Scoreboard

P: After a so-so season, the University of Southern California Trojans made everything all right by scoring 21 points in the final quarter to upset favored Notre Dame 42-20. It was the first time U.S.C. had beaten the Irish since 1950, and the largest score they had run up in the 27-game-old rivalry.

P: Texas Christian University's great junior halfback, Jim Swink, took three quarters to get started, then ran all over the massive Mustangs of S.M.U. to lead his team to a 20-13 victory and the Southwest Conference championship. P: Trying hard to hold on to their No. 1 national ranking without giving away secrets to Maryland's Orange Bowl scouts, Oklahoma's undefeated Sooners ran a run-of-the-mill offense against Oklahoma A. & M. and plowed the Aggies under 53-0. P: Georgia Tech's speedy backfield ran rings around outmanned Georgia as the Rambling Wrecks wrecked their traditional rivals 21-3 to earn an invitation to meet Pitt in the Sugar Bowl. P: Unimpressed by the fact that the Vanderbilt Commodores had come to town with their best team in 15 years. Tennessee's Volunteers made Coach Bowden Wyatt's first season in Knoxville a success by turning back the visitors 20-14 and souring their last chance for a Sugar Bowl invitation.
