Texas A&M didn’t discover any
thing new or exciting about itself
during Saturday’s 31-17 victory over
Northeast Louisiana at Kyle Field.
No no-name running backs
romped for 500 yards, and Craig
Stump and Kevin Murray still own
exclusive rights to the “quarterback
controversy.”
The Aggies played as everyone
expected, despite the distractions of
cash payments and denials by a
quarterback.
But Saturday’s game was more
than satisfying to A&M Head Coach
Jackie Sherrill because of what the
Aggies did not do.
“Going into this game I felt that if
we didn’t make a lot of mistakes we
would be alright,” Sherrill said. “We
did a good job of holding onto the
football and got to the point where
our offense was doing some good
things out there.”
The offense also did a good job of
putting the Kevin Murray situation,
and an opponent many took lightly,
behind them.
“This was a very difficult week for
us,” Sherrill said. “Monday night we
had a very so-so practice. We weren’t
playing Northeast Louisiana as
much as we were playing ourselves.
“This game was a big test for our
football team.”
Like critics said Hiroshima was
supposed to be a “big test” for the
nuclear bomb.
The Aggies outweighed the Divi
sion 1-AA Indians by 30 to 40
pounds per man on the line of
scrimmage and possessed the supe
rior depth expected of a Division 1
team.
The Aggies were 21-point favor
ites in most national pre-game bet
ting lines, and A&M held an 8-0 all-
time record against teams from the
Southland Conference.
Doug Harvey’s national sports col
umn picked the game as an honora
ble mention “crummy game of the
week.”
But by the time the score at half
time read 14-14, most of the 46,1 12

This stereo con let you follow him from
one side of Boston to the other.
Seeing live performances makes hearing
the music more emotional. Everything moves.
The music. The musicians. You.
No home stereo can reproduce this
presence. But Boston Acoustics can move you
a lot closer. The Boston A60 is a small speaker
that's remarkable in defining the sound each
performer makes in the place he makes it in.
And in Bruce's case he comes from
so many places that that's saying something.
Particularly for a speaker in the Boston A60's
price range.
That's why we built this music system
around Boston A60's. Just so you can get great
rock without blowing your roll.
