CHRISTLIEB Battalion Stall Lou Holtz came out on top in more ways than one Saturday when his Arkansas Razorbacks de bated the Texas Aggies 10-7 in hie Field. Not only did his team enhance its Cotton Bowl chances with the win, but the Arkansas toachproved lie’s the leading pac er in the Southwest Conference. Holtz, who leaves his mark on the sideline turf of most oppo nents football fields, literally paced his team to the narrow win over the Aggies. Stopping only for each snap of the hall, Holtz easily outpaced Texas A&M coach Tom Wilson, whose dejection after the disappearance of the Aggies’ Cot ton Bowl chances was so great that bespoke to no one after the game. On the other hand, Holtz had many compliments to voice about bis twin's performance, as well as many complaints concerning events which took place during the game. One of Holtz’ grie vances involved an action which took place late in the game, and as aresult, he showed that he can run onto the field just as well as he can pace along the sideline. The Razorbacks had the ball with 0:57 left in the game when an injury timeout was taken to attend to Aggie linebacker Mike Little’s recurring pinched nerve. The Aggies had no time outs remain ing, which meant that the clock should have started once Little was taken off the field. But it didn’t, and that’s what Holtz was upset about when he ran on the field to argue. The Razorbacks were given a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for Holtz’ action. “1 know the clock is not sup posed to stay stopped after an in jury time out when the team is out of timeouts,’’ Holtz fumed. “It wasn’t fair to our football team for me not to ask for an explanation. I didn’t go out for anything else but I wanted an explanation. It was unfair to our football team, be cause if we’d known that we would have run the football (to run out the clock).” However, the fifth-year Razor- back coach said his team played well, considering that Arkansas’ last two conference games have been decided by a total of five points. “I’m really proud of our football team,” Holtz said. “We didn’t have any turnovers, and I don’t know when we’ve had so many players miss practice. We didn’t make any mistakes (no turnovers) ... Once we got the lead, we play ed conservative. Holtz said the Razorbacks didn’t anticipate being in the top division of the Southwest Confer ence this late in the season, but the unpredictability of this year’s league has given his team a lift. “Each week, someone falls on a hand grenade for us. Nobody’s chaufFered us along the way. We’ve made the road more rocky than it should have been,” Holtz said. Standout Razorhack defensive end Billy Ray Smith said he and his teammates only worry about each week’s opponent, not about the bowl situation. “We re just going to keep win- Delaney s 193 yards paces Chiefs past hapless Oilers ning and let the polls and bowls take care of themselves,” Smith said. “We want to go to the Cotton Bowl, but we ll be happy to go to any bowl that chooses us.” Arkansas treshman quarterback Brad Taylor, who played his least effective game since becoming the Razorbacks’ starter three weeks ago, completed 11 of 24 passes for 145 yards. Taylor took Arkansas 91 yards in 18 plays and 7:22 to put the Razorbacks ahead 10-7 with 7:57 left in the game. Taylor said that the experience and guidance of Tom Jones, the Arkansas starter until being injured a few weeks ago, has helped him through the troubled times of a freshman quar terback. “I’m still making a lot of mis takes and he’s correcting me, helping me out all the time,” Taylor said. “I guess one reason I’m not feeling much pressure is because I’ve got a coach like Tom. I ask him questions all the time, and he’s always got an answer for me, and that really helps my confi dence a lot.” Jones said he’s tried to help Taylor along the way, and he hopes that his own sprained knee has improved enough for him to play, possibly Saturday when the Razorbacks host league-leading Southern Methodist University. “I think my injury is progres sively getting better, and maybe next weekend I can be at full speed,” Jones said. “I try to en courage and help him (Taylor) out as best as I can, but it’s hard to correct any of his bad mistakes, because there aren’t any.” The Razorbacks’ win put a dam per on the performance of Texas A&M quarterback Gary Kubiak, who completed 19 of 21 passes for 233 yards and one touchdown. The touchdown, a seven-yard pass in the right corner of the endzone from Kubiak to flanker Don Jones came with 10:05 left in the third quarter. For his performance Kubiak was named offensive