SWC Roundup
Bellard Says Ags Lack Emotion
EST SCF
LEOPA
M
“SKEII
“Emotionless” play was partly
responsible for A&M’s 14-10 loss
to Arkansas Saturday, said Aggie
head coach Emory Bellard.
“We played very methodically,
without much emotion,” said Bel
lard in his Tuesday press confer
ence. “We weren’t as up for the
game as was Arkansas and that
was the difference. This showed
defensively but we played the
same way offensively.”
In speaking of the final second
controversial pass play in the end-
zone that many Aggie supporters
saw as pass interference, Bellard
said “It was an incompleted pass.
That’s the way it’ll go down in
the record books and that’s how
we have to think about it.”
Bellard said Bucky Sams and
Alvin Bowers will continue to al
ternate at fullback although Sams
played the entire second quarter
against Arkansas and was the
team’s leading rusher.
“Both are good football players
and both will continue to play,”
he said. “Bowers has had a sore
leg which he re-injured against
Arkansas but he looked better in
practice Monday than he has in
the last two weeks.”
Bellard spent much of the press
conference discussing the 30 schol
arship rule on this year’s recruit
ing (see Kevin’s Korner, p. 12).
Bellard said he expects another
tough game this weekend when
SMU comes to Aggieland.
“SMU has got two tremendous
halfbacks,” he said. “There’s no
other way to describe them.
They’ve got a pair of good full
backs and Keith Bobo (SMU’s in
jured quarterback) may be ready
to play against us. If Bobo doesn’t
make it, Ricky Wesson is more
than capable of breaking a game
wide open and will probably play
even if Bobo starts.
“Their defense is big and
strong with excellent speed. It
will take one whale of a perform
ance to move the football on
them.”
The Aggies should be in good
physical shape against the Mus
tangs as they have avoided se
rious injury for the entire year.
Linebacker Garth Ten Napel is
suffering from a leg injury but
should be ready to play Saturday.
Defensive tackle Warren Trahan
is stronger after missing most of
the Arkansas game. Cornerback
Tim Gray was unable to work out
Monday due to an ankle injury
but is expected to start against
SMU. Defensive end Blake
Schwartz is working out but is
still a little rusty from his four-
week layoff due to a knee sprain.

SMU
DALLAS— Southern Methodist
football coach Dave Smith said
Tuesday his Mustangs will have
to stop Texas A&M’s outside
speed Saturday or his team could
absorb its third straight loss.
“A&M is a lot like we are,”
Smith said. “They’ve got good
outside speed and some talented
young people. They are well
coached and have been playing
good football.”
Smith said quarterback Keith
Bobo, who suffered a shoulder
separation against Rice, probab
ly won’t see action against the
Aggies.
Conference game at Fort Worth
and Carlen said of the TCU back-
field “They work good as a group.
“Offensively TCU is much bet
ter than last year. Their offensive
line is the same size as last year
— big — and their line is where
they overwhelmed us last year.
“Their kicking game is the best
in the conference and they are a
very veteran defensive team.
Their tackles, Tommy Van Wart
and Charlie Davis, are as good a
pair as there are in the league.
They have good linebackers in
Mike Hanna and Dede Terveen.”
Carlen said “They (TCU) al
ways get up for us. In two years,
they’ve scored 48 points and
we’ve scored twice. That shows
what they have done to us.”

Texas
AUSTIN—Three Texas Long
horns left the practice field with
slight injuries Tuesday but were
expected to be ready for Satur
day’s Southwest Conference foot
ball game against Baylor in Aus
tin.
Reserve quarterback Mike Pres
ley, a slightly pulled hamstring,
defensive tackle John Boecker, a
sprained ankle, and defensive end
Damian Alvarez, a shoulder in
jury, were sent to the locker-
room.
Texas Coach Darrell Royal said
he respected Baylor quarterback
Neal Jeffrey and the Bear pass
ing attack.
“Jeffrey is an excellent passer,”
Royal said. “His timing is so
good. Pass defense is like the
shutter of a camera. It opens up
and closes suddenly. Jeffrey and
his receivers anticipate so well
when the defense opens up. He
throws to a spot and the receiv
ers catch the ball well. They have
excellent pass protection.”
FORT WORTH — In the two
seasons Billy Tohill has been the
head coach at Texas Christian, the
Horned Frogs haven’t lost to Tex
as Tech.
Coach Bill Tohill said Tuesday
that should be an incentive to the
Red Raiders for this weekend’s
Southwest Conference game in
Fort Worth.
“After last year they’ll be after
us,” said Tohill. “This will be like
a bowl game to them. Our little
chillun’ had better button up their
bonnets because Coach Jim Car
len and his boys are going to come
in here with a mad on.”

