Cotton Bowl Clash

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 8, 1975

Okies and ’Horns to settle feud
By PAT EDMONDSON
Battalion Sports Writer
This Saturday Texas and Ok
lahoma will clash in one of college
football’s greatest rivalries. The
arch enemies will tangle for the 70th
time with the Longhorns leading in
the series, 42-25-2.
The event is as unique as the cir
cumstances surrounding it. The af
fair will be staged in Dallas’ Cotton
Bowl for the 46th consecutive year.
In 1929, officials from both schools
agreed upon the neutral site. Dallas
is geographically halfway between
Austin, Tex. and Norman, Ok
lahoma, and therefore, supposedly
neither team will have a definite
home advantage. The ticket dis
tribution is cut in half, 36,000 ducats
being alloted to each school.
The campaign promises to be
more exciting than in recent years,
although Oklahoma won in a thriller
last year, 16-13. For the first time
since the series was inaugurated in
1900, both squads bring 4-0 records
into the contest. Both have attained
high prominence in the polls. Since
Texas has fallen short the past four
years, Darrell Royal’s crew will be
out for revenge.
The Longhorns are off a 61-7 wal
loping of Utah State last Saturday in
Austin, while Head Coach Barry
Switzer’s Sooners barely squeezed
by Colorado, 21-20, in their Big
Eight conference opener at Nor-
It should be quite an offensive
showing. Texas leads the nation in
rushing, averaging 395 yards a
game. They also hold down the top
spot in scoring and in total offense.
The matchup features the powerful
blasts of fullback Earl Campbell
versus the elusiveness of tailback
Joe Washington.
Campbell, a 230 pound sopho
more from Tyler, has matured into a
solid runner and blocker. He will
undoubtedly receive national hon
ors before he graduates.
Washington, a high hurdling
dancer from Port Arthur, has main
tained a career average of 6.4 yards
per carry in three seasons at OU and
is considered the most feared punt
return threat in the game. He
finished third in Heisman Trophy
balloting last year and could be tops
this season.
The confrontation also produces
two of the premier wishbone opera
tives in the nation, quarterbacks
Marty Akins of UT and Steve Davis
of OU. Both are three year starters
with similar statistics.
The Texas-Oklahoma battle can
be compared with the Michigan-
Ohio State, Auburn-Alabama, and
the U.S.C.-Notre Dame rivalries.
At stake is the coveted Cowboy Hat
Trophy and a possible national
championship. The Sooners have
won 25 games in a row and are a 17
point favorite for the 2:00 p.m.
kick-off.
’Sips move ahead of Ags in poll
Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Woody
Hayes, perhaps mindful of the ex
periences of his last three Ohio
State squads, terms the Buckeyes’
selection as the nation’s No. 1 col
lege football power “a rather pre
carious one now.’’
Told of Ohio State’s ranking after
a coaches’ meeting Tuesday, Hayes
responded, “That means everybody
will be pointing harder at us.
“I feel like the fellow who was
tarred and feathered and ridden out
of town on a rail. He said if it weren t
for the honor, he would just have
soon walked.”
The Buckeyes climaxed their
steady rise in the poll of a nation
wide panel of sports writers and
broadcasters by unseating season-
long leader Oklahoma. Ohio State,
fourth in preseason voting, picked
up 47 of 62 first-place votes to 14 for
the Sooners and owned a 1,178-
1,072 point edge.
It marked the third consecutive
season the Big Ten power has been
No. 1. The Buckeyes paced the
rankings for eight weeks before a
10-10 tie at Michigan in 1973. Last

fall, Michigan State ambushed them
16-13, costing them the national
lead.
Did Hayes learn from those
games?
“You always learn something
from games like those,” replied
Hayes in a deserted team meeting
room. “The thing you have to do is
have consistency. And it’s nearly
impossible to maintain consistency
for 11 games.”
Hayes has called the current Ohio
State schedule, especially the first
part, the toughest of his 25 seasons
with the Buckeyes. Victims have
been Michigan State, Penn State,
North Carolina and UCLA.
“This team has played as well as
any I’ve had up to this point,” said
the coach of three national champ
ions.
Hayes plans to work his squad
hard this week, trying to avoid a
letdown against visiting Iowa Satur
day. The Hawkeyes have lost all
four of their games this season.
Southern California, which con
ceivably could face Ohio State in the
Rose Bowl for the fourth consecu
tive season, maintained third place
and collected the other first-place
ballot.
Nebraska retained No. 4 while
Texas jumped two spots to fifth.
Texas A&M stayed in sixth and
Alabama moved from ninth to
seventh. Michigan rode a victory
over Missouri from 12th to eighth.
Penn State moved from 10th to
ninth and prepares to meet No. 10
West Virginia in an Eastern show
down Saturday.

pitch to Joe Rudi was turned into a

PITTSBURGH — Pinch-hitter
Ed Armbrister’s sacrifice fly drove
in the winning run in the 10th in
ning Tuesday night, giving the Cin
cinnati Reds a 5-3 triumph over the
Pittsburgh Pirates and the National
League pennant.
It was a team finish to a game
that finished a duel of home runs
and a record-equaling strikeout
performance by Pittsburgh rookie
John Candelaria and a last-of-the
ninth Pirates’ rally that sent the
game into extra innings.
The Reds gained their seventh
National League pennant in the
99-year history of the franchise
with a pair of runs off 35-year-old
Pittsburgh reliever Ramon Her
nandez in the top of the 10th.
Cincinnati outfielder Ken Grif
fey startled the Pittsburgh defense
as the leadoff man in the 10th in

bunt in front of the plate and beat
catcher Manny Sanguillen’s throw
to first for a single.
With Cesar Geronimo at bat,
Hernandez committed a balk, al
lowing Griffey to move to second.
