When Glenn E. reiterated upset possibilities before Indiana the writers yawn- ed. And then when Bo discussed Minnesota's might the reporters roared. But yesterday, at the weekly press luncheon, when Bo said that Purdue has a good team the assembled sports writers faith- fully and soberly scribbled Bo's priceless thoughts. "You got to play hard and tough every week," said Schem- bechler. "They (Purdue) have really improved." Suddenly, after both Ohio State and Michigan almost got caught sleeping against Indiana and Minnesota respectively, an upset of either Michigan or Ohio State prior to the season's finale seems to be more than just a remote possibility. So everybody listened when Schembechler announced how good the lowly Boilermakers were. "Purdue is good," said Bo about the 2-6 Riveters, "That's going to be a bell-ringer Satur- day." I always have doubts about the sincerity of Schembechlerj when week after week he lauds every opponent, high or low, in the same superlative terms. But Bo would be a fool to describe opponents in any other way. No team on the schedule, no matter how miserably they; have performed, is without some chance of upset. And you can be sure every team will be gunning for Ohio State and Michigan. For the Big Ten also rans, a big upset can make the season. Just look at the way Michigan State built up its conquest of Ohio State last year. Football schedules pictured Levi Jackson's game winning run, while all game tickets showed the goalposts being pulled down after the startling 16-13 win.

The Michigan Wolverines are the defending champions but Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois field tough squads. Wisconsin's Badgers will not be pressed to get "up" for this meet, to be held on their home course, the Odana Hills Golf Course. The Badgers were fa- vored to win the title last year, but the young Wolverines grab- bed it away from them. "MICHIGAN'S going to be the team to beat this year, but I think this is going to be a very balanced meet," said Badger coachDan McClimon, "Illinois, us and Indiana will also be bat- tling for the title." Wisconsin's number one run- ner all year has been Mark Johnson. He finished high in the Big Ten's last year. The Badgers' freshman sensation from Midland, Michigan, Jeff Randolph is one of the top milers in the country in his age group and has contributed a lot to the Wisconsin harrier success this year. Other top runners for the Badgers include Steve Lacey and Jim Fleming. INDIANA is another major contender for the title. Lastj year the Hoosiers were riddled with injuries but are strong this year. They have three top run-' ners in Dean Reinke, Steve Hei- denreich and Rikk Magley. Reinke has run a 3:57 mile. The Illinois harriers return the conference's top individual to this year's meet, defending champion Craig Virgin. Virgin is considered one of the top seven individuals in the country and the junior is highly favored to take his third consecutive Big, Ten individual title, However it is generally con- sidered that after Virgin the Illini do not have the overall team strength to win the meet. Freshman Jim Eicken has been the Illini's number two runner. THE MIDDLE of the pack is' seen to be Ohio State and Michi- gan State. Both have outstand- ing individuals but nott enough team power to grab the title from one of the top four. Ohio State has classy riler Tom Byers and outstanding dis- tance man Robin Smith but little else. MichiganeState returnsuHerb Lindsey, one of the top runners in the country again this year.

Bob' Ufer may have been exaggerating slightly describing Gordon Bell's touchdown run that saved the day against Minnesota. 1 But the 5-9, 178-pound tailback's accomplishments remain exemplary if unnoticed and Ufer's comment seems an apt de- scription of Bell's running style. Nationally the senior has received only nominal recognition for his performance this season, as publicity centers around names like Archie Griffin, Joe Washington, and Ricky Bell. Even at Michigan, Bell almost gets lost among the abun- dance of quality ballcarriers the Wolverines have this year. Fans impressed with the performances of fullback Rob Lytle and wingback Jim Smith, and excited over the potential of freshman Harlan Huckleby have forgotten the second lead- ing rusher in Michigan history. Bell surpassed Ed Shuttlesworth's and Ron Johnson's career marks Saturday and only Billy Taylor with 3072 has run for more Michigan yards. Bell now has galloped for 2488 yards. "I think Bell is as good a back as I've seen anywhere," Schembechler remarked yesterday, "He certainly is the most underpublicized back in the country." Gordon Bell for Heisman? Why not. But Bo also has as much to say about Bell the individual as about Bell, the Big Ten's leading rusher. "Even as exciting as he is, as good as he is, he's one of the nicest kids you'd ever want to meet. "He still listens to Trenton, his father. Trenton is still the boss. "During his freshman year he had an incomplete for one of his courses - not that he's a bad student because he's not. Any- way, after he got home Trenton called me up to ask how he was doing. "I said that he was doing all right - except that he'd gotten an incomplete in one of his courses," Schembechler continued. "Trenton said, 'He'll be back tomorrow to finish it up.' "The next morning Gordon came into my office and said, 'I wish you hadn't told him that'." Bell was named Michigan's offensive champion of the week for his 172 yards against the Gophers.
