They were 5-6 for the year after
losing five in a row.
Wigginton’s individual statis
tics were not impressive — he
gained 11 yards in 10 carries and
completed four of 10 passes for
54 yards—but his perfectly timed
pitches on sweeps are what the
wishbone offense was designed
for.
Tailback Mark Green was the
leading rusher in the game with
104 yards in 25 tries. Doug Neill
ran 12 times for 67 yards. Aggie
quarterback Joe Mac King hit on
nine of 19 aerials for 123 yards
and one touchdown. His big tar
gets were Robert Murski, who
caught three for 39 yards, and
Joey Herr, who got 32 yards on
a pair of receptions.
For Texas, Jim Bertelson car
ried the ball 21 times for 79
yards, Don Burrisk ran nine times
for 77 yards and Dan Steakley
got the call three times for 66
yards. He led Longhorn receivers
with two catches for 27 yard.s
A&M looked like the Aggies of
the Cincinnati and Texas Tech
days, playing with effort but
making errors which led to
enemy touchdowns. Three inter
ceptions and two lost fumbles
got them in trouble, and a statis
tical advantage and the usual
hard-hitting defense couldn’t
make up for it.
On the third play from scrim
mage, Burrisk fumbled and Grady
Hoermann recovered. The Aggies
made two first downs, but were
forced to punt. When Texas punt
ed it back five plays later, Hugh
McElroy fumbled the fair catch,
and Jeff Zapalac feel on it at
the A&M 22.
On a fourth and goal two
minutes later, Bertelson went
over left guard for the score.
Steve Valek’s conversion made it
7-0 with 5:29 left in the first
quarter.
The Aggies bounced back, mov
ing to Texas’ 36, where Roberto
Payan’s attempt at a 52 yard
field goal was just short.
In the second quarter, the
Longhorns drove 44 yards in 10
plays and one personal foul pen
alty. Wigginton circled left end
for a yard to get into the end
zone. Valek’s point after made
the score 14-zip with 6:54 show
ing in the half.
After the kickoff, King
launched a pass for Neill, but it
bounced off the fullback and into
the hands of Alan Lowry, who re
turned it 15 yards to the A&M 12.
Dennis Ladd dove off left guard
for one yard and the touchdown
with 3:22 to go in the half.
Valek made it 21-0.
A&M’s offense couldn’t get
enough for a first down, and Rob
ertson’s punt gave the Homs the
ball at midfield. Texas moved to
the four after Burrisk danced 33
yards. He got two more and Ber
telson added one. Burrisk tried
left tackle, but the Aggie de
fensive line couldn’t he penetrat
ed, so Wigginton went to the
right comer for his fourteenth
touchdown of the season, tying
Steve Worster’s school record.
Valek’s kick made it 28-0 with
27 seconds remaining.
After an exchange of punts at
the start of the second half, A&M
had the ball at the Texas 45. King
handed off to Green, who faked
a reverse to Herr. Green rolled to
the right and spotted Homer May
downfield. Lowry got between
the tight end and the dying duck,
and Texas was set to strike again.
Wigginton ran out of the pocket
for 10, Steakley dashed for 44
and Burrisk got 14 to move the
Longhorns to within 12 yards of
another touchdown. Bertelson
capped the 77 yard drive by go
ing eight yards. Valek’s try for
a fifth conversion was wide, and
Texas was out in front 34-0 mid
way in the third period.
After a Lowry punt, King led
his troops 72 yards in 12 plays to
put the Aggies on the board. He
hit Herr for 15 and ran for nine.
Two plays later, Green got 12 and
then eight to move the Aggies to
the Texas 24. Five plays and nine
yards later, King hit Billy Joe
Polasek at the goal line. The sen
ior wingback was interfered
with, but he still caught the bomb
in a crowd for the score. Pat Mc
Dermott added one more to make
it 34-7 with a single second left
in the third stanza.
The defense forced Lowry to
punt to the Aggie 40, but A&M
drew 15 for clipping on the first
play from scrimmage. Not to be
denied, Green ran for six before
King hit Murski for 16. Green’s
run for four more preceded two
incomplete passes. Neill went
from the Texas 48 to the 34 on
a draw, then repeated the play
for five more. King hit Herr for
17, and Neill went off left end for
10 important strides to the two
yard line. Green climaxed the
drive with a run off left end with
10:27 left. McDermott was good
on the conversion to put it at
34-14.
A&M got into Texas territory
once more, but a pass for either
Robertson or Herr was picked off
by Tommy Woodard to end Aggie
hopes.
The Cadet defense had another
busy day. Press box statisticians
created Boice Best with 16 tackles,
Hoermann with 15, David Hoot
with 13, Brad Dusek with 12,
Mike Lord with 11, Van Odom
with 10 and Lee Hitt with nine.
