SERVING THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS FOR MORE THAN 100 YEARS aily T exan BIG TEX welcomes y’all to the THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2001 25 CENTS Red River Shootout By Ttavts Richmond Daily Texan Staff I t's as much a part of fall as the changing of the leaves and the dropping of the temperature. Every year in early October, teams from the two biggest schools in Texas and Oklahoma meet halfway to do battle on the football field, primarily for 12 months worth of bragging rights and, in recent years, for Big 12 standing. Fans from across both states flock to the Texas State Fair hopmg their team will emerge victo­ rious, ensuring hours of boasting on the town Saturday night after ihe game. *601 fhis year, Texas versus Oklahoma means more — much more. "Any player who underestimates how impor­ tant this game is doesn't deserve to play," said Texas defensive end Kalen Thornton, who made his first-ever start in last year's Texas-OU matchup. College football fans across the nation and most people living in the Lone Star State remember exactly what happened in 2000. Texas entered the game with a three-year win­ ning streak over Oklahoma, but second-year OU coach Bob Stoops led his Sooners to a 63-14 victory. The 49-point annihilation was topped only by OU's 50-0 win in 1908. Oct. 7, 2000 became a turning point for both programs. The Sooners went on to win every game last season and claim the undisputed national title, while the Horns were relegated to the second tier of college football — a position they cannot escape until they beat the Sooners. "That game was the worst and best thing that ever happened to us," Texas head coach Mack Brown said. "In some ways, we got a little com­ placent." Texas players admit they were overconfident against the Sooners, who scored the game's first 42 points while the Horns had yet to cross midfield. In 1999, Oklahoma built a quick 17-0 lead only to see the Horns rally for a 38-28 win, a fact that Texas offensive tackle Mike Williams said the team took for granted last year. "We thought they had the same team as the year before, and since we beat them it was going to be a cakewalk," Williams said. "Then we came out there and had our heads chopped off because we didn't work hard." In the days after the devastating defeat, Brown rallied his coaches and players for hours of soul-searching meetings. "We had probably the best and most honest conversations about where we were and what we were doing," Brown said. "As long as you make a positive out of a negative, it can help you." Following the loss, Texas rebounded to win its last six regular-season games to earn a berth in the Holiday Bowl, building expectations for a possible national title run in 2001. The Horns have won their first four games this season by an average score 45-13 to to earn a No. 5 national ranking, and are undefeated entering the OU game for the first time since 1985. Meanwhile, No. 3 Oklahoma has shown no signs of letting up, also starting the season 4-0 and extending its current winning streak to 17 games. Texas quarterback Chris Simms, who will start his first OU game this weekend, said the Sooners recent success "adds fuel to the fire." "The reason I came here is to be part of games like this," said Simms, whose role is one of many that have changed for the Horns since last year's humiliating defeat. Simms is now the Horns' starting quarter­ back, a role he shared with Major Applewhite last season. It was Applewhite who started against the Sooners; Simms did not enter the game until the score was 28-0. Sophomore receivers Roy Williams and B.J. Johnson are also vital cogs in the Texas offense, but they were not named starters last season until after the Oklahoma game. Tight end Bo Scaife is also back after missing all of last year because of a knee injury. Oklahoma returns with most of its offense from a year ago, except for quarterback Josh Heupel, a 2000 graduate and runner-up for that year's Heisman Trophy. But the Sooners' defense is still very formidable, led by All-American Rocky Calmus, who returned a Simms interception for a touchdown in last year's game. "This game will be won by the team that plays the best and makes the fewest mistakes, because the teams are really good," Brown said. "This one won't be like last year's. It will be a fight from start to finish, and it will be really fun to watch." Texq* once again r*JliU with a fourth- quafter drive to boat 0U.

