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.

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 fullback fumbled the ball twice in the first half and each time the Gophers converted the miscues into touchdowns.

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 Wolverinesddeserve for their fine performance Saturday.

IN AN ATTEMPT to avoid' what happened before the Michi- gan State defeat, Schembechler has been acting as an amateur psychologist.

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-' team's spirit from getting too high downs and 142 yards. or too low.
