middle of the court to take some
of the ball handling pressure
away from the point guard,
Texas A&M has added a new
twist to their offense.
"The second best ball handler
will get the ball if I start getting
pressure," Branch said. "The
two guards, Donyale Canada,
Lana Tucker and Bambi Fergu
son, can handle the ball just as
well as I can."
Hickey said she hopes fresh
man forward Marianne Miller
can improve on her game-high
12-rebound performance.
And, even though Hickey said
the Lady Aggies might be fa
vored against TSU, she knows
the Lady Aggies do not want to
"blow this game."
"We want to see a lot of ag
gressiveness (against TSU,)"
Hickey said. "This week will be
a chance to put a foot in the
ground and start off the season
well."
Texas A&M point guard Lisa
Branch (22) makes a move
during the Lady Aggies' pre
season victory over the Vilnius
Rina team from Lithuania.
Branch dished out a game-
high 10 assists in that contest.
In the season opener, A&M
defeated Arizona State on the
road, 73-68.
West Virginia may
elude Cotton Bowl
The Associated Press
So what'll it be. West Virginia
— the Cotton or Sugar Bowl?
The undefeated, third-ranked
Mountaineers appeared headed
to the Cotton on Sunday, but ap
parently are now leaning toward
the Sugar. If the switch occurs, it
would send Notre Dame to the
Cotton against No. 7 Texas A&M
and West Virginia to the Sugar
against No. 9 Florida or No. 16
Alabama.
The major reasons: money and
television.
The Sugar Bowl pays $4.15
million per team, compared with
$3 million for the Cotton. The
switch also would benefit NBC,
which televises the Cotton Bowl
and has a multimillion-dollar deal
to show Notre Dame home
games.
NBC, which will televise the
expected showdown between
top-ranked Florida State and No.
2 Nebraska in the Orange Bowl,
denied playing a role in the West
Virginia situation.

Then, the teams that finished
ranked in the top 16 of the
coach's poll (because that is the
only poll that really counts)
would square off against each
other in a format of one vs. 16,
two vs.15, three vs.14, ....etc.
The first playoff game would
be played at the higher seed's
home stadium and then the sec
ond round would be held at the
sites of the major bowls.
The Orange, Cotton, Citrus
and Fiesta Bowls would all play
host to these second round
matchups, allowing the lucky
schools to earn money for their
athletic programs.
The semifinal games would
be played at the Rose Bowl and
Sugar Bowl. The two winners
of this game would then play in
the new granddaddy of all
bowls.
It would be perfect if the
game could be played on the
Saturday before the Super Bowl
at the same site.
And now....the top ten rea
sons for having a college foot
ball playoff system:
10. No more 1990 Georgia
Tech co-national champions.
9. Lee Corso gets first round
bye.
8. Longer seasons, more in
juries, more 12th men get to
P la Y
7. College football is much
more exciting than the NFL
anyway.
6. More reasons for NBC to
kiss up to Notre Dame.
5. Aggies have a chance to
earn national respect.
4b. Time for Sports Illustrat
ed to talk more trash about
Florida State.
4a. Houston Cougars can get
an early jump on their basket
ball season.
3. No more Brigham Younf
1985 National Champions.
2. Lou Holtz can't complain
about not being a 'national
champion.'
1. Undefeated teams can ac
tually be national champions
Oh well, at least it is some
thing to think about during the
next four weeks of college foot
ball withdrawal.

did. Big players make big plays,
and Glenn proved worhty of
Thorpe and the status of the best
defensive back in the nation.
Speaking of big players, defen
sive end Sam Adams posted his
best numbers in his three-year ca
reer. Adams played like he did
his freshman year, and at times,
he dominated. Take a look at his
numbers
He had 77 tackles and 10 1/2
sacks, including nine stops
against Texas Tech. To wit, he is a
Lombardi Award finalist.
But the biggest surprise was
the play of Antonio Shorter.
He took over the outside line
backer spot vacated by Marcus
Buckley and registered 10 sacks
and 70 tackles. Looks like he was
a pretty able replacement.
Offensively, any discussion has
to start with the tailback trio.
Greg Flill had 710 yards in seven
games. Rodney Thomas had 999
yards, including 201 against
Louisiana State. McElroy - well,
he did about everything.
Rushing, he had 626 yards.
Receiving, he had 224 yards. He
led the nation in kickoff returns,
averaging 39 yards per return.
But he saved his best for last.
With A&M's offense struggling
against Texas, McElroy exploded
for a 103-yard kickoff return that
put the Aggies up 7-6 and incon-
trol of the game.
Quarterback Corey Pullig
struggled in the early going (see
Oklahoma). In fact, he stunk up
the field against the Sooners, but
it seems like he has grasped con
trol of the offense. Pullig still
struggles at times with his timing.
Maybe his two hookups with
wide receiver Tony Harrison
against the Longhorns will jolt
him into another realm. To win
the Cotton Bowl, the Aggies need
a career performance from Pullig.
Speaking of Cotton, the sev
enth-ranked Aggies are now
preparing for the 1994 New Year's
Day game against...who?
Third-ranked West Virginia
was the rumored opponent, but
now the Mountaineers are opting
to take the money and run into
the Sugar Bowl.
This leaves fifth-ranked Notre
Dame there for the taking.
Great, a rematch. Harken bad
to last year when the Cotton Bowl
selection committee railed about
how they did not want Florida St
to play A&M again in 1993 after
A&M lost a 10-2 decision to the
Seminoles in 1992. The committee
did not want a rematch, it was
claimed.
Just a second - who did the
Aggies play last year in Dallas?
Whether it be a rematch with
the Fighting Irish or a shot at the
11-0 Mountaineers, that is not im
portant. A&M needs a win in the
worst way to salvage any respect
nationally.
Or they at least need to score a
touchdown in Dallas, something
not accomplished by A&M in the
last two Cotton Bowls.