The Dallas economy benefits annually from the money fans spend on hotel rooms, restaurant meals and retail shopping — an amount comparable to Christmas-time sales, said Greg Elam, a spokesman for the Dallas Convention and Visitor Bureau. "If vou go to the malls on that weekend, you will find peo­ ple covered in orange and red," Elam said. The fans coming to Dallas are not limited to those attending the game, he said. The Cotton Bowl seats 72, 000 people, but on Saturday an estimated 225,000 people will go to the State Fair of Texas, which surrounds the football stadium, said Nancy Wiley, sen­ ior vice president for marketing and public relations for the State Fair of Texas. "It is usually the biggest or second-biggest day of the fair," Wiley said. Elam said alumni loyalty and the game's history contribute to the large number of people coming to Dallas for the week­ end. "The alumni are a major part of the crowd, and there are many that come to town that don't have tickets or go to the game," Elam said. "One of the special features is that it has been played here for generations, and it is a neutral site. It is a big trip for everybody. " Although Texas has seen a drop in tourism since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Elam said he doesn't expect that fewer fans will make the trip, because most of the travelers come by auto­ mobile. "This is a drive-in crowd," he said. "No one seems too reluc­ tant to go out once they got over the shock." But hotel owners around Dallas are not so confident this year's turnout will be as high as in years past. Ghualn Khan, general manager for a Dallas Holiday Inn said in the past eight years he has worked at the hotel, the 172 rooms were filled for the Texas-OU weekend. This year, the hotel still has 25 rooms available. Khan said the hotel anticipated a slowdown for the weekend because of the souring economic conditions, and didn't raise rates for the hotel rooms. "Every year we always sell out," Khan said. "This year we are not." Business for the West End, a marketplace of restaurants and retail stores in downtown Dallas, is influenced by the game's outcome, said Greg Schooley, executive director for the West End. Since most Oklahoma fans are traveling from out of state, they'll leave town early if the Sooners lose, Schooley said. Fans for both teams overwhelm the marketplace prior to the game on Saturday, increasing business by 15 to 20 percent, he added. "It is a good mix of both fans," Schooley said. "It is one of our stronger business times." Dallas City Councilman Leo Chaney said in years past the city's downtown streets have been closed because of fans crowding streets and sidewalks. Despite the overwhelming crowds, the economic benefits the dty receives greatly outweigh the negatives, Chaney said. "It has a tremendous positive impact," he said. "We look for­ ward to this event each and every year." Ben Anderson does electrical work Tuesday on one of the midway rides in preparation for the State Fair of Texas in Dallas. The event began Friday and runs through Oct. 21 at Dallas’ Fair Park, Associated Press Dallas’ Across the Street Bar gets ready for Texas-OU weekend Cheap beer, atmosphere have attracted UT students for years By Jennifer Mock Daily Texan Staff One hundred kegs of beer are ready and wait­ ing for UT students to consume at Across the Street Bar in Dallas, a well-known UT student hangout during the Texas-OU matchup. Phillip Leitch, general manager of the bar, said Texas fans have been coming to the bar for 10 years because of the laid-back atmosphere and cheap beer prices. "We have a great time with Texas people," he said. "We look forward to this weekend all year." This tradition didn't take root due to the bar's theme or location, but simply because of its cheap beer pitchers, he said. Though pitchers of beer now cost $2, when the bar first started becoming a hot-spot for Texas students, pitchers were 25 cents. Leitch said he did not raise the price by choice, but due to a state law that prevents people from selling beer under cost. Leitch pays $50 per keg and can get 35 to 40 pitchers out of one keg, thus setting the cost price at $1.43 each for 35 pitchers. But Leitch says the main reason the bar receives more business than other bars in Dallas is the $4,000 he spends on advertising directly to UT students. Leitch and his staff come to Austin two weeks before the game to advertise on campus and take fliers to many Greek houses. "We advertise it pretty well and spend more money than any other bar," he said. "In fact, I think we spend as much as every other bar com­ bined spends." Jeff Mixon, an English senior, said he first went to Across the Street Bar two years ago because he didn't know' Dallas well and he had heard a lot of Texas students went there. He went back the next year and has plans to visit yet again this Friday. "It's like a big tailgate party the night before the game," he said. "People w'alk around drinking from pitchers, not cups." Though the bar is normally filled with pool and foosball tables, Leitch clears them all out for this w'eekend, leaving it like an open warehouse, he said. "We left everything in one year and people were just dancing on the tables and singing the 'Eyes of Texas,"' he said. "So we clear everything out now to make more room for people." Between 1,000 and 1,500 people come through the bar on Texas-OU weekend, Leitch said, so he doubles his security and arranges cab rides home for people ahead of time. "We care about the safety of UT people," he said. "People like coming here because they feel safe. We never have any problems. I have even taken people home myself before." Despite the fact that the bar goes through between 80 and 120 kegs on game weekend, Leitch said it is not a big "drunkfest" w'ith people losing control. "A lot of people are having fun so they don't have to drink as much," he said. "UT has a lot of beautiful women. Who would want to go into [the bar] that drunk?" Along with beer, the bar has a deejay for the weekend and five live bands, two of which are from Austin, scheduled to perform. Though most of the people come in on Friday night before the game, if the University wins on Saturday, Leitch said his bar will be filled again. "Last year we were down considerably when UT lost," he said. "It broke our hearts. Everyone was in a bad mood. I didn't even want to open the doors, but I had to." Mixon said he tried to go to the bar after the loss last season but decided against it due to the lack of people there. "[My friends and I] called the bar from our hotel room last year after the blowout, and no one was there," he said. "It all hinges on if UT wins or not."

Four other airlines received more than $100 mil­ lion in federal aid — Northwest, $229.7 million; Continental, $191.2 million; US Airways, $159.7 mil­ lion; and Southwest, $144.4 million. At the low end, Florida West Airlines received $819 and Vieques Air Link received $4,013. Cargo-only airlines are also getting assistance; $500 million of the $5 billion is reserved for them. Federal Express received $100.7 million, while United Parcel Service received $24.6 million. The airline industry lobbied hard for the bill follow­ ing the attacks, which grounded their entire fleet for two days. Airlines are now flying about 80 percent of. their pre-Sept. 11 schedules, and plant's last Sunday were about two-thirds full. The airline industry contributed $6.8 million to fed­ eral candidates for the 2000 elections, and another $1.3 million since Jan. 1, 2001. On Wednesday, representatives of the la id-off air­ line employees rallied outside the Capitol asking Congress for their own financial package, including increased unemployment benefits and subsidized health insurance. The Air Transport Association, the trade group for the major airlines, endorsed their efforts Wednesday. Associated Press Treasury Secretary Paul O ’Neill listens to a question about the econom y before the House Financial Services Com m ittee W ednesday in Washington. “Currency can be as lethal as a bullet,” O ’Neill told m em bers of the com m ittee. posed legislation Wednesday that would expand the gov­ ernm ent's authority. The measure contains similar provi­ sions to those being sought by the administration. The House bill would establish a partnership between government and industry to block the financial backing of terrorists. Provisions directed at money laundering by drug traffickers and terrorists would make it a crime to smuggle more than $10,000 in cash or to knowingly falsify a custom er's identity when making a transaction with a bank. The U.S. government believes bin Laden and his al- Qaida network raise money through a variety of legitimate and illegal sources: charities, business enterprises and wealthy supporters as well as illegal weapons trafficking. Investigators and experts say members of the network make money any way they can to support the cause. DO YOU HAVE FALL ALLERGIES AND ASTHMA?

Andrew Johnson Undeclared sophomore Red scare continues In response to Brian Patton's Firing Line (Urban Communists?, Oct. 3): You, sir, are a M cCarthyist. Ultimately, you are insinuating that Urban Outfitters' use of Russian let­ ters .and display of controversial anti-government rebels is an attempt to plant seeds of uprising in the heads of students by the Soviet men­ ace. Look, comrade, it is the year 2001. It isn't 1951.1 can't believe anyone in this day and age would take offense to such "controversial" books sub­ jects as the history of Soviet Russia or M arxism. Should we burn these books just for good measure? Ex­ com m unicate the CEO of Urban Outfitters and all the customers who bought the shirt?

There is this notion of counter-culture that corporations that cater to the youth are more than eager to cash in on. Skateboarding, BMX biking, pot smoking and, yes, Communist para­ phernalia.

