Fumble Didn’t Kill
Stallings’ Hopes
By JOHN PLATZER
Even after giving the ball up
on a fumble at the Louisiana
State one foot line with 5:32
left in the game and A&M trail
ing 13-12 Saturday, Coach Gene
Stallings felt that his squad would
come back to get the win.
“I thought we would win the
game even when Long fumbled,”
Stallings said at Tuesday’s press
conference.
“I thought we would get the
ball back with about 2 1 / & minutes
and 3 time outs left and at least
get into position for a field goal.”
LSU was able to rip off three
first downs at this point, how
ever, while forcing the Aggies
to use up all their time outs and
running the clock down to :33
seconds. This, according to Stall
ings, was the most disappointing
aspect of the loss for the Ag
gies.
WHEN A&M eventually got
the ball back on a fumble at their
own 38, they had time for only
four passes, one complete, before
attempting a 61-yard field goal
on the game’s last play.
Stallings said that he now
thinks he made a mistake in pre
paring the Aggies for LSU.
“We had no full speed contact
after the Wednesday before the
game and that was my mistake,”
Stallings said.
One of A&M’s major weak
nesses this season, a lack of depth,
was a crucial aspect of the opener.
LSU used over 50 players during
the hot, humid night while the
Aggies (“playing the best we
got”) used a total of 27 men, 13
on defense and 14 on offense, not
counting those on the specialty
squads.
IVAN JONES and Mike De-
Niro were singled out by the
Aggie coach as having played
consistently well during the game.
“DeNiro played a good game
for a sophomore,” Stallings said.
“He was in on 24 tackles, which
is a lot of tackles for a defensive
end.”
Ross Brupbacher, A&M’s de
fensive right halfback, will prac
tice at fullback this week and
may see action at that spot Sat
urday against Tulane, Stallings
revealed yesterday. If Brupbacher
should move to offense, Tom Sooy
or Jack Whitmore may play the
defensive halfback.
BACK TO WORK
Defense was stressed at Tuesday’s football workout at A&M as the Aggies started pre
paration for the Tulane game this weekend in New Orleans. Mike DeNiro, one of the
brightest spots for the Aggies in their 13-12 loss to LSU last week, is shown above work

Coach Says Tiger Offense
Improved In Loss To Klein
The A&M Consolidated Tigers
will go after their first win of
the season Friday night when
they tangle with the Del Valle
Cardinals here at 8 p.m.
Coach Jack Churchill felt the
Tigers were in the game last
week against the tough Klein
Bear Cats but faltered in the
final minutes, taking a 16-7 de
feat.
“I felt the team had improved
greatly over our first game and
we were very pleased that we
were able to move the ball as
well as we did against Klein,”
Churchill said.
“We are looking ahead to Del
Valle this week and hope to move
the ball better than last week
even though Del Valle is just as
big as Klein was,” he continued.
Consolidated lost linebacker
Richie Wooten, who suffered a
jammed neck in the Klein tussle
and is expected to be out of ac
tion for at least two weeks. Good
news for the Tigers is that both
of their starting guards, Bob
Liverman and Tat Marek, are
expected to be at full speed for
the Del Valle game.
Del Valle went to the Class
A A schoolboy quarter-finals in
1967 and are currently 1-0 in
season action. Last week they
wiped out Southside of San An
tonio, 51-0 and field one of the
largest teams the Tigers will face
CARRY IT.
