Attack Faces Determined Illini Defense

By GARY WYNER
Associate Sports Editor
Defending conference champion,
Illinois comes to town today in an
effort to permanently derail Mich-
igan's Big Ten title hopes for this
year and hand coach Pete Elliott
his first victory over brother Bump
in the fifth meeting between the
two coaches.
Illinois, slated as one of the f a-
vorites in the conference in most
pre-season polls, has found the go-
ing rough this year, currently,
posting a 4-2 season record, but'
only 2-2 in the league. The Wol-
verines are 5-1 overall and 3-1 in
conference play.
"Michigan is definitely one of
the best teams that I've seen in a
long time, and they seem to be im-.
proving each week," commented
Illinois scout Burt Ingwersen ear-
lier this week.
Great Depth
"Michigan has no apparent
weaknesses. It has great depth
and has been able to shake off key,
injuries which would cripple most
teams," he remarked.
Since Pete Elliott took the reins
at Champaign, he's been unable
to defeat Michigan. The Wolver-'
ines have won 8-7, 38-6, 14-10,
and 14-8 since 1960. Today marks
the 50th meeting between the two
schools with Michigan winning 32.1
The Fighting Illini will be look-'
ing for a bit of revenge during to-
day's nationally televised game as
Michigan was the only team to
beat them last year, that by a 14-
8 score at Champaign. At the time,
Illinois was leading the Big Ten

who calls all the plays, probably
will produce his entire repertoire
today to turn back Penn State.
And he has good reason to go
all out, despite the fact the game
has no bearing on the Big Ten
title race and a Rose Bowl bid.
Non-conference clubs have put
a lot or two on proud Hayes' fab-
ulous record, and he doesn't want
it to occur again now that he has
his unbeaten Buckeyes perched in
second place nationally.
Penn State has beaten the
Bucks three times without a miss.
However, the Nittany Lions have
dropped four of seven this season.
Despite the loss of several players
due to' injuries in last Saturday's
21-19 squeaker over Iowa, Ohio
State seems to have enough to
handle the Pennsylvania invaders.
But Rip Engle, the Penn State
coach, has had 14 winning sea-
sons without a loser at Penn State,
and he must take his last three
to continue that run. So he'll
throw everything in the book at
the Bucks.
