THE BATTALION
’Horns Down Aggies,
Take SWC Pennant
By LARRY SMITH
Battalion Sports Editor
For the fifth straight year the
powerful Texas Longhorns downed
a fighting Aggie football team
and with the defeat A&M com
pleted their fourth losing season
in a row.
Not only did the Aggies lose
the game, 2,')-0, but they lost the
services of Head Coach Jim Myers.
Texas, the No. 1 team in the
nation before their loss to TCU
the week before, proved too much
for the scrappy Cadets especially
in the second half. The ’Horns
ran two plays at the beginning of
the third period and scored two
touchdowns. At the half, the Ags
were only trailing 6-0 with all
Texas’ points being on field goals
from the toe of Eldon Moritz.
Goal Line Stand
In the second quarter, the Ag
gies made a tremendous goal line
stand and there were strains of
another defeat in the air, but like
the champions that they are, the
Steers came back and won the
Southwest Conference title plus
a trip to the Cotton Bowl.
It was the All-America Jimmy
Saxton who broke the backs of
the gallant Ags, but this time his
role was passer instead of runner.
He threw 46 yards to Jack Collins
the first time UT got the ball in
the third quarter and the results
were ■ six points. Saxton’s role
was an unfamiliar one as it was
his first pass of the season.
Pass interceptions and Pat Cul
pepper were the key to Texas’
victory. Culpepper stole the first
Ag aerial to go astray and it set
up the Longhorns’ first field goal.
Then in the fatal third quarter,
it was an interception by Jerry
Cook that set up Texas’ third
score. Culpepper, a “wild card”
substitute, was a constant pain to
A&M as he made numerous crucial
tackles from his linebacking posi
tion.
Last Collegiate Game
In their last collegiate game of
their careers, the Aggie seniors
played to the ultimate but again
Texas Frosli Trim
Aggie Fish, 8-0
Shorthorn Halfback Ernie Koy
Jr. smashed four yards for a first-
quarter touchdown to lead his
teammates to an 8-0 rain-soaked
victory over the Fish in Austin
last Wednesday.
The win, sixth straight for the
Texas Shorthorns over A&M,
gave them a 4-1 record. Their
only loss came at the hands of the
SMU Colts, 16-15. The Fish fin
ished the season with a 2-3 rec-
oz’d, losing two and then winning
two before the finale with the
Texas Frosh.
Texas scored the first time it
got the ball, driving 60 yards in

four plays. Wingback Wayne
Bates broke loose on a double
reverse for 44 yards on the third
play of the game. On the next
play Koy ripped into the end zone
for the game’s only score.
A third-quarter penalty erased
what could have been a 42-yard
touchdown run by Koy. The
Shorthorns twice drove to the Fish
five-yard line and once to the 14,
but could capitalize on none of the
penetrations.
The Fish could never get mov
ing. They never moved inside the
Texas 20 and came no closer than
the Texas 39 in the second half.
Ken MeLean paced the ineffective
Fish with 23 yards on eight car
ries. The Fish managed only 103
yards rushing.

it was the TU jinx plus the tre
mendous power put forth by the
champions that prevailed.
The Aggies only threatened
twice—once being a field goal at
tempt by Mike Clark in the second
period and the other being a drive
to the Texas seven-yard line in
the third period which ended in
a fumble.
The bright spots for the Aggies
were Babe Craig, who got off his
longest punt of the year (60
yards), and the starring defensive
play of Lee Roy Caffey, Keith
Huggins, Wayne Freiling and
Wayland Simmons.
Thus ends the 1961 football sea
son for the Aggies who finished
with a 4-5-1 and fourth position
in the SWC.
Again the popular Agg-ie cry of
“wait ’til next year” was heard
after the TU game and that’s what
we’ll do.
