HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Aug. 31).
love's on your agenda this year. By now you should have a clue as to whom your emotions will be directed. Your life is disrupted in December, but by January you should be discussing future dreams. Get to work on them in February and you'll be ready to grant your mate's request by March. Romance and travel are linked in May, and that's a great time for commitment. A hassle in July can turn out well. It's just that more work is required.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7
Today's a good day for making money. This condition will increase as the day goes on, so while the usual advice is to take
action early in the morning, now just the opposite is true. Hold off until later. Your best time to ask for a raise may come after the work is done, not before.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7
Things will start falling together today, rather than falling apart, which is what it seems like they've been doing
the last few days. Since this condition is most likely to be in effect by dinner-time, why not plan a little celebration then for what you've achieved during the past few days?
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5
It's time to get your financial affairs in order. You and your partner or roommate want to buy something nice for your
home. You need to pool your resources to do this. It's going to work fine, after you get past the argument about what you both can live with.
Cancer (June 22- July 22) — Today is a.5
A partner can show you where you're missing something important. You've
aeen doing everything you know how to do, and doing it well. What you're overlooking is something you didn't even know about. That's why there are lots of us on this planet — so we can point these things out to one another.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7
If you're looking for a better job, get your applications out today. There's an opportunity right now to use your natural
abilities more fully and make a lot more money. This could be the job of your dreams, but you're not going to get it by sitting on your talent. Get busy.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6
Other people's needs and wants will take up most of your day, but you can schedule private time tonight. Be particular about whom you ask
to join you. An old friend would be best, somebody you don't have to explain everything to. Relax in the fond memories even as you make new ones.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Today is a 5
A problem at home has had you stymied because it required too much money. Well, today you could find a solution. It could

involve a trade or fixing something you already have. Give up your idea of how it should be done and get creative. This could turn out to be fun.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 6
You'll have the opportunity to make a lot more money, possibly by taking on more responsibility. If you're like most Sagit-

The confusion of the last few days is clearing, and it looks like smooth sailing ahead. It's easy now to figure out what needs to be done
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Today is a 7
You'll run into at least one little problem in making that happen, but after all you've been through lately, it'll seem like nothing.
You've got to get organized today. You may get a friend to help, but don't pick someone who's even more casual about

practical matters than you are. You'll want to ask a critical, persnickety, detail-oriented person. In fact, if you can hire him or her to organize you so you can go play, that would be an excellent investment.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6
A group meeting will go well today. One of you is going to have a really good idea and inspire the rest. You might even
avoid a potential problem by figuring it out ahead of time. The whole amount of creativity equals way more than the sum of the parts. You guys are awesome together.

Injury may sideline 'Husker quarterback for UAB game
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — What appeared to be a slight knee injury for heralded Nebraska quarterback Bobby Newcombe could be more serious than initially thought.
Nebraska quarterbacks coach Turner Gill said that Newcombe was listed as doubtful for next week's game against Alabama-Birmingham because of a slight tear to his posterior cruciate ligament.
Newcombe suffered the injury in the third quarter of Saturday's 56-27 victory over Louisiana Tech. At first, the injury was thought to be only a knee sprain and Newcombe continued to play.
Newcombe, a sophomore who played wingback and returned punts last season, was making his debut at quarterback against the Bulldogs. He was hurt on an option play after pitching to Dan Alexander, who scored on a 4-yard run.
"He said he got hit or fell on the knee," Gill said. "After that play, he came over to the sideline and said he had some pain or stiffness
in the knee. He still played one or two more series."
Gill said the staff expected to know more by today about
Newcombe's condition. He said that the injury wouldn't require surgery but that if Newcombe's knee swelled, next week's start will probably go to freshman Eric Crouch.
"We'll just see how it goes," Gill said. "We're saddened by it. Bobby had an outstanding ball game against Louisiana Tech."
Newcombe completed 9 of 10 passes for 168 yards, including a 46-yard touchdown to Sheldon Jackson on Nebraska's third play. Newcombe also carried 12 times for 12 yards.
Crouch took over the offense midway through the fourth quarter Saturday. Gill said that at the time, coaches just wanted Crouch to get some snaps.
Although Crouch redshirted last season, Gill said the coaching staff
is confident he could step in immediately.
"We feel very comfortable if we have to go with Eric Crouch as our starter against A l a b m a - Birmingham," Gill said.
Newcombe: Status for next games is up in the air.

introduced and sophomore Jay Runny. The Cornhuskers also have junior Frankie London, who backed up Scott Frost last season and was listed as the top quarterback going into spring practice before losing out to Newcombe and Crouch.
Gill said he was unsure whether London would return to quarterback duty.
"I haven't really thought about that," he said. "In the back of my mind, yeah, we've got Frankie London and he has played quarterback. But there's been no decision."
Seminoles set to battle Aggies
The Associated Press
R. C. Slocum.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Although Chris Weinke will start for the first time in nearly nine years, the Florida State quarterback knows exactly what to expect in tonight's Kickoff Classic.
"They will come after me. They know I have no game experience," said Weinke, the 26-year-old sophomore set to lead the No.4 Seminoles against No.14 Texas A&M at Giants Stadium.
"I think it's really going to test these young players of ours," Slocum said.
Weinke, though, has a team loaded with stars such as wide receiver Peter Warrick and tailback Travis Minor, and Bobby Bowden, who begins his 23rd season as coach of the Seminoles.
"If they bring everyone and blitz us, they're going to leave someone open. And we have a lot of big-play guys." Weinke said.
That's what worries Aggies coach
"They don't have any idea about what they're fixing to get into."
The Aggies are coming off a 9-4 season that ended with losses to Nebraska in the Big 12 title game and UCLA in the Cotton Bowl. The Seminoles, ranked second behind Ohio State, were 11-1 last season and had a run at the national title until losing to Florida in the final game of the regular season. This is the 11th straight season Florida State starts the season ranked among the top four teams.
Florida State is favored by two touchdowns, and even Slocum sounds resigned to an season-opening loss.
prised if Florida State beats us because they beat just about everyone they've played in the last 10, 11 years," Slocum said. "We're going to make this a positive experience."
Whether they do depends on a defense led by linebacker Dat Nguyen and an offense featuring running backs Dante Hall and Sirr Parker, plus six other returning starters.
"I don't think anyone would be sur
"I wish they didn't have him," Bowen said of Nguyen, a 61-yard, 213-pound inside linebacker who had a record-setting 20 tackles against UCLA.
Brandon Stewart is back for his final season at Texas A&M. Stewart threw for 1,360 yards and 10 touchdowns in 1997.
Both teams are making their second appearance in the Kickoff Classic: Texas A&M lost to Nebraska 23-14 in the 1988 game and the Seminoles beat Kansas 42-0 in 1993 en route to their national title season.
