SWC keeps bowls up in air
By MARY RUSSO

I Welcome to the “Guess Where
Second IfMou’re Going’’ game featuring the
re Miami (Southwest Conference. Possible
Housloi(rizes include the Peach Bowl, the
jberty Bowl, the Gator Bowl and,
[Ccourse, the Cotton Bowl.
Some people are guessing there
e35 possibilities of where the top
(ligible SWC teams could be
jeaded. Those eligible teams could
iclude the Longhorns, the Raid-
jrs, the Bears and the Aggies.
IfA&M beats Rice and Texas, and
aylor beats Tech and S M U; then
&M would be pickin cotton, Texas
I'ould be skinnin gators, Tech
ould be pinchin peaches and

A&M and Texas also have the Gator
Bowl bid to fall back on and Baylor
has received inquiries from the Lib
erty Bowl.
What would be best? The possi
bility of all four teams going to a
Bowl.
According to SWC rulings a
school can receive no more than
then that leaves more for the A&M
athletic budget. Don’t forget if the
team goes to the bowl, the over-300
man Aggie Band also has to go as
part of the bowl contract.
The Bowl games, with all the up
sets that this week had, left the al
ready settled bowls, like the Rose
- w w
Bowk, the Fiesta Bowl, the Sun
Bowl, the Magnolia Bowl and the
Sugar Bowl, holding teams that
could turn-out to be losers.
The wait for the bowls could be
ended Nov. 29 or late the afternoon
of Nov. 30. A&M is hoping that pos
sible upsets come their way.

Ok, if you think that’s good, how
bout A&M beating Rice and losing
Texas; Baylor losing to Tech and
eating SMU and Rice, with Tech
[eating Arkansas. That would leave
iaylor pickin cotton, Texas skinnin
;ators, Tech pinchin peaches and
&M holdin an empty bag.
A little simpler proposition would
e if A&M beats Rice and loses to
exas; Baylor loses to Tech and
MU and Tech beats Arkansas,
ech would be pickin cotton, Texas
ould be skinnin gators leaving no
ne apparently pinchin peaches and
&M holding an empty bag.
The fact is, if the Ags lose two
ames they’ll be watching everyone
Iseplay bowl games. If A&M loses
inly to Texas, then it 11 be the Gator
lowl lor the Ags.
Tech has a firm offer from the
each Bowl and Texas and A&M
ave strong Cotton Bowl bids.
