Aggie Coach Sees Edge In Kansas State Rivalry
Manhattan Kan Oct 14 AP rating an edge over Kansas in the Jayhawker Aggie football clash next Saturday on uncertain basis of past performances against different opponents Coach Bo McMillin of Kansas State declines the honor of an edge but says if Kansas still leads after the game they will be glad. The Aggies defeated Pittsboro Teachers 28 to 7 then 20 to 7 despite Wildcat fumbles while Kansas crushed James Millikin 30 to 0 and beat Missouri with power but faced questions about Big Six foes this season. The outcome may hinge on line play and surprises from McMillin and Hargiss as Kansas backs and Aggie blockers clash.
