Vandy Unquestioned Champion, Declares Heisman . * \ V®V Georgia and Auburn Are Ranked Next by Expert cpfWITH is the ranking of 14 Southern football teams of 1912, 1 1 written for The Georgian by lfthn W. Heisman, most famous foot fl expert in the South and coach of X Tech team. Mr. Heisman saw prac ically every Southern team in action ‘X year and makes his ranking from 3 pe rsonal study. . Bv J. W. Heisman. _ T . beginning to seep into the minds , „ few people that there may I .mething in this “mental f|t and "psychological edge” busi n''j \ [ have so often referred to in Ljng the chances of football in particular matches. Infei lS lo the outcome of games based n the scores made by the teams „ previous matches do well enough times, and then again they go ni.ii-lt astray. The latter is often the when the game under considera 'i'm is one in which an extraordinary up e st < liters, either on the part of (,)i. or both contestants. If nothing in particular is at stake i„ given match, the teams will gen . ,11 > 1 ay their usual game, with its o-be-< xpected improvements, Bul if one team gets particularly anx ii.n. to win a certain game, and the min i team happens to regard the game r'.iher lightly, there is almost bound to follow a surprise party—in other words, a grand upsetting of the dope. Old 0. Confidence Plays Big Part. Mental condition may not merely in clude such states of mind as keen ness of desire to win or comparative indifference over the outcome, but over-confidence and under-confidence as veil The last of these is heard lit tle of, but often plays its past in games of football. If a team goes on a field feeling that it is going to be mauled all over the greensward, that very thing is most apt to happen. It is not well to have one’s team too badly scared. But good old reliable O. Confidence is the "halo fellow" to bump into often est in a survey of who’s who in a foot ball season. He gives you the hearty slap on the back, tells you how well you are looking and feeling, shakes your hand vigorously with one hand, while in the other behind him he holds his kerchief, saturated with a narcotic more deadly than chloroform. Yes, he's the boy that puts football teams to sleep, all right. Well, that chap and Mr. Keen-To- Win are some rivals, and it all depends on which team they get hold of how the game is coming out in a majority of cases. Sometimes the one gets hold of both teams, as when Georgia and Tech come together. Then young K. T. W. is the only one to get a pleasant word from both camps—and a battle royal always results. But the old mesmerizer, O. C., got a strangle hold on a couple of the teams for a short spasm each this fall, and what he did to the dope is a story pain ful to dwell upon. k Vandy Team Real Champs. I have had no trouble in ranking 1 anderbilt first. Right after their game with Auburn that would, of course, have been impossible. That game , ended in a tie, and as each had won all , their previous Southern games, there would have been no way but to have declared the race a dead heat, had the reason ended there. Some have asked me if I did not think Vanderbilt the better team. Certainly I do—day in and day out, under usual conditions, eh'., etc. But on the particular day they happened to meet. Vanderbilt did not show herself able to score more points than Auburn: and it’s points that win and lose football games, not pounds weighed, nor even yards rush ed. lake baseball—lt doesn’t matter '■ hether you think Chicago has a bet ter team than New York. The only thing of consequence at the end of the season is which has the highest per ouitage. And they don’t get that per centage by contrasting the total runs ' I' h has made through Hie season, nor li> batting or fielding averages of all th' players on the two teams, but sole lv by referring to he columns which ■■how how many games each won and '■it. quite regardless of by how big a irgin they were won or lost. And so " 1* with every other sport, and the termination of its champion. But, unfortunately f or Auburn, the season didn’t end with their brave bat he against Vanderbilt.

