Bellard Says At Press Conference
Nebraska Will Be Ready For Aggies
By BILL HENRY
Battalion Sports Elditor
Beating Nebraska is never an
easy assignment but especially
after the Huskers lose the game
before yours.
That is what the Aggies are
faced with this Saturday after
noon in Lincoln.
“It’s not an easy task anytime
but it will be exceptionally tough
this week,” Bellard said Tuesday
in his second weekly press con
ference. “They have a great foot
ball team. They have great of
fensive and defensive players as
well as a great kicking team and
a great coach. You can’t do much
better than that.”
Bellard is not giving up before
the ball is put into play by any
means but he is giving the Husk-
Aggies Lead SWC
In Offensive Stats
DALLAS—Just like you’d ex
pect, the Wishbone T is the lead
ing Southwest Conference offense
at this early point in the 1972
season and the Arkansas receiver
is the most productive pass grab
ber.
But the difference is that the
Wishbone T belongs to Texas
A&M and the Arkansas receiver
is really the OTHER Arkansas
receiver.
The Aggies became the SWC’s
most offensive crew after the
three-team start of last Saturday,
rolling up 432 yards in total of
fense and 363 yards on the ground
in a 36-13 victory over Wichita
State. It was a satisfying open
ing for the Aggies under new
head coach Emory Bellard, one
of the chief builders of the Texas
Wishbone T formation before
moving on to College Station
after last season.
And the Arkansas passing
game, effectively throttled by the
talent-laden Southern California
in the Trojans’ 31-10 victory at
Little Rock, still managed league
leaders.
Jim Hodge and SWC receiving
champ Mike Reppond each
grabbed seven Joe Ferguson
aerials, but Hodge proved the
biggest threat by netting 127
yards on his receptions to Rep-
pond’s 59 yards.
Ferguson, the 1971 passing
champ with almost twice as many
completions as runner-up Bruce
Gadd of Rice (160-87), opened
with an even wider spread over
Gadd. Ferguson hit on 19 of 36,
while Gadd was hitting on eight
of 17 in Rice’s 14-13 victory over
Houston.
A&M’s Mark Green, who con
verted from quarterback to tail
back midway of last season with
instant success, kept up the good
work in his debut as a Wishbone
halfback. The 6-4 junior from
Odessa rushed for 165 yards, well
ahead of runner-up John Coleman,
the Rice freshman who amassed
84 yards against Houston. It was
Green’s best day as a collegian,
eclipsing the 161 yards he gained
last year against SMU when he
rushed a conference record 41
times.
Green claims leads in two other
statistical categories, tying with
Edwin Collins of Rice for the
scoring lead with 12 points each
and leading in kickoff returns
with a 30-yard average.
Gary Whitehead of A&M took
the tandem offense (yards gained
rushing and receiving) lead with
74 yards. Whitehead’s total 1971
production was 12 yards in two
carries, in the Wichita State
game; last Saturday against
Wichita he rushed for 54 yards
and caught two passes for 20
Teammate Grady Hoermann
likewise improved his statistical
record by grabbing the intercep
tion lead with a pair of thefts.
In two previous varsity seasons
Hoermann had snared only one
interception, 16 games earlier in
his sophomore season against
Baylor.
Punters Mark Williams of Rice,
who led the SWC last season, and
Robert Murski of A&M are in
a dead heat after one game. Both
punted five times, both totaled
194 yards for a 38.8-yard average.
ers what they’re due.
Before last week’s 20-17 upset
at the hands of UCLA, Nebraska
had not lost a game in over two
years and were the pre-season
pick as the team to beat again
in 1972.
“Our team gained confidence
last week against Wichita and it
answered a lot of questions both
the players and the coaches had,”
he said. “I saw the things that I
thought were there during work
outs.”
The Aggies’ new head coach
was pleased with what he saw
in his opening debut win over
Wichita.
“We did make some mental
errors but the errors were made
going full speed and those kind
of mistakes can be eliminated.
We were able to see where we
are and where we’re going. We’re
not the finished product yet by
any means but we do have some
players that can play football for
us and we’re going to get better
as time goes on.”
Bellard singled out several
players in the Nebraska lineup
including the fabulous Johnny
Rodgers.
“Rodgers is probably the best
big-play football player in the
nation,” he said. “He can break
a game open from almost any
where on the field and from
numerous different positions. He
runs the ball well from the back-
field, catches well and is a great
return man for punts and kick
off.”
Noseguard Rich Glover, con
sensus All-America last season
and a scheduled repeater this
year, also drew comments from
Bellard.
“Having him on your team is
like having an extra player he’s
so quick.”
Aggie players got rave reviews
from Bellard also as he singled
out senior quarterback Lex
James, junior defensive tackle
Bill Wiebald and senior middle
linebacker Grady Hoermann.
“Lex played real well having
his pitchouts on target and time
ly in what you could call adverse
conditions with the field being so
slippery. Wiebold graded 100 per
cent for his defensive play and
Grady had a great game getting
two interceptions and some great
tackles.
“Overall, the defense graded
very high against Wichita.”
Some adjustments will be made
this week in practice on the A&M
kickoff coverage team. Wichita
scored both its touchdowns due to
a lack of coverage by the Aggies.
“We’ll definitely have to make
some radical improvements with
our kickoff team as we’ll be kick
ing to the best return man in the
nation in Rodgers,” Bellard said.
Bellard said his Aggies plan to
do what UCLA did in beating
Nebraska this week.
“UCLA just played steady, pa
tient football and waited for the
breaks,” he said. “They played
consistent and capitalized on five
Nebraska turnovers. We are not
going to prepare any differently
than we did for Wichita State;
we’ll just be looking at a differ
ent defense.”
It should be noted that UCLA’s
head coach, Pepper Rogers, scout
ed the Bellard Wishbone last
spring and began using it this
wxtmm
If UCLA borrowed something
from A&M, maybe A&M can bor
row something from UCLA—like
the secret on how to beat Nebras
ka, since they discovered it.

TCU Sports News Service
Picks Aggies Close To Top
FORT WORTH—For the first
time in six years a Southwest
Conference school other than the
University of Texas has been
given the nod as the prospective
SWC grid champ—Arkansas.
The Razorbacks of Frank
Broyles are the choice in the
poll conducted annually by the
TCU Sports News Service, taking
the honor away from Texas for
the first time since 1967.
On nine occasions since the
poll began in 1934 the poll’s se
lection has been accurate. On
(three other years the media’s
choice finished in a tie for the
championship, including the 1968
tie of Texas and Arkansas.
Seventy-five of the 104 media
voters picked the Hogs in the
No. 1 spot with seven others pre
dicting an Arkansas tie for first.
Texas and Texas A&M follow
ed Arkansas in the second and
third spots. The Longhorns took
a total of 17 first place votes for
an outright championship, not
including six tie votes. Texas
A&M had three first place votes
and five ties.
Texas Tech and Rice, the sixth
and seventh choices, garnered the
only other first place votes with
one each.
Texas Christian and Southern
Methodist were pegged as the
fourth and fifth choices with the
Horned Frogs getting a 436%
point total to SMU’s 389.
Baylor had the lowest predic
tion point total with 154%.
