Page 2 College Station, Texas Wednesday, November 8, 1981 TRE BATTAOOT^J Saxton, Rhome Take Over Lead In Rushing, Passing Special To The Battalion The victors did not have a mon opoly on the spoils in the South west Conference football action over the week-end as new leaders emerged in individual rushing and forward passing. James Saxton, Texas* wispy wa ter bug, reclaimed the ball-carry ing leadership with a school-rec ord total of 17.3 yards in the vic tory over SMU. His great per formance was highlighted by an 80-yard run from scfrimmage that broke the ice in the third quarter. Meantime, Sophomore Jerry Rhome was starring in defeat by completing 13 of 2^ pass attempts to give him a leagme-leading total of 39 completions for the season. This barrage moved Rhome ahead of TCU’s Sonny (elibbs, who hit 7 of 11 against Balylor to increase his season totals to 36 of 67. Gibbs continues ps the total of fense leader, however, with a gain of 670 yards in 113 plays. His average of 5.9 yards per play is well back of runner-up Saxton, however. The swift Texas half back is averaging 8.6 on his rush ing. Sharing the spotlight with Sax ton were a pair of Rice backs who distinguished themselves in w r hat was probably Rice’s peak perform ance of the year. Fullback Roland Jackson rushed for 105 yards in 19 carries and moved among the league’s top ten rushers, while Butch Blume scored a school-rec ord total of 30 points and rushed for 75 yards in ten trips. Blume’s point production ex ceeded the 24 scored by Dick Moegle against Cornell in 1954 but it was w r ell back of the SWC mark of 44 set by Jelly Woodman of Texas A&M in 1926. Saxton’s 178 yards erased the Texas record of 158 that had been shared by Byron Townsend and Gib Dawson. The four teams that started the season with top billings—Texas, Arkansas, Rice and Baylor—led the statistics parade with impres sive offensive displays. Rice edged Texas for the day in total offense, 386 to 385, while Baylor and Arkansas were not far back with 349 and 345, respectively. The Owls scoi’ed six touchdowns against Texas Tech, matching their production for the five pre vious games. Meantime, SMU was standing off the Orange jugger naut for two quarters, but then Saxton and his mates exploded for four touchdowns in the last half. In its five previous games SMU had yielded only one second-half touchdown. In all probability, Texas retained its national leadership in total offense (431 yards per game) and rushing (325 per game), both of which are better than the SWC season records of 386.5 and 285.7, held by Texas and TCU, respect ively.

Jerry Rhome of Southern Meth odist took over the passing lead when he connected on 13 throws against Texas. James Saxton of Texas re claimed the ball-carrying lead while retaining a share of the scoring leadership. Babe Craig of Texas A&M, the 1960 conference punting cham pion, took over the lead for the first time this season. Craig has kicked 14 times for an average of 37.6. Garry Thomas of Texas Christian is second with 37.5. ALABAMA NO. 2 Longhorns Ranked Nation’ Number One Football Team By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The “half - a - point - a - minute” Texas Longhorns were named No. 1 in the race for the national col legiate football championship Tuesday, and it looks as if they‘11 be hard to dislodge. The ball-rushing terrors from Austin have three games left, none against leading champion ship contenders. Next Saturday the Longhorns play disappointing Baylor, a team that has lost half its games. Then come Texas Christian (2-3-1) and Texas A&M (3-3-1). Only a form reversal of the most stupendous proportions would permit one the these South west Conference rivals to beat the powerful Texas outfit, leading the nation in offense and averaging' 33-plus points a game. Most of the other contenders for top honors have a more dan- gerous» finishing stretch. The Texans were a solid favor ite for the No. 1 position this week in The Associated Press poll of a panel of experts. 35 1st Place Votes They received 35 first-place votes compared with six for sec ond-place Alabama and seven for third-place Ohio State. They tal lied 463 points—on the basis of INTRAMURALS Sqd. 8 and Sqd. 4 will meet Thursday to decide the Corps championship in freshman foot ball. In semifinal competion yes terday Sqd. 4 beat Sqd. 3 by two penetrations in a 0-0 game. Sqd. 8 shut out Sqd. 5, 8-0. Semifinals in Class A horse shoes will be played today with Sqd. 10 meeting F-3 and A-3 playing Sqd. 12. The six teams to meet in the upperclassman bowling finals Thursday night are: Sqd. 11, C-2, Sqd. 3, Sqd. 8, Sqd. 2 and G.-l. In yesterday’s football, Dale Barber of Sqd. 4 ran the opening kickoff back 60 yards against Sqd. 3 for the only 20-yard-line penetra tion of the game. Frank Riggs, also of Sqd. 4, sparked his team on both offense and defense. He was playing with a broken nose suffered in Monday football. Sqd. 8’s single touchdown in its victory over Sqd. 5 came as quar terback Jim Jones connected with Paul Crank on a 40-yard pass. In quarterfinal horseshoe play yesterday, Sqd. 10 defeated Sqd. 1. F-3 beat Sqd. 8 and A-3 beat Sqd. 6. Sqd. 12, the other team to play in the semifinals, was idle by vir tue of the drawing’ for opponents. Finals in football, horseshoes, ping pong and bowling will be held Thursday afternoon and night. Freshman basketball is now under way and upperclassman football begins Monday. 10 for a first-place vote, 9 for second, etc.—compared with 410 for undefeated Alabama and 365 for once-tied Ohio State. Louisiana State and Minnesota, who knocked over thp top two teams last weekend, moved into contention as No. 4 and No. 5 teams, respectively. Minnesota upset top-ranked Michigan State 13-0, and LSU tripped Mississippi, the No. 2 team, 10-7. Alabama, currently Texas’ strongest rival for top honors, has an easy game this week with Richmond but then must wind up with Georgia Tech and Auburn, both formidable. Ohio State meets Indiana Saturday, plays Oregon next and finishes against tough Michigan. LSU this week plays a, NottS Carolina team fresh from a vie. tory over Tennessee, and Minne. sota jumps from the frying par, into the fire against Iowa. Mielii. gan State is at Purdue, risking second straight setback, whili Mississippi can take it easj against Chattanooga. The top teams with first-plat* votes in parentheses: 1. Texas (35) 411 2.
