Arkansas May Receive Title In Sw Conference Race
The Southwest Conference will meet in Dallas to decide the conference football championship amid the Razorbacks Tide with Texas Christian and Baylor. Arkansas leads the standings with four wins and one defeat but faces an eligibility dispute over Heinie Schlueter, who played against TCU Baylor and Rice. Rice was the only team to beat Arkansas in conference play, 7 to 6, while non conference losses included LSU and Tulsa. If Arkansas keeps the title it would be the first time the crown leaves Texas.
