But in the early stages of the 1984 campaign there are four more sets of running backs with a good shot at making it. TCU’s Kenneth Davis and Tony Jeffery, the one-two rushers in the SWC after two games, are picking up yardage at a pace that would give them more than 3,500 yards over an 11-game season. They are well ahead of the pace set by SMU’s Eric Dickerson and Craig James in 1981, the year those two rushed for 2,575 yards. And should the Frog duo fall off the pace, SMU, Houston and Texas Teen all have two runners whose early numbers keep them in striking distance of 2,000 yards. The Mustangs’ Reggie Dupard and Jeff Atkins are gaining at a pace that would give them 2,585 yards over an 11-game schedule. Hous ton’s Sloan Hood and Raymond Tate would have 2,195 yards if they kept rushing at their current rate, and Texas Tech’s Timmy Smith and Freddie Wells need to accelerate only slightly from their current fig ures that would total 1,914 yards over the full schedule. The SWC had its first 2,000-yard tandems in 1977 when Texas’ Earl Campbell and Johnny “Ham” Jones TCU’s Tony Jeffery rushed for 2,233 yards and Texas A&M’s George Woodard and Curtis Dickey totaled 2,085. That was the year Campbell set the one-year rush ing record of 1,744 yards. SMU DALLAS — Southern Methodist football coach Bobby Collins Mon day said he is concerned that he might have trouble raising team mo rale to the level of TCU’s following the Frogs’ 42-10 triumph over Kan sas State. The Mustangs host the Frogs Sat urday night in Texas Stadium in the Southwest Conference opener for both teams. “I hope we don’t have a problem matching (attitude) with them,” Col lins said. “If we do, then we are going to be in trouble.” “It’s a big game for us; it’s our first conference game, and it’s against TCU, our crosstown rivals. I think our players will be ready and will be excited about playing the game,” he said. Split end Bobby Leach and tight end Greg Hubbard, who have missed two games this season, should be able to play Saturday, Col lins reported. Outside linebacker Darrin Mitch ell, who suffered a bruised collar bone on the opening kickoff against Louisville in the Mustangs’ season opener, will not be ready to play un til Oct. 13, when SMU takes on Bay lor, the team said. Houston HOUSTON — Houston Cougars fullback Sloan Hood sat out practice Monday because of a slight ham string pull, and strong safety Randy Thornton was out because of a stom ach virus, the team announced. Coach Bill Yeoman Monday had praise for Hood, who is the team leader with a rushing average of 106 yards in two games. “He’s really got a great chance to be good,” Yeoman said. “He is a gifted athlete, and he has good in stincts. He still needs a lot of work though.” Hood, a freshman, sat out Mon day’s rain-soaked practice with a slight hamstring pull. Thornton missed drills because of a virus. The Cougars open the Southwest Conference season Oct. 6 in Waco TCU’s Kenneth Davis against the Baylor Bears. 'X'cxsis TFcch LUBBOCK, Texas — Morale was low around the Texas Tech football team, coach Jerry Moore admitted Monday, but he said it was impor tant his squad forget about last Sat urday as fast as possible and concen trate on the opening of the Southwest Conference season. “The whole thing starts over for both us of (Tech and Baylor) on Sat urday,” Moore said. “It doesn’t mat ter if both teams are 2-0 or 0-2. It’s going to be a whole new season.” Tech fell to New Mexico last weekend, 29-24, after leading by 1 1 going into the final quarter. “There are really a lot of low spir its around our place because of the high expectations everyone Is about that game,” said Moore.‘‘Hi like I’ve been gutted. There is ; much hurt as I’ve seen in a lot long time, but the sooner we areal to concentrate on Baylor and foij l about New Mexico the better off will be.” Baylor WACO, Texas — Baylor coi; | Grant Teaff said Monday thattdij he was disappointed with his teat lack of offensive production thissr, son, he was did not feel theplav; quarterbacks Cody Carlson andlf Muecke should be singled out. “I want to make it complete clear that our two quarterbacks not lose the football game Oklahoma last Saturday),”^ Teaff. “They had a lot of help in ing inept. You shouldn’t point finger. “We didn’t play well enough fensively to give our team a chai to win. You can’t win against p people unless you can movethefe oall and in the first two games» | haven’t been able to.” : I Teaff said the only major linet change planned for Saturday nigli; meeting with Texas Tech would at weakside linebacker, where so| omore Ray Berry will replace sei John Breit. Breit suffered cartilage damage; his left knee against Oklahoma at; will undergo arthroscopic surge Tuesday.
