They’re (the Aggies) not that many points better Than we are.” However, the Aggies were bet ter on the ground (183 yards to 73) and in the air (185 yards to 179) than the Longhorns.

Bengal offense comes alive during 45-27win over Oilers The ’Horns Hunter (54 yards), Simmons (37 yards) and freshman fullback Darron Norris (40 yards) were the only rushers in orange to gain positive yardage. Associated Press CINCINNATI — Fullback Larry Meanwhile, Murray completed 10 of 17 passes for the Aggies, three of which were caught for touchdowns. Sophomore Craig Stump, who replaced Murray in the fourth quarter, completed his only pass attempt — a 39-yarder to Nelson that set up the Ags’ final touchdown. “Definitely, we were the second-best team out there,” Ak ers conceded. “A&M played well and took advantage of their opportunities. They are an excel lent team — such an excellent team they didn’t need our help what with the crowd and the way they were playing. I really am dis appointed that we did not per form as well as we can. “Our Bluebonnet (Bowl) vote was unanimous and we’ll be ready to play,” Akers concluded. “And we’ll be looking forward to seeing A&M next year.” Sherrill, meanwhile, seemed content to. look at the game one more time — and from a different perspective. “This was just an outstanding win, in every way, for our players and our coaches,” Sherrill con cluded. “And I’d have to say that, up to this point in the develop ment of the program we’re build ing here, it’s been my biggest win as head coach here at A&M.” Kinnebrew powered for three first half touchdowns and quarterback Boomer Esiason passed for three more scores as a resurrected Cincin- nati Bengals offense overwhelmed the Houston Oilers, 45-27, Sunday. The Bengals, kept out of the end zone in their last two National Foot ball League games, stunned the Oil ers with touchdowns on their first lour possessions for a 28-0 lead en route to their highest point total of the season. Kinnebrew climaxed impressive drives with touchdown runs of seven, one and three yards. Esiason, shaking off a bruised hip, hooked up with running back James Brooks on a 57- yard touchdown pass play for Cincin nati’s other first-half score. Esiason put the game out of reach with a pair of third-quarter touch down tosses. The Bengals, 6-7, ended a two- game losing streak and atoned for a 44-27 drubbing in Houston earlier this season. They also stayed in con tention in the AFC Central Division, while leaving the 5-8 Oilers alone in last place. The Bengals, who managed just four field goals in their two previous games, came out gunning. They took the opening kickoff and drove 69 yards in just six plays, sparked by a 33-yard pass from Esiason to wide receiver Cris Collinsworth. Kinneb rew bulled his way the last seven yards for the score. Esiason linked up with Collins worth on a 24-yard pass to highlight a 61-yard march on Cincinnati’s next possession, with Kinnebrew scoring from the 1-yard line. Esiason burned a Houston blitz for the Bengals’ third touchdown, lotting Other Sunday NFL scores: (Home team in capitals) Cleveland 35 N.Y.
