Stick With Southern


Stick With Southern
Although Southern was tied
once this season and Morgan and
Maryland State went through the
season united and undefeated, this
column still picks Southern as
the No. l team in the nation.
Considering the present Bowl
lineup, this column is sorry that
Southern has not been picked for
one of the big showdown games.
this should be the year the Cats
reported to the coast to play San
Francisco which has better team
than it did last year.
Fisk will play in the Fruit bowl
against San Francisco State. Fisk
does not rate as high on this col
umn's list as it might on others
the schedule was not there.
Southern's biggest weakness ap-
pears to be it's passing attack Aeri-
al games of Morgan and West
Virginia State appear to be more
efficient. Both could rate over
Southern, but since the Cats are
getting better with each game =
well!
On paper Morgan seems to rate
slightly better than West Virgin
ia State. The Bears have a slight.
ly better offensive and defensive
record, thanks to the Yellow
Jackts' tie with Virginia State :
which Morgan wallopped.
Maryland State appears to be
the mightiest statistically speaking
but after all a schedule is a SEIZED
ule. The schools supporters claim
that the CIAA led by Morgan il
in a plot to deny the school a frs
class gridiron schedule. 1t may b
so.
If the Raiders can get into
bowl game they may have a BIZ
chance to prove themselves. Thi
column would like to see the Raid
ers meet Southern in the Vulcal
bowl in Birmingham, Ala, Jan
2.
Wherefore played the TOUCHES
