It happens as soon as you

Because Sprite is so utterly noisy.
Cascading in crescendos of effervescent

And voila! You have your

THE BATTALION
It’s Not The Same Now
By GARY SHERER
Last year Coach Gene Stallings’
Texas Aggie football team
readied for their trip to Baton
Rouge with an 0-2 record and
some bruised football players.
This season, on the surface, it
looks about the same. The Aggies
have lost their first two games
and are suffering from some
bruises after their battle with
Purdue last week.
Also, the team the Aggies will
be playing, the LSU Tigers, are
about the same as last year—-a
cccbruising ball club!
This year LSU Coach Charley
McClendon hopes he has quarter
back Nelson Stokley healthy
enough for a complete season.
Stokley is the key to the Bayou
Bengals’ attack and last week he
proved this fact to the Rice Owls.
Along with Stokley, LSU boasts
a tough, heavy defense. In end
John Garlington and linebacker
George Sevan, the Tigers have
two efficient defensive perform
ers. Coach Stallings also brought
out at his press conference this
week that LSU has their usual
tough ball club.
However, things aren’t the
same as last year. This is the
same team as last season but
with a year’s experience under
their belts. Last year’s club only
had 16 points scored at this point
in the season, this year’s edition
has 37. Once more, the defense
has given up less than 15 last year.
Things definitely are different
and Saturday night’s match with
the Tigers and next week’s meet
ing with the Florida State Semi-
noles will go towards showing
how different.
With the present abundance of
injuries, both offensive and de
fensive lineups have plenty of
either/or situation^ facing them
just prior to Saturday night’s
kickoff. The only players that
probably won’t play are senior
defensive end Grady Allen and
sophomore lineman Bill Kubecka.
Both have shoulder problems.
Last week, Aggie quarterback
Edd Hargett went to the air 34
times, while the week before run
ning had been the offense. Stall
ings hopes that LSU won’t know
what to expect from his Aggie
offense Saturday night.
The running attack may be
hampered somewhat with Wendell
Housley and Larry Stegent ham
pered with injuries. Both will be
ready to play, however, by game
time. Sophomore Ross Brup-
bacher should see more action and
fullback Bill Sallee is also ready
to go. The receiving corps is in
good shape with Bob Long, Tom
my Maxwell and Tom Buckman
all sound and ready.
Last year, the Aggies battled
the Tigers to a 7-7 tie. The second
half of that game, the Aggies
pushed LSU all over the field but
couldn’t get the winning score.
What was significant about that
game was that the Aggies got
their offense in gear. After that
game, the Maroon and White
rolled up three straight Southwest
Conference victories to take the
early conference lead.
Another tough game for the
Aggies, but that road back is
starting to take shape. So hold
on to your bumper stickers and
watch out, LSU!

Soccer Team
Plays LSU
Texas A&M’s soccer team tests
its offensive strength Saturday
in a 2 p.m. match with Louisiana
State at Baton Rouge.
The team, 10-1 victor over
Allen Academy last week, will
attempt to promote defensive ef
forts to go with the scoring punch
provided by Abdelhamid Zid of
Zaghouan, Tunisia, and Ramiro
Rubio of Lima, Peru. Defensively,
the Aggies can count on goal
keeper Carlos Guerra of Mara
caibo, Venezuela; Armando Velar
de, Lima, and Geoffrey Matthews,
Washington, D. C.
Six players scored in the first
win, with Zid contributing three
goals from his forward position.
The team plays in the Texas
