guidelines^ i e Bears have probably had one
SupremeCi ie most frustrating seasons in
t abortion d ge football history. It’s not that
>rming abo; are the only team to ever lose
lent; that ilij straight games, because other
between dj | S have gone an entire season
hat it violatsBout a victory. The frustration
religion bejjn the fact that the Bears have
sbelieveoJ most of their games in the
•t of humajlilth quarter after leading most of
;ame.
e Bears worst defeat was a
46-110(1
n-point loss to SMU last Satur-
in Waco. They have lost five
is by a total of 21 points which
average of 4.2 points per game,
is why many coaches, includ-
iellard, are saying that Baylor is
)est0-5 team in the country,
id that is why Bellard is worried
it the Bears, who are way over-
for a victory.
fs impossible to believe that
team (Baylor) has lost five foot-
games,” Bellard said. “It wor-
me that they have come so close
ating so many people and that
are playing them this week,
are as good as the rest of the
is in the conference. ”
lylor comes to Kyle Field with
hopes that the Aggies will still
own after last week’s upset loss
to Houston. The Bears will also be
taking on an Aggie team riddled
with injuries.
“At the start of the season. Grant
(Teaft) said if they got a quarterback,
they could play well,” Bellard said.
“Steve Smith, Baylor’s quarterback,
is outstanding and they have played
well.”
Smith is one of the top passing
quarterbacks in the nation. Al
though Smith had a mistake-prone
second half which cost the Bears
some turnovers against SMU last
week, he is still Baylor’s starting
quarterback.
“Even though he (Smith) made
mistakes,” Teaff said, “he has im
proved each week. Steve is the
quarterback for Baylor University.”
"Baylor has the most physical of
fensive line we’ve faced so far, ” Bel
lard said. If Baylor is more physical
than Houston’s offensive line, the
Aggies could be in for a long day.
The Baylor defense has played
well all year, having one of its best
games against SMU. The Bears
shutdown the potent SMU passing
attack the entire first half in Waco
last week.
Linebacker Mike Singletary has
led the Bears’ defense most of the
season. “He’s one whale of a
linebacker,” Bellard said. “He loves
to play the game and he is physically
capable of playing well. ”
The Bears offensive backfield has
been crippled with the loss of Greg
Hawthorne who is out for the season
with a shoulder injury. The Bears
still have fullback Steve Howell who
rushed for 125 yards in three carries
against the Aggies last year. Tight
end Ronnie Lee is back and is a for
midable receiver. Two of Smith’s
main recievers will be Mike Fisher
and Bo Taylor.
This is no week to talk to Bellard
about injuries. He will be playing
musical running backs while trying
to find someone who is healthy
enough to play Saturday. Center
and halfback were two positions of
favorable depth for the Aggies at the
beginning of the season. The Hous
ton game has made a shambles of
both of those positions. Curtis
Dickey, Adger Armstrong and
Temple Aday were victims of the
Coogs while centers Ed Pustejovsky
and Don Wright will probably not
see action against the Bears.
The Aggies are not only physically
beat, their morale is low.
Speaking of the Houston game
Mike Mosley said, “We’ve got to
shake this one off by Wednesday so
we can start thinking about Baylor.”
What about Monday and Tues-
day?
“Well I know that doesn’t sound
too good,” Mosley said, “but this
has been a long weekend. That was
a hard game to get over.
“We’ve got to buckle down now,
take the games one week at a time
and win the rest of our games,” he
said. That is easier said than done in
the Southwest Conference.
The Baylor fans must not believe
in their Bears anymore, as Baylor
returned 1500 tickets to Texas A&M
for the Saturday game.
Another overflow crowd is ex
pected in Kyle Field Saturday when
the two teams meet for the 75th
time. The kickoff is at 1:30 p.m.
Rugby team busy
The Texas A&M women’s rugby
team will be busy this weekend as
three teams pay visits to Aggieland.
The Aggies will host the Houston
Boars Saturday at 10 a.m., the
Houston Hearts Saturday at 4:30
p.m. and traditional rival Austin
Sunday at 12:30 p.m. All games will
be played on the main drill field
across from the MSC. The Aggies
are 3-0 for the season.