WACO — Baylor’s Bears went
through a brief workout on the
Astroturf of chilly Baylor stadium
Tuesday in preparation for Texas.
The Bruins will be facing the
conference favorite Longhorns
with a winless Southwest Confer
ence football slate.
Bear mentor Grant Teaff prais
ed the effort put out by his squad
during the 90-minute workout, but
said he was disappointed with
Baylor’s 0-3 SWC record.
Baylor lost to TCU last Satur
day before a homecoming crowd
of 30,000 at Waco.
However, Teaff pointed to
bright spots in the game as quar
terback Neal Jeffrey threw for
three touchdowns and more than
300 yards.
Split end Charlie Dancer of
Mexia caught seven Jeffrey
passes for 173 yards in the game
and set a school record.
FAYETTEVILLE — Running
back Dickey Morton and wide
receiver Jack Et.inger missed
Tuesday’s Arkansas Razorback
practice session with knee in
juries.
Morton is expected to be ready
for Saturday’s game with Rice,
but Ettinger is a doubtful
starter.
Three other Razorbacks also
missed Tuesday’s cold, two-hour
contact session.
Morton has a minor knee
bruise carried over from Satur
day’s Texas A&M game. Ettin
ger has an infection which has
caused his knee to swell to most
twice normal size. The knee was
injured during Monday’s prac
tice session.
Tight end Doug Yoder, defen
sive tackle John Rhiddlehoover
and linebacker Billy Burns, all
were confined to their rooms
with mild cases of the flu. All
three should be ready Saturday.
Coach Frank Broyles said that
Tuesday probably was one of the
coldest days of practice for his
team this year. Temperatures
were in the 30s.
“We had to stay moving to
stay warm out there,’ Broyles
said. “I think it was the coolest
day we’ve had so far. It was not
as good a practice as I had
hoped for.”

HOUSTON — Coach Bill Yeo
man said Tuesday his 15th rank

they may need even better foot

“The weather could be an un
settling factor for us,” Yeoman
said of his Cougars, who are 7-1
and going into the game with
strong bowl hopes. “It could be

Colorado is vastly improved
from last season, Yeoman said,
pointing to the Rams’ 5-4 record.
They were 1-10 last season and
beaten 48-13 by the Cougars in
the Astrodome.
But Saturday’s game will be
played in frigid Colorado, a dras
tic change from the muggy and
warm Gulf Coast temperatures.
“It may cause some of our
swamp rats trouble,” Yeoman
joked. “We just hope we can get
our minds enough on our busi
ness.”

DALLAS — Texas fullback
Roosevelt Leaks opened up a 198-
yard lead on Arkansas’ Dickey
Morton in the Southwest Confer
ence football rushing race last
week with a record-smashing 342-
yard effort.
Leaks is averaging 163.7 yards
per game and has 1,146 yards for
th eseason. The burly junior full
back from Brenham is averaging
6.5 yards per carry.
Morton, a senior from Dallas,
has averaged 118.5 yards per
game—or 6.3 steps per snap.
Morton has career SWC yardage
of 2,967 steps. He should become
the second player in SWC history
to pass 3,000 yards when he goes
against Rice in Houston Satur
day. Morton is just 264 yards
away from equaling the career
record of Texas’ Chris Gilbert.
Texas grabbed the total offense
and rushing offense from South
ern Methodist last week with 609
yards against the Mustangs.
A&M is the leading SWC club
on defense, allowing just 257.8
yards per contest.
