the south to see the game. Down
there the experts had hailed Ala
bama as a sure victor, and had
Fordham won, it would have been
considered a great upset in that
section.
Is there any such thing as a
true upset? Lou Little, coach at
Columbia, is one authority who
doesn't think there is. He is in
clined to give the winning team
credit for being the better team,
even if for only one afternoon. And
one afternoon is all that counts
in football because two teams don't
engage in a best two of three or
four of seven series.
In case you decide not to buy a
football expert to have in your
house and for your very own, you
will have to make your picks, SO
let me give you a tip: football is
a game divided into four quarters
and no sense.
