season with a 27-9 victory over
Louisiana State last weekend,
took advantage of several major
upsets last Saturday to take over
the No. 1 spot in the first weekly
ratings of the United Press Inter
national’s Board of Coaches rat
ings.
The Fighting Irish were ranked
fourth in the pre-season ratings.
They took over first place on the
strength of 11 first-place votes and
567 points from the 42 coaches
who comprise the ratings board.
Notre Dame, however, will
have precious little time to enjoy
the No. 1 spot. The Fighting Irish
visit Ann Arbor Saturday to meet
Michigan, which was ranked No. 1
in the pre-season ratings only to
drop to No. 12 following its shock
ing loss to Wisconsin Saturday.
Right on the Irish’s heels is
Southern California, which took
over the No. 2 spot after posting a
43-7 victory over Tennessee in its
season opener. The Trojans re
ceived 10 first-place votes and
accumulated 560 points.
Under the UPI ratings system,
each team is awarded 15 points for
a first-place vote, 14 for a second-
place vote and down to 1 point for
a 15th-place vote.
Rounding out the Top 10 are
No. 6 Texas, No. 7 Pittsburgh,
No. 8 Ohio State, No. 9 North
Carolina and No. 10 UCLA.
Alabama, upset by Georgia
Tech last Saturday, heads the
second 10 followed by No. 12
Michigan, No. 13 Brigham Young,
No. 14 Mississippi State, No. 15
Miami (Fla.), No. 16 Florida
State, No. 17 Washington, No. 18
Purdue, No. 19 Nebraska, an up
set victim at the hands of Iowa,
and No. 20 Wisconsin.
