THE BATTALION
Rams, Vikings favored in NFC play
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK UP) — The Los
Angeles Rams and Minnesota
Vikings will battle it out for the
National Football Conference
championship this year and, if
Joe Kapp can still smile then, he
may get a last meek laugh when
the Rams topple the Vikings.
Kapp is the former Minnesota
quarterback who played out his
option, became a free agent,
asked for a reported $1.25 mil
lion contract to re-sign and sud
denly found himself without even
a sideline pass.
There is some question wheth
er the Vikings can win with Gary
Cuozzo replacing him at quarter
back, but the guess here is that
the defense-oriented Minnesota
club can win its own division and
move through the semifinal play
offs before losing to the Rams.
Here’s the way the three divi
sion races might wind up:
Eastern — 1, Dallas. 2, New
York Giants. 3, Washington. 4,
St. Louis. 5, Philadelphia.
Central — 1, Minnesota. 2,
Green Bay. 3, Detroit. 4, Chica
go.
Western — 1, Los Angeles. 2,
Atlanta. 3, San Francisco. 4, New
Orleans.
Under the new Playoff system,
the Eastern Dallas and Western
Los Angeles champions would
meet in one game with the Cen
tral Minnesota champion taking
on the second-place team in the
conference with the best record.
New York is a strong candidate
for that spot.
That would likely result in a
replay of last year’s Los An-
geles-Minnesota title match —
only with a different winner, the
Rams moving on to the Super
Bowl against the American Con
ference champion on Jan. 17.
In the division races, the Rams
appear to be the only certainty.
The Vikings likely will be chal
lenged by both Green Bay and
Detroit while the Cowboys may
face stiff competition from both
the Giants and Washington.
Los Angeles seems to be clearly
the class of the Western sector
with quarterback Roman Gabriel
an outstanding passer and leader.
The players also are dedicated to
Coach George Allen, who many
feel will not be rehired — win
or lose.
Developing defense, with No. 1
draft choice John Small now op
erating at defensive tackli,
should bring the Falcons in setjame
ond with the Saints and iSen
bringing up the rear.

NEW YORK (A>) — Despite all
the words written about the I
formation and the multiple of
fense system, the name of the
game in pro football is defense
— and that’s why the Kansas
City Chiefs will wind up in the
Super Bowl again.
The Chiefs have it all — from
talent to the I, but what’s most
important is that they have it
defensively too as Minnesota
found out in the Super Bowl last
January. The Chiefs led the
American Football League in 18
defensive categories last season
— and are capable of a repeat.
In the run for the title, how
ever, there will be tougher con
tenders than before with Balti
more and Cleveland joining Oak
land and the New York Jets in
the title chase in the New Amer
ican Conference, composed of the
Colts, Browns and Pittsburgh
from the old NFL and the 10
former AFL clubs.
Here’s the way the division
races might wind up:
Eastern — 1, Baltimore. 2,
New York Jets. 3, Miami. 4, Buf
falo. 5, Boston.
Central—1, Cleveland. 2, Pitts
burgh. 3, Houston. 4, Cincinnati.
Western — 1, Kansas City. 2,
Oakland. 3, San Diego. 4, Denver.
In the new playoff system, the
Eastern champion (Baltimore)
will meet the Western champion
(Kansas City) while the Central
champion (Cleveland) takes on
the second-place team with the
best record. That likely will be
Oakland.
The Chiefs and Raiders should
win those semifinals, meeting in
the championship game just as
last year — and it looks from
here as if Kansas City has
enough to get the job done and
return to the Super Bowl, this
year at Miami, Jan. 17.
The Western race looms as a
three-team race with Kansas
City, Oakland and San Diego all
capable of winding up in the top
spot. In the East, Baltimore,
Miami and the Jets figure. In
the Central Division, the Browns
might find stubborn competition
from both Pittsburgh and Hous
ton.
The Chiefs should have the
edge in the West with their de
fensive unit, anchored by middle
linebacker Willie Lanier, getting
the edge over Oakland’s, minus
defensive end Ike Lassiter, who
was traded to Boston.
The Chargers, with Lance Al-
worth back, figure to again be
explosive offensively, but can’t
match the other two defensively.
Neither can Denver.
In the East, it’s a virtual toss-
up between Baltimore, Johnny
Unitas and the Colts’ rugged de
fensive and New York, Joe Na-
math and the Jets’ underrated
defense. The edge would appear
to be the Colts’ with Unitas’
mind clearer than Namath’s and
all-league defensive end -Gerry
Philbin lost to the Jets for at
least half the season.
The Dolphins, with quarter
back Bob Griese given a stand
out receiver in Paul Warfield,
could be serious contenders.
Neither Buffalo, with O. J. Simp
son, nor Boston figure.
The Central Division could
have the tightest struggle if
rookie quarterback Terry Brad
shaw can do in the regular sea
son what he has been able to do
in the preseason for the Steelers.
But the best guess is that the
steady Browns will be on top
when it’s all over.
The Oilers, with a new quarter
back in Charley Johnson and a
legitimate breakaway threat in
Jerry Levia^, also could cause
trouble. The Bengals, with Greg
Cook sidelined, will bring up the
Light workout
for Ag gridders
The Aggies held a light work
out Wednesday in preparation
for Saturday’s game against
LSU in Baton Rouge.
A heavy all-day rain prevented
the Aggies from working on na
tural grass as coach Gene Stall
ings had planned. LSU is the
first of three A&M opponents
which does not have artificial
turf.
Wednesday’s practice session
stressed goal line defense and
pass protection.
“We didn’t protect our quarter
back well against Wichita,”
Stallings said. “We’re going to
have to do a lot better against
LSU.”
Defensive end Barb Hinnant,
who injured a knee in the 41-14
win over Wichita, was back in
practice gear, but linebacker
Steve Luebbehusen is still both
ered by a bad case of shin splints
and is questionable for Satur
day’s game.
