A&M Tied With Arkansas For Cellar
Dreaded Disease Kills Aggies, 20-1
(J
By BILL HENRY
Battalion Sports Editor
That df^aded disease that sucks
the life’s blood out of football
teams and renders them helpless
struck the Texas Aggies again
Saturday afternoon in Kyle Field.
The epidemic that paralyzed
A&M for the first seven weeks of
the season seemed to have been
cured the past two weeks, but as
with all cancerous growths, the
relief was short lived.
Yes, it was the foreseer of
doom, the Black Knight of defeat
—Miscuitis. The symptoms are
easily detected—loss of football—
but thene is no cure and the prog
nosis is the death of a winning
season.
Against Rice Saturday, the
deadly venom was not detected
until the deceased, A&M’s foot
ball team, had built up a 14-0
lead. The growth then took ef
fect, and after two fumbles and
two pass interceptions A&M was

pronounced dead on arrival at the
final gun, 20-14.
On a cold, blustery afternoon,
28,231 shivering fans watched as
the Aggies fell to their seventh
defeat of the season and to the
conference cellar with a 2-4 SWC
mark.
It began rather auspiciously
with the A&M offense moving the
football well. The Wishbone at
tack clicked like the smooth rush
ing machine it was designed to be.
Early in the second quarter,
A&M drove from its own 35-yard
line to the Owl goal in 12 plays
and consumed 5:33 on the clock.
From the 35 to the five, it was
strictly run and then it was a pass
from quarterback Don Dean to
freshman split end Richard Os
borne for the score. For Osborne,
it was his first scoring reception
ever and for Pat McDermott, who
kicked the extra point, it was his
100th career point here at Aggie-
land.
A little over a minute later,
freshman Carl Roaches fielded a
Rice punt at his own 16-yard line
and scampered 84 yards down the
right sideline for A&M’s second
score. It was a block by lineback
er Kent Finley that freed him at
the end, but it was his uncanny
ability that got him out of his
biggest danger at the 35-yard
line. For the tiny (5-9, 155)
sprinter, it was the third return
of the year.
Another minute later, freshman
linebacker Ed Simonini tipped a
Bruce Gadd pass and senior Gra
dy Hoermann picked off the er
rant aerial at the Rice 22-yard
line.
Being excited as most players
would be after making a great
interception, Hoermann flipped
the ball in the air. For his happi
ness, he was slapped with a 15-
yard penalty and the ball was
moved back to the 43-yard line
where the Aggies took over with
a first down and 25 yards to go.
A&M had to punt and Robert
Murski put the ball at the Rice
14-yard line with 2:23 left in the
half.
Five of six completed passes
later, Rice had itself its first
score of the afternoon with fresh
man Edwin Collins taking the
final 12-yard strike from Gadd.
It wasn’t the 12-yard comple
tions that caused the score, but
the 25 and 29 yarders to tight
end Gary Butler.
The half ended with A&M hold
ing a 14-7 lead.
It didn’t take Rice long to capi
talize on the momentum gained
from the first half scoring surge
that took but 1:06 to complete.
With 9:57 remaining on the
third quarter clock, Rice began
a drive at its own 9-yard line. Ten
plays, 91 yards and 3:59 later
Rice knotted the score at 14-14.
Again it was passes to the mas
sive Butler that enabled the score.
A&M was using Simonini to
cover the talented senior and the
experience lacked by A&M’s spec
tacular freshman was very much
in evidence. It was also the in
ability of the A&M defensive line
to apply pressure on Gadd, that
let the SWC’s leading passer wait
until the precise moment that
Butler got away from Simonini
and in front of the secondary to
zero the pass in between.
With the score tied, A&M got
an excellent chance to put an
other score on the board begin
ning a drive late in the third
quarter at the Rice 41-yard line.
Seven plays later with A&M
on the Rice 15-yard line, fresh
man running back Ronnie Hubby
was stripped of the football and
the opportunistic Owls took over
at the 11 with 13:22 left in the
final stanza.
Eleven plays later, the A&M
defense finally held at its own
27-yard line where cinch All-SWC
kicker Mark Williams added the
go-ahead margin 17-14 with 8:56
remaining.
With A&M still having a good
chance to pull ahead, Dean threw
into the waiting arms of Rice
safety Bruce Henley, who re
turned it to the A&M 22-yard
line.
Three plays later, Williams add
ed another field goal, making the
score 20-14 with 6:15 remaining.
On the next series, Dean again
hit Henley who returned it to the
A&M 41 with 4:44 left.
Eight plays later A&M’s de
fense again held, but Williams
missed his field goal altf!
from the 14-yard line will
left.
On the first play followint!
missed kick with A&Monitj,
20-yard line, Dean pitched
to halfback Bubba Bean, tm
hall wont to the ground as;
picked it up at the A&M2.j
line.

