Iowa will win, but it should be real
contest. Iowa has had very hard
| schedule to date, and is without q
great deal o. reserve material.
Indiana completes the list of inter-
sectional contests in this area by en-
tertaining Mississippi A. g. NJ, at home
I do not believe that Mississippi A. &
M. will be able to offer serious opposi-
ton.
THERE also are some real quarrels
i here at home. think that one
of the outstanding games of the
year will result when Northwestern and
Minnesota clash. These teams look
evenly matched, both having come
through their contests without serious
| injuries.
This is game in which I hesitate to
pick the winner. I believe Olson will
i shine, although Capt Haas, a fine punt
handler on the Minnesota team, may
nullify his great kicking. This game
looks like a toss-up, with a slight edge
for Minnesota.
The Chi-ago-Il Illinois game is another
corker from the standpoint of tradi-
tional rivalry. Chicago has the SUR
prise team OF the conference this year
1t looks as if Coach Stages tricky Of
fense will cause the young Illinois line
a great deal of trouble Chicago should
win, although I look for Zup to give it
a hard game.
The Wisconsin Ohio State game also
should be quite a contest. The State
team seemed to find itself against Pitts
burgh. While the Panthers made some
ground against Ohio deep in its own
territory, the fast Ohio line was much
too powerful for Pittsburgh when it
penetrated very far.
THE Pittsburgh game also marked the
i return to form of Cramer Ohio S
quarterback, and with Cramer in
form and Vuchinech showing great i'm
provement as a bucker, together with
Capt. Hinchman, left halfback, and
Carroll, Ohio has a formidable back
field. Rosequist, Ohio's young tackle,
of whom great things are expected,
seemed to come into his own and played
great game when he substituted for
Monohan.
Wisconsin's line which has not been
too strong so far this season, Is further
weakened by the loss of Goldenberg,
who is one of the biggest linemen the
team has had. He will be replaced by
Thurner, who has been playing end,
and weighs around 180.
Wisconsins kicking game, woefully
weak at the start of the season, has
been steadily improving, and last week
McGuire'S kicking was very fine. Like
wise against Purdue MCGUIRE and
Schneider compared very favorably with
Moss, who is conceded to be one Of the
best kickers in the conference
1t appears that Wisconsin will have
quite a problem stopping Ohio States
running attack, which gave Pittsburgh
good deal of trouble. 1t also gained
considerable yardage against Michigan
and Wisconsin's line does not look to
be anywhere near as strong as either
Michigan's or Pittsburgh's. However
believe that Wisconsin, if its morale Is
not too badly shattered by the loss OF
Goldenberg, can give Ohio State good
battle, although I do not believe it has
enough class or reserves to hold the
hard driving Ohio team in check fol-
the entire game. Wisconsin has been
woefully weak in reserves all year.
IN the Big Six Kansas State, under
/ "Bo" McMillan's coaching, is dan
gerous team, and will probably score
once or twice on Nebraska. But I be-
lieve Nebraska has too much all-arounc
strength and too we'll balanced squac
| to be taken over.
Oklahoma is fighting her civil wal
with Oklahoma Aggies. The Aggies have
an exceptionally strong team this year
and this should be a very evenly
matched game with Oklahoma prob
ably winning Kansas plays st. Louis
and Kansas should win.