"For a building that's going to house famous artwork and because of its location on campus, 1 think the museum needed to be more prominent in design." He added that while he had not seen the interior design of the museum, which will be located at the comer of Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard and Speedway, the design factors from the exterior seemed limited. Kevin Alter, associate dean for graduate programs in the School of Architecture, also said the museum needed a more innovative design. He added that the design was not a fault of the architects, who he said Were clearly asked to design a tra­ ditional building. "Make no bones about it," he said. "I think they are a great firm, and Michael McKinnel is a brilliant man. They have done an admirable job with what I'm assuming was a difficult client that wanted something very safe." While the University hired Kallmann, McKinnel & Wood in October 2000 after a lengthy and controversial process, a UT System rule requires regental approval for construction designs. The University decided to hire the firm a year after the Swiss-based architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron — who presented a more innovative design — quit after at least two regents demanded that the firm's design comply with the UT Campus Master Plan. Conceived in 1933 by French architect Paul Cret, the Master Plan provides guidelines for campus construction focusing on a Spanish Renaissance architectural style, red-tile roofs and the use of limestone. But Alter said complying with the Master Plan does not mean the museum has to look like the other buildings on campus. The libraries and the Tower are distinct, yet still flow with the University's style, he added. For Altec the regents' conservative design choice contra­ dicts the forward-thinking, intellectual program of the School of Architecture, which ranks among die top 10 in the nation "A deed speaks a thousand words," he said. "It's much more applicable for students if we build a really progressive building [on campus] than to just talk about it" The regents' "superficial interpretation" of the Master Plan was a missed opportunity, he said. "I just think it's sad that in the year 2001, we're being regres­ sive rather than progressive," he said. "[The museum] certain­ ly won't go down in the history books." To his knowledge, opinions of professors and students were not solicited, and "no one has been allowed to see the design," which he said was unusual for such a prominent building. He added that the unveiling of the model in Houston was an example of how the regents' Facilities and Planning Committee exduded the School of Architecture. "I don't know what the logic behind it was, but it feels like we've all been avoided," he said. But Michael Warden, the UT System executive director for public affairs, called Alter's suggestion an "interesting con­ spiratorial theory," adding that meeting locations are rotated between system components and are planned far in advance of the agenda topics. Regental committee meetings and regular board meetings will not be held in Austin until May due to construction that will soon begin on the Ash Building, where the Regents meet for Austin meetings, he said Lighting the path to victory Texas Wranglers prepare pit stop for Longhorn fans By Ben Heath Daily Texan Staff Students traveling to Dallas Friday for Texas-OU weekend will have the opportunity to enjoy a short break from driving. The Texas Wranglers, a UT spirit and service organization, will be running a pit stop offering free food and bever­ ages to students and other travelers on their way to Dallas from noon to 5 p.m. Friday. "We look for events that we can do that benefit UT," said Texas Wrangler spokesman Dennis Roeser. "This is a way we saw to help UT students in the aspect of football." The pit stop will be set up at Exit 345 of 1-35 in Waco. The Wranglers will pro­ vide free food, soft drinks and music, as well as a chance for drivers to rest dur­ ing the four-hour drive. "The idea is to give people a place to pull over and stop to eat and drink," said Erik Bengtsson, a finance senior. "There's no alcohol ... We are trying to discourage drinking and driving." This will be the eighth year for the event. The pit stop started small in 1994, but has since grown to be a much larger event, said Roeser, a management infor­ mation systems senior. "[The Wranglers] saw a need for a pit stop because of a high rate of traffic accidents on the way to the OU game," Roeser said. "It started to promote traf­ fic safety. The first year we only had about 100 or 200 people, but we expect [around] 2,000 this year." 101X, an Austin radio station, has sponsored the pit stop for the past three years, providing music and giving away prizes. This year, there will be radio per­ sonalities making appearances at the pit stop. "We think that a large part of our audience are UT fans and students at UT," Tracy Walker, the 101X promotions director, said. "We want to show sup­ port for something we think our listen­ ers are definitely interested in." Hooters will be providing food, and Miller Light is providing prizes, soft drinks and portable restrooms. "The reason Miller Light is interested is because one of their [causes] is to remind people to think when they drink," Roeser said. "If we can get peo­ ple to pull over and eat some food and get some fluids in their system, then we've accomplished our main goal." Though the pit stop is coordinated by a UT student organization and is target­ ed at UT students, everyone is welcome, Roeser said. "We want people to stop in and have a good time," Bengtsson said. "This is a neat event to bring the UT community together."

The parade will begin at 8 p.m. at Kinsolving Dormitory, travel down Guadalupe Street., turn down 21st Street and conclude in front of the Main Building with a rally. The first torchlight parade was held in 1916. It was then held sporadically until 1941, when it became a weekly event before football games. Nowr, the parade only occurs before the Texas-OU game. This year, the rally is expected to draw more than 5,00(3 people because of an extensive adver­ tising campaign with Austin radio station KISS 96.7. A group of leaders representing more than 100 student organizations will lead the parade as they bear torches. I he event will aim to make the rally more interactive than it was last year, said Cliff Ashcroft-Smith, rallies director for the Texas Exes Student Chapter. "The team came out from the Tower last year," Ashcroft-Smith said. "There were a lot of students at the back of the crowd that said they w'ere not able to see the team at all." This year, the team will join the parade on the South Mall plaza and march with the crowd to Nathan Lambrecht /Daily Texan Staff Christian Simpson, a member of the Texas Cowboys, shouts “Texas fight” while walking down Guadalupe Street in last year’s Torchlight Parade. The annual parade is held to support the Longhorn football team in its battle against Oklahoma University Saturday in Dallas. the Main Building. The football team will be the sole focus of the rally, Ashcroft-Smith said. Johnny Blaze, a deejay for KISS 96.7, will emcee the rally. Even though he has only been in Austin for two years, Blaze said he knows how important Saturday's game is for Texas football fans. "One thing I'm a little worried about is I don't know any of the school songs, I went to the University of Arkansas," Blaze said. "I know this is one of the biggest games of the year. Hopefully a lot of people will come out there ready to rock." Alpha Phi Omega will unfurl the Texas flag from the top of the Main Building at the rally. The Texas flag is a special symbol for UT stu­ dents, said Lindsay Denman, vice president of APO. "We want to be there to bring up school spirit and get people excited about beating OU," Denman said. Mack Brown and several members of the UT football team are expected to speak at the rally tonight. "I'm hoping it will be the largest pep rally ever seen at this university," Ashcroft-Smith said. "Everyone has done a tremendous job and we expect a huge turnout."

