The Aggies take off at nine o’clock tonight and will fly into one of
the most dreaded areas known to football-playing man. But the Aggies
should take less fear with them than most teams do now or Aggie
teams did in the past. This year, the first in many, they return as the
defending champions (so to speak) and, even better, they are picked
to win.
Now the chances of going into a game like that and getting blasted
(remember Alabama, remember Auburn are the cries) are normally
great. But the Aggies have already had their Waterloo and escaped
with a win, luckier than some others. Although it may not be of
particularly historical importance or even bear out over time, the fact
exists that last year the Ags were never beaten (or embarrassed) twice
in a row. And using logical deduction we must assume that this year’s
team will do likewise since they are at least as good a team as last
year’s.
Twice last year the Aggies attained a rather lofty but probably
fairly correct ranking of No. four in the nation, only to be upset at the
next game. Namely Kansas, and SMU. That number might therefore
be avoided at all costs, and luckily, they go into this matchup at No.
11.
Besides upsetting a very good team last year and shoving the “Year
of the Tigers down Cholly Mac’s throat the Ags came out of the game
with some added honors.
The entire Aggie offensive line was named Associated Press
player of the week for constructing the runways which allowed three
Aggie backs. Bean, Walker and Sams, to each gain over a hundred
yards.
Well, the chance is there again, Bean and Walker are back and
starting, though Sams will have to play second fiddle, at least tem
porarily, to Ronnie Hubby.
But again it will be the offensive line that everyone, especially
me, will be watching. The LSU defense is tough. They held Nebraska
to 10 points, of which seven came on a 34-yard drive and three on a
field goal after the Huskers recovered an LSU fumble on the four. It is
going to have to be a very 1 ucky night or the Aggie secondary will have
to have a field day for the Ags to run up the score. But my estimate is
that there will be little more scoring in the game than the two teams
did the previous week. My prediction of the score, 14-7.

The offensive line will have to have done a lot of shaping up after
last weekend. The coverage is needed especially on punts, where
blocking was poor. The kicking game is crucial to the cause in the
Tiger pit. There must also be holes opened if the idea is to go up the
middle as in last week s game. The last word is, there are no changes
offensively for the game. With the depth the Aggies have, somebody
must have done a good job to retain their starting position.

J hope it works. I still have the conviction that the potential is
there, somebody just forgot to crack the offensive egg last week, no
complaint here with the defense. If the mere shock of scoring only
seven points didn t wake some people up, then hopefully the press
reports and the drop in poll rankings did. Sometimes the old hobby
horse is just too high.
I look for the Ags to he seething when game time comes. They
can fumble all they want as long as they are honest fumbles and not
screwups. I would hope that the air route is a little heavier traveled
this time, lack of use hurt last week.
