Only Irvin had more catches than the two running backs. All of that provides varied op tions for quarterback Troy Aik- man, a condition Irvin thinks is ideal against Buffalo. "They play cover-two a lot, which is a two-deep zone," he said, offering some playbook X's and O's. "I haven't seen much three-deep zone. "If you get on your knees and we both pray enough, we may see some of that." Title Continued from Page 5 who can seemingly do anything while only being a sophomore. Branch leads the conference in assists by a wide margin, and al ways seems to know when A&M needs a three-pointer or a steal. On Wednesday night at Texas Christian, Branch set a new A&M record by nailing six three- pointers, while scoring a career- high 24 points. Branch says she wants to play in Europe professionally after graduating, but 1 believe she should talk to the Rockets about replacing the consistently incon sistent Kenny Smith, who will probably be past his prime by Branch's graduation date. But the Lady Aggies are hard ly a one-woman show. Down in the low-post lurk any combina- Aikman to decide if he will play in 'meaningless' game The Associated Press ATLANTA — Dallas quarter back Troy Aikman said Thursday he will visit his doctor in Birming ham the day after the Super Bowl to determine whether he will be healthy enough to be the starter for the NFC team in the Pro Bowl on Feb. 6. "It's been a painful year," Aik man said. "I've had a hamstring pull andl separated both shoul ders, and tore cartilage in my ribs. "I have a hard enough time staying healthy for the regular sea son, let alone playing a game that is rather meaningTess." tion of sophomores Martha Mc Clelland and Kelly Cerny, and freshman Marianne Miller. This trio usually uses its height advantage and position ing power to turn inside passes into easy Aggie baskets. On the wings, A&M's corps of forwards provides steady offensive punch and defensive pressure, led by seniors Beth Burket and Nikki Littles. Burket averages nearly nine points a game, and when she gets hot, she can be nearly un stoppable. Littles is more of a Dennis Rodman-type player (although with much better hair), who bangs the boards and shuts down opposing players using her 6-foot, 1-inch , 175-pound frame for pure physical intimida tion. Sophomore guard Donyale Canada fills the other starting guard position, and is as pesky as Branch on defense, in addition O.K.,rM BftcK I'lL+AKC if from hcf - •f / to contributing a healthy seven points per game As the Dan Majerle Nike com mercial says about putting a stat in the newspapers for the players who hustle the most, they had better spell guard Bambi Fergu son's name right. Another sophomore, Ferguson, when called off the bench plays with such intensity that the players around her can't help but step it up a notch. Last Sunday afternoon versus Cal State Sacramento, Ferguson dove on the court or leapt out of bounds for a loose ball at least four times in about 10 minutes. In addition, she had the shot of the day, which although it did not count, came after a hard foul, while she was falling forwards to the court. So you've got ESPN, TNT and HSE, why do you need to come watch a game in person? The reasons are exactly the same as those for going to a foot ball game: everyone stands up, I the yell leaders are there, along with a portion of the band. If you don't like basketball, you can come merely to see young Reveille VI bark at small children. Plus, as an added bonus, you get to actually use the "Sit down, Bus driver!' yell, and be close enough to the action to see why you're using it. The Lady Aggies return home next Wednesday to play Baylor, followed by a monumental rum ble with the Texas Tech Lady Red Raiders on Saturday night. Tech is currently ranked sixth in the nation and a win over them would put A&M in agree: position down the stretch in the,, conference race. So come on over to G. Rollie j Ags. Just consider it a two-hour | study break where you caneal and drink, whoop and holler and see a bunch of fellow Aggies try to bring home the glory. mm Frida j T gendi crimi in Soi j.
