My mighty Hoosiers dominate! Take that, Sparty! Bring on the Boilers, losers to Fordham!

And a crowd of 15,000 to boot! Consistent with current attendance. I’ve been to games at Memorial Stadium where they introduced the fans to the players to save time...

At 2-2-2, the Trojans, defending national champs, aren’t doing so hot this year. Hope we can bounce back next week, when we head to the Chinook State to play the Huskies.

Fight on!

One has to wonder how much time the football players spent on the road. This was in the days before any freeways, the highways went through the middle of every town, and I suspect it might have been before the days of air travel.

Missouri at West Point seems to be quite a few miles.
