The Sooners landed 51 first-place votes and 1,108 points from a nationwide panel of 56 sports writers and broadcasters. Benefiting by the Alabama loss were Michigan, Ohio State and Southern California.

Rounding out the Top Ten were No. 6 Nebraska, Auburn, Notre Dame, Texas A&M and Penn State. Missouri and Penn State are the only members of the first regular- season Top Ten to have seen action.

Tennessee Associated Press John Jeffrey of Overland Park, younger brother of last year All- Southwest quarterback Neal, got a chance Saturday to show his stuff in Waco as the Baylor Bears sought to strengthen their quarterback posi tion. Jeffrey worked as backup man for Charlie Parker who assumed the quarterback duties last Saturday after starting quarterback Mark Jackson suffered a shoulder separa tion in the game with Mississippi. Coach Grant Teaff said, “John was throwing the hall much better today, and that’s where he needed to improve. The Bruins looked at some of the Auburn offensive plays during Wednesday s workout in prepara tion for the game with the Tigers Sept. 20. National League Standings Texas Christian University Coach Jim Shofner in Fort Worth says he still has not decided on his starting quarterback for the season opener Friday against the University of Texas-Arlington. Shofner said senior Lee Cook probably will see some action in the game, but he is still recovering from a knee injury. 1 see no way Lee could be read\ to cut loose and plan an entire game," Shofner said. I'd like to play him early, then get him out of there. The backup man is sophomore Jimmy Dan Elzner who recenth underwent ankle surgery.
