DALLAS — Texas A&M's dyna-
Inite linebacking duo of Ed Simo-
nini and Garth Ten Napel are The
Associated Press co-defensive
players of the week in the South
west Conference and about the only
difference their coach can find in
them is that Ten Napel runs inter
ceptions hack better.
8 Melvin Robertson, the braintrust
lor collegiate football s No. 1 de
fense, said, “Ed and Garth played
about as good a game as Tve ever
seen two linebackers plav against
LSU."
Simonini made 11 tackles and
Ten Napel had 14. Each defender
had an interception and also sacked
the LSU quarterback for long losses
in a 39-8 slaughter.
The Aggies have allowed only 198
yards total offense in victories over
Mississippi and LSU.
Robertson said, “Garth ran his in
terception hack 24 yards which was
real good. Now, Ed just kind of fell
down with his like he was recover
ing a fumble. He said he did that
because he missed an interception
last year by try ing to run with the
ball before he caught it.
Simonini is a senior All-American
while the All-SWC Ten Napel was
The AP s lineman of the week once
in 1974. Ten Napel also is a senior.
Robertson said the brawny’ Ag
gies play a gambling style of defense

“It seems if you play'just a regular
containing defense the kids don’t
appear to he fired up, Robertson
said. “We do a lot of things that
gives a player a chance to make the
big play. Both Simonini and Ten
Napel trapped the quarterback on
linebacker blitzes.
“Ours is a big play defense,
Robertson said. “We gamble a good
bit, but it’s a calculated gamble. We
have all the receivers accounted
for.”
Robertson said one thing that
went almost unnoticed in the vic
tory over LSU was that All-
American cornerback Pat Thomas
only played three downs.
“Pat had a had sprained ankle and
we played Tony Blankenship who
had only been on the specialty
teams, Robertson said. “He did a
good job although he got one pass
caught over him.
Robertson added, “We have a lot
of fun down here in practice . . . it s
not loosey goosey because football is
a serious game. But we Ye got pride
and that builds success which builds
enthusiasm.
"Ole Ed and Garth play with an
awful lot of enthusiasm.
