TOUGH FOES BUILD MORALE OF SQUAD, High Scores Run Up Against Breather Teams Promote Cockiness and Laxity IRISH ARE GOOD EXAMPLE| Midwestern Teams Prove Old- Fashioned Theory of Few Hard Games Is Wrong By BERNIE BIERMAN (Coach, University of Minnesota) Minneapolis, Nov. 8—They used to say in football that no team could stand more than four or five real strenuous foes through any season, no matter how well it was fixed for outstanding material in a large squad. Middlewestern teams—not one, but many—this year are proving that this old-fashioned theory is all wrong. I always have contended that most souads are far better off without any “breathers,” especially after the cam- paign is under way. Developments this year furnish emphatic proof that this scheme is correct. Taking only teams through our sec- tion this year, we discover that those that eliminated breathers from their schedules, and booked one strong opponent after another, have im- proved. more consistently than those that put in a fairly soft game now and then. Notre Dame is a perfect example of the point I'm trying to make. This school always takes on not one but nine to 10 big-time rivals eveary year. Elmer Layden drew Carnegie, Pitts- burgh and Navy before moving into the Ohio State encounter last Satur- day. The Buckeyes on the other hand had had more or less romps against Kentucky, Indiana, North- western, and Drake. Notre Dame beat the Buckeyes and | | I believe part of its success in that thrilling encounter can be attributed to the fact that the Irish had had much stiffer competition under their belts coming up to this terrific tilt. Big Scores Bring Cockiness My contention always has been that running up scores against weak opposition never does a squad any good from a mental standpoint. Any time boys score touchdowns with ease, they don’t take into consider- ation that possibly their rivals weren't so hot. They get chesty and when a real tough foe comes along they are all softened up. I can take my own team as well as several others in the middlewest this year to prove my point. We started against North Dakota State. Our opening foe was stronger than usual. practice brush. Then came Nebraska, Northwestern and Purdue in order. Bach week our opponents became stronger, but as we moved along the Gophers have kept pace with the op- position by, their own improvement. Northwestern is another fine ex- ample. Lynn Waldorf inherited one of the stiffest schedules ever handed @ new coach in our league. Purdue, Ohio and Minnesota knocked off the ‘Wildcats, but they were all formid- able foes. While taking those beat- ings, the Wildcats learned a lot of football. The boys themselves could see their own improvement. By the end of this season, North- western should be one of the best teams in our Conference. The type of opposition it has faced so far will make a pretty fair ball game out of next Saturday's game with Notre Dame, especially if the Irish let down and figure they have a breather. ‘Then there is Michigan. The Wol- verines opened with Michigan State and took a good shellacking, but they learned a lot of football that day and reacted nicely. They knocked off In- diana, then went east to beat Co- Jumbia, and pulled out a surprise vic- tory over Penn. I doubt if Kipke would have been able to accomplish all of these things if he had had some breathers on his early schedule. Hawks, Gophers Head Bill Princeton has had the same experi- ence. They said it was suicidal for the Tigers to play Penn in the open- er, but they won. They have im- proved by leaps and bounds ever since, Saturday they swamped the Navy. If Princeton had gone through Oc- tober with a lot of setups, I doubt whether they would have routed the Middies the way they did. Give me the tough schedule any time. Of course, the program has to be intelligently arranged, but once that is ‘attended to, a team will get @ whole lot more out of such a slate than frequent breathers in between Teal stiff opposition. Speaking of schedules, the month of November is here and the games get tougher to dope every week. Notre Dame pulled one of those story-book finishes against Ohio State to upset the Buckeyes, who fig- ured this was their year for the na- tional championship. Now the Irish have fairly clear sailing for an un- beaten ‘season, although they had better not take Northwestern too In the Conference, Minnesota man- aged to put Purdue out of the cham- while Indiana Bucks’ Defeat Due to Soft. ‘JUMPING JOE’ LIK. | Motion to Change Eligibility jHanna, Bismarck; Joe Rognstad, Val- By special request, “Jumping Joe” Williams, the sophomore sensa- tion at Ohio Statc, was furnished with jersey No. 13, his favorite in prep school days.

According to reports from Iowa City, Ossie Solem, Hawk coach, will start his heaviest set of linemen, against the Gophers in an effort to overcome the power of the Minnesota charge, and then use lighter, faster men, when Biermen’s regulars are worn down. Minnesota, lacking the reserve line power that characterized the 1934 team, will have to depend on the set of forwards that has beaten all op- posing lines into submission this year.