It shows that Vanderbilt won all her kames but one, and that one was a tie; her percentage was 1.000, for tie games don’t count in any sport. The record also shows that Georgia w-on all her games but one, while she tied another. Auburn's record also discloses one tie and one lost game, but as we throw out ties it leaves the slate standing for both Auburn and Georgia all wins but one. By this metlfod of reckoning, Vander bilt is first, while Georgia and Auburn are tied for second place. No one will question Vanderbilt’s right to claim first place. For, say what you will about the mere record, the public generally will take somewhat into account in their own minds the scores of other games, and what things generally a team has achieved through out a season’s play. For instance, how could we fail to forgive Vanderbilt their one off-color day, recalling as we do her crushing defeats of all other Southern teams and her grand battle against the very best team in the whole country? Tn other words, we just must heed to some extent our own opinions as to a team’s inherent strength, and hew we think that strength will com pare with another team’s nine days out of ten, particularly when they do not all play the same teams, and under like conditions, as in a baseball league. This kindly and favorable opinion, I say, will estop most every one from voicing any protest whatever against awarding the palm to the Commodores, no matter what they may think might be shown by mere figures. And so there will be no argument about Vanderbilt. Auburn and Georgia Tied. But now comes the big hullabaloo. Georgians will wonder how I can di vide their second layer of the cake in two and give one part of it to Auburn, when they defeated that Auburn team. Can it be, though, that they have al ready forgotten how badly they were overwhelmed by Vanderbilt, when the latter could not even win by a single point from Auburn? And look at their failure to win from Sewanee! If Geor gia wishes to reckon percentages by the inclusion of half games, she will fare no better than a tie for second with Auburn, for she will have to count a loss of 11-2 games (Vanderbilt and Sewanee) against 11-2 for Auburn (Georgia and Vanderbilt). In the East there are many, many good football teams that do not meet each other, and on this account a real ranking, based absolutely on the per centage of games won and lost, as in a league, is quite impossible. Yet the writers do attempt rankings, and these they base on their personal opinions for lack of better data to guide them. To a lesser degree we have here to resort to the same crude methods, since the teams in the S. I. A. A. do not play the same teams, which makes all the dif ference in the world. And when I look over the work of the two teams for the season as a whole, and think of the caliber of the opposing teams they both faced, I find myself squarely of the opinion that Auburn would have won from Georgia three days out of every four, or oftener. Georgia people know and admit that they caught Auburn off-edge. Still, this is a part of the game, even if not a major part, and their splendid achieve ment Is not to be entirely set aside. Auburn made a sad mistake in taking on Vanderbilt the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and It was equally a doleful undertaking for Vanderbilt. Neither of them will make that mis take again. I have no mental reservations what soever when I declare that, taking into account not only the one game the two teams played against each other and the circumstances and conditions under which it was played, but also their rec ords for the entire season, they are en titled to no better and no worse than an absolute tie for second place. Sewanee Team Comes Fourth, Sewanee’s friends will fail to under stand why they are not as good as< Georgia, since they tied the Athenians. Well. well, of course, the Mountaineers are as good if we consider that one game alone. And it is true they held Vanderbilt to a. closer score than did Georgia. But they didn’t do so well with Chattanooga as did Georgia, nor with Tech, nor with Alabama. In fact, their tie game with the latter totals them a loss of one whole game and two half games on the season, which is worse than the record made by either Auburn or Georgia. And then we must not forget that they won from Tech only on the veriest fluke of the entire season. No, 1 am firmly of opinion that both Georgia and Auburn were potentially decidedly stronger than Sewanee, and even doubt whether the Tigers could have, won again from the A’ellow*Jack ets bad the? met in a second game. Sewanee and Auburn i(jd not meet, but against the teams they played In com- THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY. DECEMBER 3. 1912. mon Auburn’s showing was, on the whole, considerably the better of the two. Where Does Tech Rank? Does Tech rank above the remainder of the field? It’s very hard, indeed, to say with confidence whether she is en titled to fifth place. But I believe she is. As a matter of fact the proper deter mination of places for all the rest is a harder problem than wfmt has gone be fore. This is so largely for the reason that the remaining teams have not played such schedules as would enable anybody to accurately determine much of anything. Thus Teqh has not played Tulane, Tennessee, L. S. U. or either of the Mississippis. Auburn has not played Tulane, Ten nessee, Mississippi. Alabama nor Se wanee. Georgia has not played Tulane, the Mississippis, Tennessee, Mercer nor L. S. U. And Sewanee has not played Tulane, the Mississippis, Mercer nor Auburn. And so it goes. Now, with these incomplete schedules it is quite impossible to get a good line on the relative merits of all the teams in the S. 1. A. A. About ail we have to go by is the fact that Alabama, whom we know over in this section, defeated Mississippi by a close score, and was defeated by Mississippi A. & M. by a close score. The two Mississippis did not play against each other either this year, so this leaves us high and dry again. But Alabama defeated Tulane, and Tulane defeated Mississippi A & M. while the