BY JIMMY (THE GREEK) SNYDER This will be a good weekend for Oklahoma to enhance its high ranking in college football. While the Sooners should have little difficulty with Kansas, Michigan risks its national standing against visiting Texas A M. TUESDAY'S RESULTS Baltimore 6, DETROIT 1. Boston 6-5, Toronto 5-1. New York 2, Cleveland 1.

I My early look at this weekend's NFL games: DETROIT 7 over Philadelphia; Pittsburgh 3 over Cleveland; Atlanta 3 over N.Y. Giants; New England 10 over N.Y. Jets; Minnesota 11 over Green Bay; Dallas 22 over Tampa Bay; Chicago 8 over New Orleans; Baltimore 1 2 over Buffalo; Los Angeles 13 over San Francisco; St. Louis 3 over Washington; Denver 13 over Seattle; Miami 4 over Houston; Cincinnati 6 over San Diego; Oakland 13 over Kansas City (Monday night). CHICAGO 8, MINNESOTA 6: Third place in the American League West belongs to the White Sox, who clinched it behind Richie Zisk's 28th and 29th home runs and five runs batted in.

Rod Carew of Minnesota singled three times in five at-bats to raise his major league-leading batting average to .383 and his total hits to 230, the most since Cincinnati's Pete Rose had that many in 1973. The Twins' Larry Hisle batted in one run to hike his AL-leading total to 116. The winning pitcher was Chris Knapp (12-7). Goff Zahn (12-14) took the loss. nil! i rarsma MICHIGAN STATE; LSU 1 over Florida; Georgia Tech 9 over Air Force; Colorado 19 over Army; Pittsburgh 8 over Boston College; Brown 13 over Princeton; Clemson 3 over Virginia Tech; Columbia 3 over Pensylvania; Texas Tech 3 over North Carolina; Duke 6 over Navy; Penn State 14 over Kentucky; Maryland 6 over North Carolina State; Colgate 14 over 22 While the Wolverines are undefeated, they have been struggling to defeat teams like Duke andJavy by 21-9 and 14-7 scores, respectively.

On the other hand, the Aggies are undefeated in three outings and are coming off an impressive 1 33-17 decision over Texas Tech. With George Woodard, a monster at 6 feet, 277 pounds, recovered from a groin pull, the Aggies have the type of offense that can wear a team down. And don't forget Tony Franklin, the best field goal kicker in college football. Although the Aggies' basic three-four defense Is legendary, it does not figure to outmuscle Michigan, which can be as physical as any squad. The Wolverines' major problem on offense has been Harlan Huckleby's frequent fumbling.

Defensively is where Michigan excels, and that, plus the home field, makes it Michigan by 7. Friday USC 21 over Washington State; Brigham Young 15 over New Mexico. Saturday MICHIGAN 7 over Texas A Notre Dame 13 over 5HE Harvard; Rutgers over Cornell. Purdue 12 over Wake Forest; Tennessee 7 over Oregon State; West Virginia 20 over Virginia; Auburn 1 over Mississippi; Oklahoma State 13 over Florida State; Illinois 12 over Syracuse; Nebraska 23 over Indiana; Oklahoma 21 over Kansas; Mississippi State 13 over Kansas State; Minnesota 3 over Washington; Arizona 5 over Wyoming; Stanford 1 5 over Oregon. MILWAUKEE 7, CALIFORNIA 5 (10 Innings): Don Money's two-run homer with one out in the 1 0th sent the Brewers and Eduardo Rodriguez (5-6) to victory.

With one away, pinch-' hitter Dick Davis singled off loser Dave LaRoche (8-7) and Money followed with his 25th homer of the season. I Kansas City at Oakland, doubleheader, night.
