Only Ten Teams Stay Undefeated

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

There are just ten of us left now.

Only ten major college football teams in the country are unbeaten and untied after six or seven weeks of eliminations.

Harvard, at 6-0, is running in some pretty fast company. There are Bear Bryant's Alabama boys (6-0), the number-one Fighting Irish of Notre Dame (6-0), Big Ten leader Michigan State (7-0), the huge Nebraska Corn-Huskers (7-0), and southern standouts Florida (7-0), and Georgia Tech (7-0).

But not all the grid squads with unblemished records are big shots. Williams sprouts a 6-0 record. Waynesburg (7-0) mauled good old Slippery Rock in its first game. And Wilkes (7-0) leads the Middle Atlantic Conference, whomping such powers as Lycoming and Wagner.

This is the first year a Crimson team has gone through its first six games undefeated since 1931. That year the Harvard squad made it through its first eight battles unscathed until blowing its final decision to Yale.

Couldn't happen this year.
