Crippled CousinS CO( BY HOWARD HELLAMS SPORTS EDITOR "Big Thursday" was a lot of things in Columbia-it was the crowning touch of a gala State Fair Week . . . it was a three-day holiday for students . . . it was prosperity for Columbia merchants and the athletic departments of both schools . . . it was a great weekend for football fans around the nation . . . it was South Caro lina's largest outdoor cocktail party, next to the Carolina Cup in Camden . . . it was a fabulous fashion show for the state's young ladies . . . it was tantamount to the Orange Bowl in Miami, the Army-Navy game in Philadelphia, or the Yankees and the Dodgers in the World Series . . . it was all these things, and more. "Big Thursday" is now dead and buried-in fact, if not in spirit and we have arrived upon the eve of the first Clemson-Carolina game ever played at Clemson. The Gamecocks will get their first look at the Tigers' Memorial Stadium tomorrow at 2 p.m., as they attempt to improve their 1-5 seasonal record and their 21-33-3 mark against the Bengals. NO FAVORITES As in past games, there will be no favorite team in tomorrow's clash, although the official odds give Clemson a 15-point edge. "May the best team win" certainly does not apply here, for many times the tremendous underdog has walked off the field with a substantial victory. The winning team is the team which is "up for the game." The undefeated team stands no better chance than the squad has not won a game all season. It's simply a game in wh' each team must rely on the "fickle finger of Fate." 4 TIGS RATE STRONG NOD As far as betting odds are concerned, however, Cle on must be given the nod. They have a better won-lost count; th have better scores against the same opponents; they're pla ig at Death Valley; and they have only one injured man-a s ond string end. Record-wise, the Tigers have posted a 4-3 ma , with wins over Wake Forest, 28-7, Virginia Tech, 13-7, Virgin' , 1-7, and North Carolina, 24-0. For three weekends in a row, how r Frank Howard was on the verge of his one black hair turning ., as his troops suffered successive defeats at the hands of Ma a s, 19-17 ,k trolina (2loii ky Clemson 21-6, and Vanderbilt, 22-20. Carolina, on the other hand, cannot boast of an,y kind of com parable average. The young Gamerooster squI has won only one game-the Hlomecoming tilt against North Carolina. 22-6. Five times the Birds have bitten the dust, and on two occasions, they re'gistfered "'goose eggs" on the scoreboard. Losing hands were dealt to Coach Giese by Duke, 31-0, Georgia, 38-6. Miami. 21-(, Malaryid. 15-0. and, more recently LSU, 35-6. PROILEMS, PROBLEMS, PIROHLEMS Both teams have had their share of' problems this season. but Carolina's seem to be the ones you can put your finger onl. A poor defense has caused Warren Giese most, of' his post-gam headaches. as the Gamecocks rank last in the conference inl pass d1*(Ifen(se and total defense. The porous passing barrier was expec "d t his season, but the big surprise came when the heralded "White (loud forward wall. one of the largest in the nation, showed signs for a need of improve ment. This situation is being steadily renledied, but carl 'v season slack helped place the Gamecocks in their present location on the rushing defense ladder-sixth place. Clemson represents the other side of the mirror. however, as they are on top of the conference dope sh(eet inl rushing defTense and total defense. The only similarity betweeiI the two te,ams (ole in t pass defense area, where the Tigers are only in sixth position. MORE PIROBLEMS offens 'P roops have been inflicted with malignant litis" - something lifferent from Frank Hloward's 'n e Maryland game, for ins < alloween came two days he Gamecocks, as they fumbled 1 n times, giving away u them.
