LUBBOCK (AP) — It started and
nded with a bang and included a
fifty coaching scenario, but Texas
Tech’s 23-21 Southwest Conference
lecision over Texas was hardly a
york of art.
More lively than lovely was this
irst meeting Saturday between
xinghorn coach Fred Akers and his
brmer assistant, rookie Lech coach
)avid McWilliams.
“Football at its finest,” quipped a
iress box observer after the Red
(aiders blew two scoring opportuni-
ies, tossed three interceptions in 13
ninutes and still led by 14-7 at half-
ime.
The Longhorns, committed four
urnovers of their own, then struck
iack with two fourth-quarter touch-
owns off the arm of quarterback
ret Stafford and raised a Hallow-
en spectre of a winning Jeff Ward
ield goal.
This time the Raider defense shut
own the final Texas drive at mid-
ield, thanks in part to Tech line-
acker Brad Hastings, who spent
fliuch of the wet, foggy afternoon
^Wrecking the Longhorn offense.
1 College football’s smallest player
8-5-3,130-pound Tyrone Thurman
' of Midland Lee — returned a Texas
punt 96 yards for a touchdown, a
Raider record and the second long
est in SWC history.
“When I first caught it, I didn’t
know which way to run,” said Thur
man, a sophomore. “I knew if I
didn’t get anything I’d get griped
out when I got to the sideline.”
Longhorn safety-cornerback Ste
phen Braggs picked off three Tech
passes in the second quarter, but
Texas turned only one into points,
using 35 yards in Tech penalties to
do that.
Tech’s Scott Segrist nailed field
goals of 24, 38 and 28 yards as the
Raiders turned their 14-7 halftime
edge into a 23-7 cushion.
“I wanted to kick against Ward
and beat him,” said Segrist. “That’s
what I was wishing for, for my field
goal to be the winning points.”
Stafford nearly spoiled the Raider
party, running 20 yards for one
Texas touchdown before passing 28
and 19 yards for the fourth quarter
scores.
The victory enhanced the 5-3
Raiders’ bowl hopes while the Long
horns’ 3-4 slate is their worst in 20
years. With 2-2 records, neither
team looms as a SWC title con
tender.
Aggies glad
to get rest
after big win
Associated Press
Defending Southwest Conference
football champion Texas A&M is off
next weekend and the Aggies are
more than ready to give their cliff
hanging act a rest.
“The open spot is a big welcome,”
said A&M Coach Jackie Sherrill.
“Our players are spent mentally and
physically.” •
A&M came from 11 points behind
to clip SMU 39-35 on Saturday to re
main unbeaten at 5-0 in league play.
In other games on Saturday,
Texas Tech defeated Texas in Lub
bock 23-21 as David McWilliams
beat his former boss, Fred Akers;
Texas Christian broke a 14-game
SWC losing streak by bouncing
Houston 30-14; and Arkansas
crushed Rice 45-14 to remain alive
in the league chase with just one loss.
TCU junior halfback Tony Jeff
ery, the SWC’s leading rusher, suf
fered a separated clavicle in the first
quarter of the Horned Frog victory.
“Tony may be through for the
year,” TCU Coach Jim Wacker said.
A&M has a week off to get ready
for its road trip to Arkansas. The
Razorbacks could have two losses be
fore A&M gets there because Arkan
sas have to play Baylor at noon this
Saturday in Waco on homecoming.
Baylor had the past weekend off.
In other SWC games on Saturday,
Houston is at Texas, Texas Tech is
at TCU and SMU is at Notre Dame.
Sherrill said Murray is getting into
Vinny Testaverde’s class.
“Everybody talks about Testa-
verde at Miami but Kevin has had a
great season,” Sherrill said.
SMU Coach Bobby Collins said
Murray has never been better.
“It’s hard to describe what Murray
means to that team,” Collins said.
“He’s so strong he can throw the ball
with people hanging on him. You
could confuse him with your de
fenses a year ago. It’s hard to do that
now.”
Tech’s victory fueled rumors that
McWilliams might go to Texas if Ak
ers is fired at the end of the season.
“The whole thing has been awk
ward,” said McWilliams, who was
Texas’ defensive coordinator last
season. “There are enough distrac
tions normally, but this has really
made it tough. The easiest way to
eliminate rumors is to just not talk
about them.”
The Raiders gave McWilliams the
game ball.
