Coach Gene Stallings summed
Baylor Bears up Tuesday in
weekly press conference as
bout the same type of team as
U is.”
‘They’ve had a week off and
flier the (Js bound to have helped them,”
llings said. “I know that they
it their quarterback but they
it several rest days and several
Intact days in too.”
Baylor’s tentative starter at
-jarterback will be Steve Stuart,
will take over the reins from
^^^"phomore Si Southall (Terry’s
[other) who underwent knee
rgery last Friday and is out
|r the year. However, it was
mart who quarterbacked the
ars last year when they defeat-
the Aggies 10-9 in Waco.
“He’s a good quarterback,”
lallings said. “And this is the
me Baylor team that beat us
it year with 21 starters coming
ck.”
Stallings also noted that the
Bruins had altered their attack
somewhat since the start of the
season and in this respect they
resemble TCU.
“They have dropped their old
style attack with the pro set of
fense and have gone to an attack
which runs right straight at you
with more sprint-out passes,” he
said.
Injuries seem to have finally
caught up with the Aggies after
their clash with the Horned Frogs
Saturday.
“If we had to play today,”
Stallings said, “about eight of
our players couldn’t play. We
had eleven injuries against TCU
but they’re getting better and I
expect most to be ready by Sat
urday night with the exception of
Billy Bob Barnett.
Barnett, the converted basket
ball standout who has started the
last two games at defensive right
end, had his calf stepped on and
it has swollen.
“There was a lot of contact in
this game and more soreness on
the squad,” he continued, “prob
ably more than any game we’ve
played this year.”
Stallings cited several factors
which might have led to the Ag
gies’ loss to the Horned Frogs
which to some may have looked
one-sided, but according to Stal
lings was really not.
“After viewing the films of the
game, we were pleased with the
performances at most positions.
But TCU played well too.
“The difference in the game
was their ability to keep the foot
ball for seven minutes into the
wind in the first and fourth quar
ters.”
Their line blocked well, Whe
lan (tailback Marty, who gained
134 yards) ran well, and their
quarterback (Steve Judy) did a
good job.
Stallings named some plays
which could have turned the tide
and one of them was the Aggies’
mixup at the end of the first

quarter when time ran out be
fore they could get away a field
goal with the wind. As it turned
out, the quarter ended and they
had to kick into the wind and
Mike Bellar kicked the ball true
but it fell short in the end zone.
“I honestly don’t know what
was wrong. I can’t say that our
kicker was at fault because I
could have called time out my
self.”
“Another big play was the long
pass to Brupbacher. He was not
to blame because he was trying
to gain every yard he could but
fumbled and instead of us hav
ing it on their 20, they recovered
it.
“The big play was the punt
which the TCU boy dropped and
Brupbacher recovered but TCU
got it instead on their 17. Any
one of these could have changed
the outcome of the game.”
Several players were singled
out by Stallings as having played
well despite the outcome.
“Larry Stegent played well al
though he didn’t pick up much
yardage, and the Odom brothers
and Buster Adami played pretty
well. Our offensive line even
blocked pretty well but it seemed
like five guys would block well
and one wouldn’t and ruin the
play.
“You know if the line opens a
hole and nobody blocks the line
backer, it can mean the differ
ence between a one-yard gain and
a 15-yard one.”
There will be no personnel
changes for the Baylor clash
aside from Wayne Wheat, who
may take Barnett’s place.

Wins Two Games
By Mike Wright
Assistant Sports Editor
The Texas Aggie Soccer team
(4-0) rolled to two victories this
weekend over Texas Christian
University (2-1) and the Univer
sity of Texas at Arlington (1-0)
as they moved into second place
in the Texas Collegiate Soccer
League behind St. Mary’s Univer
sity of San Antonio.
The Saturdaay morning game

Redskin Runner
Makes His Move
NEW YORK (A*)—Larry Brown,
a No. 8 draft pick by the Wash
ington Redskins, has moved into
the runnerup spot among the Na
tional Football League’s rushers
in the latest statistical release.
When Vince Lombardi came to
Washington, one of his first
moves was to strengthen the
ground game to provide some
support for Sonny Jurgensen’s
passing. Brown, a 5-foot-ll,
195-pound rookie from Kansas
State, has helped beef up the
Skins running game.
Brown picked up 105 yards in
17 carries last Sunday against
the New York Giants and moved
from fifth to second among the
rushers.
Calvin Hill, the Dallas rookie
from Yale, continues to show the
way with 412 yards on 80 carries.
Ron Johnson of Cleveland, the
Michigan rookie, is third for a
1-2-3 sweep by first year men.
lighted by the ability of the Ag
gie bootens to control the ball put
pressure against the stubborn
Frog defense.
Although scoring only two
goals, the Aggies kept the TCU
offense bottled up in their own
end of the field and out of strik
ing distance.
The Aggies scored in the
second period of play when Carl
os Garza punched in a goal.
Later team Captain Roberto Pro-
venzale booted in a goal to end
the scoring for the Aggies.
The Aggies were scheduled to
play the Rebels in Arlington but
at the last moment they forfeited
the game.
The Aggies face a very im
portant contest this Saturday. The
hooters will host the University
of Houston Cougars on the drill
field in front of the MSC at 2
p. m.
The Cougars are fresh off a
tie with the University of Texas
at Austin this past weekend.
Down 3-1 in the second half, the
Cougs knotted the game with two
quick goals to hand Texas a tie.
It was the closest thing to a loss
Texas has suffered since 1967,
because the Longhorns went un
defeated last year.
St. Mary’s leads the curcuit,
followed by A&M, Houston, TCU,
Rice, Trinity, Texas, Texas Tech,
UTA, and Schreiner.
Other games this week put Rice
against Texas, Texas Tech travel
ing to Schreiner, and UTA at
Trinity. All games are scheduled
for Saturday.
