Defense also suffers from injury bug
Continued from Page 7
"I can play with it nagging me,
but I can t play with it when it
feels like rubber and it doesn't act
right."
Richardson's injury status has
forced the A&M coaching staff to
play a guessing game with its of
fensive strategy against USL.
"With Bucky hurt, there's a
considerable portion of our of
fense that is not that good to us
right now because it was put in to
taxe advantage of his abilities,"
Slocum said.
"We will put in a couple of
new things this week to give us a
little more offense in the event that
Bucky can't play. We've got to go
ahead and plan on him not play
ing. We've got to get us enough
offense going where we can play
Granger and Petty and say we're
not an option team."
Richardson said the rest may
improve the injury but may also
be detrimental to the quarterback
when the Aggies open Southwest
Conference play Oct. 5 in Lubbock
against Texas Tech.
"I've missed almost two games
and its time for me to get back in
Bergeron
the lineup," he said. "Certainly I'd
like to get out there and stand in
the pocket a little bit and run and
get the feel of things, and get
ready for conference."
Carter will miss his second
game of the season Saturday be
cause of an ankle he sprained dur
ing the LSU game. Freshman Clif
Groce will start again at fullback
in place of Carter.
McAfee, a senior tailback, has
f iracticed this week and may see
imited action against the Ragin'
Cajuns, Slocum said.
The A&M defense will also be
without key players.
Coryatt will be sidelined Satur
day with a dislocated shoulder
and Wheeler is listed as very
doubtful with a pulled groin mus
cle.
Slocum said the defensive
gameplan will be altered because
of the losses.
The coach said the Aggies'
lack of significant depth and expe
rience at the noseguard and
linebacker positions will be tested.
Tucker will also miss the USL
game due to a shoulder injury.

ponent's pass go by.
Smith made his mark at A&M
in the first start of his Aggie ca
reer, by picking off a pass against
Houston and returning it for
llyards. It's been a road to glory
for him ever since, and he has
been busy rewriting the Aggie
recordbooks in the interception
categories.
It was a welcomed surprise to
see him strip his 19th interception,
because the word is out and most
S iarterbacks avoid Smith like
ey avoid the plague . Smartly
so, although that certainly won't
keep Smith from stripping the
ball. With his cat-like quickness
he is all over the field at any given
moment, coming out of nowhere
as if he has read the quarterback's
mind.
Smith seems to add a special
spirit to the game because it's no
secret that interceptions are a
great momentum rush to the play
ers and also light a fire in the fans.
Tabbed as the pre-season All-
America, he is a top candidate for
the Thorpe Award which is pre
sented to the outstanding defen
sive back in the nation. Smith
needs eleven more interceptions
to secure and break the NCAA ti
tle It's a great task, but not un
reachable. Perhaps an easy gain
will come in this weekend's game
against USL. That's at least a giv
en one interception right?
It's a shame some of us had to
view his record setting steal on TV
because it would have been much
sweeter at Kyle Field, and per
haps the celeoration would have
lasted longer. But the rest of the
season is definitely marked for
Smith to give us a show on his
home turf.
The Aggie's better relish it
now. because all too soon Smith
will be dealing the show in the
NFL.

Cobb becomes threat at Rice
HOUSTON (AP) — Rice
running back Trevor Cobb has
been a well-kept secret for the
past few years but now that he's
the nation's leading rusher, it's
harder to keep him under
wraps.
Cobb rushed 193 yards in
the season opener against
Northwestern and 216 yards in
a 28-19 victory over Tulane last
week for a 204.5 per game aver
age and the national lead.
Now he's well-known, expe-
cially to Iowa State, Saturday's
opponent in the Owls' home
opener in Rice Stadium.
"I've kept kind of quiet
about Trevor other than the nor-
mai questions over the past two
or three years," Rice coach Fred
Goldsmith said. "But in all hon
esty, he's getting better every
day. He was mudh better in this
game than he was the game be
fore."
In two games, Cobb has be
come Rice v s all-time rushing
leader with 2,279 yards. He be
came the Owls' first 1,000-yard
rusher last season with 1,325
yards on 283 carries.
