Forty-two fouls were called in the
game, one of the sloppier games this
season (for detailed analysis of last
night’s referees, see this week’s Ath
letic Oatmeal).
In a department vitally important
to the Aggie style of play, the home
team was credited with 17 assists to
Texas’ eight. Godine, was responsi
ble for six of those, again leading the
team. Sonny P and Roberts each had
three.
In other SWC action, the Red
Raiders maintained their close pro
ximity to the Ags in the race with and
impressive win over Arkansas in
Lubbock. Impressive because Tech
was without the services of two star
ters: Rudy Liggins and Grady New
ton who were both hospitalized.
Guard Steve Dunn, who hasn’t
played nuch because of a broken
nose, had to take up some of the slack

in the stirring 86-78 victory.
TCU upset darkhorse Baylor
65-63 in Waco, ala Texas A&M’s win
over the Froggies in Ft. Worth
Saturday. The Frogs, however, had
to erase an 11-point halftime deficit
before playing super defense to gain
the win.
SMU smashed Rice 108-71 in Dal
las to stay on the Aggies’ trail and
simultaneously not spoiling the
Owls’ chances of becoming the first
winless SWC team in over a decade.
The Ags are at home Saturday
against the Bears to complete the
only two straight home games of the
SWC season. The Ags must then
gear up for a very tough two week
schedule. They travel to play SMU,
return for Tech, go to Hofheinz for
UH, then return for Arkansas before
jogging the home stretch against
TCU and Rice.