Based on the results from a large study d o n e in the United States, fo r w om en w h o stop using DEPO -PR OVERA in order to becom e pregnant, t is expected that about half o f those w h o bec o m e pregnant wiH do so in about 10 m onths a fte r th e ir last injection; about tw o thirds o f those w h o becom e pregnant will do so in a b o u t 12 m onths; about 83% o f those w h o become pregnant w ill d o so in a bout IS months, arfo about 93% o t those w ho become nant w ill do so in a b o u t 18 m onths after their last injection T he length o f tim e you use 'EPO-PROVERA has no effect on how long it takes you to become pregnant after you stop using it W hat are the risks of using D E P O -PR O V E R A C o n trac ep tive Injection?

USA C B -7-S Pharmacia & Upjohn * Rylander proposes war relief package Package to provide tax breaks, health care, other benefits health-care benefits when called to active duty. Currently, state employees lo:ie health­ care coverage for themselves and their dependents when activated because they become federal employees and c an only receive health care coverage at military facil­ ities. Colonel Don Neal listens as Comptroller By Carl Hammerstrom Daily Texan Staff The Texas State Comptroller unveiled the Texas War Relief Package Wednesday, a pro­ posal to provide military families with tax breaks, state health-care coverage and other benefits. The package includes 20 initiatives that wall be implemented immediately and an additional 50 initiatives that will require leg­ islative approval. Comptroller Carolyn Keeton Rylander said she would outline the 50 initiatives over the next few weeks. "We owe it to those defending our country to provide the support they need," Rylander said. "Texas state government must tackle this historic task." It could take a special session to get the ini­ tiatives passed because Congress does not convene until 2003. "Gov. Perry has no plans to call a special session ... Rylander has a number of interest­ ing ideas, and [Gov. Perry] looks forward to hearing them in debate," said Perry spokes­ woman Kathy Walt. The package would allow sales tax exemp­ tions for the families of those in service, Rylander said. There may be property tax exemptions or deferrals as well, she added. The package would also allow state employees in the reserves to keep their "It's impractical to travel if you have a sickness," said Col. Don Neal of the ^ ir Force Reserves, who will be departi ng for Rammstein, Germany on Sunday. Initiatives that do not need legislative approval have already begun to become a reality, said Jennifer Rice, spokeswoman for the comptroller. The Comptroller's Office has also secured more than $30,000 for the Texas Tomorrow Fund, which will be used for four-year pub­ lic university scholarships. They w'ill be granted in the event that a child's parent is disabled or killed in the "war" against terror­ ism, Rice said. "Nothing is more important than educa­ tion," Rylander said. "If, God forbid, there are Texas children who lose a parent or whose parent is injured or disabled while defending our nation, the people of-Texas will be there to ensure their child's hip,her education." Another way to support the men and women called to active duty is to facilitate contact to their families back home, Rylander said. The Comptroller's Office will also obtiiin computers and Internet connections tor schools so children can stay in touch with their parents through e-mail. Deadline extension requested for new laser visas By Kate Gaither Daily Texan Staff • State Sen. Eddie Lucio, D-Brownsville, is asking President Bush to extend the Sept. 30, 2001 deadline for Mexican citizens to acquire newr laser visas, which will replace the current paper visas as the required local border crossing cards. The new visas will feature more complex security fea­ tures, such as a magnetic strip containing a digital version of the carrier's photograph, name and fingerprint. Mexican citizens may obtain one at the nearest American Consulate. Lucio, along with the Texas Border Infrastructure Coalition, wants the deadline extended a year to ensure that Mexican citizens who have yet to obtain the new visas wall not be turned away at the border. TBIC is an alliance of border communities that work to address pressures put on the border since the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect. "We need to show a little compassion and understand that there are hardships involved, because many people must travel more than 100 miles to the nearest American consulate [in order to apply for the visas], and they can cost as much as $45," said Ludo, who i¡s also the chairman of the Subcommittee on Border Affairs. "We are fadng a reces­ sion, and w'e cannot afford the lor>s of revenue from trade when Mexican dtizens are not allowed to cross the border." He said he believes that extending the deadline and con­ tinuing trade is vital to the econon iy. "Allowing old friends to come into this country is a part of returning to normalcy," he said. TBIC chairwoman Dolores Brior es agrees that extending the deadline would help border communities suffering from a downturn in trade since the Sept. 11 attacks. "The reality is: O ur economies are hurting," Briones said in a statement. "We need to act to improve security and commerce." The num ber of border crossings has significantly declined since Sept. 11 due to misinformation about border closings, border officials said. McAllen and El Paso have seen at least a 30-percent drop in border crossings. "The big problem is there has been a lot of false informa­ tion put out, both in the U.S. and Mexico, that the bndges are closed," said Mike Perez, McAllen City Manager. To correct this problem, TBIC wants Gov. Rick Perry to take out ads on Mexican television in which he speaks in Spanish to potential tourists, assuring them that the Texas- Mexico border remains open. "We need the governor and the secretary of state to help us on this, and we need their help now," Bnones said. Carole Keeton Rylander announces a Texas War Relief Package as part of her agency’s response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The package will attem pt to encourage aid for Texas fam ilies affected by the attacks. Addy Sam bam urthy/ Daily Texan S taff Austín-Bergstrom to resume curbside check-in Officials maintaining stricter security By Lauren Smith Daily Texan Staff The Federal Aviation Administration has approved curb- side check-in and passenger drop-off and pick-up at the curb to resume this morning at 5 a.m. at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Curbside check-in and the parking of unauthorized vehi­ cles within 300 feet of passenger terminals were banned by the FAA after the Sept. 11 attacks. Until today, airport visitors had to pick up and drop off passengers from the parking garage. Operations are still not entirely back to normal, officials said. Curb areas are monitored by traffic controllers who peer into cabs and watch for suspicious activity, just as they did before Sept. 11, said airport spokesman Jim Halbrook. But now, cars left unattended anywhere other than designated parking spots will be taken away by on-site tow trucks. "You w on't hear 'Please come back to the car' anymore," Halbrook added. "It will just be towed." Drivers will no longer be allowed to wait in the loading area for passengers to come out of the airport. People coming from the airport must be ready to immediately load their lug­ gage into the waiting vehicle. Also, unattended vehicles are still banned from the curbside area. "That means single occupancy vehicles w on't be able to use curbside check-in," Halbrook said. Ticket counter employee Moses Mansillas said he is looking forward to the resumption of curbside check-in. He and other workers have had to search bags at the counters since the attacks. "The computer spits out a name at random, and we search that bag," Mansillas said. Mansillas said he did not know whether ticket counter employees would continue with random searches after curb- side service was back, but he said he would welcome any security measures the airport decided to take. A flight attendant who washed not to be identified said she was not as enthusiastic about curbside check-in resuming again. "I thought they should have waited longer," she said. "You know how department stores limit their entrances to control who goes in and out. We should do the same." Still, the curbside check-in and availability of loading areas are welcome services to some airport visitors. Annie Nolan, who travels about five times per year, said she could not wait until her husband could go back to drop­ ping her off at the airport. "I know this isn't a time to be selfish, but it was a conven­ ience that many people had gotten used to," she said. "I think if we can return to normal as much as possible, we will all be better off." 8.4 a 02 ílH ■ -I :■ : www.kmxusa.com ON THE ROAD TO TEXAS-OU WEEKEND A guide to v í here to go, how much it’s going to cost and how long it will take to get there.

