Wednesday, October 9, 1985/The Battalion/Page 11 Sports H:' Big plays should be the norm when A&M, UH tee it up The Texas A&M defense looks like falling dominoes as it pounces on this Texas Tech fumble. Tech split end Eddy Anderson (1) is left Photo by JOHN MAKEL Y wondering where the ball went as A&M linebacker Johnny Holland scoops it up. A&M hosts Houston Saturday at 2 p.m. in Kyle Field. By BRANDON BERRY Sports Writer Watch out. Hide the women and kids. The Cougars are coming to Kyle Field. Yep. One-and-three meets 3-1. The nation’s eighth best offense meets the eighth best defense in the Southwest Conference. Since there are nine teams in the SWC and 122 Division 1 teams in the nation, you figure out why A&M should be scared going into the Sat urday’s 2 p.m. showdown with Houston. A&M Coach Jackie Sherrill al ready has. “They’ve (Houston) made some mistakes, some mental mistakes, that have cost them some touchdowns,” Sherrill said Tuesday at his weekly news conference. “Defensively, I still feel that they have potentially the best defense in the conference. And offensively, no one has really stopped them yet. T hey make a lot of big plays.” So how dependent is UH’s offense on the big play? Four games into the season, the Cougars have run 377 offensive plays and have faced third down- and-less-than-three yards only three times. That’s once every 126 plays. That’s less than once per game. How to hack college. Yes, it is possible to get through school these days without being a propeller head. All you need is a computer that is not a propeller head, either. The Macintosh™ Take a program like Macintosh Pascal, for example. It lets you write programs with extraordinary ease.

This is just one example of how Macintosh helps students work smarter, quicker and more creatively. And the beauty of Macintosh is, you don’t have to (mow diddley about computers to use one. There’s only one thing you won’t be able to do with Macintosh. Get confused, intimidated and frustrated.

That’s a big play offense. “The difference between this year’s Houston team and the others we’ve faced in the past is (UH quar terback) Gerald Landry,” Sherrill said. “He has so much speed and quickness back there. Landry is a very, very good option quarterback.” Running the “quadruple option veer,” Bill Yeoman’s teams have won 156 games, four SWC champion ships with subsequent Cotton Bowl appearances and have compiled the 17th winningest record in college ■ football. And this year’s Coogs are no dif ferent. UH is again ranked among the nation’s leaders in total yardage (34th) and rushing yardage (12th). And they’ve done it without last sea son’s leading rusher, Raymond Fate, who was injured in the Coogs’ first game, but is expected back against the Aggies. “Against Baylor, they moved the ball, but they fell behind early when they got caught in two busted cover ages,” Sherrill said. “You take away the big plays against them and they have a lot more wins.” But if pigs could fly, we could shoot down breakfast in the morn ing.
