Monday, October 22,1990 Page 11 Coogs’ Klingler sets six NCAA records DALLAS (AP) — Ninety-five to 21 it wasn’t, but David Klingler still set six NCAA records in Houston’s 44-17 romp over Southern Method ist. Klingler completed 48 of 76 passes For 461 yards and five touch downs, three going to Manny Haz ard, as the No. 9 Cougars ran their winning streak to 10 games, longest among major-col lege teams. Houston coach John Jenkins said he wasn’t disap pointed his team fell short of its 1,000-yard per formance of last year, when Heis- man Trophy win ner Andre Ware quarterbacked a 95-21 thumping of an SMU team coming off two years of NCAA-im posed inactivity. “Whether we win by one point or 200-0 doesn’t really matter to me. All that matters is that we win the game,” Jenkins said. “We played very well today, especially in the first quarter” when Houston led 20-0. “Then the SMU defense kind of stiffened. But we were able to make the adjustments. ... We won the game and got better fundamentally. That is a sign of a good team.” Jenkins’ 6-0 start is the best ever by a first-time, first-year head coach in the Southwest Conference. The Cougars are 5-0 in the SWC. SMU is 1-5 and 0-3. SMU coach Forrest Gregg said he told his players he was proud of their effort. “It’s a little unusual to come in af ter a 44-17 loss and say that, but I am. I’m very proud of what they did today,” Gregg said. “When you con sider that Klingler threw more asses today than any other game in istory and we gave them six turn overs, it could have been much worse.” Klingler said: “SMU did a good job of stopping us some in the game. They are really improved over last year. We had a lot of dropped passes, but you have to give SMU credit, because they really played well.” Hazard agreed. “We were just glad to come out with a victory. We didn’t want to let this one get away from us. We worked hard in praedee all week and did not take SMU lightly.” Klingler, the nation’s total offense leader, broke the records of 45 com pletions, set in 1982 by Northwest ern’s Sandy Schwab against Michi gan, and 73 attempts, set in 1989 by North Carolina State’s Shane Mont gomery against Duke. Klingler Dallas. Houston. Continued from page 9 perfect pass.” The game-winning catch came only 1:33 after Steve Christie’s 32- yard field goal appeared to thwart the Cowboys effort to overcome a 10-point halftime deficit and win in their first-ever appearance at Tampa Stadium. Issiac Holt returned one of his two interceptions of Vinny Testa- verde 64 yards for a touchdown, and Aikman’s ability to remain calm un der pressure on the last drive helped the Cowboys remain one of eight teams that have never lost to the Bucs in a regular season or playoff game. Aikman, who completed 13 of 29 passes for 159 yards, threw 14 yards to Irvin and 18 yards to Jay Novacek before his 20-yard run gave Dallas a first down at the 28 with 31 seconds ' to go. After a timeout, Irvin fan past cornerback Rodney Rice to the left corner of the end zone, where he made his TD catch just beyond the reach of safety Mark Robinson. Sev eral Cowboys joined him in a cele bration that drew a penalty. “This team has gone through some difficult times and we’re trying to fight through it,” said Dallas coach Jimmy Johnson, who watched his team generate only 100 yards to tal offense in a 20-3 loss to the Phoe nix Cardinals last week. “We had a very disappointing game a week ago,” Johnson added. Continued from page 9 learns their system,” said Warren Moon, who completed 23 of 37 passes for 202 yards and one touch down. “This was a scratch-and-claw win and not very pretty. We just had to take what the defense gave us.” “I had a lot of fun out there. We were geared up,” said Oilers de fensive end Sean Jones, who had two of the sacks of Walsh. “It’s one of those things that comes and goes in cycles. But as long as I’m confident I’m getting the job done and the line is putting constant pressure on, I’m happy.” Lorenzo White accounted for Houston’s touchdowns, one on a run and the other on a pass from Moon. The Oilers (4-3) spotted the Saints a 3-0 lead before reeling off 20 straight points. The loss snapped the (2-4) Saints’ NFL record-tying streak of 13 consecutive victories against American Conference teams, elating back to 1986. Walsh, acquired last month from the Dallas Cowboys for three high draft choices, completed 22 of 39 passes for 292 yards and one touch down, a 31-yarder to Hoby Brenner with 12:53 remaining in the game. White, whose fumble at the 1-yard line on the opening drive of the game cost the Oilers an almost cer tain touchdown, went in from the 1 with 8:53 left in the third quarter to put Houston ahead 17-3. Continued from page 9 are a longshot.” Baylor coach Grant Teaff an nounced that the Bears were back in the race with the tie. “A tie at this point doesn’t elimi nate you,” Teaff said. “For those who wondered out loud and in the media last week, we are in the race. You can legitimately count us in now.” Teaff had a near physical ex change after the game with a Baylor fan who felt the Bears sat on the ball in their last possession. The unidentified fan grabbed Teaff by the shirt after the game and told him he should have gone for the touchdown. “I had no idea what the guy’s deal was,” Teaff said. Baylor drove to the A&M 38 late in the game but didn’t use its final time out as the clock ran down. “All I know is our kids just fin ished one of the most courageous performances any team of mine has ever put on the field,” Teaff said. “We’re disappointed to come away with a tie but we’re not elimi- Aggies Continued from nated from the conference race.

Houston remained undefeated but didn’t score the 95 points it did against SMU last year in a 95-21 vic tory. “Whether we win by one point or 200-0 doesn’t really matter to me,” said Houston coach John Jenkins. “All that matters is that we win the game.” page 9 SWC Standings Team Record Houston 5-0 TCU 3-0 Texas 2-0 Baylor 2-1-1 Texes A&M 1-1-1 Rice 1-3 Texas Tech 1-4 Arkansas 0-3 SMU 0-3 We’ve got some young players, but we played just about everybody we had. Those guys have to get better. We will look hard at those positions, and if there are personnel changes to be made, we’ll do that.” That includes the linebacker posi tion, which Slocum said missed seve ral big plays against the Bears. Mar cus Buckley started at outside linebacker ahead of Tyronne Ma lone, and the linebackers as a group missed key tackles. Bucky Richardson made his sec ond consecutive start, and com pleted five-of-12 passes for 89 yards, one touchdown and one intercep tion. The junior now has thrown a touchdown pass in three straight games, but he’s also thrown seven in terceptions in those three games. “We’ve got five games left, and we could have a very good season if we win those five games,” Slocum said. “That would put you at 9-2-1, and there are a lot of teams like us. There are a bunch of teams that have had some of the same problems we’ve had. “You don’t panic and you don’t throw in the towel. We’ve got to fig ure out a way to get better. We will look at everything we’re doing to try to do that.” Re-elect <MCDONALD Judge 85th District Court Judge Tom McDonald’s average yearly disposition rate of cases is 97% while the state average is 46%.