Both teams are ranked in the top five, and the rivalry has turned into what could be an elimi­ nation game for the national championship. That fact alone has driven this year's ticket sales to a new high. "This is the best that sales have ever been," Ticket City manager Rafael Rivas said. "They're far better than anything we have ever seen." With large profits looming, many students-tumed-scalpers head to Dallas for the Red River Shootout with one thing in mipd — money. For those who look to turn a $55 ticket into a small fortune, there is just one catch. In the city of Dallas, scalping is illegal on city property. "Scalping tickets on city property such as the Fair Grounds is punishable by a Class C misdemeanor," Dallas Police detec­ tive Judy Fries said. "That includes confiscating the tickets, taking the person into custody and a small fine." That fine could add up to much more than pocket change. Not including the loss of profits in ticket sales, fines could reach up to $500 for first-time offenders. Those who are caught again could face heftier fines and even jail time. According to Fries, scalpers usually keep their distance. "Most don't ever try to sell their tickets once they get into the fair," Fries said. "This is just one game a year, and most people plan in advance. They usually line up across the street with their tickets." For those students who are less daring, there are sever# loopholes in laws pertaining to scalping. The state of Texas has no law that makes it a crime to sell tickets for more than face value. In fact, each city in Texas mandates its ow n regu­ lations for scalping. This leaves plenty of room for profiting through private sales and online services. Many students have turned to Internet sites such as eBay for selling extra tickets they may have picked up through the student draw or general admission sales. "Last year I bought four extra tickets for the>&.&M game," Julie Jones, an undeclared junior said. "I Ijad^ly own ticket, so I sold the rest online." „ ^ *4 * Jones made over $400 from hér ticket sales on eBay and rec­ ommended the site, but noted that selling tickets online is risky. "You always have a chance of someone backing out," Jones said. "Plus, if you sell them right before the game, you might have to meet up with them to make the exchange." More personalized means of ticket sales have existed on a daily basis since the ticket office closed sales on the Red River Shootout nearly two weeks ago. Students who were able to get their hands on extra tickets offer them to friends or any­ one else who is paying, including ticket sales companies. "We don't buy as many student tickets," Rivas said. "But we do pay $75 for those tickets and turn them around for $125." Rivas said that Ticket City's profit expectations are an aver­ age of 35 percent, but noted that this year's game is different than any. other. "Beeaii$e both teams are ranked so high, everyone wants to see the gsTne," Rivas said. "That makes selling them easier." That--demand has caused a surge in both ticket sales and purchases. For students who sell their tickets privately, prof­ its are set at the student's discretion. In the case of Ticket City, everyone makes a profit. After purchasing general admission or selective seating tickets, the company can then sell them for anywhere from $250 to $475, depending on seat location. This leaves some students who had hopes of going to the game with little or no choice. "I really vvanted to go to this year's game," Lauren Wallace, a microbiology sophomore, said, "but the prices are so high. We pay for-go much at school, and then people try to rip you off by scalping their tickets. Itdoesn't seem fair."

T he Da iit T exan Sports Thursday October 4, 2001 No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners vs. No. 5 Texas Longhorns Saturday I 2:30 p.m. I Cotton Bowl I Dallas Longhorns look to get back at Sooners after 2 0 0 0 debacle By Bill Bredesen Daily Texan Staff f exas' offensive accomplishments this season have been like a methodical set of building blocks, one on top of the next. This Saturday, Oklahoma will provide a good checkpoint of where the Horns' stand. When the two teams face off against each other this weekend at the Red River Shootout in Dallas, a good deal will be at stake; will there be a repeat thumping by the Sooners or is Texas poised to make a legiti­ mate national title run? The Horns are keeping tight-lipped about their offensive game plan, but what is known is that Texas has put all the pieces in place to be successful against the defending champs. Texas quarterback Chris Simms, who will make his first start in the annual game, knows the Horns will need to be able to mix up their attack. "We need to be two-dimensional for sure," Simms said. "We need to be patient; this is going to be a tough game." Heading into this season, Texas offensive coordinator Greg Davis said the team has had a detailed plan for each game that was much more in- depth than in years past. In their first two games, the Horns were adamant about estab­ lishing a running attack. Though no one tailback immediately stepped forward from the committee of backs, Ivan Williams has proved a capable feature back in his last two outings, put­ ting together back-to-back 100-yard-plus games. "We wanted to run the ball better," Davis said of one of his pre­ season plans. "And so far, we've been able to do that. Ivan has established himself through the first four games as the main back out of the committee." Being able to control the clock, and therefore the time of possession, was a key to being successful down the road, Davis said. That holds true this weekend especially, as the Horns want to keep Nate Hybl and the Sooner's spread offense off the field as much as possible. Another of Davis' goals was for the Texas tight ends to see more action, something that has come to fruition. "We definitely wanted to get our tight end involved," Davis said. "The last two weeks, they've gotten 11 catches. We've accomplished some things we set out to accomplish leading into this ballgame." Davis added that tight end Bo Scaife has been key in terms of making defen­ sive backs play more cautiously. As a threat to run deep passing routes, Scaife makes opposing defensive backs more hesitant to commit to playing up close on run support. Davis pointed out that last season, on a Texas third-and-one, Oklahoma defen­ sive back Roy Williams made the stop because he was playing so close to the line, providing run support. Scaife will help alleviate some of the pressure in the box, but Davis added that the Sooners will be committed to slowing Texas' running game. "They are the epitome of outnumber the run," Davis said. "In the running game you've got to find a way to get somebody on those guys, and that's eas­ ier said than done." If the Horns decide to go to the air, they have a quarterback who has start­ ed each of Texas' four games this season. Simms now has the experience that critics in the past have said he lacked. He knows how to lead a ball club, and he has a loaded arsenal of weapons to throw to in addition to Scaife. "The receivers now obviously have a year under their belt," Davis said. "With the emergence of the tight end and receivers we're a little bit more complete in the way we can attack."

