UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1947
By JIM RAGLIN Daily Kansan Sports Editor
Now that the shouting has died down the question arises "just who will end up champion of the Big Six?" It looks like Kansas and Oklahoma will be hard to stop from sharing another crown.
Missouri showed great improvement over its Colorado performance when it annihilated the Kansas State Wildcats 47 to 7. Missouri has a good offensive both by land and air and its line squashed the Wildcat ground attack by holding the Aggie runners to a net gain of 16-yards. Kansas State picked up 165-vards passing.
While Kansas is meeting a below-par Oklahoma A. and M. team, the Tigers and Oklahoma Sooners will be playing at Columbia. That game, Nov. 15 may decide the conference crown. Just for once we're for Missouri.

Nebraska rose to a new Cornhusker high in holding Notre Dame to a 31 to 0 score. Cooper Rollow covered the game for the University Daily Kansan and said that Novak, last year's Nebraska fullback who wouldn't be stopped, was one of the most powerful players on the field. Rollow is also of the opinion that Evans is a better halfback than any of the Irishmen he saw play that position.
Along that line here is a quotation from Sport Magazine by Harry Wismer, famous football broadcaster:
"The chances are good he won't make any of the gilt-edged All-American teams, but the country isn't likely to have many backs this fall superior to Ray Evans of Kansas. Pro scouts have been keeping tabs on him for a couple of years, and they aren't noted for wasting their time looking at lemons."
"Evans can do just about everything you'd want a back to do. He can't help it if he doesn't play for Notre Dame."
A few more alert sportscasters and writers around the country like Mr Wismer and a true All-American would receive the honors due him. Evans made a believer out of the Tulsa reporters covering the Oklahoma-Kansas battle. They found it hard to believe that the Kansas line-up had so few changes from the same team that Tulsa defeated so soundly last year. They became believers early in the game and one of them said he was glad Tulsa didn't have to play Kansas this year.
Oklahoma still has to defeat any team George Sauer plays on. While attending Nebraska the Jayhawk coach led the Cornhuskers to three victories over the Sooners.
The South Dakota State game served to fire up the Sooners for the Kansas game. The president of Oklahoma university, Dr. George Cross, played guard for the Dakota team in his undergraduate days and Dr. Cross is a favorite of the Sooner squad.
Dan Garza, the nation's leading pass receiver, played against Kansas in 1944. He was a member of the Warrensburg (Mo.) Teachers college eleven that held the Jayhawks to a 13 to 12 win. Garza, a Texas boy, is now playing end for Oregon State.
Oklahomaans joined the Kansans who saw Saturday's game in praising the Kansas line in general and Dick Monroe, Dick Tomlinson, and Otto Schnellbacher in particular. Monroe played a terrific defensive game despite a game leg. He was not outclassed by Rapacz, the great Sooner center.
Tomlinson did a sensational job of filling in for the injured Joe Crawford. Dick stepped into a starting role against one of the toughest teams in the country and he was a defensive power. The Sooners think that Schnellbacher is tops as a pass receiver, something any Kansas fan could have told them long ago. They were surprised and impressed by the whole Kansas team. None of the Sooner roots expected to see a Big Six squad bottle up their star, Jack Mitchell, and hold their team to a tie.
