"We've been bigger than most people we've played this year," said the jun- close ones there I know we can win this weekend, too, if we play well," he said. Outside of big Dana Directo, the Hawaii defense doesn't have many big names like it has in the past in the likes of Al Noga, etc But Fort said that wont make the job any easier. "Basically, they are not very big, but they are really aggressive and hard hitting," he said of the 'Bow defense. "They just come at you and come at you they never quit. That's one thing with Hawaii they'll keep coming at you for the whole game. 295-pou- nd ior. "So people have been trying to go around us all year. If we do a good job on picking that up and helping out, we'll be all right. "They'll probably try to blitz some, too. What we have to do there is pick it up early. If we stop it early, they aren't likely to keep doing it." , said he and his teammates aren't doing anything different to prepare for the game. "It's not that big of a is they play the option," Dixon said. "If we play the option (pitch), they can pass pretty well off it. So we can't come up too fast and we have to be sharp on our reads."

Of that problem, Dixon said, "We're getting better since it has been brought to our attention by the coaches." Dixon said the time change won't affect him and added that he didn't believe it would affect his teammates. When Utah travelled to Hawaii, the media made a big deal of the Utes' special preparations Another problem, Dixon said, is that the Cougar defense has had an intensity lapse during several games. "We need to be concerned about our intensity. Our defense has been taking a quarter off each game," Dixon said. "This is a game where we for the time change (four hours). By RICK WARNER lem.

AP Football Writer There's no truth to the rumor that Pittsburgh will airlift its players onto the field Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium. It would be understandable, though, given what happened to Southern California last week and Miami last year. Both teams were involved in pregame fights with the Fighting Irish in the narrow tunnel leading from the locker rooms to the field. Coach Lou Holtz has vowed to team gets resip if his into another such brawl. But his biggest worry is the fight that will take place on the field against the seventh-ranke-d Panthers, who are off to their best start since "Of course, I wouldn't mind having a home game with them, either.

The Irish are but they appear vulnerable against good passing teams like Pittsburgh. Notre Dame's pass defense has given up an average of 307 yards in its last three games, and 13 of the 15 touchdowns scored against the team this season have been through the air. Pitt's Alex Van Pelt has already thrown for 300 yards twice mis year. He'll do it again Saturday as the Panthers, who are underdogs, snap Notre Dame's winning streak. ..