By John Dawson Daily Texan Staff For Ahmad Brooks, watching tele­ vision after OU's 63-14 blowout of Texas must have been like having a recurring nightmare. The reminders were everywhere, but he especially remembers the commercials. "I remember watching Sports Illustrated advertising for the spe­ cial OU football and the OU book after they won the 'national champi- n • onship," the sen­ io r safety said. ? T"And they were ' ^ turning that foot- ££fb all around and you could see the scores. I remem­ ber seeing 63-14 on there."

With -^matchup against Oklahoma since the * Sooners' 49-point victory only days away, Brooks doesn't seem angry. their "It's not about revenge, it's about respect," he said. "At this point, we'd feel really foolish if we came out wor­ rying more about revenge than a win." \ 3 * So close to Saturday's game, much of the team echoes Brooks' sentiment. ,* Rather than displaying their anger * in their words, some Texas players are trying to avoid the same mental pitfalls that befell them last year. But many are just trying to make it through Saturday without boiling over. Brooks spoke about how good Oklahoma is. "We got beat by a great football team last year," he said. "We're con­ vinced that the Oklahoma team this year is just as good as they were last year. And I think we're better too." Some teams probably lost respect for Texas after their 49-point loss, Brooks said, but that doesn't mean that Texas shouldn't try to turn the tables and blow out Oklahoma. "I don't care if we win by one, or if we win by 50," he said. "This is pos­ sibly the biggest game in college football this year, and to be focused on getting revenge instead of win­ ning the game would be stupid." "When you're in the spotlight, there are two things that you can do," Brooks said. "You can either perform or shy off. Last year we shied off." Senior linebacker D.D. Lewis points to the mental side of football as Texas' stumbling block last year. "W eiust weren't mentally ready to play. The coaches had the game plan, and they taught us well, but the play­ ers weren't ready to play," Lewis said. "We never want to experience something like that again. We have to answer to the challenge this time." Sm NIQHTMARE, Pag* 10 Horns not there yet Ihfavis Rfchmond Daily Texan Columnist What a difference a year doesn't make. This time last year, little was thought of Oklahoma. Texas play­ ers, coaches and fans alike all assumed the Horns would waltz into the Cotton Bowl and have their way with the inferior Sooners. Scenarios floated about how if Texas could just roll through its Big 12 schedule it could get back into the national title hunt despite an embarrassing loss to lowly Stanford in the second game of the season. This time around, the Sooners supposedly have lost much of what led them to a perfect record. There is no way the Oklahoma defense will be able to corral all of Texas' weapons. After all, Nate Hybl is no Josh Heupel, and Chns Simms is becoming the man who will lead the Horns back to the promised land — a journey that begins with payback for 63-14. As Lee Corso says, not so fast my friend. Explanation lacking No one has been able to explain what went wrong that cold, wet October day in 2000. Many have made attempts, but most are still bewildered as to why Oklahoma so savagely beat Texas. The fact that Mack Brown said he still doesn't know what hap­ pened is quite problematic for Texas' hopes. "I thought we'd win the game last year;" Brown said. "I didn't give them enough respect and I didn't realize we were struggling. That's where it comes back to me." As the game unfolded and Oklahoma running back Quentin Griffin continued to score touch­ downs, Brown searched for a rea­ son, a clue, anything to explain what was happening, from many a player on tne Texas sideline. "I asked them and I couldn't get any answers. No one would talk to me," Brown said. Had Brown found a player w illin g to look him in the eye, he still wouldn't have heard any­ thing but silence. His team was just as surprised, and a year later the best they have come up with was, "We weren't mentally pre­ pared." Tackle Mike Williams, die unof­ ficial spokesman of the Texas team, also thought Texas would emerge victorious last season as he does this year. "We have die same personnel, the same type of offense, but we've gone out and worked hard­ er," Williams said of the 12 months since. "We know what we can do. We have some confidence, and we have heart. That's what is going to make the difference." But Williams himself uninten­ tionally shed light on why work­ ing hard is not enough to close a ftaa RICHMOND, Pag* 10 Aalalwata aftar thoir fi'í-l i tm u n c in í of th e L IS last Nathan Lambrecht/Uaily lexan sian 10 Thursday, October 4, 2001 Trie D a il y T exa n QUICK HITS ■Saturday will be the 25th time that both teams have entered the game undefeated and the first time since the 14-7 OU victory inl985. •Oklahoma brings a 17-game winning streak to Dallas and will be trying to win back-to-back games against Texas for the first time since 1987 and 1988. •ESPN's College Game Day with Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso will broadcast live from the Cotton Bowl on Friday and Saturday.

