Dennis Nutt made things a
little tougher than Arkansas
would have cared for, but the
Razorbacks are still just where
they figure to be for quite some
time in the Southwest Confer
ence race — unbeaten.
Even though they were on
the road last Saturday, the na
tion’s 19th ranked team was not
expected to have any problems.
Yet Arkansas went into the final
minute of their contest with
things still in doubt.
Arkansas ran afoul of Nutt,
the TCU sharpshooter who likes
to take out a grudge on the
Razorbacks since he is from Lit
tle Rock and was never offered a
scholarship by his home-state
school.
But the favorite survived with
Arkansas now owning a 4-0 re
cord within the league. The
Razorbacks do not play the first
of their two scheduled games
with Houston until Feb. 25.
Nutt scored 32 points against
Arkansas in what eventually be-
came a 70-62 Razorbacks’
triumph in Fort Worth, the
third highest point total pro
duced against the Hogs since
Eddie Sutton began coaching
the team in the 1975-76 season.
Elsewhere Saturday, the SMU
Mustangs shook off the dis
appointment of one-point losses
to both Houston and Arkansas
to clobber Baylor, 89-70, and the
Rice Owls further added to the
woes of the Texas Longhorns,
63-49.
It was the second straight win
for Rice, which had nipped
TCU at the buzzer in Fort Worth
earlier in the week.

DALLAS — A streak of 14
straight points fueled by guard
Brad Davis early in the second
half Sunday broke open the
game and sent the Dallas Maver
icks cruising to their third
straight victory, a 126-107 deci
sion over the Denver Nuggets.
It was the sixth win in eight
games for the Mavericks, who
handed the Nuggets their ninth
consecutive road loss.
The Mavericks placed six
players in double figures and
mauled Denver on the back-
boards, 60-35.
Mark Aguirre paced Dallas
with 25 while Rolando Black
man added 21, Davis and Pat
Cummings 16 each. Dale Ellis 15
and Kurt Nimphius 10. Aguirre
scored 23 of his points in the first
