the defense could Have held the
Gobbler offense on third down situ
ations, then Texas A&M would have
defeated Virginia Tech by a greater
score than 27-6.
“I thought we played good de
fense except on third down situa
tions,” coach Emory Bellard said.
“We played too loose in these situa
tions and they came up with the first
downs.
Tech converted seven out of se
venteen third down situations, and
had 342 offensive yards. Turnovers
was the only faction of the game
which kept the Gobblers out of the
Aggie endzone.
Tech running back Roscoe Goles
may not have reached the Ag
endzone, but the little halfback did
something no back has done against
A&M since 1974. He rushed for
over 100 yards.
“My goal was 200, Coles said. “I
could have done it too, if I had got
ten to carry the ball a few more
times.”
Coles 120 yards rushing was
good, but Curtis Dickey did better.
The sophomore from Bryan carried
the ball 17 times and gained 144
yards.

“I owe it all to my line,” Dickey
said. “I love them all.”
The Aggie offense had another
good day, but missed on some op
portunities that would have put the
game out of reach early.
“We sometimes just couldn’t
connect when we needed to, ” quar
terback David Walker said. “But
basically our offense was sound to
day. We read everything their de
fense used, and they were a little
slow adjusting to our offensive for
mations.
“The offensive line really came off
the ball today. They opened up
some hig holes for George and Cur
tis to run through.
Woodard was held to just 82
yards. The Gobbler defense, led by
Rick Razanno, keyed on the big man
on every play.
“They defensed me pretty good,
Woodard said. “They had three
people keying on me the whole
game. They really impressed me
with their defense. ”
A very impressive goal line stand
was made by the Gobblers just be
fore the half. On fourth and one,
Woodard carried the ball, but was
stopped just short of the goal line. A
slow exchange from Walker may
have hurt Woodard s chances of
scoring.
“My one little gut, couldn’t match
their five big guts,” Woodard said.
“They played me strong, and
knocked me down. That Razzano
met me a few times in the hole to
day. He can really hit you hard.”
The Ags face hard hitting Texas
Tech this weekend in Lubbock.
A&M’s defensive play will have to
improve. Bellard’s Bunch has been
sluggish at times. It appeared A6cM
was looking ahead to the Texas Tech
contest throughout the Virginia
Tech encounter.
“We were looking to the Texas

Baker from Shreveport, David
Moore from Corpus, and Julian
Hine from southwestern Louisiana
are the returning lettermen.
All of the men this season are
Barker’s own recruits, and he says it
should be a quality team. A6cM has
not been ranked in several years,
but Barker refuses to be discour
aged. “A team is ranked by what
they did the year before,” Barker
explained. “There’s definitely hope
for the future.”
“Due to good recruits and better
facilities, everybody’s a lot more
enthusiastic this year. Moss said.
“Last year, there were certain
matches that we just expected to
lose. But if we play really well,
we’ve got the kind of team that
could be ranked in the future.
A6cM will participate in four
tournaments this fall. The first one
was this weekend in Midland. “The
top teams will be there, Barker
said. “It’s going to be tough, but I
think we re ready.”
