It’s Another Gloomy Saturday
As Owls Out-Pass Ags, 21-7

Tuesday, November 21, 19C1
BATTALION
Collefe Station, Texas

By LARKY SMITH
Battalion Sports Editor
It was another gloomy Saturday
afternoon in the series of ’61 foot
ball for the Aggies as they fell
to the passing of Randall Kerbow
and Billy Cox and the Rice Owls,
21-7.
This marked the fourth defeat
for the Aggies this season with
four wins and one tie. They hold
down the fourth spot in the South
west Conference with a 3-2 record.
The Aggies seemed like they
simply were not ready for the
Owls and A&M just couldn’t adjust
to Rice’s passing attack until it
was too late. The Owls attempted
25 passes in the course of the
afternoon and completed 11 of
them.
Spectacular Punting
Other than the spectacular punt
ing of Babe Craig, who kicked
five times for an average of 42.6
and the outstanding defensive play
of Wayne Freiling, Lee Roy Caf-
fey, Jerry Pizzitola, and Russell
Hill, the Aggies were just another
team playing out their season
schedule. Even though the Ag
gies out-gained the Owls on the
ground, 153-98, it was the aerial
game that spelled defeat. Rice
gained 135 yards to 24 yards for
the Ags in the air.
For awhile, the contest was just
a game of mistakes. The Aggies
lost three of four fumbles while
Rice lost three of three and had
two passes intercepted.
Rice Scores
With Rice’s Cox at the quarter
back spot, the Owls jumped off
to a 7-0 lead early in the second
period as they went 71 yards in
13 plays for the touchdown. The
scoring play was a 13-yard toss
froln Cox to Gary Poage. Butch
Blume added the extra point from
placement.
The next time Rice got the ball,
they moved 51 yards in four p‘ 1 ays
for the score. Kerbow passed 25
yards to Gene Raesz for the touch
down. Blume converted.
In the third quarter, the Cadets
came out a little more fired up.
Freiling rushed Kerbow, causing
a fumble, and the Ags took charge
on the Rice 13. From the two,
Ronnie Brice made an exciting,
twisting run around left end for
Pre-Season Favorites IFark
Stat ‘Firsts’ Last Saturday
Special To The Battalion
Rivals that were mentioned in

statistics spotlight Saturday as
TCU shackled the stampeding

Baylor, Arkansas and Rice,

off, marked their week-end vic

Arkansas wa.s the aerial king
for the day with a gain of 163
yards through the air against
SMU and trailed the Bears by only
nine yards in total offense for the
day. Consistently stingy with
yardage, the Razorbacks moved

Longhorns Are Ready
For Aggies—Coach Royal
AUSTIN (TP) — Coach Darrell
Royal said Monday his Texas
Longhorns don’t have their chins
on their chests over Saturday’s
6-0 loss to Texas Christian and
should be in good shape for their
game Thursday against Texas
A&M.
“We shouldn’t need as much
preparation for the A&M game
as for the third or fourth game
of the season,” Royal said. “We
could play today and that would
be a hell of a football game.”
The coach added, however, he’s
“gravely concerned” about the
A&M game Thursday.
“A&M has just as good a line
as we do, maybe a little better.
Our running backs may have a
little edge,” he said. “If there is
anybody that deserves credit for
being competitors and coming
back weekend after weekend it
would have to be the Aggies.
They’ve scrapped in. every game.”
Royal said doctors have given
James Saxton, star Longhorn
back, a clean bill of health after
he was knocked out twice in Sat
urday’s game. He said the team
doctor checked Saxton Saturday
night and told him he was all
right.
From there on out, each team
threatened mildly until 45 seconds
remaining in the game when Rice
scored their last TD. Mike Bowen
blasted one yard for the score.
Wasn’t Hard Earned
This last Rice touchdown was
not hard earned as the Aggies
were trying desperately for the
tying TD. A&M lost the ball on
their own 4-yard line whep the
big Rice linemen smothered John
Erickson as he was trying to pass
on fourth down and needing 24
yards for the first down.
The Ags weren’t ready for the
Owls, but some people say that
they were looking ahead to the
Texas Longhorns.
Although Arkansas gained more
yardage overhead, Rice threw the
most passes for the day (25) and
also completed the most (11) as it
scored two touchdowns against
A&M in the air. Baylor also
scored twice on passes, moving
up even with Texas in scoring
aerials for the full route (10).
Rice also retained its season
leadership in punting 6ut the mar
gin over runner-up Texas Tech is
only a tenth of a yard (37.8 to
37.7) and A&M, which averaged
42.6 for the day, is challenging
with 37.5. The Aggies continued
to be the top ball hawks, running
their interception total to 18 by
picking off two against Rice.
