Rain Haunts Tigers.
Old Jupiter Pluvius, mythical
rain god who has haunted the Ti
ger workouts this week, again
cast his spell over the Tiger work
out yesterday. Forced inside by
showers, the Bengals concentrated
on mock scrimmage with pass de
fense the leading concern.
Maurice "Red" Wade, Vernon
Bowen, and Leo Mills, second
team backfield men, were still un
able to engage in heavy Jrill.
However, Coach Don Faurot in
sisted that the three sub back
fielders would be available Sat
urday. Top sports writers over the
country were speculating today on
the possible outcome of the cru
cial tilt. Jack Cuddy, top notch'
United Press scribe, gave Missouri
the edge because the Bengals !
"have more scoring punch. Harry
Ferguson, United Press sports edi
tor, selected Missouri, comment
ing "Aren't there any easy ones
anywhere this week?"
Bob Steuber, driving Bengal
wingback, Is leading the Big Six
scoring derby with 27 points.
Eckern, Wade, and Ice, other Mis
sourians, rank third and fourth

By Bob Miller mgjf
With the Big Six title more than likely at stake and with five of
the conference teams in action, football will take on added importance
tomorrow. . .Kansas State is laying out in anticipation of the Husker
game a week hence.
In the feature role will be the Huskers and Tigers. . .This is the
game that everyone predicts will produce the conference champs but
there are several angles to look into before a probable winner can be
picked. There are many things that will come into this tilt.
In the last five years the Huskers have held a victory edge over
the Tigers and the Missourians are burning for revenge. . .Last year
with Pitching Paul Christman in his last year, Mizzou planned to drop
Nebraska but got their hopes dashed to the ground by the Husker'a
ground force, 20-7... After the defeat Coach Don Faurot commented,
"That is the strongest Nebraska team that I have seen since I came
to Missouri."
Add to the fact that the Tigers are pointing with all their burning
power to the fact that they have plenty of material well under control
and it looks like a nigh-unbeatable combination. . .In Bob Steuber and
Harry Ice they have two of the finest backs in the conference and
when these two get started off the T formation they are nigh unstop
pable (if we may coin a word) . . .These two have a reputation for long
run, take for example several runs over 60 yards in length against
Iowa State but as sort of a prediction, we don't think that there will
be many long runs Saturday, not with George Abel and Al Zikmund
in there.
With the Huskers employing the T to some extent and the ume
being true of Mlnou, it looks like one of two things. .. Either the final
score will be high and close or it will be very low and close but there
will be no in-between score... The team on top in our book will be the
Huskers call It blind confidence if you will... But we've seen Nebras
ka at work this week.
Gone was the Joshing, the smirking, the good-natured bantering
...Gone was the overconfidence and the betting on how many touches
would be pcored against the Hoosiers. . .Instead of all these, there was
concentrated effort with the backs hitting harder and the line battling
consistently. . .It is this combination that will take the Huskers to vic
tory down at Columbia tomorrow. . .We hope.
Batting around Into other Big tlx camps we find another foot
ball game on tap that should be interesting to watch. .. Kansas U. and
Iowa State will mix It up to determine who will head the conference
second division. .. Iowa State on the basis of the showings ?jalnst Ne
braska and Missouri will be favored in a close tilt.
Oklahoma takes on Santa Clara and all indications are that the
Sooners will have a tough time in this one. . .In the game of the week,
Minnesota takes on Michigan for first place in National ratings... The
Gophers will be favored a slight bit but we go on record as saying
that Michigan has a very easy chance to upset the dope.
As we see it, Minnesota has been coasting through the season
merely on pre-seaon publicity and In my book, the Gophers haven't
turned in any too-impressive victory. . .Michigan led by Tom Kuzma
have gone up to the top the hard way with their defeat of Northwest
ern, Saturday, the hardest. . .Ever sine we picked Pitt over Michigan
by two touchdowns and the final score waa Michigan 40-Pltt 0, we
have felt something of a moral obligation to Tommy Harmon's former.
With games like these on tap, the amount of aspirin consumed
over the week-end should mount and we wouldn't be surprised If we
irsarf a good portion of the total. . .
