Christlieb Sports Editor Billy Brewer calls Texas A&M quarterback Gary Kubiak a “trigger man.” Jackie Sherrill calls Louisiana Tech quarterback Matt Dunigan a Doug Flutie-type with a strong arm. Descriptions aside, the two players have one common char acteristic: they’re both fun damentally sound quarterbacks with exceptional skills. Brewer and his team remem ber Kubiak’s 7-of-14, 245-yard performance of last season when the two teams met in Kyle Field. Likewise, the Aggies recall clearly Dunigan’s 19 comple tions in 38 attempts for 263 yards. The two quarterbacks and their teammates meet again in Kyle Field for a 1982 rematch Saturday at 6 p.m. And if early- season numbers are any indica tion of their passing prowess, this year’s version of the series may be a repeat performance. During his weekly press con ference Monday in Cain Hall, Sherrill compared Dunigan to Flutie, the Boston College quar terback who passed for 346 yards and three touchdowns in the Aggies’ season-opening loss Sept. 4. Through two Louisiana Tech victories this season, the 5-11, 181-pound senior has com pleted 23 of 38 passes for 382 yards and three touchdowns. In the Bulldogs’ 49-12 victory over Eastern Michigan, Dunigan was 11 for 13 for 205 yards and two touchdowns. Kubiak has connected on 45 of 79 passes for 493 yards and four touchdowns, a 247-yard av erage. He has thrown two inter ceptions. “Dunigan has thrown the ball very well,” Sherrill said. “Flutie Jeff Fuller named Aggies’ defensive player of week and Dunigan are about the same. They both have a strong arm, and Dunigan has started for three years.” Brewer, in his third year coaching at Louisiana Tech, said Kubiak was the key to the Aggies’ season. “Everything starts with the trigger man,” he said, “and with A&M, that’s their quarterback — Kubiak. “A&M has quality people — the more that come, the bigger they get. They’ve got good skill folks, and they’re an experi enced football team with a lot of talent.” Aggie tailback Johnny Hec tor, injured in the third quarter of the UT-Arlington game, was named offensive player of the week by the coaching staff. Hec tor rushed for 92 yards to give him 144 in two games, but he will be out for two or three weeks after separating his left shoulder. Other players recognized for their performances against the Movin’ Mavs were offensive lineman Bryan Dausin, defen- Offensive lineman Bryan Dausin tops in UTA game sive tackle Fred Caldwell, strong safety Billy Cannon, and special teams members David Hardy and Burnis Simon. Sherrill said the Aggie de fense, which has allowed an av erage of 413 yards during the first two games, played with in tensity and emotion against the Movin’ Mavs. But, he said: “We probably played our first-team defense too long.” Sherrill credited running backs Thomas Sanders and Mike Marshall for their efforts in reserve roles. Marshall, a senior, rushed for 48 yards and caught two passes for 14 yards, and Sanders carried eight times for 42 yards. Fullback Earnest Jackson, who suffered detached knee ligaments against Boston Col lege, should be out of his cast by the end of this week or the start of next week, Sherrill said. Freshman George Smith should start again at the fullback slot and Sanders will probably open at tailback. Sherrill said both Jackson and i Hector should return to action no later than the Texas A&M- Houston game Oct. 9. Hardy, who kicked four field goals against UT-Arlington, also received praise from Sherrill. “Hardy played extremely well,” he said. “I was very im pressed with him. He has a great leg and I think he’ll do great things for us. Under the right conditions, he can kick the 65- and 68-yarder.” Sherrill said the Aggies will use three down linemen on de fense against Louisiana Tech, with Keith Guthrie, Fred Cald well and Ray Childress starting on the defensive front. “When you face teams that pass as much as our opponents have and will Saturday night,” he said, “you’ve got to keep fresh people in there rushing the pas ser. We’ll have three tackles, but it’ll still be a four-man line.” Sherrill said the move of Jeff Fuller to the weak-side lineback er slot and Billy Cannon to strong safety bolstered the de fensive unit. Fuller had 14 tack les, including 12 unassisted, and Cannon had seven tackles. “We’re trying to get an oppor tunity to work with some things, and with the week off, I think we did the right things with Fuller and Cannon,” Sherrill said. “I think that’ll help our game tremendously. “I was encouraged with our defensive team. Looking at the films, we saw that they were around the football a lot.” The offensive line, led by Dausin, has improved since the Boston College game, Sherrill said. “If we protect Gary (Kubiak) as well as we protected him Saturday night, he’ll be able to do a lot of things,” he said.
