Although a bit oil form last week in
our predictions, wo refuse to give up.
After the way Baylor and L. S, U.
lucked put, anyone could be off form,
so here goes with a flip of the dime:
Arkansas-Texas U. A tough one to
pick after last week's results. A good
pass defense will beat those Razor-
backs, however, and wo believe the
Longhorns have that if nothing else.
Texas A and M.-T. C. U. On the
basis of last week's showing against
Mississippi State, the Aggies should
win. Davy O'Brien may be good, but
we'll take Dick Todd any day.
S. M. U.-Vanderbiit. It should real-
ly be close. We fail to see any dis-
tinction here so just lo be different
we'll pick a tie.
Baylor-Centenary. The Bears are a
real surprise so far. Despite the jinx
Centenary holds over Southwest Con-
furencu teams, we'll,1 string along with
Baylor.
Rice-Tulsa University. With Tulsa
on. the war path after last week's do- i
feat by T. C- U.. they ought to be!
able to make it more than interesting. |
But we figure it will take more than :
a golden hurricane after that hundred I
yard dash last week. We pick the ;
Owls in a breeze.

They may talk about tough sched-
ules, but We fail to find any weak
spots on that of Rice. The University
of Tulsa's Golden Hurricane which
blows into Houston Saturday is a
formidable foe for anyone's schedule.
Of course, comparative scores don't
mean anything (at least, we hope they
don't), but the fact remains that Tulsa
was two touchdowns better than Okla-
homa while Rice was a touchdown
worse than the Sooners. We have
been hearing people say that Tulsa was
