SATURDAY Arkansas scouting report. . . Ags face tough Hog BY VICTOR MOORE Battalion Sports Writer The Texas Aggies (2-5), (0-3), losers of their last five games, have nothing to look forward to Saturday afternoon when the powerful Arkansas Razorbacks (5-1), (2-0) invade College Sta tion to do bodily harm to the Aggie football team. The Razorbacks, after bowing to Stanford in their opener, 34- 28, loaded both guns, cranked up their scoring production, put a brick wall across their goal line, and proceeded to defeat Okla homa State 23-7, Tulsa 49-7, TCU 49-14, Baylor 41-7, and Wichita State 62-0. In so doing, Arkan sas again gained a top ten rank ing as number eight in the nation. Arkansas’ defense led the na tion last year against scoring, averaging 7.6 points per game. This year they’ve only allowed an average of 11.1 points per game for the season and 7 points per game since going on their winning barrage. The Razor- back offense has scored 252 points this season for an average of 42 points per game. Comparing scores between com mon opponents A&M and Arkan sas have faced this year, they both have faced Wichita State, winning 41-14 and 62-0 respec tively, although Arkansas did not face the same team the Aggies opened against. In fact the first team offense was in for only eight plays as they left the game midway through the first quar ter. Both teams have also faced Baylor and TCU. The Aggies lost to the Bears 29-24 and TCU 31-15, while the Razorbacks de molished the Bears 41-7 and de stroyed TCU 49-14. Arkansas has the big play men in their offense in the persons of quarterback Bill Montgomery, tailback Bill Burnett and split end Chuck Dicus. All are seniors and legitimate All-America can didates. Montgomery, the cool, calm collected quarterback, is a top candidate for All-Southwest Con ference honors. So far this year, Montgomery has thrown 95 times completing 53 for 878 yards, hav ing four intercepted. He also has carried the ball 47 times for 226 yards. Dicus is the leading pass re ceiver for the Razorbacks. In his first five games, Dicus has caught 20 passes for 348 yards. He is also a running threat with the end around. His longest run ning gain has been 32 yards. Burnett is the leading running back for the Razorbacks this fall. Ift 96 tries this year, he has gained 408 yards, the longest be ing a 21 yard romp. Burnett is the one to look for when Arkan sas gets close to the goal. He was the leading scorer in the con ference last year, scoring 20 times for 120 points and is at it again. Through the first five games, Burnett has scored ten times. Joining Burnett will be Russ Garber, the number two rusher for Arkansas gaining 223 yards on 47 carries. When Burnett is resting on the sidelines, he will be replaced by Jon Richardson, an exciting sophomore, who, in brief duty, has gained 200 yards in 35 carries. The biggest headache for coach Frank Broyles this season was replacing three key members of the offensive line. The losses were All-American center Rod ney Brand; All-Conference guard Jerry Dossey, and right tackle Bob Stankovich. Terry Hopkins (6-0, 200), Ronnie Bennett (6-3, 245), and Tom Mabry (6-6, 248) respectively have replaced the graduates. Other solid performers in the offensive line will be returning starters Mike Kelson (6-4, 230), Ronnie Hammers (6-3, 230), Pat Morrison (6-2, 220), at tackle, guard, and tight end respectively. Morrison is the number two* ceiver behind Dicus; throughli first five games he has cauj eleven for 122 yards. The defense returns six sti ers, including All - Confen Tackle Rick Kersey.

Finley does a workmanlike job game after game but has not re ceived a lot of public acclaim. He moved into the No. 1 right linebacker’s slot last spring and stayed there until last Saturday when A&M’s new defensive alignment saw him switching to defensive end. He’s the type of player that Coach Gene Stallings likes, a hit ter or a contact player. He had his most outstanding game against Michigan in Ann Arbor in A&M’s fourth game of the season. In that one he was a demon on defense with 14 tackles. At 6-0 and 200, Finley isn’t ex ceptionally large but he hits with the authority of a player much bigger. Finley was an all-district of fensive and defensive end for Coach Merrill Green at Abilene Cooper High. He played defen sive rover for the A&M Fish last season. football at Texas A&M. A physical education major, he plans a career in coaching after he is graduated from A&M. He is the son bf Mr. and Mrs. Bruce K. Finley of 1766 Jeanette in Abilene. His father is a sales man in Abilene. Kent and the rest of the Ag gie defense have their work cut out this week when they against the powerful Arte attack. You can rest assured that! ley will be one youngster wl: do some heavy hitting when Razorbacks run his way. that type of competitor. It has been a frustrating, dis appointing season for the young Aggies but Finley, like the oth ers, won’t let it get him down. He knows the Aggies are due for an abrupt change for the better and he just keeps bearing down on every play. In addition to his football, Kent played the outfield on Cooper’s baseball team in Abi lene. But, he is specializing in Kent Finley COURT’S SADDLERY..
