If Commodores Expect Anything Easy Here Saturday, Georgia May Trim Them
OVERCONFIDENCE MAY COST VANDV THE CAME
Bv Percy H. Whiting.
I T has not often fallen to the lot
of Atlanta football fans to
have a decisive football game
• played within the confines of a lo
cal park. The Tech team has not
been in the championship tunning
f.n years and it has been years
sjiv’e Georgia has played any team
bitt Tech in Atlanta.
This year, however. Georgia is
s . d to meet Vanderbilt on Sat
urio.v at Ponce DeLeon park and
the game should be one of the five
or six decisive struggles of the sea
son in Dixie.
Georgia most certainly has a
, •'ance to beat Vanderbilt. And
the team that beats Vanderbilt
has the championship cinched.
rlf course. Auburn, always a
contender, and Sewanee, appar
ent \ strong this year, must be
counted on. But Georgia should

eithe' And at the same time
neither appears to have much

It’s All Up to Georgia.
Apparently if the Commodores
are to be trimmed by a S. I. A. A.
team this year it will have to be
Georgia, and the trimming will
have to be done Saturday after
noon at Ponce DeLeon ball park.
There are a lot of folks in the
South who have the notion that
Vanderbilt is never to be beaten—
that the Commodores have taken
the lead, always to hold it.
Os course, this is ridiculous. No
team ever grew so strong that it
was not trimmed in due time.
Michigan. Yale, Virginia are strik
ing examples.
This may be Vanderbilt's year to
go down.
Certainly the Tennesseeans have
nothing on the Georgians save ex
perience. This is a tremendous
advantage, truly. But it is not an
overwhelming one. No team ever
won on experience alone
Any way you figure it—and there
are plenty of ways—it will be a
good game and a decisive game. It
xviil mean more to the Georgia men
if thex can win than any game
played in years and years, for it
means that the Red and Black is
hack in the lead again and strong
enough to meet the strongest—and
conquer.
Don’t Take It Seriously.
The press dispatches sent out
from Nashville, to the effect that
Vanderbilt has a look-in on the
championship of the country at
football, are not to be taken too

Vanderbilt players or coaches.

efforts, to tie Yale and Annapolis.

M < higan. even in the years of the
Wolverine's weakness.
If the Commodores get swelled
up with any of that sort of stuff,
they are likely to fall easy prey to
' « first team that gives- them a
fight. That has ever been a Cotn
modoro weakness. Vanderbilt men
remember with a pang of disgust
'“ silly parade before a Sewanee

ago and the terrible threats of what
the Commodores were going to do
i" Sewanee—and with a mingled
feeling of regret at the showing
and of pleasure at the .just retn
rtion. they recall what really hap
pencied.
If the Commodores come to At
nta with any hunch that they are
coming national champions and
t at they are going to have a soft
time with Georgia, they are likely
to be trimmed, and trimmed good

“The excitement here over baseball

John "But 1 find a difference between
the wav people go in for sports here

Some one was telling me that Ty Cobb
is to get $15,000 next season That is
extraordinary. Baseball playing is more
remunerative than many of the learned
professions.
“Then I think you people over here
do not go in so much for the love of a

love sports more for their own sake
than for the idea of beating somebody

Georgia Will Give Vanderbilt a Hard Game, Predicts Tech Coach
HEISMAN ADMITS TECH SHOWINfi SI.HI’RISED HIM
By J. W. Heisman.
(Coach of the Tech Football Team)
ON Saturday Sewanee decided
to go after a century score,
just to see what one would
look like. No doubt they did a
lot of running, but as little or noth
ing is knoxvn of the caliber of Flor
ence college, a guess as to the
merits of the Tigers’ performance
isn’t worth the reader's time.
The Commodores rolled up an
other healthy score, and against
Rose Polytechnic the 50 points they
made mean more than did their
hundred odd against the other two
teams previously played. While I
look for them to defeat Georgia
handily next Saturday, I am en
tirely sure that it xvill not be an
other track meet for the Tennes
seeans. The Red and Black will
have power, and will go some
through the line, but that Vander
bilt backfield w ill get around Geor
gia's ends, 1 imagine. Both teams
are liable to do considerable for
ward passing.
Auburn Strikes Snag.
Auburn struck something of a
snag in Florida, but this was no
surprise to me, for Florida played
excellent ball last fall and has re
turned almost the entire team this
year. I am advised by more than
one correspondent from the Land
of Flowers that the football team
down the e is planning to make
their native heath a Land of
Thorns for ail invaders and that
they are well capable of doing it.
My information is that they claim
a weight if over 170, and with the
speed and ability of "Dummy”
Taylor at halt and Captain Buie at
quarter. 1 have no doubt that visit
ing teams there this fall will find
something else besides the weather
a "warn proposition.” 1 am ad
vised that they hope to catch Tech
napping on October 26 That they
can not do, as xve are well "on to"
them, and if they beat Tech it xvill
be because they have the better
team and the Tech" team will not
be able to help itself.
The score turned in by Georgia
against Citadel was entirely cred
itable. for the latter plays a good,
snappy, nervy game. By the ac
counts it would appear that Cit
adel surprised the Athenians as
much by their splendid forward
pass game as they did the Yellow-
Jackets. It Is certainly a sight
worth witnessing to see the way
Martin and Folger, of the Citadel
team, get those long, speedv passes
’ off
It is clear that Merce'r has re-
money passes
over the counter for