"It's been a long year since this gam e, and the g u y s u n d e rsta n d th a t th e y 're going to have to play their best gam e if they w an t to have a chance to w in," Brown said. "O u r guys like big gam es." Sooners still better team RICHMOND, from 9 49-point gap. "Oklahoma two years ago was so close," Williams said, referring to Texas' 38-28 win in 1999, a game where the Sooners held a 17-0 lead. "They had it in their fingertips and lost. They went back, they worked hard, and you see the results." Had Texas lost by a couple of touchdowns, perhaps such hard work could sw ing the pen­ dulum to Texas' side. Overcoming seven touchdowns requires an entire new game plan. Same old song There are some differences in this year's Texas squad. The quarterback rotation is dead and gone, the best receivers on the team (Roy Williams and B.J. Johnson) are starters, and the defense is a year older. Yet m uch looks the same. The offense still runs first and passes when it has to. That wasn't the case against Texas Tech last week, and the H orns coasted to victor. But Brown and offensive coordinator Greg Davis have stressed that they plan to remain balanced ■and give Ivan Williams carries. That won't work against Rocky Calm us and the Oklahoma defense. An overtly aggressive approach of throw­ ing early, late and in-between w ould be a sig­ nificant change from a year ago. So would a willingness to blitz evérv play and make an unproven quarterback make plays. That would require Texas taking its chances with its secondary — one that claims to be one of the best in the country — against Oklahom a's receivers. Davis and defensive coordinator Carl Reese could adopt such high-risk, high- reward approaches. But Texas has done over four games this season to foreshadow such a change. There is the possibility that Texas could be saving all its good stuff for Oklahoma. To Texas fans, that is certainly a more heart­ warming thought than the chance that the Horns may have already shown their full hand. Imagine "Let's Make a Deal." There could be a shiny new Rolls Royce behind Curtain No. 1. Or there could be nothing. Despite losing H eupel and linebacker Torrance Marshall, the Sooners are proven. They're the defending national champions, winners of 17 games in a row, including a big game last week against Kansas State. Texas hasn't beaten anyone substantial. The Horns certainly could win this week­ end. It w ouldn't be that big of an upset, and they do have the weapons to score against Oklahoma. Texas players think they can beat the Sooners and prove to Corso and naysay- ers nationwide that they do in fact have heart. But Oklahoma knows it can beat Texas. It knows it can beat anyone. That's the m entali­ ty a team develops w hen it beats every team on its schedule. Simms, Williams and Johnson have all said how much they are looking forward to this game, and they should be. High-pressure games such as this will make them better. Oklahoma is a great team while Texas des­ perately w ants to become one. Soon they will be, but not at the expense of the Sooners this year. m >Mmmm wmMmmmtmmm m mm Only l e f t fo r no sitting fee* Tfexas Studart FtibUcaticns Building 25th & VhLtds Ab ., Rn. 3.302 Cactus Y E A R B O O K We know this is a year you are going to remember.

NFL bargains with auto dealers for Super Bowl NEW YORK — The Super Bowl will be pushed back a week and played Feb. 3 in New Orleans, allow­ ing the NFL to complete its season without altering its playoff format. The NFL switched its original date of Jan. 27 with the National Association of Automobile Dealers and paid the group $7.5 million to ! cover the costs of rescheduling its convention. The need to swrap dates was caused when the NFL postponed its second w'eek of games after the ter­ rorist attacks of Sept. 11. The agreement means that the NFL's regular season w ill end Jan. 5- 6 with the games that should have been played in wreek two, Sept. 16-17. The wild-card round will be played Jan. 12-13, the divisional play­ offs Jan. 19-20, and the conference championsJiips Jan. 27, the original date of the Super Bowl.

I g if'* - " . ™ “ W m á I ‘ ir i ' Texan fans cheer as 0U fans sneer at the annual game in 1998. The rivalry has become particularly heated in recent years as both teams joined the Big 12 conference. Daily Texan file photo Rivalry with OU dates hack to 1900s By Natalie England Daily Texan Staff When the Texas-OU rivalry started in 1900, the Longhorns were not yet called the Longhorns, and the Sooners were known as the Rough Riders. Time has changed both teams over the century, but the Texas-OU game boasts history and tradition unlike any other. Beginning in 1929, the Texas-OU game was played during the Texas State Fair at Fair Park Stadium, a rickety wooden struc­ ture. In 1937, the game moved to the newly fashioned Cotton Bowl, named after the lush cotton industry in and around the city of Dallas. The game has sold out every year except in 1945, and its first television broadcast came in 1952. During its 100-year history, the teams have played 95 times, with Texas leading the series 55-35 with five ties. Either Texas or OU have entered the game ranked No. 1 in the nation ten times in the game's his­ tory. In recent vears, the Texas-OU rivalry has received a new breath of life as both teams are members of the Big 12 and compete for the conference crown. Both Oklahoma and Texas endured dis­ mal seasons during the early 1990s, but Bob Stoops and Mack Brown have revital­ ized the formerly lackluster teams, exciting the rivalry'. Saturday's matchup will only be the second time both teams have entered the games with a top-15 ranking since No 1. Texas and No. 3 Oklahoma faced off in 1984. In 1987, then-OU head coach Barry Switzer proposed the game be moved to the teams' home stadiums, alternating between the schools each year. The con­ tract with the Cotton Bowl ended in 1988, and Switzer argued that the game would provide a much-needed economic boost for Norman, Okla. Yet many fans protested the idea, citing that the tradition of the "neutral" site in Dallas should take prece­ dence over economic matters. Tradition prevailed. The future of the Red River Shootout has never looked brighter. Two teams vying for a national championship have piqued faja interest, and corporate sponsorship has eased financial burdens.

Those left behind will have to find alterna­ tive m eans to w atch the Longhorns. For many, that m eans w atching it on television. For oth­ ers, it m eans not follow ing the game at all. "I'm just going to be here in Austin," said Katie Derx, an undeclared liberal arts sopho­ more. "All of my room m ates are going home, so I'm going to have a p arty or som ething." For m any UT students, work and school conflicts have m ade going to Dallas this w eek­ end impossible. Some said they're just going to play it by ear and hope that this w eekend is a m enjorable one. "I d o n 't have any plans in particular, I'm probably just going to w atch it on TV," said Joe Johnson, an undeclared sophom ore. Going to friends' houses to crash for the w eekend has also become a Texas-OU w eek­ end pastim e. "My room m ate lives in Dallas, so w e're just going to go there and party at his house," said A ndrew Horace, a m icrobiology sophom ore. But there are some for whom taking in the game is not necessarily p art of the Texas-OU experience. Ben Tem charoen, a m echanical engineering sophom ore, is going to Dallas even if he do esn 't have a way inside the Cotton Bowl. "I'm going to Dallas to su pport the team and ticket," I d o n 't have a tailg ate because Temcharoen said. O thers just sim ply d o n 't w ant to attend the game. "I'm not that upset about going because I went last year, and we lost bad, so I d o n 't real­ the hassle," said ly w an t to go th ro u g h A ndrew Williams, a sociology junior. "I'm just going to party in A ustin and have a good time." W hatever the reason for not going to the m om entous game, som e fans say staying in A ustin fo? the game d o esn 't necessarily g u ar­ antee a wasted w eekend. Several sports bars and restaurants in the A ustin area will be show ing the game on big-screen televisions while serving food and drinks to com plem ent the game. re cru itin g 7 9 0 - Part tim e A U S T IN -O W N E D TICKET b ro k e ra g e is ticket-buying agents.

