Everybody in town already is discussing the possibility of another meeting between the Sooners and Aggies, so I am sure it will pay out handsomely, if they should be so forturmate as to go through. By George, you certainly came close to predicting the result of the Missouri-Nebraska game! How about your games with Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Aggies coming up?
