Sports Editor
AUSTIN — University of Texas cen
ter Alan Champagne slowly walked off
the field Thursday night, helmet in hand,
with a completely emotionless express
ion on his face.
He had just seen Texas A&M’s Aaron
Wallace streak by tackle Charles Sea-
phus to sack quarterback Mark Murdock
on fourth down, giving the Aggies the
ball with 40 seconds remaining in the
game and clinching a 28-24 A&M win.
The fifth-year senior had seen his
Longhorns lose to the Aggies for the fifth
time. And the way it happened must
have made it all the more depressing.
A few minutes later a jubilant Dana
Batiste saw a familiar sports writer,
flashed a big smile, and said, “Piece of
cake.”
It was anything but.
And after the game. Batiste admitted
it was a little nerve-racking toward the
end.
“They had me worried,” he said.
After the first half of the game. Batiste
probably would never have thought he
would be saying that at the end. After
all, the Longhorns were shellacked for
30 minutes with hardly a break. They
were lucky to be within three touch
downs.
Having earned only 98 yards of of
fense — only 8 in the first quarter — it
would have seemed inconceivable that
UT could not only close the 28-7 gap,
but have two chances in the waning mo
ments for a go-ahead touchdown.
But such was the case.
Texas had driven to the A&M 34 with
3:20 remaining, looking to go ahead for
the first time in the game.
But third-string quarterback Donovan
Forbes — inserted as an extra running
threat on third and 2 — pitched the ball
to nobody, and Batiste covered it for the
Aggies. The play was intended to go to
Eric Metcalf, but the back had fallen
down.
UT Head Coach David McWilliams
said, “Eric slipped and Donovan just
didn’t see him. I’m not sure there was
going to be much there for Erie anyway,
but at least there wouldn’t have been the
fumble.” y
UT got another chance with 1:37 left

and got as k as second and 1 at the
Texas 33. But a pass off Metcalf’s hands
and a sack by Alex Morris made it fourth
and 7. Wallace’s sack sealed it for the
Aggies.
Murdock said, “This kind of sums up
the season. It’s just been too little too
late. We fought back, but we didn’t
win.”
The Longhorns ended the season at 4-
7, the worst record since 1956. A&M
climbed to 7-4 with Thursday’s game
against the University of Alabama re
maining.
Six Aggie turnovers — four in the sec
ond half — cost A&M, as UT got three
of its four scores on drives starting inside
the A&M 30.
But Darren Lewis made up for it with
a career-high 212 yards rushing, includ
ing 102 in the first quarter, for his ninth
straight 100-yard performance.
Lewis now has 1,564 yards on the sea
son and needs 181 Thursday to break the
Southwest Conference mark held by
Heisman Trophy-winner Earl Campbell
of Texas.
Metcalf, a preseason Heisman candi
date, rushed for only 52 yards on 22 car
ries. He also caught three passes for 17
yards.
Early it looked like the Aggies were
headed to a blowout like the first two
games of the streak, instead of a nip-and-
tuck, hard-fought win like the last two.
Wallace blocked a field goal attempt
that would have given UT its first points
with 12:52 remaining in the second quar
ter, and John Boper took it 48 yards for a
touchdown. Instead of being within a
touchdown of the Aggies, UT found it
self down 21-0.
Even without starting quarterback
Bucky Richardson, who had left the
game in the first quarter after re-injuring
his knee, the Aggies moved the ball with
little difficulty in the first half.
A&M had 287 total yards in the half,
including an amazing 138-63 advantage
in passing yardage.
Chris Osgood took the Aggies 64
yards for another touchdown when UT
was unable to answer Roper’s score. A
pass to Rod Harris for 25 yards gave
A&M the ball at the UT 8, and Osgood
took it in himself on an option the next
play.
The big “0” of a smoke ring that came
from the Aggie howitzer and floated
across Memorial Stadium looked like a
pretty big omen.
But the Aggie fortunes started to turn
the next series of downs. Osgood fum
bled the snap, giving the Longhorns the
ball at the Aggie 17.
Murdock capitalized on the turnover
— the first of six on the day for A&M —
with a TD pass to Kerry Cash to break
the UT ice with 2:05 left in the half.
Osgood, who went 5-for-8 passing for
88 yards in the first half, fell apart after
the break. He completed four of his five
passes, but three were to Texas players.
The first interception went to Mark
Berry and gave Texas the ball at the
A&M 18. Murdock hit a wide-open Ste
phen Clark over the middle for the score.
Willie Mack Garza intercepted a pass
the next series, and the Aggies lost the
ball on downs the next time they got it.
Neither time could the Longhorns capi
talize.
A&M Head Coach Jackie Sherrill w
livid during and after the failed four
down try.
Darren Lewis was ruled short of a 1
down on a third-and-three attempt, a
officials ruled Osgood didn’t make the
first down either on his sneak attempt.
Replays seemed to indicate both mark
ings were too short.
Texas started with the 15-yard un
sportsmanlike conduct penalty on Sher
rill and moved to the A&M 20, but Mur
dock threw an interception to Mickey
Washington at the 1.
The Texas fans came to the game pre
pared to harass A&M for its recent scan
dal over alleged “hush money” payoffs
sent by overnight mail from Sherrill to
former player George Smith. Some signs
read, “Aggies + Hush Money = Death
Penalty,” and, “Federal Express: When
the hush money absolutely, positively
has to be there overnight.”
Batiste said it didn’t bother him even
when the team was pelted by Federal Ex
press boxes.
“I was going to take one for a souve-
nier,” he said, “but really it has nothing
to do with Texas A&M.”
