After the Supreme Court ruled that the grcedhoad universities of Georgia and Oklahoma had won their lawsuit, it was supposed to result in an overload of TV games May tie last week w as a bad sample, with the C S Open Tennis on but there weren't any decent games on The mid afternoon ABC game, usually always on. was nowhere to he seen Only the UW Northwestern game" was on pretty boring stuff The various No 1 teams had an interesting week Miami lost to Michigan, but that was understandable One of the pre season experts pic k ill Notre Dame, which got dumped by Purdue The real laughter, however, was the magazine that picked Arizona State to win the national title All the SunDevils did was get blasted by Oklahoma Stale by a count of 45 3 <at home in Tempo, no lessl And yes that is Oklahoma State, not Oklahoma I still can't figure the new rule which gives the ball to the kickoff receiving team at the 30 yard line instead of at the 20. If the kick goes out of the end zone I don't have a problem with the concept, but the explanation is a bit fuzzy They want more kick returns Why not move the kickoff hack to the 35' It seems as if adding another 10 yards for a touchbaek decreases the icentive to run kicks back Who knows' —It seems there is a certain 1 unnamed 1 sports writer for the Gazette Tunes who is walking a little easy around Oregon State fans after the Beavers dropped a close one to Ohio Slate. 22 14 on Saturday The Beavers certainly controlled the first half of the hallgame. and with a few breaks it may have even been closer It's hard to tell how much of the result can he attributed to a poor showing by the Buckeyes, and how much is due to the improvement of the Beavers The key for the Beavers will be to turn in a similar performance this week Historically, the tsiys in Orange will follow a strong performance against a good team with weak performances against poor ones This week's opponent. Arizona, is by no means a "weak" opponent but the Beavers follow the VS ildcats with Wyoming and Idaho At least people are talking about something other than when J im - will be fired For now - The Oregon Ducks got off on the right foot with a win over laing Beach Slate It is dismaying that no radio stations carry the Ducks games in Fastern Oregon There is a 5000 wall station in Ontario, and one in Bend Not quite enough to reach Heppner Last year a Tri Cities station carried the games I always wondered about that Now I know Apparently the Tn-C’ities station wanted to be able to carry L'of O basketball 'Don Monaorc and therefore took the football games Not so this year Beginning this week we ll have the Gazette Times panel of "experts” showing the way for NFL Football We'll try to have a guest expert every week Warning These predicltons are not warrenteed to make money at the bookie window The Crystal <?> Hall This week we begin a new feature in the G-T. in which our panel of illustrious "experts" will mysteriously predict the outcome of the week's NFL games before your very eyes Through an exhaustive screening process, we have chosen our experts for this panel The screening process consisted of in-depth interviews, personal history checks, FBI dossier assinblage and other covert processes As a result, the swamis chosen for this task are the following Mike Oths.
