There also is a chance that the Southwest Conference team which is shut'out of a Cotton Bowl berth may accept a Gator Bowl bid if the offer is attractive enough. The visiting team in itie New Year's Day classic undoubtedly will come from the Southeastern Conference. Auburn, having its best season since 1935, likely can clinch; a bowl berth by beating Alabama Saturday. A victory would give the Tigers an 8-1-1 record for the season. An impressive triumph, by; Mississippi, now 7-2, or Mississippi State 5-2-2 also probably; would earn an invitation to one of the post-season games.
