"The first two drives (vs. UM) had nothing to do with the quar- terback and not converting, Robert Maci, who played line- backer and defensive end vs. the Wolverines' spread attack, turned in a career performance, with five tack- les, two for loss and a forced fumble. "He's a hybrid player for us, MACI'S DAY Tibesar said, "and I thought he played a great game. He caused as much havoc as anyone up in the front. He played very fast and " aggressive and was sure of his run fits. We're glad we got him, and he does give us some ver- satility because he can stand up.