player of the game by ABC’s Keith Jackson and Ara Parseghian. “That s not much consolation. You’re never satisfied when you lose, but it’s good for the offensive line — for the whole team,” he said. Arkansas defensive end Smith was named the defensive player of the game. “Billy Ray ate our lunch,” Kubiak said. “He’s a super player and a super person.” Smith spent most of the after noon in the A&M backfield and several times blind-sided Kubiak. When the Aggies had a chance late in the game to score. Smith hit Kubiak, forcing a fumble which the Hogs recovered. Texas A&M cornerback Greg Williams, who nearly intercepted Taylor during the Razorbacks’ game-winning drive, said the Aggies will have to bounce hack after the loss. “We controlled their offense the entire game,” Williams said. “This (loss) can work out either positive or negative for us. The way Coach Wilson will handle it, I think it will work out positively down the line.” Williams had no excuses for missing the near-interception, which would have stopped the Razorbacks at their own 23-yard line and given the Aggies a chance to add to a 7-3 lead. “I thought I had a good break on the ball, but I just couldn’t get a handle on it,” he said. “There’s no telling what something like that would have meant, especially if I could have run it back.” Representatives from several bowls were present, including the Tangerine, Gator, Peach, Liber ty, Independence, Bluebonnet and Sun. Bowl bids will be announced after Saturday’s ac tion, so the Aggies must win big against Texas Christian University in Fort Worth to have a chance at gaining a berth. United Press International KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs are getting the irnsiinuni .out of the minimum. Diminutive rookie running kick Joe Delaney rushed for a dub-record 193 yards, scored one touchdown and set up another to fclp his Chiefs snap a two-game losing streak with a 23-10 victory Sunday over the Houtson Oilers. The second-round draft pick nutol Northwest Louisiana erased Ik 14-year-old club record of 192 yards set by Mike Garrett in a 1967 game against the New York )c!s. The 193 rushing yards stand as tlic best single-game rushing effort in the NFL this season. De laney carried the ball 29 times in raising his season rushing total to fflyards and also caught a pass for seven more yards. joe is the minimum size for a full-time NFL running back, said Kansas City Coach Marv Levy of liiso-K), 184-pound dynamo. “I'm always afraid to look at the final stats to see how many times we used him. 1 sec 29’ (carries) and he got to shake my head. We really don’t want to run him that much. “But when Joe runs with it we dick. The offense moves and we certainly don’t want to disrupt the rhythm of our offense. Delaney, who has only been a starter for the last six weeks, out shone Earl Campbell to move into second place in the AFC in rushing behind the Houston full- hack. Campbell was held to 99 yards by the Chiefs — the fifth straight week he has been under 100—hut he now has 1,099 yards for the season. “Delaney is only a rookie?” queried Campbell, shaking his head. “Give him his due: he’s one of the best young backs I ve ever seen.” “He’s like Walter Payton if he’s like anybody in this league, said Kansas City offensive backfield coach Bobby Boss of his meal tick et. “Joe has that one trait that all great hacks have — the accelera tion. He s a quickstepper: when he takes his second step he’s in full stride. For a little guy he really explodes into a hole. All of a sud den he s there and then by the defensive player. Delaney rushed for 11 of Kansas City’s 19 total first downs to help the Chiefs raise their record to 7-4 and keep them one game back of the AFC West leading Denver Broncos. “Joe Delaney is not just another running back, said Kansas City’s All-Pro defensive end Art Still. “He’s becoming one of the very best running backs. He gets better with time. Each week he performs a little better than his last time out.” Nick Lowery rounded out the Kansas City scoring with field goals of 37, 42 and 38 yards to boost his AFC-leading point total to 89. He kicked his first field goal in the second quarter and added his final two in the fourth period to put the game away after Houston had drawn to within 17-10 on a 50-yard touchdown pass from Ken Stabler to Ken Burrough. The Kansas City defense forced five turnovers with Harris inter cepting two passes and recovering a fumble. Nose tackle Ken Krem- er also recorded two sacks to help send the Oilers down to their fourth defeat in the last five games. Houston is now 5-6 this season. SCUBA DIVERS!
