THE BATTALION
Pa^e 6 College Station, Texas Tuesday, October 16, 1962
Horns Edge ’Bama,
Are 'Now. On Top
By JOHN CHANDLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Texas Longhorns nudged
Alabama’s Crimson Tide out of the
No. 1 spot in The Associated Pi-ess’
weekly poll of college football
teams Tuesday. Texas became the
third team to hold a shaky lead
in the weekly ratings. Alabama
had replaced Ohio State the week
before.
Coach Dari’ell RoyaTs Long
horns, second in last week’s poll,
won its fourth straight game Sat
urday by edging Oklahoma 9-6,
while Alabama also won its fourth
in a row. Alabama had its trou
bles before downing Houston, 14-3.
A week before, Mississippi had
crushed Houston 40-7.
TEXAS, ALTHOUGH receiving
only 21 first place ballots to 24 for
Alabama, moved into the top spot
on the basis of heavier support in
the second, third and fourth place
balloting. The special panel of
sports writers and broadcasters
gave Texas 458 points, to 437 for
Alabama, the defending national
Champions.
Two teams dropped clear out of
the top ten—Penn State and Pur
due. Penn State, No. 3 last week,
Was beaten by Army, 9-6, while
little Miami of Ohio humbled Pur
due, 10-7. Purdue was No. 9 a
week ago.
Northwestern and Wisconsin
crashed into the ratings, taking
over the No. 8 and No. 10 spots,
respectively. Wisconsin defeated
Notre Dame, 17-8, while North-
westei-n rolled over Minnesota,
34-22.
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, idle
Saturday, advanced from fourth to
third place, while Louisiana State
hopped from sixth to fourth after
beating Miami of Florida, 17-3.
Mississippi, which also had the
week off, held on to fifth place.
Ohio State, knocked from first
place to tenth in last week’s poll
after being upset, 9-7, by UCLA,
came back to pulverize Illinois,
51-15. The Buckeyes advanced to
sixth spot.
Arkansas remained unbeaten
after grabbing a high scoring de
cision over Baylor, 28-21, and
moved up from eighth to seventh
place. Washington, No. 7 a week
ago, had a close call, beating Ore
gon State 14-13. The Huskies went
from seventh place to the No. 9
spot.
Others receiving votes: Georgia
Tech, Michigan State, UCLA 1,
Penn State, Missouri, Oregon,
West Virginia, Maryland, Duke,
Army, Auburn, Nebraska, Miami
Ohio, Kansas.

FROM THE
Sicleiin e6
By Jim Butler
While the occupants of two desks in the southwest corner
of the Battalion office (loosely called the Sports Department),
look for bright spots in A&M’s 42-6 drubbing at tjhe hands of
the Florida Gators, they can take some consolation in the
plight of tb'Vr counterparts on UT’s Daily Texan and Ark
ansas’ The Traveler.
Confidence shaken by narrow victories in last week’s con
tests—Texas 9, Oklahoma 6 and Arkansas 28, Baylor 21—
they face mounting tension as their teams meet in what may
be the SWC title bout this Saturday in Austin.
The chortles of glee emanating from Fayetteville and
Austin after lop-sided victories in their first three games
will be ended come Sunday morning in one of the two SWC
hamlins. There can be only one victor and a tie will Hot be
welcomed by either.
Though Texas will probably be favored by about a touch
down due to its number one national ranking, Arkansas has
the edge statistically.
The Razorbacks have rushed for 247.3 yards per game
and passed for 161.3 yards per game, giving them a stagger
ing total average of 408.5 yards, while the Longhorns boast
a second place average of 287 yards per game. Defensively,
the teams are surprisingly even, with Arkansas giving up
221 yards per game and Texas allowing 221.5.
The story, lies in the opposition faced by each team.
Arkansas has played comparative ‘patsies’ in Oklahoma State
and Tulsa along with TCU and Baylor. TCU proved dismay
ingly easy after beating a tough Kansas team and coming
within one point of defeating a highly touted Miami of
Florida.
The Razorbacks had to see the clock run out before being
certain they had held off Baylor’s second half rally.
