"It was a building block game for us even though we lost.” A&M really didn’t know if they could play at the same level as Al abama until halftime, Holland said. “Our players have a more posi tive attitude now. We know we can compete against anybody,” he said. “Last year, the guys got used to winning. Now, we won’t accept Jo- Ising,” he said. Offensively, A&M quarterback Kevin Murray has been very ac curate and he’s learned the of fense better, Holland said. Running back Keith Woodside is also doing well as he is devel oping more confidence in his running ability, he said. Defensively, A&M has as much speed as it did last year, but has a little more strength, he said. Holland weighs 227 pounds, five more than last year, but the added weight comes from build ing his strength over the summer, See Holland, page 13 Photo by John Makely Texas A&M linebacker Johnny Holland (No. 11) hopes to be in the face of a lot of opposing quarterbacks again this year. Holland, who accounted for 150 tackles in ’85, was named a first-team All-Amer ica and will be a significant member of this year’s defense.

Ag tailback Woodside anxious to return home, add to offensive attack Photo by Tom Ownbey A&M’s Keith Woodside, who will return home to Louisiana for the season opener with LSU, cuts upfield during practice Wednesday. By Ken Sury Sports Editor Texas A&M running back Keith Woodside knows where he belongs in the Aggies’ season opener at Loui siana State University Saturday. His place could be in the endzone like he was in the Cotton Bowl — twice. And it will feel somewhat like be ing home, as Woodside grew up about 1 Vi hours away from Tiger Stadium and Baton Rouge in Vida- lia, La. But his place definitely is on the field, lining up behind quarterback Kevin Murray and being part of A&M’s balanced offensive attack. “It’s very suitable for me,” Wood- side said of the A&M offense. “(An thony) Toney and (Roger) Vick were the workhorses last year, but the coaches have shown a lot of confi dence in me. And that just makes me want to work that much harder.” Woodside worked hard in Jan uary’s Cotton Bowl as he touched the ball six times for 120 yards and scored on a 22-yard run and 9-yard pass play in the Aggies’ win. Last season, Woodside carried the ball 47 times at a 7.5 yards per carry clip. In addition to being the team’s third leading rusher with 357 yards, he also was the third leading receiver with 27 receptions for 281 yards. But this season, Woodside said he believes he and Vick’s contributions to the team will fit like pieces in a puzzle. “We complement each other fan tastically,” Woodside said. “Vick is just a great back. Vick can hammer you inside, hammer you outside, he can catch, block — he can do every thing. “I’ll be trying to use my speed to run wide and get outside. So we complement each other well.” Woodside, who said he’s been to a couple of LSU games when he was younger, is excited about getting to play before a home crowd. “For myself, personally, it’s gonna be great to go back,” he said. “I haven’t played in Louisiana since my senior year in high school.” But what about facing that experi enced Tiger defense, especially All- America Michael Brooks? “Brooks is just like an outstanding running back,” Woodside said. “He’s gonna make his presence felt some time during the game.. But (playing the LSU defense) will let us know where we stand as an offensive unit. It’s a great way to test us right away.” And even having LSU’s famed mascot, Mike the Bengal tiger, posi tioned in a cage outside the A&M locker room doesn’t worry him. “He’ll just be roaring,” Woodside said.
