It would be a nor mal reflex action since they’ve played five straight road games. But, starting Saturday against SMU, A&M plays four of its final five games at Kyle f ield. A&M sold 22,000 tickets for the Rice game last week, most ever for a road in Houston. Tony Franklin has had great success kicking field goals against Rice, he was 2 for 4 as a frosh, includ ing an NCAA freshman record of 59 yards, he was five for five as a sophomore, which set a SWC rec ord and tied an NCAA mark. Last week he hit two for two, giving him 9 of 11 vs. the Owls. Franklin is a perfect 17 of 17 in extra points this year. A&M Coach Emory Bellard: “We did a lot of things that helped Rice. But, we won and that s what counts. We had many fine drives hut would stop ourselves. Rice played hard and deserves a lot of credit. ” Rice Coach Homer Rice: “I’m really proud of the effort of our kids. This is two weeks in a row that our young men did themselves, the university and our program proud.” Rice split end Dad Houser: “A&M has a fine sec ondary. They are a finesse secondary. They played man for man and I don’t see a lot of that. It was fun. Mike Williams (A&M cornerback) is a super athlete. He covered me like a blanket all night. I respect him for his ability and his conduct.” A&M tight end Russell Mikeska from Temple has caught four passes this year and three of them have been for touchdowns. He also grabbed a two-point conversion pass against Rice. QB David Walker has thrown 6 touchdown passes this year which equals his total previous output. He threw three as a soph and three again last year. FB George Woodard needs one more touchdown to tie Joel Hunt’s school record of 30 career TDs. The SWC mark is 49, by Bill Burnett of Arkansas (1968-70). Woodard also needs 65 yards rushing to become A&M’s No. 2 all time, runner. That would move him ahead of Boh Smith s 2,415 yards. Bubba Bean is the career leader with 2,846 yards. Curtis Dickey ran for 106 yards against Rice and now is No. 8 with 1,253 yards. He needs 212 to catch No. 7 John David Crow. Joe Jares of Sports Illustrated, doing a story on place-kickers, saw A&M for the third time Saturday night at Rice, he -was on hand when the Aggies played Texas Tech and Michigan. Jares talked with Texas’ Russell Erxleben in Dallas Friday night; with A&M’s Tony Franklin in Houston Saturday with Arkansas’ Steve Little in Fayetteville Sunil tBC,” coach bid them lave to com Usider it Houston vvoi (vith the Ivould be he ‘Secondly |he game (hanksgiv bean we wo |o prepare [hat that was morning and was hack home in California Sundiilcheduled, vas no reas [urther. “I have BC since oneerned tl Bellard n tatements, earned th night.
