Big 7 Toasts Cyclones for Tiger Upset
By UNITED PRESS
Kansas State's Wildcats held three straight Big Seven conference victories and were half-way to an unbeaten record today, but Iowa State claimed the laurels as "team of the week" by virtue of its stunning 13-6 upset of Missouri's Tigers.
Oklahoma, as usual, was brilliant in its expected rout of Kansas in the defending champions' initial conference start, 45-0, and Nebraska's in-and-out Huskers ralled to avert a surprise loss against Mimi, Portland, the Huskers on 20-16, for their first win of the new campaign.
Touchdown runs of 80, 65, 60, and 53 yards highlighted Kansas State's 28-14 triumph over Colorado and set the stage for the test of all tests for Coach Bill Meek's rejuvenated Manhattan gridders.
Kansas State will step outside the conference to oppose a strong Wichita university team of the Missouri Valley conference next Saturday. Then, the following weekend, Kansas State crashes head-on into Bud Wilkinson's Oklahoma champions.
This climatic clash of the 1953 season will be played in Manhattan and all indications are that a sell-out crowd will assemble for the festivities.
Oklahoma next Saturday will take on Colorado, beaten in three straight conference games, and only a surprise of the biggest proportions would keep the Oklahoma kingpins from entering their Oct. 31 game with Kansas State with an unblemished record.
In the last seven years, Oklahoma has never lost a Big Seven conference game, winning five clear titles and sharing two others. And on the basis of performances thus for this year the Sooners are odd-on choices to keep that slate clean throughout the 1953 campaign.
Besides the Colorado-Oklahoma game next Saturday, the week's bill includes Iowa State vs. Drake at Des Moines; Southern Methodist against Kansas at Lawrence; Nebraska at Missouri, and Wichita at Kansas State.
Iowa State gave a spirited performance in upsetting Missouri coming from behind to win.
Missouri had counted a touch down in the second period on a Tony Scardino pass to Gervie Burson in the end zone. But Iowa State, a team with an obviously stronger desire to win, bounced back with a second half air attack that produced a 7-6 margin by the end of the third period.
TV Game Will Confuse Bottle Fan
He'll be watching four games at once—in such widely scattered points as Princeton, N.J., Memphis, Tenn., Champaign, Ill., and Iowa City.
It's an unprecedented panoramic pickup being staged by the National Broadcasting company to bring the fans the highlights of the Princeton-Cornell, Mississippi-Arkansas, Illinois-Syracuse, and Iowa-Indiana games.
New York — (U,P)— Something is bound to give Saturday when Notre Dame, the nation's number one team, meets Georgia Tech, possessor of the nation's longest unbeaten string, in a contest that is not only the football feature of the week, but the biggest game of the year so far.
Irish- Engineers Game Is Biggest So Far
Georgia Tech, which hasn't tasted defeat in its last 31 games, will be the underdog in the battle at South Bend, Ind., and the favored Fighting Irish, unbeaten in three games this year, realize that they must snap the Engineers' streak which dates back to 1950 if they are to insure their top perch in the nation.
Michigan State, winner of 28 straight games, puts another big streak on the line for the benefit of punchless Purdue, which hasn't won a game in four starts this season. Along with their 29th straight conquest, the Spartans will be shooting for their fourth Big Ten conference triumph.
Southern California, with visions of an ultimate bid to the Rose Bowl, will be favored over erratic California in the feature game of the Pacific Coast conference schedule while Texas and Rice tangle in a Southwest conference thriller.
The week's slate lists several intersectional contests, high-lighted of course, by the Notre Dame-Georgia Tech game. In other such contests, Penn State opposes Texas Christian; Illinois faces Syracuse; Arkansas plays host to Mississippi; Marquette meets College of Pacific, and Kentucky clashes with Villanova.
In other Big Ten battles, Iowa, aiming for its first conference victory, meets Indiana, in the same boat; Wisconsin faces Ohio State, each seeking its second conference triumph, and Michigan meets Minnesota in their annual "Little Brown Jug" game.
The Missouri-Nebraska game is the big game on the Big Seven conference slate for Saturday while Colorado suffers a cuffed game in Colorado at the same conference.
Other Midwest encounters that should attract attention are games between Northwestern a n d Pittsburgh, Kansas State and Wichita, and Iowa State and Drake.
Auburn, coming off its beating from Georgia Tech, takes on Tulane in a southeastern conference meeting, while Florida faces Louisiana State, and Alabama meets Mississippi State in other conference tilts. Texas A&M and Baylor, each unbeaten this season, will play in a Southwest conference clash.
