NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 30
Oklahoma and Louisiana State
University followed far different
paths to winning football, and
their meeting in the Sugar Bowl
Monday is a major oddity.
Coach Bud Wilkinson's Okla
homans opened the season with q
reputation of being one of the
great teams of postwar years
Nothing happened all season to
detract from that reputation.
Theirs was a case Of having
everything and proving it 10
straight times.
When the season opened, L. S. U
ranked very near the bottom OF
an unusually weak Southeastern
Conference. And after losing twice,
to Kentucky and Georgia, in its
first four games, enthusiasm was
about dead except with players
and coaches. But just before mid
season L. S. U. whipped North
Carolina, 1877.
From then on, l.. S. U. came
from nowhere to the Sugar Bowl
"a trip unmatched.
With the exception Of the very
modern split T formation, the
Oklahoma team plays like a powe,
of the pre-passing era. Oklahoma
