Several years' experience | SUFFRIDGE CALLS ‘BAMA SOUTHE | By BOB SUFFRIDGE Tennessce's All-America Guard Naturally, I'd like to say Ten- |passee was going to romp right off with that Southeastern Conference football championship again this fall But that would not only stretching my belief a little, it would also be a dirty trieck on Coach John Barnhill and the boys When graduation takes nine out-| ! standing lettermen, the armed | forces take two more, and the | Army calls the head coach away, the outlook just isn't good. Alabama looks like the team ‘o {me. If a guy must put his finger on any one team and say “that’ it,” Alabama’s as good a bet as any And he don't forget Mississippi. They were tough last year and they'll be tougher in 1941. Then | there are Georgia, Kentucky and | ;Louisiann State, the potential sur- |prise teams. Tulane, unhappv |about 1940; may snap right back |into the picture in unexpected | fashion, too. From what Ivie heard this sum- mer—and from what I learned I first hand playing against many |of these teams last fall—heres | what the situation looks like. TENNESSEE: I didn't say the | Vols wouldn't be tough, did I? Ray | Graves should fill in at Acker- man’'s old center post; Al Husl back at end; Bill Nowling, 2 good sophomore fullback last fali, should be even better, and don't forget scampering Johnny Butler The 1940 frosh will help some, t0o. | ALABAMA: Frank Thomas has Jimmy Nelson, All-South- castern tailback, to build around. And he has some fine building material. The line should be great—if sophomore replacements work out in the middle as expected—and if the line is great the team will be great. MISSISSIPPI: Hapes and vious, the backfield blisters, cause plenty of woe in the ference this year behind an bigger, more rugged team Harry Mehre could muster year. GEORGIA: Here's apt to be the| |surprise of the year, with tail- back Frankie Sinkwich running! and Captain Heyward Allen pass-| ing the opposition dizzy. ( KENTUCKY: Another dirk horse outfit, They've got most of the big guns back from last year. TULANE: Coach Red Daw- son has 22 lettermen back and a pretty good squad of a couple dozen sophomores. MISSISSIPPI STATE: Lost plenty from last year's great club. | That powerful line is practically gone and will be tough to replace. AUBURN: Pretty well-fixed de- spite the loss of four first-line men to the Army. GEORGIA TECH: Tackles are a big problem at Tech this year. LOUISIANA STATE: I under- |stand the first team will be good, but reserves are scarce. VANDERBILT: Watch these gentlemen. They needed reserves in 1940, they'll have ’em in 1941 and Coach Sanders says ‘“we'll have the best pass-catching team in history.” (Bob Suffridge continues football this year with the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Professional League.) ——————— Subscribe for The Empire.
