Ags face ‘gut check’ with TCU
THE BATTALION Page 7
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1975
By DAVID WALKER
Staff Sports Writer
Coach Shelby Metcalf said in his
weekly press conference Wednes
day that his Aggies were going to get
a “real gut check in these last three
games.”
Intestinal fortitude check num
ber one comes up tomorrow night in
Ft. Worth at 7:30. Texas A&M and
TCU get together in a little game of
roundball that isn’t too little.
For the Aggies it’s a do or die sit
uation. They are tied for top spot in
the Southwest Conference with
Texas Tech and are followed closely
by the Arkansas Razorbacks who are
only one game behind in second. Af
ter this one only two games are left.
The Aggies can’t afford another loss
if they are to stay in title conten
tion.
A team like TCU could make up
for a rather dismal season by knock-
★★★
ing the Aggies out of the conference
race.
If the Ags do win their final three
games and Tech wins their final
three the two teams would meet in a

one game playoff (probably in Dal-,
las).
But as the old cliche goes, “we’ve
just got to take ’em one at a time.”
Never has this been more true in
the Aggie’s case.
The Aggies and Froggies got to
gether in College Station January 25
and the Aggies won 81-69. Since
then the Ags have won seven and
lost two. The Frogs have taken the
opposite road winning only two
while losing seven.
Fort Worth has been a hard place
for the Aggies to win. Since Shelby
Metcalf has been at A&M his teams
have won only five times at TCU
while losing six.
There will be no changes for the
Aggies who will start 5-10 senior
Mike Floyd at the point, 6-7 senior
John Thornton and 6-6 junior Sonny
Parker on the wings, 6-6 junior Bar
ry Davis at the high post and 6-9
senior Jerry Mercer at the low post,
two schools at College Station,
Sonny Parker was the leading Aggie
scorer with 15 points. Jerry Mercer
was the leading Ag rebounder with
10.
Game time is 7:30 and plenty of
tickets remain on sale at Daniel-
Meyer Coliseum. The game will be
broadcast locally on KTAM with
Mike Mistovitch doing the play-by-
play.

The elephants are dying one by
one but it’s first and goal on the
Army two-yard-line so the funeral
will just have to wait.
The seniors of the Corps of
Cadets, or “dead elephants ’ as they
are called, will be resurrected for
one last kick (whoop!) to play a foot
ball game for charity.
No matter what the final outcome
of the contest is, the Brazos Valley
Rehabilitation Center will be the
real winner. All proceeds from the
game will go to the Center. Nearly
$1500 have been raised for the
Center in the last three games
which has seen the Army win two
and the other ending up a scoreless
tie.
The Army and Navy-Marine
seniors will knock trunks with their
comrades in the Air Force units.
The Army team has been declared
the home team for Saturday’s grid
battle.
The Elephant Bowl, which has
become the official title for the
game, derives its name from the
A&M tradition of the Elephant
Walk where “seniors gather in front
of the Academic building and begin
to wander aimlessly about the cam
pus like old elephants about to die.
It symbolizes the fact that the
seniors will soon be graduating and
can no longer be part of the Twelfth
Man.
The Texas Aggie Band will enter
tain at halftime. The game will be
referred by members of the A&M
faculty and members of the Military
Science department will act as yell
leaders.
The teams will don football
equipment donated by the Athletic
Department with the aid of Head
Trainer Billy Pickard. All equip
ment is furnished expect for shoes.
Both teams are coached by senior
members of the varsity football
squad and will play under the pla
toon system.
The Air Force will be trying to zip
past the Army for the first time in
the Bowl’s four year history. Kickoff
for the match is set at 4:00 p.m.