Against the rush, A&M 1
fense did a superb job all
only 120 yards on 45 playj,
through the air A&M

It was again an impotent]

CHICAGO ITP) — Ara Parseg
hian criticized Alabama’s decision
to go to the Cotton Bowl and
served notice to Southern Cal
and Nebraska that his Notre
Dame football team will not be
easy to beat.
“From everything I’ve read,
and by their own admission, Ala
bama took the easy way out,”
Parseghian said in Chicago Mon
day. “They were in the driver’s
seat being undefeated and their
decision dictated the structure of
the other bowls.”
Alabama, which could have
chosen to play defending national
champion Nebraska in the Orange
Bowl and possibly avenged last
season’s 38-6 loss to Nebraska,
decided to go to the Cotton Bowl
to face once-beaten Texas.
“I guess Alabama figures on
beating Auburn and Texas for
an undefeated season and then
hopes that Ohio State beats Mi
chigan and we beat Southern Cal
which would leave Alabama the
only undefeated team in the na
tion,” said Parseghian.
“Two years ago we were con
fronted with a similar decision,”
continued Ara. “We were unde
feated and had the choice. But
we took Texas because of its 30-
game winning streak.
“Really, I’m happy over Ala
bama’s decision because it gives
us a chance at Nebraska, but can
you think of the criticism we’d
face if we had made the same
kind of decision Alabama made?”
Bryant was not available for
a direct reply to Parseghian. But
in a speech to a Birmingham
quarterback club Monday he said
he told his seniors last week
that he would let them make the
final decision but, “I kind of hope j
you’ll let the old man pick this |
time.
“I pointed out that Texas al
ready had a good record and was |
making a strong finish. They;
agreed.
“Our aim was to get the team
that had the best chance of fin-1
ishing with no more than one de- I
feat. Of course, there was no way :
to find a team that had not lost. I
“We felt that by going to the !
Cotton Bowl we would be play- !
ing a major conference champion. |
“I haven’t done well against!
‘Darrell Royal’s team,” Bryant j
continued, “and I’d like to test!
that again. I’ve played him three
times and tied once and lost two.”

DALLAS ‘A 3 ) — San Francisco
Coach Dick Nolan said Monday
there was a 50-50 chance quarter
back John Brodie would be avail
able for action Thanksgiving Day
against the Dallas Cowboys.
Brodie, who hasn’t played in
five weeks because of a sprained
ankle, worked out with the 49ers
Monday but was limping.
The 49ers meet the Cowboys in
a nationally televised game which
is crucial to the National Foot
ball League playoff chances of
both clubs.
“I can’t say when Brodie will
be able to play,” Nolan said.
Steve Spurrier, Brodie’s backup
man, threw five touchdown pass
es Sunday as the 49ers whipped
Chicago 34-21. The 49ers flew
immediately to Dallas after the
game to prepare for the Cowboys.
Nolan said it will take time for
Brodie to get his timing down.
Spurrier was expected to start
against Dallas.
Nolan said Brodie will be acti
vated for the Dallas game.
