The name Bubba Bean was
etched solidly into the Texas A&M
record books on Saturday, Oct. 11,
1975 with 8:19 left showing on the
clock in the third quarter of the
Southwest Conference opener for
A&M against Texas Tech in Lub
bock.
Bean showed he was more than
just any ball-carrier in school history
with a superb 94-yard dash that
lifted him to the throne of all-time
A&M career rusher as well as bump
ing him up two places on the all-
time SWC list to the No. 8 spot, as
well as setting a record for the
longest scoring play from scrim
mage in the 81-year history of foot
ball at this University, (breath!)
He almost didn’t make it.
“Bujnoch cut oil the safety . Wher
1 saw all that open field for some
reason, 1 started laughing. I hyper
ventilated and when 1 got to the
end/.one, I almost passed out. If it
had been ten yards farther, I
wouldn t have made it, said Bean.
With his 180 yard, eight carry
and therefore 20-yards per carry ef
fort on Saturday, Bean now has

Bubba Bean makes the cut to begin 94- yard romp to the endzone.
2,469 career yards, 54 more than
previous leader Bob Smith who
compiled his record over three
years, 1949-51. Bean replaced
Smith as the No. 8 man on the SWC
list.
His long run also wiped out the
previous long-scoring record from
scrimmage also held by Bob Smith
who went 81 yards against Tech in
1949. The Ags went on to win that
game 26-7.
Bean wasn t one to talk of records,
though, T wish I could have broken
it at home. But I hadn’t given it
much thought. I felt I would get it
sooner or later. What was impor
tant was winning the game Bean,
said.
Bean also had a scoring run of 47
yards earlier in the game on the
same play, a pitehout on the right
side, with Bujnoch leading the
blocking duties with the right side
linemen.
There are some others still chas
ing the rushing king, also.
Halfback Skip Walker now has
1,665 yards and needs 72 more to
pass up Larry Stegent for the No. 3
spot behind Bean and Smith.
Bucky Sams with his 28-yard el-
fort at Tech moved past Jack Pardee
and Wendell Housley to take over
the No. 9 spot with 1,031 yards.
Richard Osborne took in another
pass and needs two more to pass
Bob Long for the career receptions
No. 2 spot. He needs 10 more yards
to pass Homer May for the No. 3
spot in all-time receiving yards.

Soccer team outdoes
scrappy Lamar, 4-3
Merdhad Farrokhnia scored two
goals to lead the Texas A&M Soccer
team to a narrow, shorthanded 4-3
win over scrappy Lamar. Lamar
scored first but was promptly tied
by Farrokhnia. Steve May er put the
Ags in the lead 2-1 after picking up a
ball the Cardinal goalie could not
handle.
Farrokhnia then started the sec
ond half by outclassing the Lamar
defense to put the score 3-1 in favor
of the Ags.
Right Wing and club president
Jim Davis was thrown out of the
game after a controversial call which
left the Lamar goalie injured. Be
fore recuperating from the loss and
playing a man short, the Ags found
themselves tied at 3-all.
Paul Oliver took the situation into
his own hands, pulling from defense
to the front to save the game for the
Ags with five minutes left.
The win leaves the Aggies with a
4-1 record this season, the best in
several years. This weekend they
will travel to Houston where they
take on League champs UH and
Rice. The Ags only loss so far this
season was to UH.