covered from the shock of its over
throw at the hands of Auburn and
is beginning to make better use of
the material. To score almost as
many points against Howard as
did Clemson is a feat for any Bap
tist to smile over; for Clemson,
you know, has "some football team"
this Indian summeT. Mercer's game
with Tech next Saturday in Ma
con is going to be a pippin. Mer
cer will have the edge on weight
by a good ten pounds or more.
The Clemson men frankly admit
thex- were surprised by Riverside
on Saturday, and the mere score
alone xvould seem to bear out this
unblushing admission. But if few
of the regulars were in the game
until the second half the whole
thing is largely explained. 1 don't
fancy Clemson is going to try to
run up any big scores until it meets
the Citadel and South Carolina, its
deadly state rivals. No, the Tiger
having tested his strength against
Howard, is now going to ''lay low”
for a while.
Tennessee is bearing out my
forecast of a strong team Its score
against Maryville surprised me by
its size, notwithstanding 1 think so
well of them. T look for the Vol
unteers to get xvell back on the
map again this fall, and next fall
we will again see them having a
sax or txvo about things.
The Afabama-Tech Surprise.
And now what shall we say
about the real surprise of last Sat
urday? Alabama had the weight
edge all right, though not by as big
a margin as 1 had expected to see,
and they had the speed edge by big
margin, as I had expected to see,
and they had the speed edge by a
team average. I should say, of not
less than three-fourths of a sec
ond on the hundred. They also
had the age and experience handi
cap in their favor. And yet Tech
won. and by a very decisive score.
Personally. 1 had looked for a de
feat to the unmelodious tune of
about four touchdoxxns at the.
hands of the Tuscaloosans, but the
fire and spirit with which the Jack
ets went into the very first scrim
mage told me in a trice that they
weren't going to beat us that much,
anyway.
At the end of the first half they

had three points garnered, while
Tech had none. And then came
out that "come-back" stuff that
Citadel saw a \< eek ago, and after
that it was merely a question of
z how long the quarters were as to
xvhat the size of Tech’s score xvould
be.
I have told the public before that
they couldnt look for much of a
football team, but they could ex
pect to see some mighty courage
ous fighting spirit this fall from
the Yellow Jackets.
What about their football play
ing Well, I nearly believe they
played bteter than they know how
to play. They put forth almost
superhuman efforts, and that, cou
pled with a peculiar style or sys
tem of play that we have adopted
this year, proved "considerable
some" demoralizing to Alabama.
Team Is Lightest Ever,
M ith Moore, a 140-pound fresh
man, in the game in place of a con
siderably heavier naan, the average
weight of the Tech team is brought
down to 154. When it is recalled
that the next lightest team we have
ever had at Tech has been about
162 (in 1906), the reader Is in a
position to understand just what
kind of a hole Tech is in this fall
for material; or, if the reader
doesn't, any athlete does. And, by
the way, the sporting editors of
Atlanta are cordially invited to
come out and weigh the team for
themselves any time they feel so
inclined.
I have dwelt for a moment on
this point merely because I want
Tech men and Atlantans to appre
ciate that fighting Tech eleven, and
to give them credit for what they
did last Saturday. I freely say that
it was. in my opinion, the greatest
victory, considering the limita
tions, thal Tech ever won, and I
am proud of the team accordingly.
Whether these featherweights
can stand the gaff and keep up this
pace is something that remains to
be seen. To keep them ‘‘on edge"
for a whole season of . games in
w hich they will always be greatly
out weighted is a task I fear be
yond our powers, perhaps beyond
anj- powers.
But as long as they can play
such football as they did last Sat
urday. whether they win or lose,
they will be putting up an article
that xvill be well xvorth any man's
time to inspect of a Saturday aft
ernoon.
