If you looked rather closely about the campus this past week, you may have noticed an overly large sign about a certain in dividual's neck, reading 'I am the Soothsayer'. And why not? He had chosen the Gamecocks three times in a row.. .and correctly at that. Meanwhile, the outside agitators were still plotting their evil ideas against the resident risktaker. Even though the poor prognosticator had been right much more often that he erred, the malevolent malcontents were still threatening the fantastic fortune teller. Last week, 43-16-1, .729; for the season, 175-59-3, .748. For the first time this season, the GCSS fell below the .750 mark. But what can you expect with Clemson beating Duke and Tulane dropping North Carolina? To sqy nothing of Pacific upsetting San'lliego State. Maryland comes to the Carolina Stadium this weekend in a grudge match. It was the Terps who ruined USC's season last year with a 21-15 triumph over the Gamecocks. To say the least, there will be some aroused people on the field Saturday night. Carolina will have tailback Billy Ray Rice back for the game, but it is doubtful that Chuck Mimms will see any action. Glenn Morris suffered a hip pointer against Virginia last week, but is slated to start at quarterback. s'' H OCT. 1 1. COC KF E 7:00 2.

And look what happened to them. USC 31, Maryland 13. The big game of the weekend is between Colorado and Oklahoma. Seasoned speculators expect Oklahoma to be down after their three touchdown margin over Texas last week. Colorado is a good football team. Then again, so is Texas. Oklahoma 39, Colorado 20. Two service teams fight it out, as Army takes on Air Force. Army got trounced rather handily last week.. .by 52 points to Penn State. The Nittany Lions needed a late field goal to ease by the Falcons, 16-14. In any event, the Air Force team should roll the Cadets. Air Force 49, Army 14. Alabama will have its first real test of the season, facing Ten nessee. Bear Bryant and Co. are coming off a surprisingly easy win over Vanderbilt. Inconsistent Georgia Tech held the Vols to a 10-6 victory. Past performances don't mean a thing. But Alabama will still win. Alabama 21, Tennessee 13. Florida has not won a game this year. Florida State has not lost. It OMEC s for 41 should be an interesting game. For at least a quarter or so. Florida State :0, Florida 7. Finally, Clemson did something right this year. They caught Duke too high following their victory over Stanford and clawed the Blue Devils by a 3-0 margin. This week, the Tigers face Virginia. That's a big difference from Duke. A very big difference. Clemson 20, Virginia 6. Texas and Arkansas meet in their traditional Southwestern Conference clash. Even though the game is in Fayetteville and Texas might be down after their loss to Oklahoma, the Longhorns will prevail. They might prevail ...maybe a tie? Texas 21, Arkansas 17.

Terp bi injury (Continued from Page 6) be pretty darned good to stop them. Ben Schwartzwalder, the Syracuse coach, said Maryland is as good as any team he has faced this year, and that includes three Big Ten clubs." Maryland's offense has im proved, as it is now a two-sided attack. The offense features the powerful running of junior fullback Art Seymour and the artful passing of sophomore quarterback Al Neville. Seymore pounded his way to 945 yards last season and prompted Maryland head coach Roy Lester to install the quick-opening veer offense to the Terrapin's pro set in hopes of springing the effective fullback free more often. Despite missing the entire Syracuse game and most of the Wake Forest game, Seymour has accumulated some 229 yards already this season. 0 1971 ' SA ,1. U. CRO% HON Q..

Seymour's running mate, sophomore Monte Hinkle, ran for a 4.9 yard average in his freshman year and, although he too missed the Syracuse game, is expected to start against the Gamecocks. Complementing this running duo is the effective passing game, especially the combination of Neville to Dan Bungori. Neville and Bungori have played together since high school and last season, as freshmen, combined for seven scoring passes. Through Maryland's first five games, the two have clicked to produce all four of the Terp's scoring aerials. Another sophomore. Bob Lane, mans the other wide reciever slot and Dennis O'Hara an ex quarterback, is the tight end. 1j 111 1 11,1 1 FURDAY S.C. vs ARYLAND VNING OF ECOMING IEN AT hLF-T GO,: .C.C .
