LAST YEAR, white football
fanatics were able to put their
Angers on the Minnesota Michi-
fan battle as the “game of the
year”. More than any other sin-
encounter, not discounting
various “bowl” classics, the
itfuggle between the mighty
0ophers and the powerful Wol-
T*rines caught the fancy of Old
^t^in Public.
What will be the game of the
year in Negro football during
1941 f That, no doubt, is the
question the entire sepia grid

nwered. Well, you may have

obaerver, his answer is:
Morris Brown College of At-
famta, Ga. versus Florida Ag-

fan scored 13 in the 3rd quarter
and 6 in the 4th quarter.

October 25, at Tallahassee where
the Men in Orange observe their
annual Homecoming Day pag

One big battle could challenge,
the Morris Brown-Florida strug
gle as game of the year if it were
scheduled—Morgan vs. Johnson
C. Smith—but the titans of the
CIAA do not meet this year. Nor
did they meet last campaign.
Out in the Southwest, Langs
ton and Southern were listed
prematurely, with Southern an
established favorite. But the
Morris Brown Flordia encounter
will bring together two mighty
football juggernauts who iiurse
a real hte and disdain for each
other —and, what is more, their
meeting will be rated every
where as a “toss up”.
Kentucky State has already
been blemished in the Midwes

means that the only possible

third in the. SI AC and second
nationally.
; Morris Brown and Floride
ipay not be stronger this year,
but they certainly are no weaker,
^hat is saying plenty when you
consider the Purple Wolverines
won nine, lost but one, wheras
Florida won six, lost only one,
and tied three. The Floridians
were the one outfit to whip Mor
ris Brown. The margin was 20-
.13.
Last year, Florida had a fresh-
mansophomore outfit. Morris
Brown had a sophomore-junior
combination. This season, as you
would infer, each club has step
ped up a year in collective ex
perience, while both are forti
fied by some of the best-looking
freshmen prospects to come
south in many moons.
