The Fraternity's football board found it extremely difficult to select a first team this year because of the many stars playing throughout the land and because of the slender margin of one's superiority over an other. For instance. it was hard to keep Tracy Maero of Utah State off the honor eleven. A fine blocking back and a bearcat on defense, Maero was good enough to make most any team. It was largely his fine defensive pla y ins:~ tha t enabled Utah State to whip Colorado state. " On fourth down Deason of Colorado grabbed the ball on a wide reverse but with the home crowds screaming for a score, Maero smacked him out of bounds two strides from the goal, " says the D enver Post. "Colorado fought on for a score but twice more M aero stopped them. He grabbed a Colorado fourth down pass on his own 20 to break up one threat and a second AHgie aerial on his 30 to end a last effort." .
