“They give great effort on
every play,” he said. “They come
at you pretty well with great
pursuit and tackling.”
The big question in everyone’s
mind at this stage is whether
the Cadets are as good as they
have performed for the last two
weeks. They are sporting a 2-0
record for the year holding a

STALLINGS
in their opener and then thump
ing Vanderbilt, 16-6, Saturday.
Odds makers are favoring the
Black Knights by seven points
but the Aggies could pull an up
set if they improve over last
week’s performance against the
Nebraska Cornhuskers.
“I thought we played a whole
lot better defensively,” Stallings
said. “We hit pretty well. Our
pass defense was poor but our
rush was better than it has been.”
One bright spot in the Aggie
picture was the return of tailback
Larry Stegent, who, despite hav
ing one day of contact practice
this year, was in on 67 plays in
the Nebraska game and perform
ed “pretty well.”
Stegent, a prime All-America
candidate for the Aggies, missed
the LSU contest recuperating
from a pulled hamstring. He was
not expected to see any action
against the Cornhuskers but fin
ished with 23 yards rushing and
22 yards on five pass receptions.
Another plus for A&M was the
emergence of sophomore Rocky
Self at quarterback He took over
for junior Jimmy Sheffield and
demonstrated to everyone the
ability to move the team.
“Rocky played a good game
and moved the football well,”
Stallings said. “He made a couple
of poor decisions that sophomores
sometimes make but if we had to
play today, he would be my
quarterback.”
Another development which
was a mild surprise was the ele
vation of sophomore Joe Mac
King to second-team quarterback.
“We are going to give King a
look at quarterback behind Self,”
Stallings continued, “because we
hope that he can help to keep
us from losing, you’ve got to
that before you can win.”
Stallings explained that keep
ing us from losing means doing
things like throwing the ball away
when a receiver is covered in
stead of trying to get it to him
and chance an interception and
learning to take a loss instead
of throwing an interception.
Sheffield has been demoted to
third behind Self and King but
he will still handle the punting
for the Aggies.
Other changes announced by
Stallings were in the offensive
line where junior Mike Fields, a
6-3, 225-pounder, and Ted Smith,
a 6-4, 220-pound sophomore,
would get a shot at weak tackle.
Barney Harris was mentioned
by Stallings as having played
well in the Nebraska tilt on the
offensive team with seven re
ceptions for 89 yards. Others
mentioned for their play besides
Stegent and Self were fullback
Marc Black and tight end Ross
Brupbacher.
On the defensive side, lineback
er Mike DeNiro received much
of Stallings’ praise as he led the
team with 16 tackles. Seniors
Lynn Odom and Jim Piper also
were listed as playing well. Soph
omore Mike Bunger started for
the first time at rover for the
Aggies against the Cornhuskers
and Stallings said that he did a
fair job.
“The kicking game was greatly
improved over the LSU game,”
Stallings said. “Sheffield did a
fine job, he kicked one out on
their seven-yard line and another
on the three.”
The Aggie returning teams
also received praise for their im
provement as they held Nebras
ka’s return yardage down to 31
total including punts and kick
offs. Dave Elmendorf’s fine 55-
yard return of a punt was also
mentioned.
