Kubiak did it once and Andre Ware,
the Heisman Trophy winner, has
done it several times. Ware has the
SWC record of seven which he threw
against Temple last season.
“Romo was extremely sharp,” said
SMU coach Forrest Gregg. “He did a
great job of reading Vanderbilt’s de
fenses.”
Romo hit nine different receivers
and finished with 31 of 41 comple
tions for 342 yards. Three of the
passes went to Michael Bowen.
“Everything worked,” Romo said.

Mountains near here in the winter of
1873-74. Only Packer emerged alive,
claiming that two of the men died of
natural causes. He said one of the
gold seekers cannibalized the others
and then charged at Packer with a
hatchet. Packer killed the man in
self-defense.
A group of experts who excavated
the site of the cannibalism last sum
mer concluded that Packer mur
dered the men and ate his victims.
Smith learned of his uncanny re
semblance to Packer earlier this year
when a co-worker pointed out a pho
tograph of Packer in a book on Colo
rado ghost towns and mining camps.
“He said, ‘You know, there’s a guy
in the book that looks just like you.’ I
said, ‘You must be crazy. There ain’t
nobody that looks like me,” Smith
recalled.
After looking at the photograph,
Smith said, “This guy is my twin.”
Now, he is trying to learn every
thing he can about Packer.
“Tve been trying to do a family
tree backwards to find out if I might
possibly be related.” he said.
