Wilson not too pleased with defense
Ag offense awesome; ready for SMI
By RITCHIE PRIDDY
Sports Editor
Talk of Gary Kubiak’s feat and
the Ags’ 51-26 win over Rice still
filtered through the air during
coach Tom Wilson’s weekly press
conference, but the the attention
clearly centered around this
week’s A&M-SMU matchup.
Texas A&M entertains the
Mustangs Saturday in the Aggies’
most important game of the year.
Texas A&M whipped Rice 51-
26 Saturday to run its record to
5-2, 3-1 in the Southwest Confer
ence race. Meanwhile, SMU
dropped its first game of the year,
losing 9-7 to Texas in Dallas. The
Mustangs are 6-1 on the year and
3-1 in conference play.
SMU is on probation for re
cruiting violations and is not eligi-

ble for post-season play. That,
however, does not keep the game
from being important.
Coach Wilson praised his
team’s efforts in Saturday’s win
and said the Aggies are starting to
show themselves.
“Our offensive output was im
pressive,’’ Wilson said. “I’ve felt
that for several weeks that we
were close to exploding. ’
The Aggies rolled up 486 yards
in the effort, giving the Ags a 398.1
yard average per game. Kubiak is
the number 10 passer in the na
tion, averaging 134.3 yards a game
with his total of 1,143 yards and 10
touchdowns. He ranks 21st in total
offense, accounting for 1,372
yards and a game average of 196
yards.
Kubiak passed for six touch
downs and ran for another Satur
day and was rewarded for his per
formance by being named the
offensive player of the game by the
coaching staff.
Defensive end Jon van Sant was
recognized as the defensive player
of the game for his aggressive play,
while linebacker Greg Berry was
named the specialty teams’ player
of the game.
Although pleased with the win,
Wilson said his team needs to im
prove defensively.
“Our defense totally dominated
them (Rice) the first half, ” he said.
“But, the second-half breakdowns
were not very pleasing.’’
The Aggies took a 31-7 halftime
lead and virtually shut the Owls
down during the first half, yield
ing only 96 total yards. However,
the Owls finished the day with 379
total yards, only 18 on the ground.
“We haven’t played a game this
year in which our offense and de
fense played extremely well
said. “It should be very excitinga

defensive teams in the confei

game may play an important pat
in the outcome of the game.
"All coaches say it, but it’s true
the kicking game is vitally impor

together,” Wilson said. “This next
week would certainly be a good
week to do it.”
Wilson said that a victory over
the Mustangs Saturday would take
a total team effort and a defensive
showing similar to the one the Ags
had against Houston three weeks
ago.
Hardy missed an extrapointj
Saturday’s game (the
spinning on the tee, causing 1b
to shank it) and Wilson methinm
the sideline.
“In a game like that you
find something to get mi
Wilson said. “I’ve beenconcerai
with that part of our kicking ge
all year.”
The offenses will match up the
two best sets of backs in the con
ference. SMU runs the I-
formation and until last week, tail
backs Eric Dickerson and Craig
James split playing time at tail
back. Saturday, however, head
coach Ron Meyer used James at
fullback and Dickerson at tailback
against Texas, and has indicated
that the same combination will
play against the Ags.
“That throws in an added di
mension to the game,” Wilson
Wilson said a missed extrapoii
or field goal could possibly m«
disaster against any of the teat!
the Aggies will face the remainik
of the season and he wants to
sure every attempt is good.
Overall, Wilson said hew:
pleased with his team, sayingtli f
good things are beginning
happen.
“Going into the year we
we could peak at this time
season,’ ' Wilson said. “HopeM#
we ll be able to put it all
this weekend.”

Battalion Staff
In a cross country meet that was
little more than preparation, the
Texas A&M University women’s
cross country team finished fifth at
the Texas Invitational Meet.
As proof that meet times have
improved drastically, the time for
the fifth-place Aggies would have
easily won the meet two years ago.
“That sort of tells you how ev
erybody in the state is really im
proving on their times,” said
Aggie coach Bill Nix.
The relay meet had two one-
mile stretches, one mile and a half
stretch, one half mile stretch and a
final two-mile stretch.
“The last three girls really ran
well,” said the Aggie coach. “They
were exceptional and came close
to having the fastest times in their
divisions.”
The University ofTexas
meet followed closely by Abilea
Christian University, UT at
Paso and the University
Houston.
