Coming down to the wire in
the Pigskin Prognostications,
the slate this week features
traditional season-ending
rivalries Ohio State-Michigan
and Oklahoma-Nebraska.

Not intimidated by these
colossal clashes, the Proggers
have decided that Michigan will
upset Ohio State and Nebraska
will again top Oklahoma. Both
games will be on national
television, Nebraska on
Thursday and Michigan on
Saturday.

Yale Selected

Another rivalry, the oldest
and most famous, is Yale at
Harvard. Although season
records and other criterion are
useless in this emotional
battle, Yale is a narrow pick
over the Crimson.

Right up there with the big
ones is the South
Carolina-Clemson classic. A
few prophets balked at picking
either team to win this one,
but eventually things came out
pretty evenly in this
non-contest.

North Carolina, headed for
the Sun Bowl, is unanimously
favored to trample Southern
Conference kingpin East
Carolina. Turkey Don Strock
has won the hearts of the
panel, and his Hokie followers
should have no trouble
deepening the woes of Wake
Forest.

Maryland's Terrapins will
travel to the Orange Bowl, not
to play in the New Year's Day
extravaganza, but to take on
Miami University. The majority
of Proggers sees the Terps
getting burnt by the Hurricanes
as well as the tropical sun.

Seers See Cyclones

Iowa State, aroused after
losing any change for a bowl
bid in a 6-5 loss to Missouri,
will have the support of the
panel in its battle against
Oklahoma State.

Texas Tech, bound for the
Sun Bowl also, is picked to
beat Arkansas, which is near
the point of collapse. Michigan
State is an overwhelming
favorite to beat weak
Northwestern.

The only major bowl bid
still undecided is the Big Ten
representative to the Rose
Bowl. This year, for the fifth
straight time, Ohio State and
Michigan clash for the title.
This should also be the fifth
straight year that the home
team has won. The game is in
Columbus.
