Dennis, a very tricky ball-handler, and Ed Krinsky, the team's steady captain, will start at the guards tonight at least. They may be upstaged before the ball game is too old, however, by Roger Bulger, a boy with a good soft set-shot, and Ed Condon, whom director Norm Shepard called "the best defensive man on the floor...
...Jordan has announced no formation which will include both men. Chances are that the Crimson will probably use some straight single wing plays, with one man at wingback and the other at tailback. It may also employ some T formation attack, with Lowenstein, a clever ball handler, under center, and Clasby, a better runner than passer, at left half.

Glickfield did not ask his ex-teammates to throw the game with Louisiana State; he just wanted them to hold the winning margin below 21 points, the gamblers' "point spread" on the game. That way, bets on losing Louisiana would still have to be paid off, and someone could...
