Here are notes on Saturday’s Southwest Con
ference matchups:
ARKANSAS (5-0, 2-0 in SWC) at HOUSTON
(2-3-1, 1-1-1 in SWC), 11:35 a.m., CBS-TV —
Cougars have ended perfect seasons for Razor-
backs twice in last three years — 13-10 victory in
’79 and 20-17 victory in ’81 after Arkansas opened
with six straight triumphs both seasons. Four of
six previous SWC meetings have been decided by
a TD or less and usually with sad consequences for
the loser — Arkansas victory in ’76 cost UH out
right championship, UH victory in ’78 cost Arkan
sas title share and UH victory in ’79 cost Arkansas
outright title as teams were co-champs. Razor-
backs lead nation in scoring defense at 6.2 points
yielded per game after shutting out TCU and
allowing Texas Tech only three points. Billy Ray
Smith leads Arkansas defense as one of premier
linemen in nation, while Cougar offense getting
stronger each week with the return of QB Lionel
Wilson, hurt earlier in the season. Cougars stayed
with No. 4 SMU last week, losing 20-14 as Mus
tangs held ball last five minutes. Arkansas leads
SWC in both offense (404.4 yards a game) and
defense (236.4) and has allowed an average of
only 72.8 yards rushing per game. Cougars pace
SWC and fifth in nation in pass defense with yield
of 122.8 yards per game. Game claims four on
SWC’s top nine rushers — No. 5 Dallas Wiggins
(86 yards per game) and No. 6 Dwyane Love
(85.7) of UH, and No. 7 Darryl Bowles (76.6) and
No. 9 Jesse Clark (66.2) of Arkansas.
BAYLOR (2-3-1, 1-2-1 in SWC) at TCU (2-4,
1-2 in SWC), 2 p.m. — Both teams need to re
bound from losses last week, Baylor coming from
25 points behind Texas A&M to score 20 points in
last 25 minutes. Frogs dropped non-conference
game to Mississippi despite QB Reuben Jones
throwing for season-best 252 yards on 17 comple
tions. Six were to Stanley Washington, who’s just
18 yards shy of becoming the sixth player in SWC
history to field 2,000 yards in receptions. With six
more receptions (he has 114), Washington will
jump from ninth to sixth on the all-time reception
list. Baylor QB Mike Brannan listed as very doubt
ful, still nursing hamstring injury, and David
Mangrum scheduled for third start with Tom
Muecke listed second. Frogs have won two
straight home games this year; three straight
would be first time since 1971. Baylor fifth in
SWC rushing and boasts two of top 10 league
rushers in Alfred Anderson (third, 88.5) and
Allen Rice (eighth, 68.8). TCU’s Marcus Gilbert is
10th (55.3). Frogs’ passing history not evident this
year, as they throw just 20 times per game to
Baylor’s 25. Nearly half of the Bears’ 62 comple
tions have gone to Gerald McNeil, who has 26
receptions (third in SWC).
SMU (6-0, 3-0 in SWC) at TEXAS (3-1, 1-0 in
SWC), 2:50 p.m., ABC-TV — SMU risks longest
winning streak in nation (10 games) against last
team to defeat Mustangs. The last defeat for SMU
came last Oct. 24 as Texas won 9-7 on three Raul
Allegre field goals. That was also SMU’s only loss
in the last 17 games. SMU this week moved up to
fourth in both AP and UPI polls, while Texas
stands 15th in UPI and 19th in AP after first loss
of season to Oklahoma two weeks ago. Longhorn
defense held impressive SMU rushing attack to 78
yards in 1981, but Texas allowed 384 in losing to
the Sooners two weeks ago. Mustangs’ Eric Dick
erson Saturday became the first SWC rusher ever
to go over 1,000 yards this early in a season by
totaling a career-high 241 yards against Houston
for a season average of 166.8 yards a game. Dick
erson now ranks second in SWC career yardage
(3,834) and fellow tailback Craig James is fifth
with 3,321. Dickerson is second in national
rushing and James fourth in national punting
(46.1-yard average). Game matches three of
SWC’s top four rushers, with Texas’ Darryl Clark
ranked second this year at 95.7 yards per game
and James fourth at 86.2. SMU and UT rank
second and third, respectively, in both SWC
offense and defense, with their offenses at 390
and 383 yards a game and defenses at 260 and
291. Despite high-geared ground attack, Mus
tangs have scored six of last 10 touchdowns on
passes, while Texas is No. 2 in SWC pass defense
at 127.5 yards a game in allowing only two passing
touchdowns. Texas holds 37-20-4 all-time series
lead (36-20-4 in SWC play) and 19-10-2 Austin
advantage after winning 14 of last 15 games there.
