And I have seen countless times that big favo rites have been extended so that they had to keep their first line players in all the way.” Royal would certainly like to rest his four-touchdown favorite regulars as much as possible with Oklahoma looming on the horizon. Oklahoma has won the last four meetings between the rivals. There’s also Oklahoma Coach Barry Switze r’s reference to coaches who would rather listen to guitar pickers than recruit and Royal’s reply that he knew who Switzer was talking about. And there’s the polygraph issue where both schools have announced they’ve had lie detector tests on re cruiting. And Royal’s challenge to Switzer - so far unanswered - to swap each other’s polygraph experts. “I am telling our players that we have got to play our next football game before we think about anybody else and as a coach I have got to do the same thing,” says Royal. Elsewhere, Arkansas is a 28-point pick over Texas Christian in a Southwest Conference joust at Little Rock; unbeaten and 11th ranked West Virginia is a six-point nod over Southern Methodist at Dallas; sixth-ranked Texas A&M is an 18- point pick over unbeaten Kansas State on the road; Baylor is a field goal selection over South Carolina away; and powerful Oklahoma State is a 10-point nod over Texas Tech. Baylor’s 18th ranked Bears are the only other unbeaten SWC team remaining—besides the “Horns and the Aggies. The South Carolina coach is Jim Carlen, who led Texas Tech to vic tories over Baylor four out of his five years with the Red Raiders. “This will be another severe chal lenge to our young men,” said Baylor Coach Grant Teaff. “We have played three fine football teams and we feel lidatesof gs 18 point favorites Associated Press tnic- Ved- idge trril- page i the N E W YOR K — For years mothers |ave been telling their sons to eat lieir breakfast so they could become Big football players. It looks like that Bdvice was more than just another ■Id wives’ tale. ■ The heartland of America— home pfthe Big 8— produces the breakfast Bf champions and the champions of Bollege football. Last year, Ok lahoma ended the year No. 1 and Biat’s where the Sooners are right as at The ‘ring urns exas and leral >een nent The rest of the Big 8, which boasts acre top-rated teams than any other onference in the country, isn’t very 3i behind, giving the grain capital of he United States a strong claim to ootball capital as well. The South shall rise again, but not his year, since it only has one team, Uabama, in the Top 10. The Crim- an Tide ranks No. 9 while Florida is Wo. 20. TheBigTen has Ohio State, No. 2, and Michigan, No. 12, but the rest of the league is still in another league. It’s the same story in the Pacific 8, where USC is No. 3, UCLA is now 13 and the rest of the league is out somewhere in the Pacific. But then there is the Big 8, a pre season training camp for the pros, which can claim No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 4 Nebraska, No. 5 Missouri, No. 15 Oklahoma State and No. 19 Col orado. All these teams are undefeated, as is unranked Kansas State. The also- rans in the Big 8, Iowa State and Kansas, own 2-1 records for the only losses suffered by the league before it starts its intra-league head knock ing. That happens this Saturday when Oklahoma hosts Colorado in a Big 8 shootout of awesome offensives. The defending national champion Soon ers’ wishbone has broken opposing defenses for 128 points in three games while Colorado’s Buffaloes d by and rrillo Intramural rodeo have roamed the range for 113. If these two offenses ever get on the field together, it would be like rubbing two big matchsticks to gether. / The Buffaloes’ defense, although not exacdy extinct, is still a bit sus pect, and that means the Sooners will continue to roll, outpointing Colorado 42-28 in a battle of brawl ing heavyweights.

Wildcat Coach Ellis Rainsberger says of the Aggies, “They are big and physical, yet they are quick and fast. I’m impressed with their intensity and aggressiveness.” The Aggies were flying high and unbeaten when they visited Kansas last year and took a whipping from the Jay hawks. “Our players are well aware of what happened in that state last year, ” says Aggie Coach Emory Bol lard.
