This week, the No. 7 Aggies are wearing black jerseys in practice, much like the Nebraska defense does in football. “The black shirts during Nebraska week is we want to be tougher,” said A&M coach G. Guerrieri. “We want to be mean er. We want to be a little more working class, and we want to be the baddest we can.” The No. 22 Cornhuskers are historically a physical team, and the rivalry between Nebraska and A&M (11-2-2, 4-1-2 Big 12) has taken physical turns in the past, reaching a peak in 1999 when A&M goalkeeper Melanie Wilson received a red card, which was followed by a bench- |clearing brawl. Now, with the Big 12 regu lar season championship up for grabs, the Aggies must match the physical play of Nebraska (10-4-1, 5-2) to have a chance of defending its 2002 champi onship. “Playing against Nebraska is always a tough game,” said junior forward Emma Smith. “They come out and they’re hard, and they’re physical, and the only way we’re going to be able to beat them is if we match Sharon Aeschbach •THE BATTALION Texas A&M forward Emma Smith goes up for a header against Iowa State's Lindsey Lees last Friday. The No. 7 Aggies host two ranked opponents this weekend: No. 22 Nebraska tonight and No. 1 2 Colorado on Sunday. that energy.” The Aggies are hoping a practice schedule this week focused on intensity, hustle and intimidation will prepare them for the Huskers and their last two games with Big 12 leading Colorado and archrival Texas. “We’re just getting our mind right,” said A&M sophomore goalkeeper Kati Jo Spisak. “We’re running all over the place, getting knocked down, getting back up and getting hit.” The coaching staff and the team were not happy with their performance at Missouri where the Aggies gave up as many goals as they had in their previ ous 14 matches. Now that the Aggies must win out in their last three games, and hope Colorado ties or loses in addition to losing to the Aggies, A&M cannot afford to have a breakdown like it did at Missouri. “When you play against teams like Nebraska, or North Carolina, or 2myone else that is very physical you better be ready to compete and play your hardest every second,” Guerrieri said. “Every second of every training session we’re going to Armstrong says he took this year s Tour win for granted mmates needed, Brand new $450/mo. bills included. 979- sady Nowl 2bdrm/1.5ba, pets :er paid 695-8783 roommate for Spring 20W i5/mo +1/2bills call Amber al >7.

Although he won the 2003 Tour, the Texan was to near breaking point. As he prepares for to win a record six Tours, he says he’ll never underesti mate the punishing 100-year-old race again. “I was angry with my per formance,” Armstrong told The Associated Press on Thursday. "I had never been on the limit like that and quite frankly it was an experience I would not like to repeat. I took the race for granted.” Armstrong’s problems started before the Tour, with stomach flu that nearly stopped him from making the flight to France. He crashed twice in the race, struggled in the Alps, lost 11 pounds through dehydration, swerved across a bumpy field to avoid a fallen suffered foot cramps, technical difficulties jst Abortion Peer Counsel^I nt buy it back?
