Description

The Texas Christian University Horned Frogs are hosting the visiting Texas A&M Aggies at Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, Texas. Disaster plagued the Frogs in the first quarter of the game. Aggie tailback Derace Moser (number 42) is shown lopping sixteen yards to the Frog thirty-seven yard line. Kyle Gillespie (number 40, extreme left) attempted to make a tackle when an Aggie blocker clipped him. The Frogs' backfield ace suffered a serious leg injury and was removed from the game. The clipping penalty was called against the Aggies and backed them up to their forty-three yard line. Other Texas Christian University (T. C. U.) defenders on the field are Frank Kring (number 30), Nolan Sparks (number 24), Frank Medanich (number 10), and Jack Odle (number 54), Bill Crawford (number 61), Phil Roach (number 80), Mike Harter (number 62), Darrell Palmer (number 71), and Bruce Alford (number 83). The Aggie blockers are Jim Sterling (number 81) and Dickey (number 82). Spectators are enjoying the game. Texas A&M went on to win 14-0.