Goldsmith calls Cobb the
best conditioned athlete he's
coached.
'Trevor has 4.6 speed,
which is good, but the differ
ence in Trevor is he's 4.6 the
whole game because he's so
conditioned," Goldsmith said.
Cobb ran 51 yards for a
touchdown on his 36th and final
carry to ice the victory over Tu
lane.
"I think I run faster in a
game," Cobb said. 'There's
something about a football un
der your arm and a game that
makes you run faster.
Rice fans liked the touch
down, but Goldsmith called
Cobb's previous carry the play
of the game.
"The touchdown, that was
icing on the cake," Goldsmith
said. 'To me, the run before that
on the option was just super. He
really had to turn on some
speed that normally we didn't
think he had.
"He had to find some extra
burners."
Cobb has become such an at
tention-getter, he's hearing
Heisman Trophy talk that went
to cross-town rival Houston
quarterback David Klinglerin
preseason. The Cougars are off
to a 1-2 start.
"I try not to think about it
too much," Cobb said. "I try to
stay focused on playing and do
ing the things I've been doing. I
don't want to eet sidetracked.If
it comes fine, ill take it."
After keeping quiet about
his star runner. Goldsmith now
isn't beyond doing some name-
dropping, specifically, two-time
Heisman Trophy winner Archie
Griffin of Ohio State.
"Trevor reminds me of
Archie Griffin," Goldsmith said.
"He (Griffin) was a guy that ran
the sprint draw in the I-forma-
tion and did a lot of the same
plays that we are running with
the one-back.
"Archie could find that hole
and when he hit it, he hit it
tough."
So can Cobb.
'Trevor can run north-south
and he can hit inside with pow-
Matchup against Giants
stirs Johnson's emotions
IRVING, Texas (AP) — New
York Giants week brings out the
combative nature in Dallas coach
Jimmy Johnson.
Johnson got testy Tuesday
when pressed about the lack of
production by his wide receivers,
in particular Alexander Wright,
who has only caught three passes
for 41 yards in four games.
"Why don't you (the media)
just turn in the lineup cards so
we'll know who to play?" Johnson
said in a half-kidding manner.
Johnson laughed about it, but
owner Jerry Jones was so con
cerned he issued an off-hand apol
ogy, saying:"! understand Jimmy
was a little testy today. When you
play the Giants you get testy. But I
just want to let you know that the
policy of the Dallas Cowboys is
you can ask any question any way
you want to.
"That's part of the ballgame.
I've been used to that happening
to me since the day I got here."
The Cowboys (2-2) play the Gi
ants (2-2) in a game Johnson sees
as a barometer of how far the fran
chise has progressed since he and
Jones took over three years ago.
"Without question a victory
over the Giants would put us
ahead of schedule of what people
might have expected," Johnson
said. "We do have a better football
team than what we've had the last
two years.
"There are days when we have
setbacks, but there is a confidence
that what we are doing is on
schedule. Deep down the players
have confidence that we are doinf
the right thing."
Johnson said nobody can stuf
a team on the line of scrimmagf
like the Giants.
"Everything is upbeat now be
cause of our (17-9) victory ovei
Phoenix but we have a tremen
dous challenge in playing theSu
per Bowl champions," said John
son, who has yet to beat the'Gi
ants. 'Theylare the most physia
team in the NFL. Their offensivi
line gets on somebody and jus!
stays with 'em. Their backs mr
hard.
"On defense, they don't blitr
much but still get a lot of pressuri
on the quarterback. If you try to <
run they just engulf the ball earn
er."
The Cowboys will be testinj
the Giants defense with the lead'
ing rusher in the NFL, Emmilt
Smith, who gained 182 yards
against the Cardinals last week.
Smith has 450 yards on 79 car
ries, compared with 388 yards on
68 carries by Thurman Thomasol !
Buffalo.
"Teams will start to concen
trate on Emmitt and it will hel[
our offense and we'll be ablet) 1
open it for Troy (Aikman) andtbi
wide receivers," Johnson said, "Ir I
the past we've had some decer:
games against the Giants."
