One of the four the second one was a 14-7 defeat at the hands of Veima-AIma, and that is one of several things which has Comet Coach Darvis Cole worried.

Rush Springs has to be fav-j ored, no matter which statistics! are considered. The Redskins have averaged 32.3 points, given up just 2.1 points and have eight shutouts --including a string of six in a row at midseason. Temple is averaging 9,3 points, the defense has allowed 1S.S and the only time the Ti-. gers have scored more than two touchdowns was in a 35-19 victory over Waurika. Rush Springs defeated the same club.

20-0. The Tigers have had their, problems, though, and Coach Danny Cole believes most them "have been solved. Linebacker Malcolm an unblockable ISO-pounder who hits with the authority of a freight train, is healthy and will be ready to go against the Redskins.

Freddie Craig is ready to go at tailback, which means the Outlaws can throw the ball again. Mike Crow has suddenly taken charge at fullback, which means there is a rugged running attack.

And Ronnie Sheeks, an outstanding linebacker who spent most of his time on the sidelines because of injuries sustained as a fullback, has found a new home. He moved into the pulling guard slot in the Outlaws' attack "and is a natural," Newport says. V-A is still, lough, and could be the most under-rated team in the playoffs. Steve Wilson and James Eramons are a consistently dangerous set of halfbacks, and fullback Ted Hargrove blocks well for both of them. The line is a shade light, but quick, and has carried -the Comets tiirough seven straight victories since a third-game 20-20 tie with Walters.

V-A has the best of it against common foes. Comets tied Walters, and the Devils whipped Marlow, 28-13. Both clubs defeated Comanche by 14-point margins, but V-A did it easily. Marlow didn't. None of the scores are figuring in pre-game plans, though.

Cole admits that "some people are concerned about over confidence, since Marlow has a poor record. We know better, though, and are a real tough game." Newport agrees that V-A will have a.tough time, and almost comes out and says he thinks the Outlaws will win it, "We've come so far in the last three weeks. "The big thing is that we've got out players back in the lineup. one is hurt. The only person who might not be at full strength is Ernie Miller (the Outlaws' All-Area wingback) and if he's not ready Gary Mann can do the job for us."
