^Aggies facing rough schedule (Continued from page 3) lime fine ones. Raymond Rhodes, \!oted the Outstanding Offensive Ireshnian in the SWC last fall, Till step in at a halfback spot. Rhodes has outstanding speed, as loes junior college transfer Lar- iy Harris, also a halfback hope ful. I Although they are a very young learn, the Frogs could be very lough as the season progresses. Ihe Frogs meet the Aggies on Kyle Field on Oct. 17. BAYLOR | Having no where to go but up, Baylor will rely on their strong luit of four players returning who tarted the final game of 1969 on jffense and six on defense. Coach Bill Beall feels the Bears are headed up if last year’s injury jinx stays away. “We’ve jot some players who will hit. rhey’ll go after that ball on de fense,” he says. Quarterback Laney Cook, full back Randy Cooper and tailback- flanker Derek Davis top the list of offensive starters. Guard Gil bert Beall is the only returnee in the line, but the Bruins have some good sized contestants for the other slots. Joe Allbrith, 231, Ron Evans, 239, and Jess Young, 250, could find spots in the inte rior line. Sterling newcomers and some talented veterans mark the de fense. Returning starters are de fensive end Dennis Watson, tackle Glen Chmelar, linebacker David Jones, tackle Gary Sutton and linebacker T*mmy Bambrick. Soph Roger Goree is expected to handle the other defensive end spot while rookies Trent Phipps, Don Aylor and Mike Wilder will add depth to the line. Sophomore Rick Schmidt is a top linebacker candidate while swift Ira Dean is expected to join Bambrick and Mike Beane in the secondary. The Bruins’ chances could be boosted considerably with quar terback Si Southall returning from a knee operation. The Bears meet A&M in Waco on Oct. 24. ARKANSAS It looks like another good sea son for the Razorbacks with Coach Frank Broyles returning 13 starters from last season’s 9-2 team. All-America candidate Bill Montgomery heads the list of re turnees at quarterback. Mont gomery got off to a slow start last year following an operation after an outstanding sophomore season. But by the end of the season, he was as sharp as ever. But Mongomery will have to stay that sharp to fend off an attack on his slot by precocious sophomore Joe Ferguson. Among the veterans returning are record-breaking runner Bill Burnett and record-breaking catcher Chuck Dicus, both All- SWC players. Tackle Mike Kel son, guard Ronnie Hammers and tight end Pat Morrison return, but All-America center Rodney Brand, All-SWC guard Jerry Dos- sey and tackle Bob Stankovich are not returning. Back on the defensive line are Rick Kersey, Dick Bumpas and Bruce James. Mike Boschetti re turns at linebacker, but Cliff Powell and Lynn Garner will be hard to replace. Monster Man Bobby Field, de fensive halfback Jerry Moore and safety Gus Rusher give the Pork ers a solid secondary. Top newcomers are tailback Jon Richardson, and receivers Jim Hodge and Mike Reppond. The Razorbacks meet the Ags in Col lege Station on Oct. 31. SOUTHERN METHODIST There will be no question marks hovering over the Mustangs this year with Chuck Hixson throwing the ball. The SMU passer enters his sen ior season with nearly every SWC and national NCAA record in his bag. He has completed more passes for more yards than any quarterback ever in two years. After an outstanding 1968 sea son, the Mustangs fell to a 3-7 season last year due to injuries in the offensive line. Coach Hay den Fry hopes those problems are gone so Hixson can get on with throwing the ball without being smothered as he often was last season. The SWC’s Sophomore of the Year last year, Gary Hammond, is back. He has been switched to halfback in an attempt to give him more chances with the ball. He also returns punts and kick offs. Gordon Gilder, the Ponies’ shifty halfback, also had a fine sophomore year. Gilder will team up with Hammond to keep oppo nents wary of the Pony running game. The Mustangs return Bull Jack- son and top receiver Ken Fleming in the offensive line. The defense should be tight with linebacker Joe Stutts head ing the veterans. Mike Nekuza, Pat Curry and Larry Tunnell give SMU an experienced and talented secondary. Jim Johnston is an outstanding defensive tackle. The Ponies meet A&M in Dal las on Nov. 7. RICE The Owls loom as a strong darkhorse in this year’s SWC race under the guidance of Bo Hagan. Rice has 39 lettermen back from a 3-7 season last year. A lot of talent, both offensive ly and defensively, is available to Hagan. Eight starters return on offense and 10 on defense. The letterman available are split 18 for offense and 21 for defense. The starting backfield returns nearly in tact, not counting a key position change. Stable Vin cent, last season’s top quarter back, will return as tailback. Mike Spruill and Kim Malone showed a lot of power at fullback last sea son, and Larry Caldwell is a top- notch flanker. Philip Wood is now all alone with the quarter back position.

The Rice defense abounds with talented players. The linebacking pair of Monte Hutchinson and Dale Grounds may be the best in the conference. Roger Roitsch is an All-America candidate at de fensive guard, while Butch Rob inson and Roger Collins are fine defensive ends. The Owls have 22 senior letter- men, 15 of whom have won two letters. Top newcomer is tight end Gary Butler. The Owls meet the Aggies on Kyle Field on Nov. 14. UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS Speaking of a tough act to follow . . . Coach Darrell Royal’s team comes into this season with a 20-game winning streak, includ ing two straight Cotton Bowl wins. This doesn’t include the na tional championship, either. However, the quarterback who took Texas to those wins is gone, along with several other top flight players. James Street has completed his eligibility as have All-America tackle Bob McKay, center Forrest Wiegand, halfback Ted Koy, tight end Randy Peschel, linebacker Glen Halsell, Mike and Tom Campbell and defensive tackle Leo Brooks. Fred Stein- mark, safety, and defensive guard Greg Ploetz are also gone. But the Longhorns aren’t hurt ing for talent. Cotton Speyrer, the speedy split end, is back, along with All-America fullback Steve Worster, All-SWC halfback Jim Bertelson, tackle Bobby Wuensch, guards Bobby Mitchell and Mike Dean, defensive ends Bill Atessis and David Arledge, and linebackers Scott Henderson and Bill Zapalac. Eddie Phillips, No. 2 behind Street, is top candidate for quar terback. Gary Keithley, a preco cious soph who can throw as well as run, is also a prospect. Billy Dale has taken over Key’s vacated halfback slot. Outstanding sophomores Bruce Gaw, Jerry Sisemore, Bill Ruther ford, Stan Hicks and Steve Ox ley are vying for positions in the offensive and defensive line, while Julius Whittier, another sophomore, has been moved to linebacker. Texas will clash with the Ags on Nov. 26 in Austin.

The 1970 Aggies will be bigger, stronger and perhaps a bit faster than last year’s club. Ability, in many cases, will compensate for lack of experience.
