Conference teams prepare
for tough football weekend
COLLEGE STATION, Tx. (AP)
— Texas A&M Coach Emory Bel-
lard Tuesday tried to put to rest any
Southwest Conference title talk
concerning his eighth-ranked Ag-
gies.
“We’ve only played three
games,” Bellard said. “We have a
good opportunity, but we’ve got
four tough games to go, starting
with Arkansas Saturday.
“Arkansas definitely will be ready
to play,” Bellard said. “They are a
good outfit with good ability, and
I’m sure they will play extremely
well. Their defense has played ex
tremely well except in those cases
where they have had four or five
players hurt. They are big and quick
with a lot of speed in the secondary.
It will be a tough old battle to get the
ball in the end zone.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) —
Coach Frank Broyles said Arkansas
Razorback freshman Jerry Eckwood
missed practice Tuesday and may
be out the remainder of the season
because of a weightlifting accident.
Broyles said the highly-touted
Brinkley running back definitely
would miss Saturday’s Texas A&M
game.
Broyles did not say when the ac
cident occurred.
Broyles said most of Tuesday’s
workout was spent working on the
rushing offense and defense against
the rush.
“Texas A&M has a phenominal
running game and their defense
held Baylor to only two first downs
rushing last week,” Broyles said.
The coach said the Razorbacks
had a good practice Tuesday and
that he was pleased with the indi
vidual performances of John Rhid-
dlehooyer, Hal McAfee and Johnnie
Meadors.

The Aggies now have sole possession of the conference
lead. The last time the Ags were undefeated through three
conference games was in 1966 when the Ags heat Tech 35-14,
TCU 35-7 and Baylor 17-13 before succumbing to Arkansas
34-0. In their SWC championship year of 1967 the Ags lost
their first game of the season to SMU and lost three more
before winning six in a row and then beating Alabama in the
Cotton Bowl.
The 20-0 win over Baylor last week was the Ags third
shutout this year the other being a 24-0 win over Clemson and
a 17-0 decision over TCU. The Ags just barely lost another
when Tommy Duniven scored for Tech in the fourth quarter.
The three blanks by A&M equal the SWC total for last year and
this year’s total of five shutouts equals the total for the last two
seasons.
Eighteen games still remain this year. But the record book is
still far away. The last team to have three shutouts in a season
was Tech in 1971. Arkansas blanked 12 teams in 24 games
between 1964 and 1966. But the goose egg prize goes to the
Aggies of 1918-20 who checked in this 18 straight zeroes. The
games included 60-0 win over Camp Travis, a 77-0 win over
Sam Houston and a 110-0 win over Daniel Baker. The scoring
totals for the 18 game streak was 561-0. That included an
undefeated and unscored upon 1919 season. In 1920 the Ags
were unscored upon until the last game when Texas won 7-3.
The Ags also played LSU to a 0-0 tie. The Ags were also
unbeaten and unscored upon in 1917. Through four seasons
and 33 games during the 1917 through 1920 span the Ags won
30, lost two and tied one and had 29 shutouts.
There are a lot of omens to consider when watching the
weekend games. Five teams are still in the running for the
conference race this year, the Ags of course. Tech, Baylor,
SMU and Texas each with one loss each. Six times before SMU
and Texas have entered their game with one loss apiece and
Texas leads those games 3-2-1. This will be the eighth time
Tech has played Rice with only one loss and has yet to fall to the
Owls in such a matchup. The Bears have met TCU 19 times
with only one loss and have lost 12 of those meetings, won six
and tied once. The Bears lost nine straight of those meetings
eliminating them from the race all nine years until finally
winning one from the Frogs in 1972.
Two years ago the Bears won over TCU 42-9 hut lost last
year 34-28. In 1971 Texas beat SMU 22-18 on two disputed
goalline calls and won 17-9 when the Mustangs fumbled. They
trailed 14-0 at half last year before rallying to a 42-14 decision.
The Ags lead the conference in total defense and rushing
defense averaging 210.4 and 126.3 yards per game, respec
tively. The Ags still own the low yield in each category with
their performance against TCU. The Ags pass defense ranks
third behind Rice and Tech. The Farmers are third in total and
rushing offense with 366.9 and 288.6 yards per game, respec
tively. They are behind Texas and SMU in both categories.
And as might be expected the Ags are way behind, fifth, in pass
offense despite David Walker’s masterful performance against
TCU. Bubba Bean leads the conference in rushing with 94.3
yards per game. Mark Stanley still leads the conference in
punting with 37 punts averaging 43.2 yards per game.
Carl Roaches had an infinite rushing average after the
Baylor game. He rushed 56 yards on zero carries. How? He
scooped up Bean’s fumble after a ten yard run and raced for a
TD. Someone had to get credit for the carry so it was Bean who
was intended to go the yardage.

AUSTIN, Tex. (AP) — Texas
Coach Darrell Royal says he is let
ting quarterback Marty Akins call
his own. plays.
“It’s nothing but left and right
anyway,” Royal said in response to a
question at the Longhorn Club.
“We ran the same play 43 times
against Rice. I hope we run it 43
times Saturday against SMU.”
He said running the game this
way when it is working may be dull
football to some people but it’s not
dull to him.
WACO, Tex. (AP) — Tailback
Steve Beaird returned to practice
Wednesday after sitting out the first
two days of workouts with strained
knee and ankle hurt in the game
with Texas A&M last week.
The 5-7, 196-pounder who leads
the Bears in scoring, rushing and
pass receiving was limited because
of soreness, but was able to run.
Coach Grant Teaff said that his
status for this week’s TCU game in
Fort Worth is still doubtful.
FORT WORTH, Tex. (AP) —
Texas Christian head coach Jim
Shofner announced Wednesday
that Dennis McGehee, a junior
from Pearsall, will start Saturday at
offensive halfback against Baylor.
TCU trainers also said halfback
Kent Waldrep, who suffered a
broken neck in last Saturday’s game
against Alabama, is reported in
“more improved” condition in a
Birmingham, Ala. hospital.
