Page One Hundred Seien Playing a rugged nine-game schedule under a new coach, with few returning lettermen, is a tough as­ signment lor any football eleven. But the 1950-51 edition of the Redmen had to do just that. And while they were at it they compiled the almost unbelievable average of over J00 yards per game!

In only one game of the season were the Redmen an the short end of the total yardage—twice even doubling their opponents yardage.

A review of the season shows that the win-loss record stands at 1-1-7. At first glance, a very poor record. But when analyzed with a careful look the record is one of the best in the state.

Although the Redmen had to switch their type of offense during the season they still rung up over .1 3 00 yard average for every game, still completed Bacchus, Charles; Bowers, Jim; Brooks, Vernon; 44'. of their passes, hid only eight passes intercepted, Bright, Gary; Bushong, Eldon; Cleveland, Bennie. finished the season with a lofty 37 yard punt average.

On the ground it was a different story. Lacking the depth and experience necessary, the Redmen often found themselves deep in enemy territory only to watch their attack fizzle.

In the opener against Miami the Redmen stuck almost entirely to the ground and wo i 29-6. In the second game of the season the hard-charging Bruins from Southwest Missouri won a nip and tuck contest, 13-0.

Opening their conference plav against South- cistern, the Redmen were unable to score on three tries from the f-yard line and the game ended in a 0-0 tie. Next the Redmen tackled Northwestern

and although they compiled over twice as much yard­ age as the Rangers they lost 22-12.

In a non-conference tussle, six men were helped from the field as Northeastern lost 32-6.

At East Central's homecoming the Redmen lost a heartbreaker 8-0. Then on October 28 over 5000 fans watched as the "crippled twenty" held Southwestern Bulldogs to a 14-6 lead at half—only to lose 46-12.

The conference finale between Central and the Redmen found the "crippled twenty" at their low­ est ebb of the season. After holding the Co-Champs to 14 points in the first half, the Redmen defense wilted in the second half to allow 19 more points. Final in the game was 3 3-6.

6l (Rfwiicuv <& tkL REDMEN FOOTBALL GAMES Page One Hundred Ten The difference between second place and fifth place in the Oklahoma Collegiate Conference bas­ ketball race this year was little indeed. In fact, it was only nine points!

Had the Redmen hit the hoop for only nine more points in four conference games their conference record would have read 10-4 instead of 6-8 and would have resulted in the Redmen winning undisputed po- session of second place.

The over-all record shows that three of their losses were in overtimes and that three others were by one or two points made near the end of the game. A doz­ en or more points in the right places would have made it a top-notch season in terms of wins and losses and would have made the season one of the best.

A breakdown of scoring honors shows that Fk-rry leads in individual scoring in conference games with 134 points. Next in line are Dobbins, Dyer, Bittle, and Whinery with 131, IIS, 92 and 76 points respectively.

In the field-goal department the same players hold the top five rungs in the same order. The number of field-goals registered by the top five scorers are Berry, S6; Dobbins, 51; Dyer, 45, Bittle 38; and Whinery 34.

However a closer breakdown of conference game- averages gives much different results. I e.uler in av­ erage score department is Dyer with a 10.4 average. Following are Dobbins, 10.1; Berry, 9.6; Bittle 8.3; and Whinery, 6.4. Dyer, Clayton; Ethridge, Joe; Gilbert, Joe; Golds-
