Hess Exuberant Over 1967 Ohio Bobcats Football

Ohio University coach Bill Hess shows rare optimism for the 1967 Bobcats as he enters his 20th season. The squad, 62 players strong, began two-a-day practices with a high powered offense led by quarterback Cleve Bryant and a veteran line while defense is keyed to mobility and tenacity. The MAC coaches picked Ohio to finish first in a tight race, but concerns about the quarter system schedule and student support loom as the team opens at Toledo on Sept 16 and Marshall on Sept 23 before a home date with Kent on Sept 30.
