After several years of matching two of the nation's best teams against each other in an unofficial East-West championship game, the Rose Bowl matchup was less than spectacular. Stanford (8-1-1) was ranked behind USC by Dickinson, and Columbia (7-1-0) was not ranked at all. The Columbia Lions won the Pasadena game 7-0.
