If you look at the attached pdf file, it is a schematic, where the IC pins are not all connected explicitly with wires. However, the pins are still shown to make connections to the connectors. How can I achieve the same look and feel with Eagle Cad?

Draw two nets. Then give them the same name.
Is that what you are after?

That helped me 50%. You helped me connect the signals, that's great. However, can I get the Text labels to correlate? Without text, it will be impossible to read the schematic without analysis in software. If you look at the PDF I attached in the original post, you see that the name of the chip pin is reflected over the net coming from the connector. I would like the name of the pin to appear in this way when I connect the signals.
It would be great to have this happen automatically instead of having to manually use the Text command for every signal on a 128-pin chip
Ok I figured it out. You can use the Label command after the nets are connected, click the net you want the label to float around, and you can adjust its angle etc. is there a faster way to adjust its angle than having to move the mouse to the top of the window??

Sure. While you're positioning the label, right click. That should
rotate CCW 90 degrees per click. If you need an oddball angle, click
right on the label and select properties, then enter the desired angle.
