THE BATTALION
Costly Mistakes Lead To Aggies’ Downfall, 14-0
By Richard Campbell
Battalion Sports Editor
The Texas Aggies, plagued
constantly by costly interceptions
and fumbles, punched everywhere
but over the goal line Saturday
as they fell to the Nebraska Corn-
huskers, 14-0, before a packed
house of 66,331 and a regional
television audience.
It was the first shutout of the
Aggies in 26 games as they
knocked on the door several times
but couldn’t put the ball across.
Four different times A&M was
inside the Nebraska 10-yard line
and failed to score.
“This indicates either a good
defense or poor offense,” Coach
Gene Stallings said. “They made
some good defensive plays.”
The first quarter was relative
ly uneventful with neither team
able to move the ball consistently
until Nebraska’s Jim Anderson
intercepted a Jimmy Sheffield
pass on the 20 and scotted to
the A&M three. Reserve Nebras
ka quarterback Jerry Tagge re
placed injured Van Brownson and
handed the ball to soph Jeff Kin
ney, who plunged three yards
for the touchdown. Paul Rogers
converted and Nebraska led, 7-0.
The Aggies got their first break
minutes later as they recovered
a Frank Vactor fumble on the
mm
Cornhusker six. But Aggie tail
back Larry Stegent was trapped
for a six-yard loss and it was
second and goal from the 12. On
the next play Stegent regained
the six yards on a sweep around
right end. But on the next play
Sheffield’s pass, intended for Bar
ney Harris, was intercepted by
Randy Reeves in the end zone.
m
The second quarter was all
Nebraska as Tagge hit on pass
after pass for short yardage and
Nebraska began to march. Tagge
mixed up his plays with short

Player of the Week
Sophomore quarterback Rocky Self rose to the occasion
Saturday against the Nebraska Cornhuskers to become the
Battalion’s Player-Of-The-Week.
The 6—1, 178-pound signal caller from San Antonio
took over for Jimmy Sheffield in the second quarter and
finished the game with 16 completions in 31 attempts for
136 yards and reeled off several timely runs to keep the
Aggies in contention.
Self was an all-district, all-city, and all-state quarterback
at San Antonio MacArthur under Coach Joe Bill Fox. He was
also all-district in basketball and baseball. He won his fish
numeral in 1967 with 51 completions for 698 yards.
Thus far this year he has completed 23 of 49 for 219
yards and one touchdown. Coach Gene Stallings said after
Saturday’s performance that “if we had to play today, Self
would be my starting quarterback.”

Ne-
throws to tight end Jim McFar
land and handoffa to sophomore
workhorse Kinney. The Buskers
marched 93 yards in 16 plays
capped by a one-yard Tagge keep
er for the score. Rogers again
converted and the scoring for the
afternoon was ended as the Busk
ers took a 14-0 lead.
Early in the second quarter
Stallings gave sophomore quar
terback Rocky Self a shot at
running the team and run them
he did. Once he got his passing
arm warmed up in the third quar
ter, the Aggies began to march
also. But again breaks told the
story as A&M drove from their
own 30 paced by Self’s darting
runs to the Husker five where
Stegent lost the handle on a
pitchout and Nebraska recovered,
Dave Elmendorf brought the
crowd to its feet in the final
period with an electrifying 55-
yard punt return to the Nebraska
25. But five plays later a Sell
aerial was picked off by Dana
Stephenson on the one and re
turned to the Nebraska 40. The
Aggies had only one more chance
as the clock ticked off the final
minute and Self moved the team
from their own 20 to the Busker
36 with five of eight completions
but time ran out and the Aggies
were left outside the door again,
There were several key players
who played well despite the dis
appointing loss and Stallings
singled out Self as his “No. 1
quarterback, if we had to play
today.” He also named both Odom
brothers and linebackers Mike
DeNiro and Buster Adami as
having played well.
ROCKY SELF
Aggies To Invade West Point
During Army’s Homecoming
Saturday will be Homecoming
in Army’s Michie Stadium when
the Texas Aggies pay a visit
there. And it will be a homecom
ing of sorts for A&M fullback
Marc Black.
After an All-America high
school career at New Mexico Mili
tary Institute (he twice scored
five touchdowns in one game),
Black was a popular choice of a
great many college recruiters.
But the all-around athlete's cri
teria for a college quickly nar
rowed the list.
“I wanted a school with a mili
tary background and a strong
football program,” Black says.
The obvious choices were West
Point and Texas A&M. Needless
to say, the Aggies won that con
test between the schools.
The Aggies waited two years,
though, to see how Black turned
out. He missed his freshman sea
son due to a knee injury. Then
coach Gene Stallings elected to
redshirt Black last year since the
Aggies had a pair of experienced
backs.
In the meantime, Black wasn’t
twiddling his thumbs. He threw
the javelin 201 feet for the A&M
track team and just missed plac
ing in the Southwest Conference
meet. (Black still holds the New
Mexico schoolboy javelin record.)
In his first real test last spring,
Black moved right in as the No. 1
fullback and gained 142 yards in
the spring game. His varsity
debut came against LSU in Baton
Rouge two weeks ago. The 6-2,
212-pounder carried the ball seven
times for 30 yards, a respectable
4.5 yard average. He also caught
two passes and drew praise from
Stallings for his blocking.
Sample Cuts
Pete Rozelle
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. </P> —
Johnny Sample, New York Jets
cornerback, said Monday that
football would be better off with
out Pete Rozelle, the commission
er of professional football.
“He’s no more than a dicta
tor,” Sample told a news confer
ence at which he announced that
he plans to publish a series of
books on black athletes and their
struggle for equality in profes
sional sports.
“As a person, Rozelle has too
much power,” Sample said. “He’s
biased against the AFL because
it was the NFL which gave him
his job.”
Sample’s first book, set for
completion early next year, will
be on his dozen years in profes
sional football. The book is half
finished.
Sample believes that after it
is published, Rozelle may ask the
other teams not to grant inter
views for the book series.
Sample, a Negro, says that al
though Negro and white football
players on the Jets are a closely
knit lot, there is still much left
to be desired on the working re
lationship between Negro players
and management in pro football
as a whole.
“Negro players are offered
lower salaries to begin with. Man
agement thinks you should be
grateful to get that,” Sample said.
