Houston had sched uled the game after Temple discon tinued the series, leaving the Cou gars with an open date no one else wanted. Klingler threw touchdown passes on Houston’s first six drives of the game en route to a 42-14 halftime lead. Aggies Continued from page 9 ending with a 10-yard quarterback keeper. Fullback E.D. Jackson pow ered ahead for two runs of 15 and 31 yards, bringing the down-and-out Hogs to within reach, 13-10. Wilson took control of the ball in the next A&M drive, and added 47 yards to an 82-yard offensive front. Richardson kept on a third-and- three from the 10 and ran right for the score. Talbot’s extra point put the Aggies ahead, 20-10. The Razorbacks threatened again in the fourth quarter with a first down at the A&M 11. But the Aggie defense held tight, allowing just an eight-yard gain and put Arkansas in a fourth-and-two situation at the three-yard line. Grovey went to the air, but safety Larry Horton broke up the pass in the endzone. A&M took over possession, but the Razorbacks recovered a Robert Wilson fumble on first down. The Razorbacks scored in four plays, and chose to go for a two-point conver sion. Grovey escaped from the grasp of linebacker Anthony Williams and threw into the endzone only to have the pass broken up again by Horton. Arkansas’ last hope was an onside kick. Aggie cornerback Kevin Smith caught the ball and fell on it, ending the Razorbacks’ hopes for their first SWC win in 1990. We didn’t play well enough to win,” Arkansas first-year head coach Jack Crowe said. “Our young players played well.

Duncan, working mostly against Adams, caught seven passes for a ca reer-high 130 yards. Cleveland (2-8) lost for the fifth straight time overall and matched a team record with its fourth consec utive home loss. It was the head coaching debut of Jim Shofner, el evated from offensive coordinator to replace the fired Bud Carson on Nov. 5. “We missed our two starting cor ners,” said Shofner, referring to Minnifield and Mark Harper, who has been out since dislocating his shoulder during the preseason. “It’s tough to go against a team like that. I thought we gave it a good go.” Houston (5-5) ended a two-game losing streak during which the Oil ers’ high-powered offense had man aged a total of 25 points. “We came into the game knowing we wanted to go deeper,” Moon said. “We wanted to get some big plays, rather than dinking the ball down- field like we had been.” The Browns took advantage of Houston turnovers for two first-half touchdowns. Kosar hit Ozzie News ome with a 13-yard touchdown pass less than two minutes into the game after Houston’s Bernard Ford fum bled away the opening kickoff. Der rick Gainer then scored his first ca reer touchdown on a 1-yard run following Moon’s fumble on a sack. Cowboys Continued from page 9 with continuity,” Aikman said of the Rams. While the Cowboys’ offense moved the ball well, linebacker Ken Norton came up with the key play of the game. Los Angeles had a second- and-goal at the Dallas 6 when Nor ton hit Cleveland Gary, forced a fumble and fell on the ball at the 5. Aikman then drove the Cowboys down the field for Willis’ deciding field goal. “What’s happening to us is night marish,” said Rams coach John Rob inson, whose team was touted in the preseason as a strong contender for a Super Bowl berth. “It’s very disap pointing to all of us and very pain ful.” Gary said of his costly fumble: “It’s a horrible feeling. We came up short and I feel horrible.” The fumble overshadowed what had been a fine performance by Gary, who carried 24 times for 103 yards and scored three touchdowns. Aikman completed touchdown passes of 10 and 61 yards to Michael Irvin, and 6 yards to Tommie Agee. Gary scored on runs of 16, 4 and 1 yards. Smith came up with a big play as the Cowboys moved down to the winning field goal, turning a short pass into a 44-yard gain to the Rams’ 27. Hoops. Continued from page 9 “The second half was the best we’ve played so far as a team. I knew we could play better. Defensively, we really stepped it up in the second half.” Davis said he was pleased how Lynn Suber responded in the second half. The senior finished the first half with four points, one assist and no steals. “I jumped him (Lynn) hard at halftime and he responded very well and that’s what your senior’s sup posed to do,” Davis said. “We spend a lot of time talking about guys re sponding to constructive criticism and he did really well.” Suber finished the game with eight points, six assists and four steals. Shedrick Anderson had 12 points and 11 rebounds, Rashone Lewis was the leading rebounder with 12 and chipped in 14 points, Issac Brown got 16 points in just 22 min utes.
