The Redskins (2-0) snapped a six-game Monday night losing streak by parlaying a fake punt into the game-deciding touch down in a 33-31 victory over their most pesky rival, the Dallas Cow boys. Brian Mitchell ran for three yards for a first down on fourth- and-one from the Washington 48 to set up Gerald Riggs 1-yard scor ing run with 12:48 left in the for Dallas. It was the Cowboys' longest touchdown run since Her- schel Walker went 84 yards against Philadelphia in 1986. Rypien was equally brilliant, hitting tight end Jimmie Johnson with a 3-yard scoring toss and finding Art Monk all alone behind Issiac Holt for a 37-yard touch down pass. Lohmiller kicked field goals of 53 and 52 yards. Smith, who got an upset stom ach after the touchdown run, came back to take a 5-yard scoring pass from Aikman. It was the first touchdown pass Smith had ever fourth quarter. The touchdown came after completions of 23 and 18 yards by Mark Rypien. The victory put Washington (2-0) into a first-place tie with the Phoenix Cardinals in the NFC East. The Redskins are 18-16 on Monday night while Dallas is 19- 17. Chip Lohmiller's fourth field goal, a 46-yarder with 5:39 to play, gave Washington a nine-point lead. Lohmiller's third field goal, a 45-yarder, gave Washington its first lead of the game 23-21 at 11:53 in the third quarter but Dal las (1-1) regained the lead on a 51- yard field goal by Ken Willis at 6:08. The Cowboys and Redskins hooked up in a wild-scoring track meet in the first half, with Dallas leading 21-20 after enough offense for two games. Troy Aikman threw three touchdown passes, the last to Michael Irvin from six yards out with two seconds to go, and Em- mitt Smith broke four tackles on a dazzling 75-yard touchdown run caught including three years at Florida. Smith has five touchdowns in three career games against Wash ington. Dallas coach Jimmy Johnson came out gambling early. From Washington's 38 on fourth-and- three, Aikman completed a 17- yard pass to Novacek. Four plays later, Novacek snared a 3-yard touchdown toss from Aikman for a 7-0 lead. Washington tied it 7-7 on the Rypien-to-Johnson connection but Smith's run made it 14-7. After a Lohmiller field goal, Aikman's touchdown pass to Smith upped the count to 21-10. Monk duped Holt with a stop- and-go pattern as Washington pulled within 21-17 with 4:18 left in the half and Lohmiller added his second field goal with eight seconds left in the half. The teams hadn't combined for so many points in one half since 1969. Smith finished with 112 yards in 11 carries and caught eight passes for 42 yards. Whitley continued from Page Or even the top half of the con ference, for that matter. He went right to work in modeling a team that could fall for a clone of Texas A&M. It was ma roon and white to begin with, but he added a non-scholarship kick return squad a la the 12th Man, another Sherrill invention. Also, he modeled his strategy around a solid quarterback, name ly William "Sleepy" Robinson, who is reminiscent of another great Sherrill quarterback, Kevin Murray. Say what you want about his ways of getting things done, but Jackie Sherrill never fails to muster football talent, and never fails to motivate them. Saturday, he took his under dog squad and ripped apart what was supposed to be the best de fensive line in the country. Robin son racked up 145 total yards and, at times, had all day to throw the ball. The key to the game, however, was offense, or rather Texas' lack of such. Quarterback Peter Gardere, one of the most overrat ed quarterbacks around, was inef fective until the last quarter. But even then on the Longhorns' final two drives, the Bulldog defense held them to three points after getting a first down and goal at the five. Then, after completing a few passes, Gardere was sacked on fourth down at the Bulldog 19-yard line to clinch the upset. Needless to say, the victorious Bulldogs carried their new hero off the field on their shoulders as Starkville, Mississippi rejoiced. Their Bulldogs were 2-0, and Texas once more felt the wrath of Sherrill. Even Aggie fans, who still bite their tongue when the mere men tion of Jackie Sherrill comes up, forced a smile upon seeing their old coach knock over the guys from Austin, again. It has been a long wait for Sherrill, but Saturday he showed the football world that he still knows how to build winners, and how to beat Longhorns. Look out, ol' Jackie is back. Dykes all smiles about Red Raiders Sf s performance amei AMEI Lori l\, LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Texas Tech coach Spike DyfcAQQi says getting out of the first gaj; g n gj n of the season with a victoryis ; big relief, even if it was again-.

Tech finishe the game with a goal-line stand "We played a great defensiv game," Dykes said. "I can't re- member when we played aswel The pursuit was just excellent." The win was costly for Techii terms of injuries. Wide receiver Rodney Black hear, who led the Southwest Coitjj ference in receiving yards (9 last year, and wide receiver lloydl Hill both suffered knee injuries] that will put them out of the line] up for at least one week.

Oregon, the Pacific 10 Confer ] ence runner-up last year behind] Washington, defeated Washing] ton State 40-14 Saturday. "Oregon will be breathing fir when they come in here," Dyke: said. "They are a big-time football team. "They can run it and throw it and they are loaded with experij ence on defense. "It will be quite a test for u: this early in the season." Dykes said he was very im pressed with Marcus Brooks,Ore gon's 6-foot-2, 299-pound nose- tackle. "He's as good as there is in the country," Dykes said. "He is sure-fire first-round draft choice, "He's so big and strong he could go bear huntin' with a switch." Dykes said he expects a physi cal game with the Ducks, whose offensive line averages 6-5 more than 270 pounds. cl 1 COMMIT TO BE FIT!
