That’s the time when the main interest is in trying to guess what teams will bowl games January l. Barring possible, but unlikely, up sets this week, the leading Rose and Sugar Bowl candidates are the five major” teams that still are undefeated and untied-Boston College, Tennessee, Texas A. and M, STAN ford and Minnesota. Unbeaten Lafayette got all steamed up last night over an Orange Bowl invitation only to hear it was just a “feeler,” and that Fordham, Penn State, Boston College and other Eastern teams are under consideraton, with Alabama and Mississippi State among the possible Southern entries. Mississippi State is one of the tied but unbeaten teams. The other, Texas Tech, and undefeated-untied | Hardin Simmons also may be in / line for bowl bid. Minnesota Likely in Line. The prospects for a Big Ten Pacific Coast meeting between STAN ford and Minnesota are looking brighter, while Tennessee VS.. Boston College loom as the most likely Sugar Bowl lineup. Minnesota finished its Western Conference sweep by whipping Wis consin, 22–⁠13, after spotting the Badgers the first Is points. The Gophers’ chances of going to Pasadena depend upon favorable action by the conference faculty members at their meeting December CT. While sentiment seems to be swing ing in favor of such a game, that may be too late. Stanford, idle last week, winds up Saturday against its ancient rival, California, and the bowl invitation usually comes right after the final game. Tennessee, victorious over Ken lucky, $50, still has to dispose Of Vanderbilt next Saturday, and Boston College, which walloped one strong Southeastern Conference team, Auburn, 1877, still has to get past Holy Cross.
