Cotton Bowl host to be decided?
United Press International
Bill Yeoman said it with as
straight a face as possible.
“I don’t know who is saying this
game is for the Cotton Bowl,”
Yeoman said. “I think some people
might take violent exception to
that.”
But if Yeoman’s Cougars should
beat the Texas Longhorns next
Saturday all they would have to do is
defeat either Rice or Texas Tech to
win a spot in the Cotton Bowl.
And if Texas is the winner the
Longhorns would have to capture
just two of their last thee games
A&M-UT game moved
for national television
United Press International
AUSTIN — The University of
Texas announced Tuesday that the
date of the Longhorns game with
Texas A&M would be changed in
order for the contest to be nationally
televised.
The Longhorns and Aggies were
originally scheduled to play on
Saturday, Dec. 2 with a 2 p.m. kic
koff. But the game will now be
played on Friday night, Dec. 1,
kicking off at 8 p.m. from Memorial
Stadium.
Texas, ranked sixth and owning a
4-0 Southwest Conference record
and a 5-1 season record, will meet
the eighth-ranked Houston Cougars
Saturday. The winner of that game
will likely earn a trip to the Cotton
Bowl New Year’s Day.
Texas A&M has little hope for a
conference title, but with a current
6-2 record (3-2 in the SWC) will
probably be making a bowl trip this
season. The Aggies have an open
date before facing Arkansas in Little
Rock and hosting TCU.
After Houston, the Longhorns
play at TCU and Baylor before host
ing Texas A&M.
Texas A&M’s bonfire will still be
held on Nov. 30.

against TCU, Baylor and Texas
A&M to make it to Dallas on New
Year’s Day.
The Texas-Houston game, bring
ing together the only two teams un
beaten in Southwest Conference
play, will carry all the drama of a
post-season affair. But unlike post
season games, this one will be
played on somebody’s home field —
and that field is Texas’.
“Both teams play on the same
field,” Yeoman said. “It doesn’t
make any difference where we
play”
“I am glad Bill feels that way,”
said Texas Coach Fred Akes. “I
think you have to have more confi
dence when you play in your own
surroundings.
know what the score would have
been if he wasn’t. Houston is as
good as any team we have played
(and TCU has played second-ranked
Penn State this year).
“It seems that anytime our
youngsters play a game of any mag
nitude they either fumble the open
ing kickoff or the opening snap and
go into a state of shock.”
Texas Tech running back James
Hadnot took over the league lead in
rushing during Tech’s 27-9 win over
Baylor and Dockery, whose Red
Raiders have been one of the sur
prise teams in the country, was jus
tifiably pleased.
“By no stretch of the imagination
is your home the only place you can
play quality football. But at home
everything is more familiar and you
don’t break your routine. There
probably is too much emphasis on
the home field thing, but if given a
choice, I think anyone would rather
play at home.”
Akers said Randy McEachern
would start at quarterback in the
Saturday game.
“We were ready to play after hav
ing an open date and Baylor was not
quite ready after having seven hard
games in a row,” said Dockery.
“That was the best game our de
fense has played all year. We were
gang tackling and we were coming
up with the big plays.”
This week Baylor must face Ar
kansas and Bears Coach Grant Teaff
said turnovers would be the key.
Elsewhere around the conference
Monday SMU Coach Ron Meyer
said quarterback Mike Ford would
start against Rice despite a ham
string pull, Texas Tech Coach Rex
Dockery said his team played its
best game of the year in defeating
Baylor and TCU Coach F.A. Dry
pondered his team’s 63-6 loss to
Houston.
“Thank goodness Bill Yeoman is a
friend of mine,” said Dry. “I don’t
“We have to eliminate the turn
overs we have had in the past few
weeks,” said Teaff, whose team lost
the ball eight times against TCU two
weeks ago and six times against
Tech. “We will also have to play
great defense and be extremely
fired up.
“Arkansas has played well in both
of their losses. The teams that they
lost to (Texas and Houston) both
played flawless football.”
Texas A&M has an open date this
weekend but will travel to Little
Rock to face the Razorbacks next
week.

HOUSTON —- Rice coach Kay
Alborn says “it’s asinine for Arkan
sas Coach Lou Holtz to complain
that Southwest Conference game of
ficials are mostly from Texas.
“I don’t give a darn where the of
ficials are from — Texas, Arkansas
or Louisiana,” Alborn said. “I don’t
believe there’s an official in our
league that makes a call just because
we’re from Rice, Texas, Arkansas or
A&M.
“To me it’s asinine to drag that
stuff out in the newspapers. I think
it casts a bad reflection on every guy
that wears a striped shirt. I know

I ’m a rookie but I don’t give
