Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-10-03
Athenan Have Best Chance of Career Beat Vanderbilt This Year
VANDY WEAKER THAN USUAL, GEORGIA STRONGER

of Georgia, and Hardage, OF Van
derbilt, are as wonderful runners
as the game has developed in many
a day. Each man Is the offensive
mainstay Of his club. McWhorter
is the better man Of the two.
though he has not the vast amount
of superiority over Hardage that
many Of his supporters credit him
with.
T \ the matter OF strength Of line
1t Is hard to say where the adj
vantage will lie. Vanderbilt's line
is not up to the usual mark 1t
hasn't a vast deal of weight and IN
knowledge OF the game and gen
eral ability it is we'll below the
Vanderbilt standard.
This is sort OF a rambling esti-
mate OF the two teams and maybe
1t brings you back to the same
place you started from. Studying
the situation carefully and consid-
ering the two teams, player by
anybody to give valid reason for
picking Vanderbilt as the sure win
ner.
The strongest asset Vanderbilt
has is McGugin. Nobody pretends
to explain why he is a better coach,
in point of games won, than any
other man who ever came into the
South. He doesn't know as much
about the theory of the game as
many another. He wasn't a par
ticularly good player in his col
lege days. He Is no deep student
Of the sport. He has no fancy
methods. He doesn't work his men
very hard.
And yet he wins.
And just for the very reason that
McGugin's Vanderbilt teams have
usually won in the past it is sur
missed that they will win again
McGugin knows better than any
body else that Vanderbilt's game
with Georgia in Atlanta will be one
of its toughest this season. And he
will prepare for 1t as carefully as
he dares.
1t will be one of the big games
OF the year in the South, and At
lanta Is lucky to have drawn it.
If Georgia can win it, it will do a
lot toward breaking the football
trust" and will put football on a
better basis in the South.
You have my word for it, though,
If Georgia wins it will play better
Dali than it ever played before in
all its history. And that might
easily happen So the thing is in
teresting.

: Vandy Team Has Been :
: Terror From the Start :

In taekIing the comnnodorss .
Georgia takes a hack at one Of .
the strongest teams, year in and .
year out, that the country has .
ever known-a team that almost .
always ranks near the top. Q
Vandy has been playing foot .
ball for % years and in that time .
has scored 1878 points to it's OPP Q
ponents' 800, OF the games played .
Vanderbilt has won 774, lost 81 Q
and tied 10. One noticeable fact .
is that Vanderbilt has never been .
beaten by an Eastern team. The .
. Commodores played Yale, the .
Navy and the Indians Vanderbilt .
has defeated it's ancient rivals, the .
. Sewanee Tigers, fifteen times. Sc o
vance was returned the winner six .
. times, while twice the score was .
tied. Q
An idea of what the Commo- Q
dores have done under tho Nc .
Gugin regime can be gathered by .
the scores of the years since he .
has been coaching: .
