The Big Ten has gone crazy'
this year.
Look at inconsistent Wisconsin,'
for instance, who toppled second-
ranked Indiana, but lost to lowly
Northwestern by three touch-
downs, and then to Michigan by
four.
And then there's the Iowa,

less Illinois Saturday, it could be
an unusual match.
For example, set Illinois - as it
played in the first half against
Purdue - loose against Michigan
- playing as they did in the sec-
ond half of last Saturday's 35-6
victory over Wisconsin.

By BETSY MAHON
According to the weatherman
autumn will be around until De-
:cember 21. It doesn't even seem
very cold outside. However, judging
from the snow jobs done by the
victorious Big Ten teams, one
might conclude that winter had
arrived a little early.
After receiving a cold reception
from lowly Illinois, the Purdue
Boilermakers came from behind
for a 49-22 victory. Following the
lead of their freshmen, who ear-
lier defeated the Boilermaker
frosh, Illinois grabbed a first
quarter lead. But, Purdue's Mike
Phipps spearheaded a three touch-
down binge in the second quarter
and repeated their hat trick in
the final period to put the game
out of reach.
PHIPPS, THE NATION'S of-
fensive leader, broke Bob Griese's
career and season touchdown
passing records, boosting his marks
to 31 and 17 respectively by hit-
ting Ashley Bell with two scoring
passes in the second quarter.
Phipps added two touchdowns
himself on dives of two and three
yards.
Ohio State continued its drive
for the Super Bowl, and their
twentieth consecutive victory by
snowing Northwestern, 35-6.
Northwestern barely had breath-
? ing room as the Buckeyes amassed
a 35 point lead before allowing
the3Wildcats to put their s o 1lo
tally on the board.

five times with State picking up
three of the bobbles while quarter-
back Harry Gonso threw t h r e e
interceptions. However, the in-
effective Spartan offense was un-
able to capitalize on these golden
opportunities.
Minnesota, not wanting to be
left out in the cold of a winless
season, surprised Iowa 35-8. Iowa

the first half and each time the

touchdowns and their first win of;
the season.
The topsy-turvyness of the sea-
son thus far means that the only'
legitimate prediction about t h e
outcome of the Big Ten race is
that it's totally unpredictable.
THE ONLY THING that seems,
certain is that Ohio State is go-

ance in the second half.
The Wolverines, on the other
hand, went scoreless in the sec-
ond half and could only rally for
three first downs, while the Bad-
gems made 13 first downs. Wis-
consin finished the game w i t h
five more first downs than Michi-
gan.
And despite their brilliant ef-
fort in the first two quarters, the
Wolverines gained only 42 yards
more than the Badgers.
Another notable comparison is
that Wisconsin completed 17
passes for 184 yards in the last
half while Michigan connected on
only one pass for 13 yards.
In addition, the Wolverines were
penalized 58 yards in the second
half, while Wisconsin was only
set back 16 yards.
None of this has been mention-
'ed to cut down on the glory the

G ridde Pickings
Silencing the wcbn statics proved to be an easy job as the Daily
Libels pulled out their plugs Sunday by a 22-0 margin. The score was
unusually low for a Libel game but as head coach Buster Block said
later, "Piling it on would have shown that we took the game ser-
iously,.which would have been a gross misrepresentation." "Besides,
we only brought eight players and we didn't want to get tired by
running down the field more than necessary.";
When asked why the traveling squad was so small Daily flat back
D. T. Cusumano stated that, "It's a long way down to South Ferry
Field and we didn't want to waste the gas to bring along unneeded
substitutes.
"We knew that the statics couldn't score because even though
they have the largest mouths in captivity they still can't catch a
football with their teeth."
It was immediately apparent to the statics that the few Libel
players present were in top physical shape. According to Foxy For-I
rester, Daily defensive coordinator, "We held a special training ses-j
sion Saturday nikht and by 6 a.m. Sunday morning none of us
could stand up."
Quarterback Jelly Bean Neubacher, who was in tip-top condi-
tion after a vigorous workout with bridge and beer, kept bidding no-
trumps in the huddle instead of calling signals, but was satisfied with
his performance. He did note, however, that Daily bridge fiend Krock-
ed Kirk, bad-breathed Libel lonesome end, kept pre-empting.
Baby face Barbas seared static sockets with his blinding speed.
It almost seemed as if he was 10 yards downfield before the ball
was snapped, but he was so quick that the refs didn't even see him.'
Buster and Bruiser, the blocking back Block brothers, bruised,
belligerant wcbn blitzers with blatant bashes, and Mort Nauseous
Noveck, intimidated the statics quasi-quarterback with a fierce
charge.
Last week's gridde pickings winner was Neal Dodell of 520 Pack-
ard, who coincidentally happens to room with Libel lonesome end Lee
Kirk. Conflict of interest has been charged, but as of now is unsub-
stantiated.
Another Cottage Inn Pizza, suitable for framing, will go to this
week's winner, with Coach Bo Schembechler's picks listed below.

He explained, 'Since the State repeat performance of the prev-
game I've tried to prevent t h e ious week by earning two touch-'
