Texas Aven. (Lacks Center) Htn-lil Nocn til 7 p.m. — Leaf to start against Atlanl Ian pas? leckpoi IRVING, Texas (AP) — Ryan Leaf getting another chance as an NFL starter. Dallas coach Dave Campo said Monday, a day after Leaf made his first appearance with the Cowboys, that Leaf would be the starting quarterback next weekend at Atlanta. “We feel Ryan will give us a little spark, and he feels comfortable with the offense,” Campo said. “This is definitely an evalua tion process.” Leaf was the No. 2 overall pick by San Diego in 1998 and was 4-14 as a starter the last three years. The Chargers cut him after last season, and he did not make Tampa Bay’s roster during training camp. The Cowboys (2-5) signed Leaf on Oct. 12, and Sunday he will be their fourth dif ferent starting quarterback this season. He follows rookie Quincy Carter, Anthony Wright and Clint Stoerner. Carter and Wright are out with injuries. Stoerner threw interceptions on four straight drives, including two in the end zone, in the second half of Sunday’s 27-24 overtime loss at the New York Giants. Campo confirmed the anticipated move after team meetings Monday, when he had an opportunity to speak to both quarterbacks. Campo said the move was not based on Stoerner’s performance Sunday, but rather a desire to take a good look at Leaf. Carter, who has played just five quarters, is expected back from hamstring surgery in early December. lives, st= We feel Ryan will give us a little sparky arid he feels comfortable with the offense.

Unacceptable Continued from Page 3A It was not that the Tech defense was strong; it was just that the Aggie offense made critical mistakes when it should have been making criti cal plays. Junior quarterback Mark Farris threw an interception at the goal line in the waning sec onds of the first half that would have put the Aggies up 7-3 at halftime. Freshman wide receiver Terrence Murphy coughed up the football at the Tech 15-yard line after converting on a fourth-and-three. Convert either of those attempts, and the Aggies’ chances of winning the game increase dramatically. Now the Aggies have more to worry about than will they win a game the rest of the sea son. The better question is, will they score a point? If they play they way they did Saturday against Oklahoma and Texas, two of the best defenses in the Big 12, odds are their point total heading into Lubbock will be the same when they head to Shreveport. Of course, if OU and Texas do the same to A&M as what Tech did, do not expect them to behave the way Tech fans did. Those two schools actually have been there before.