Texas also faced a couple of ‘set-ups’ in Texas Tech and
Tulane but gained their top ranking for their showing against
an Oregon team that crushed favored Rice 31-12 and annual
Longhorn foe Oklahoma.
From this lowly corner, admittedly no serious threat to
the Associated Press, Red Smith or Mickey Herskowitz, it
looks like Arkansas’ seventh ranking is more deserved than
Texas’ top slot.
The Longhorns are still searching for something the
Razorbacks have in abundance—quarterback talent. Porker
Billy Moore has completed an unbelievable 30 passes out of
40 attempts. Moore’s understudy, Bill Gray, has hit on 12
passes out of 17, five for touchdowns.
The Steers depend on the strong running ability of Full
back Ray Poage and Tailback Jerry Cook, third and eighth in
SWC rushing respectively. However, Arkansas holds the
top two spots in this department in the person of Moore and
Fullback Danny Brabham.
Memorial Stadium gives Texas a small advantage, but not
enough.
Arkansas 14, Texas 10.

Tom Gregory. That, with a tw
point conversion, made it 42-6 an
the game ended after the ki
“This just wasn’t A&M’s day,”
said one sportswriter Saturday. He
was referring, in case you haven’t
guessed, to what happened to the
Cadets in Gainesville, Fla., last
weekend—a 42-6 defeat at the
hands of Ray Graves’ inspired
Gators.
Pass interceptions, fumbles and
a little bit of everything told the
story of the hapless Aggies, who
now own a 1-3 record in season
play and face no more intersec
tional opponents. Yeoman defen
sive service by Jerry Pizzatola,
Melvin Simmons, Ken Kipp and
Mike Pitman gave Cadet support
ers only slight consolation.
A&M received the opening kick
off in the ball game, with Travis
Reagan returning to the 24. On
the first scrimmage play a Jim
Keller pass was intercepted by
Gator halfback Lindy Infante.
THE FLORIDA SQUAD was set
up on the Ag 22 and drove to the
two-yard line, where the Army
defense refused to yield a score.
After this, things began to look
even better for the Cadets as they
ran three plays, punted and then
came up with the ball on the same
play after a fumble by Infante.
They couldn’t move the ball, how
ever, and on the ensuing punt
Florida halfback Jerry Newcomer
returned 52 yards to set the Gators
up on the Farmer 15. Newcomer’s
running mate at right half re
lieved him and scored on the first
down play. Kicking specialist
Jimmy Hall converted and the
score read 7-0 with six minutes
left in the first quarter.
On the kickoff George Hargett
returned to the 34 and the Ags
got a good drive started. Sam
Byer, Tommy Meeks, Danny Mc-
Ilhany and Jim Keller moved the
ball to the Gator 15. But the scor
ing bid bogged down here when
Keller missed picking up a first
down.
Florida started to move but
southpaw quarterback Tom Shan
non fumbled and Guy Dillon re
covered on the Ag 48. Ronnie
Ledbetter and Byer tried to get
something going but A&M had to
kick again.
On the first down play that fol
lowed, the bottom fell out of what
looked like a close game. Gator
halfback Bob Hoover scampered 75
yards for a touchdown. Hall con
verted and it was 14-0 with 4:19
left.
THE LAST FOUR minutes of
that first half were probably some
of the worst in the lives of Coach
Hank Foldberg and his ’62 Cadet
gridders.
Reagan fumbled on the kickoff
after the TD and Florida, behind
the running of Larry Dupree, Mack
and Tom Batten, scored a third
time. Hall kicked his third PAT.
The kickoff was lost again, after
Hargett had made a good return
to the 38 and the Gators capital
ized, this time sparked by the pass
ing of Shannon. The scoi'e read
27-0 at the half.
After the second-half kickoff the
Gators drove from their 36 and
Shannon scored from the 9 to make
the'score 34-0.
Then, after one bid failed, the
Ags put together a sustained drive
behind the passing and running of
Hargett, James Willenborg and
Mike Kohlman. Willenborg set the
Ags up on the Florida 3-yard line
and Kohlman battered over on two
plays for the first Aggie score
from scrimmage for the season. A
try for two points failed.
The game settled down to a ball
exchanging battle until the final
seconds when a bad center re
sulted in a blocked Aggie punt
