week were obviously well thought out,
as the fifth year coach returned his
selection sheet marked up with a few

of the games.

Michigan over Washington noting,
"Battle of two coaching greats (Don
James and Bo Schembechler), but the
game at Michigan."
Frieder took Miami-Fla. over Purdue
reasoning, "Miami won't lose two in a

Undoubtedly, however,
Frieder's juiciest quip was for
the Notre Dame-Michigan