latter defeated Alabama all three being close scores. As Ala bama also defeated the University of Mississippi, which latter defeated L. S. L., it looks like plain sailing to rank Alabama at least on a par with the other colleges over in that section. And yet we all recall what Tech did to Alabama—much the worst score that has been put up against the Tusca ioosans. And no one any longer thinks that it was coming to an early height that en able Tech to do this, for she played equally well in all her subsequent games; and even on the last day of the season defeated the strong Clemson team by as great a margin as either Auburn or Georgia had been able io turn the trick. The luck of things has been against Tech in nearly all her games this year, but those who saw them play most of their matches will, I am sure, encounter no difficulty in assigning her to no worse position than fifth. Alabama Is Given Sixth. From the foregoing it will not be difficult to observe that Alabama has a nose ahead of the remainder of the field. She would have the right. I think, to claim this from her games with the Mississippis and Tulane alone—remem bering how these latter came out in their games with each other. But when we recall Alabama's tie game with Sewanee and her splendid show ing against Georgia there remains no doubt whatever. Tech was really the only team that was able tb put it over the Tuscaloosans in large gobs. They had a rather close shave of it on Thanksgiving day. but with the hard fights they had been having all 'season they were about all In. and are to be congratulated on having won the game at all. Other Teams Hard to Place. With but few exceptions the remain ing teams did not play each other, and all the guess one can make between them must arise from the showing they made against superior teams. Thus as between the Mississippis, L. S. U., Mer cer, Tulane, Tennessee and Florida, Clemson met none of them but Mercer. The latter played none but Clemson and Tennessee, which last played none but Mercer anil Alabama. The two Mississippis did not meet each other at all. Tulane played only Mississippi A. & M., and so on. Os the lot it looks to me as though Mississippi A. & M. had a shade the better of the records as a whole, but as she was beaten by Tulane we will have to hold her back with the rest of the clan. On the other hand, I can not see my way clear to give Tulane a quit claim deed to seventh place ahead of the rest, because she was defeated by L. S. U. decisively on Thanksgiving day. But L. S. U. had already been beaten by narrow margins by both the Mississippis. So there remains noth ing to do but call it a draw between the four for seventh place. Florida and Clemson Tied. Tennessee played pretty good ball and won from quite a number of teams, but. after all, nobody of consequence. She lost rather badly to Sewanee and unexpectedly to Mercer; so Mercer outranks her.

She was defeated by’ Clemson, which makes her lose out here; and when you compare her record with that of Florida we find that she did not make as good a show ing against either Auburn or Tech as did the Floridans, while she was also unable to get better than a tie with the latter when they met; so that puts Florida ahead of her also; especially as Florida won from the strong South Carolina team. But when we come to deciding Ibe tween Florida and Clemson for eleventh place we are up against something else again. Auburn and Tech both made slightly better scores against Clemson than they did against Florida, while Florida defeated South Carolina, which was more than Clemson could do, for they were han’dily defeated by’ the South Carolina team. To offset this, Clemson can point out thta she defeat ed Mercer, while the best Florida could do was tie up their game with Mercer. However, Clemson can point with pride to her great victories over Citadel and Howard and her fine game against Georgia, I will split eleventh place between Florida and Clemson. This lets Mer cer in for thirteenth place, with Ten nessee fourteenth, Citadel fifteenth, Howard sixteenth, Mississippi college seventeenth and College of charleston eighteenth.

IF Clarence English is able to halt Frank Whitney in ten rounds to night as lie has agreed to do. it will be as big a reversal of form as If Charley Brickley would miss a goal Ina pinch or if Theodore Roosevelt’s name was crowded off the first page for six months hand running. Personally I would not be a bit sur prised to see Whitney earn a decision without any handicap provision. The matter of poundage, which caused the Dixie club matchmaker to provide the handicap shouldn’t count many whoops in a short ten-round engagement, and there is no question about the fact that at boxing the Fighting Carpenter has it on the veteran welterweight, unless he has gone back horribly since his last Atlanta bout, or unless English shows far more stuff than he did when he met .Motto here a couple of weeks ago.

ParkSyChambers -Hardwick Peachtree Atlanta, Georgia to make the weight. Eight pounds is not a whole lot of difference when it is considered that in height the boxers are just about the same size and neither has anything on the other in reach. The contract reads that if Whitney is on his feet at the end of the tenth round he wins the bout, regardless of points. And the job looks a trifle too much for the Omaha scrapper. In the first place, English is distinct ly a one-handed fighter. His right is dangerous, but his left has never made anybody go to sleep. Now, Whitney is a corking good defensive man and it is hard to see how he will let his opponent slip over a sleep punch when he knows that he has got but one hand to watch. There is hardly a remote possibility that the Carpenter can stop English, Whitney's only fault In his Atlanta bouts seemed to be that despite the fact that he could land often, the punches never seemed to carry enough to trou ble the man in front of him. And in English he meets a tough, hardened old scrapper, who knows how to protect himself. English Well Laid In, Unless English is putting up a' big TIGERS IN SEARCH OF GOOD MOUND ARTISTS DETROIT.
