Page 168-Friday, September 8, 1978-The Michigan Daily Grimsley predicts: Irish eyes happy, Sooners swoon By WILL GRIMSLEY AP Special Correspondent Notre Dame knows' how Muhammad Ali felt back in 1967-today the champ, tomorrow just another chump, the title taken away before an angry punch can be thrown in defense. Voted No. 1 in national college foot- ball rankings after some wild upheavals in the bowl games, the Fighting Irish woke up a few months later to learn they had been dropped to No. 5 by the pollsters.: On top-Alabama, which felt it should have been there in the first place. So Dandy Dan Devine and his talen- ted South Benders set out this week to redress some grievances-with spirit and punch. Meanwhile, the country gets an early feel of strength in the Pacific 10, spawner of the Rose Bowl, with UCLA- Washington in the headliner hut Stan- ford picked to pull the upset of the week. Last week: 7-3 for .700. This week's version of Russian roulette: Notre Dame 30, Missouri 14: They say the Irish have a fullback named Heavens, who can't wait. Missouri is known as the "Show Me" state. Okay, Dandy Dan, show 'em. UCLA 23, Washington 17: The Huskies are Rose Bowl champions on an impetus kick, but UCLA is deter- mined to halt the pendulum of league supremacy swinging to the north. UCLA has a back named Bashore, which is not a real estate development. He just covers a lot of it. Nebraska 28, California 20: A tentative vote here. The Cornhuskers may not have recovered from their Alabama bruises-physical and pride. Stanford 28, Oklahoma 22:' Sooner coaching problems spill onto the field. Penn State 32, Rutgers 7: Ex-Army Coach Red Blaik, a legend, regards Penn State's Joe Paterno as the classiest of the current college coaching breed. Georgia Tech 20, Duke 17: Tech's Pepper Rodgers has decided to start shooting from the hip with the "I" for- mation.
