Big Four football weekend yields two undefeated clubs
After four weekends two of the Big Four stand undefeated in college football with Duke and North Carolina State winning as expected. Duke edged Rice 74 with a strong Duke defense holding the Owls to one TD, while NCSU survived Florida State 74 aided by a late 46-yard pass from Ernie Driscoll to Dick Christy. Carolina’s Jim Tatum sees his Tar Heels surge with three straight upsets including a 20-13 Orange Bowl win over Miami aided by stout defense and penalties. Wake Forest coach Paul Amen laments a rough year, losing 27-0 to Maryland and facing Duke next, amid key sophomores leaving the defense fragile and costly mistakes.
