OB- Sr. HB Jr. HB Sr. FB Defense earned a bowl trip for the first time since a 27-3 rout of Texas in the 1974 Gator Bowl. However, the Tigers have played In 13 previous bowl games (with a 5-7-1 mark), beginning with the Bacardi Bowl Jan.

1, 1937, In Havana, Cuba, when they tied Villanova 7-7. Boston College, a national power under Frank Leahy in 1939-40 and Denny Myers in 1941-42, Is making Its first bowl trip in 40 years. The Eagles lost to Clemson 19-6 in the 1940 Cotton Bowl, beat Tennessee 19-13 In the 1941 Sugar Bowl and lost to Alabama 37-21 in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 1, 1943. Coach Jack Bicknell, who led the Eagles to an 8-2-1 record, said he didn't bother to ask other coaches how to prepare for a bowl game.

"We're doing things the way we think is right" he said. "We've taken the approach that the morning Is ours for practice and meetings, and we told the players they should be ready to give us the morning. We told them the afternoon is for fun theirs and ours because I'm going, too." Auburn coach Pat Dye has been to several bowls as a player at Georgia, coach at Alabama and head coach at East Carolina. "If we run our program right we should be In a bowl every year," said Dye, in his second season at Auburn. The Tangerine Bowl pits the nation's No.

10 passing team (multiple-formation Boston College, averaging 265.8 yards in the air per game) against the No. 15 rushing team (Auburn, with a 249-yard ground average out of the Wishbone). Boston College quarterback Doug Flutie is sixth nationally in total offense, averaging 274 yards per game. "We don't try to get it (score) quite as quickly as they do," Dye said. "They play a catchup offense all the time.

They're the kind of team you watch on TV and say, 'I'm glad I'm not playing Bowling Green and Fresno State have met only once prior to this afternoon's matchup in the second California Bowl at Fresno. That was a 1961 benefit called the Mercy Bowl to help families of 16 Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo players killed in a plane crash after a 1960 game at Bowling Green. Fresno State won 364 then and is a 13-point favorite to beat the Falcons again. The Bulldogs are 10-1 and 6-0 in the Pacific Coast Athletic Association, while Bowling Green went 7-4, including 7-2 to win the Mid-American Conference. But Bulldogs coach Jim Sweeney recalls how Toledo of the MAC beat favored San Jose State of the PCAA 27-25 with a last-second field goal in the 1981 Cal Bowl.

"Anybody who saw the game last year has to take Bowling Green seriously," Sweeney said. "Bowling Green plays defense with more discipline than anybody we have seen this year. I figure the team that wins will score at least three touchdowns." State teams are selected for Girls' LIT Six of the best state high school teams have been picked by the selection committee and controlling board for the 11th annual Girls' Louisville Invitational Tournament scheduled for Jan. 26-29. "We felt these were the best six teams in the state," said tournament director Bunny Daugherty.

Based on current records, four of the teams are undefeated, and the six have a combined record of 45-2. Belfry, Shelby County, Warren Central, Marlon County, Oldham County and Allen Counry-Scottsvllle are the state schools chosen for the LIT, based on last season's showing, current records and returning play-' ers. On Jan. 2, the board will meet to pick the 10 Jefferson County teams that will round out the field. Final approval is slated for Jan.

6. Belfry and Oldham County are S-0; Allen County-Scottsville, 7-0; Warren Central, 5-0; Shelby County, 9-1, and Marlon County 6-1. Warren Central and Allen Counry-Scottsvllle are In the Fourth Region; Oldham County and Shelby County in the Eighth; Marion in the Fifth, and Belfry in the 15th. Some of the top players In the state will also be featured: Clemette Haskins, Warren Central; Laura Ogles, Allen County-Scottsville; Kathy Splnks, Belfry; Franseda Gunn, Marion County; Gwenella Marshal, Shelby County, and Lois Buntya, Oldham County.

Associated Press PRO FOOTBALL to Denver In which the Rams blew a 21-0 lead, there have been reports of a shakeup In the club's front office following the season. Coach Ray Malavasl, reponedly on his way out has refused to comment on the reports except to say that he is under contract until Feb. 1, 1984, and that "I was hired to coach football that's what I plan to do." "The Raiders game is very Important to me," said Malavasl. "I think we can beat them and I think the team feels that way, too." Both games will be nationally televised. The Jets-Dolphins (NBC) game starts at 12:30 p.m.

EST on NBC (Channel 3 In Louisville) and the battle of Los Angeles at 4 p.m. EST on CBS (Channel 11). The Dolphins are facing a must-win situation. "This is a game we have to have, especially since we're going against a team we're In direct competition against," said Miami coach Don Shula. "They're hot There's not much more to say than that" Led by quarterback Richard Todd and the league's top rusher, Freeman McNeil, the Jets rank second In the NFL in total offense.

They also rank third In total defense. Among their questionable starters are defensive tackle Marty Lyons, wide receiver Lam Jones and all-purpose runner Bruce Harper. Todd has completed 59 percent of his passes for 1,442 yards and 11 touchdowns and McNeil has rushed for 532 yards on 100 carries. With quarterback David Woodley and running back Tony Nathan struggling, Andra Franklin has picked up the slack for Miami. He has carried for 518 yards, second only to McNeil in the NFL.

Associated Press The New York Jets and the Los Angeles Raiders, among the three teams tied for first place in the American Conference, can clinch National Football League playoff berths today. The Jets, winners of five straight games after an opening loss to Miami, visit the Dolphins, 4-2 and losers In two of their last three games. The Raiders (5-1) face the Los Angeles Rams (1-5), who will be making their first appearance in their old home, the Los Angeles Coliseum, since leaving for Anaheim after the 1979 season. The home game will be only the third for the Raiders at the Coliseum, where they moved this year from Oakland, which is located some 400 miles away. "I'm kind of curious as to how the crowd Is going to react," said Raiders coach Tom Flores.

"Unless you're down there in the community, it's hard to get a feel for the crowd. But once the game starts, I'm not going to worry about it "I would Imagine that there will be a lot of people who will be going just because of the nature of the event the Rams coming back to their former home and the Raiders flying in to their new home." Raiders quarterback Jim Plunkett downplayed the rivalry aspect of the game. Yet he also pointed to the significance of the crosstown rivals meeting for the first time since both moved. "The press is probably making it more of a rivalry than it Is," he said. "We're out to get to the playoffs and this is just another team along the way, one that we will have to beat to get there," saitf Plunkett "But I'm sure there will be some excitement and we would like to win the city championship, to put it one way." The Raiders are eight-point favorites.

The Raiders are seeking to remain unbeaten at their new home, where they have won twice. Of the Rams, Flores said, "They certainly have some weapons. (Quarterback) Vince Ferragamo has a strong arm. And they have the ability to strike from anywhere on the field. Their receivers are excellent and (running back) Wendell Tyler has matured." Following last Sunday's 27-24 loss summary At Tokyo P.
