Cougars Unimpressive in Loss;
Cadets Set Sights for Frogs
By GARY ROLLINS
Battalion Sports Editor
Quite possibly, the most appro
priate thing the Cougars could
have done last Saturday night was
to have stayed home in Houston
and watched the films of their im
pressive victory over Miami Uni
versity.
To quote a famous SWC coach,
“you don’t win games in the news
papers.” The decisive Aggie vic
tory over Houston might be an in
dication that the Cougars aren’t
quite ready for the competition—
having lost two games, both to con
ference teams.
Three senior buddies, John Crow,
Roddy Osborne and Bobby Joe Con
rad teamed up to spell defeat for
the well-spoken Cougars.
The Aggies came out of their
dressing room ready to play foot
ball, but it soon became evident
that they were the only ones who
wished to do so—although the Cou
gars did put up a little bit of a-f
fight at halftime.

Once again it was defense that
won the game for the Cadets, as
the Cougar backs—speediest in the
nation—were caged up just as was
the Houston mascot.
After four weeks of competition,
the Farmers have the second best
defense in the conference—second
only to Texas Christian University.
On the other side of the board,
the Aggies lead all the conference
schools in net gain rushing with
1,047 yards total—for a 262 yard
average rushing per game.
The Cadets also are second in
total net gain, following Rice, with
an average 310 yards per game.
The Houston game marked the
last unofficial stop on the road to
the Cotton Bowl. The Bryant ver
sion of the hopped-up tractor is
now on the rocky, road to Dallas
and the Cotton Bowl, via Fort
Worth, and the Texas Christian
University Horned Frogs.
