•Army-Navy: Army approaches full strength for the first time this season. However, the Middies have the better all-round offense and just as much determination...NAVY.

•LSU vs. Tulane: Both teams have come much further than expected this year, but the LSU Tigers have journeyed the furthest...LSU.

•Southern Cal vs. Notre Dame: Trojans started fast, slipped—but badly...Notre Dame started fast, erred—but momentarily. No lapses this time...NOTRE DAME.

•Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma A&M: The Aggies showed surprising life clobbering Kansas State 28-0 Saturday. Party is over, recriminations have set in...OKLAHOMA.

•Alabama vs. Auburn: How times have changed. Used to be Auburn came to this game ripe for slaughter. Tempus fugit...AUBURN.

•Miami vs. Florida: The Hurricanes are the best three-times-beaten team in the history of football. They should drown the struggling Gators...MIAMI.
