kristoff will provide some linebacking depth...
...defense is more questionable than the offense. Harvard will sorely miss its outstanding interior linemen Spencer Dreischarf and Mark Steiner; and the rover back, Captain Dave Ignacio, who led the team in both tackles and interceptions, is irreplaceable. Defensive back Steve Golden, probably the hardest hitting tackler on the team, will move to Ignacio's spot, but he is too slow to really effectively handle the pass defense responsibilities of the rover back. As a whole, the defensive secondary desperately needs some speed, and if it doesn't get it, pass coverage may again prove to be Harvard's most...
George Karras, Harvard assistant coach, contests this opinion, saying that Dreischarf was pursuing a running back and Golden was just doing...
...films prove little. Two plays are in question, both in the first quarter of Saturday's game. One is on a faked bootleg, when Pollock is tackled away from the main action by cornerback Steve Golden. On the other play, Spencer Dreischarf obviously steps on Pollock, who is on the ground after pitching out to Rick Klupchak...
...linebackers are paced by lettermen Jack Neal and Mark Ferguson, with Dreischarf and Ignacio joining them for a four-man mid-line on some sets. Ignacio floats between linebacker and defensive back in a capacity tagged "adjuster." In the deep backfield, he works with returning starter Steve Golden, a junior. Several other backs are possible starters on defense; they include junior Barry Malinowski, seniors Tobin Harvey and Tim Bilodeau, and juniors Mike Murr (switched from offense this week) and Wes Schofner...
