The Razorbacks are 3-0 in Southwest Conference play and are coming off a 29-17 win over Houston in Little Rock. The win is huge for the Razorbacks, who's only one conference win last season came against SMU. But it's hard to tell if Houston is as bad as they played last weekend, or if Arkansas is really that good. It's probably a com bination of both. Head coach Jack Crowe has helped his team find a respectable de fense. Officials from the Independence and Liberty bowls will be on hand Saturday to watch the game. Crowe's team is helping Arkansa fans forget last year's 3-8 disaster. Texas... The Longhorns are coming off a 10-7 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners. It was the biggest win of the year for Texas and could end up saving their season. The Longhorn offense sputtered again, failing to score a touchdown, but their defense was enough. The Texas defensive line is beginning to live up to expectations. Against OU, tackle James Patton had two sacks and spent most of the day in the Sooner backfield. key matchup... A revamped Hog defense, led by senior linebacker Mick Thomas, will give the Horns all they can handle. Texas has managed only five touchdowns in four games. Peter Gardere has had trouble grabbing the reigns of the Horn offense and No. 2 signal caller Jimmy Saxton is questionable with a bruised shoulder. when/where...noon Saturday, War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock line... Texas by 9.5 HI Texas Christian (4-1) vs. Rice (3-2) TCU... The Horned Frogs are 1-1 in conference play and are talking about playing in a bowl game this winter. They're not the only ones talking about it. Independence Bowl scouts will be at the game Saturday. Even though they'll be looking mainly at the Owls, TCU could make an impression with a big win. Redshirt freshman Tim Schade has done a surprisingly good job filling in for the injured Leon Clay. Schade has completed 60-of-90 passes for 751 yards. Rice... The Owls are coming off a 20-17 win over then No. 8 Baylor. It's the biggest win the Owls have had in the past 25 years. But they better not sit back and bask in the spotlight. Independence Bowl officials will be watching them Saturday. Last season Rice lost an invitation to the Independence Bowl with a 17-16 loss to Baylor, key matchup... The Frog defense has a simple task Saturday; stop Rice running back Trevor Cobb. He lead the conference and in No. 1 in the nation in rushing with an average of 177.6 yards a game. A highly-touted Baylor defense couldn't do it last week. TCU has its hands full. when/where... 2 p.m. Saturday, Rice Stadium in Houston line...

The tournament will include sin gles and doubles matches, but Sta ley will only compete in the sin gles competition. Texas A&M women's tennis coach Bobby Kleinecke said he is happy to have Staley back. "Of course, it's good just to have Lynn back on the court, Klei necke said. "But it also allows me to play the girls more to where they'll be in the lineup in the spring, A&M TENNIS NOTES: A&M senior captain Doug Brown lost in the first round of the main draw in the Volvo All-Amer ican Championships. Lousiana State's Tamer El Sawy defeated Brown 6-4, 6-1 Thursday. El Sawy is the 20th- ranked player in the nation. A&M tennis coach David Kent was pleased with Brown's perfor mance. "It was an excellent effort by Doug today, but he (El Sawy) was hitting all the shots," Kent said. "Doug played as good of tennis as I've seen him play since he's been here, and I couldn't be any more pleased with his effort. "He fought tooth-and-nail out there today." Brown made it through the qualifying rounds by defeating four of the nations top players, in cluding 45th-ranked Andy Potter of Kentucky. Tie won't be enough for A&M Continued from Page 7 Throw all the polls out and the ri valry is still there. Saturday will be the marquee day for the SWC this year. Saturday will be a day full of implications. "We're pretty excited about all of the (SWC) games, but this one means a lot," A&M linebacker Marcus Buckley said. "We're in conference now. These games are the ones that really determine the SWC championship. "If we want to be the champi on, we have to start just like this is our first game of the conference again, and we have to win this one and go on the the next one. We can't worry about after Baylor. We can't worry about what we did last week against Texas Tech. "We just have to come out and be ready for Baylor." That one point may make the difference. Bears ready for Aggies Continued from Page 7 the Bear line which also includes Robin Jones, Marcus Lowe and Teddy Patton. The Bear's defensive weakness can be found in the secondary.
