to be on life support itself early
this year, with losses to Louisiana
Tech, Colorado and Texas Tech in
its first four games. But as more
and more running backs have en
tered the picture at Baylor, the re
sults have been favorable.
The legs of quarterback J.J. Joe
and five different running backs
have led the Bears to consecutive
wins over Southern Methodist,
Texas Christian and Houston.
And Teaff said that the rotation in
the backfield has been a big part
of his squad's turnaround.
"We have used three tailbacks
and two fullbacks this year," Teaff
said. "It's worked out real well."
With starters Robert Strait and
David Mims at fullback and tail
back, respectively, Teaff already
had rushing talent that most
coaches would envy. But the abil-
ity of backups John Henry and
Kendrick Bell, as well as tailback
Bradford Lewis, have forced Teaff
to spread the wealth.
"Last year, John probably had a
better year than this one/' Teaff
said. "He's been a little bit dinged
up this year, but he's getting bet
ter.
"We've got kind of a thunder-
and-lightning attack (at fullback)
with Robert and John. John's
faster than Robert, but he's not as
big."
Although there are more simi
larities between Mims and Bell,
the speed of the latter provides an
interesting contrast with Mims'
straight-ahead style.
"Kendrick is one of those wiry
little guys that has great accelera
tion, ' Teaff said. "We didn't
know where to play Kendrick
when he came in (as a freshman).
We had him at defensive back at
first, but there was a need at tail
back, and he filled it well.
"Kendrick has really come on.
He's found a great niche."
The niche for Teaff, as always.
remains winning football games.
With the Bears' 29-23 win over
Houston last week, Teaff passed
legendary Army ex-coach Earl
"Red" Blaik for 36th on the NCAA
all-time wins list. The victory also
raised his SWC coaching record to
82-72-3.
As he adds his name to the list
of all-time coaching greats, Teaff
said that the lofty company he
finds himself in definitely means a
lot.
"I think that, first of all, as
someone who has been in coach
ing all of his life, it's kind of spe
cial," he said. "It has significance
to me. If you look back at all of
the great coaches over the past 100
years, it means a lot.
"I'm especially proud of my
Southwest Conference record.
But when it comes game time
though, all of that really doesn't
matter."
When game time arrives Satur
day at Kyle Field, Teaff is sure to
take that same no-nonsense ap
proach against the Aggies, who
have won five of their last six
games against Baylor. Buteve
though his main concern isgefe
that fourth conference win,fe
said that his last triptoCollep
Station as a head coach willte:
little melancholy.
"I have to really work atm
thinking about it (his lastganM
Kyle Field)," Teaff said. Tmm
of those individuals that taels
go to A&M. It's afwaysftffiV
great joy to go there."
It might not be such a joyim
considering A&M's statusisfe
best team playing at honMiil?
SWC throughout thte paslssw/ t
years. But Teaff, the eternity
mist that he is, sees thatasarojot
ingredient of the KyieFielJat-
mosphere.
"They have a great stadia®
and great fans," Teaff said.'/ft
all a part of it. Wherever you play
the Aggies now, whether its in a
parking lot or a stadium,they 1 !!
tough to beat.
"The big thing the players real
ize is that it's an intimidalinp
place to play, but it's a
to play."

weekend.
Maybe we could set up a little
friendly competition between
A&M and Baylor students.
How does a river raft race on
the Brazos on the Friday before
the game sound? The race would
be about a quarter-mile long, and
the A&M racing team would get
to pull its raft with a motor boat
while Baylor only gets to use a
boat oar.
I made up the race; therefore, I
make the rules.
We could create such an event
with t.u., but they'd probably
cheat.
Two years ago, Baylor sprin
kled a little spice on the Highway
6 rivalry. Do you remember who
was the last visiting team to
come into Kyle Field and not
lose?
It was da Bears.
They tied A&M, 20-20, back in
1990. Are you ready to forgive
these guys?
Look out. Da Bears have been
playing well lately after getting
off to a slow start.
They have won four out of
their last five games, and they
probably think they can do better
than a tie this year.
Tomorrow's game will have
extra special meaning for Baylor
because it will be the last time the
Bears' veteran head coach. Grant
Teaff, will oppose A&M.
The Baylor boss announced
his retirement from coaching ef
fective at the end of the season,
but he will remain Baylor's ath
letic director.
Baylor is still in the thick of
the Southwest Conference race
with a 3-1 conference record, and
da Bears would just love to end
Teaff's farewell tour in the Cot
ton Bowl on January 1.
Teaff deserves such a send-off.
But the Aggies, with all due
respect to Teaff, have more at
stake than sentimental wealth
with their national championship
goal still well in sight.
ABC-TV even thinks enough
of tomorrow's affair to televise it
regionally, which is great for Ihe
Aggies. The country's fifth-
ranked team needs to be covered
by network television more than
they have been thus far.
The Aggies need to be seen
outside of this area. An Aggie
win, coupled with the national
exposure, may draw the media
votes that they need to move up
in the polls.
It could be a big break for you,
too. It's your chance to be seen
on the tube back home.
Call your folks and tell them
to look for you in the crowd. Tel
them you'll be the one wavinga
white towel and yelling "Mag
gies!"