That is, for those who are willing to listen. On their second album, Eternally Hard, this message is expressed through a variety of styles of music, producing similar ideas that at times can compromise their skill. Bitch and Animal are not unaccom­ plished musicians trying to spread their beliefs without any knowledge of composition. They have talent. In fact, Bitch was classically trained. And both band members pick up a number of instruments throughout the album including the fiddle, bass, djembe, ukulele, marimba and steel drum, which gives Eternally Ijard an engross­ ing amount of depth to its musical repertoire. Some of the best tracks on the album, such as 'Traffic" and "Boy Girl revolve around Bitch's Wonder," beautiful voice. It sounds a lot like Joni Mitchell's, ranging from -passionately delivered ballads funk-driven screams, encapsulating a convincing sense of fervor to her writing. to Other tracks, such as "Best Cock On the Block" and "Scrap Metal," are upbeat, percussion and spoken-word songs that don't work as well on the album. All of the spoken word tracks stem from some kind of anger that Bitch needs to express, and all of the slower tunes gyrate around* dejection and regret. Thus, the album becomes one-dimensional and repetitive. Toward the end of Eternally Hard, the focus that was so prevalent throughout most of the album gets distracted, and a few tracks neglect the need to be preachy or unsurprising. "33 Zen Lane" is a fitting example, as it echoes the sardonic voice of Bitch and Animal about the deceit involved in most people's good intentions. It is another pessimistic observation, but its resonance is easier to embrace. You don't feel as if this radical interest group is branding your train of thought. Bitch and Animal are certainly capa­ ble of turning some heads through their music, but only if you have the patience to endure what is really arousing Eternally Hard. — Michael Winningham Bitch and Animal will open for Ani DiFranco tonight at The Backyard. IDENTITY CRISIS a r t is t Thrice la b e l Hopeless Records There are ¿in astounding number of bands cropping up that tag them­ selves as "melodic hardcore." After lis­ tening to them, you find out that "hard-core" is describing your hatred for them, and they are horrifyingly short of "melodic." Identity Crisis by Orange County band Thrice takes th at tag and rede­ fines it. Their formula seems simple enough — catchy riffs and solid punk drumming. But the melodies that are em bedded within the songs and the singer's plaintive screams that differentiate this from every other hard-core band. it's Identity Crisis begins with the rous­ ing title track, featuring singer/gui­ tarist Dustin Kensrue's aching vocals, and the other thing the tt distinguishes Thrice from others in their genre — their wordy songs actu ally say some­ thing. For example, they greet you with "Image marred by self-infliction, private wars on my soul waged / Heart is scarred by dual volition/Juxtaposed and both engaged." T hrice's lyrical vocabulary' destroys punk rock stereo­ types as the band surely makes use of a good thesaurus when composing. "As the Ruin Falls" is based on a C.S. Lewis poem. Later on, Thrice shows off their pop-pu t ik and punk rock tendencies with sor gs like "Ultra Blue" and "Under Pair." The high point of the album falls within "A Torch to End All" and i(:s soft instru­ mental predecessor "T h e Next Day." Gripping guitar lines frame this mas­ terpiece that reflects years of toiling within the scene. Simply put, it ren­ ders you stunned at the evolution of hard-core. Thrice isn't without an Achilles' heel, though. The drum be ats are often repetitive and they suffer ;rom a com­ mon melodic hardcore syndrome. • This common distraction occurs on too many of the record's songs, and it usually sounds like this: Slow, almost improvisational guitar-plucking that swells into a wall of noisy crunch. There's a lot of it on Identity Crisis, and as expected, too much of any rock meandering is not a good thing. Their instrumentation isn't as intri­ cate as others in the genre, either. But aside from that, Thrice nails what oth­ ers have been flailing around with in their imitations. — St m ill Parker TONIGHT AND FOREVER artist Sensefield label Nettwerk Records ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ *On their latest release, Tonight and Forever, the members of Sensefield seem to be pausing for a glance at their life before moving forward. The music is no exception. Sensefield has long been recognized for its/cross- pollination of raw punk energy and conventional rock layout. Tonight and Forever reveals a deeper sense of pas­ sion and delicate crafting than previous albums. It takes the band to a new dimension, adding layers of acoustic guitars and infectious guitar lines that lift the listener through a variety of emotional joyrides. Songs like "Waiting for Something" and "Are You Okay" highlight a tech­ nique Sensefield incorporates that so many of their melodic hardcore coun­ terparts have overlooked — dynamic contrast. A few measures of thick, pow­ erful guitar crunch quickly cease to the soft voice of Bunch accompanied by only the timid ring of an acoustic gui­ tar. This swift shift in volume is direct evidence of just how much Sensefield has matured since their last album, Building. Throughout the album, the listener finds evidence of low self-esteem, long­ ing for the past and settling for con­ venient love. "I want to learn how you save yourself for someone who could love you for you/So many times we just give it away to someone who couldn't your name /And for a moment, you felt important, but not in your heart/' Bunch sings on "Save Yourself." remember even Sensefield could easily be thrown into a group of unoriginal emocore lookalikes, following the lead of Jimmy Eat World and Mineral. Tonight and Forever, however, has a sense of charac­ ter and intelligence about it that looking back, proves they've already moved forward into a new direction. that w'hile —Jeffrey Walker TEACH ENGLISH IN JAPAN! • No teaching experience or Jap a n ese skills necessary. • • Must b e a U.S. citizen and hold a b a ch elo r’s degree (by June 3 0 ,2 0 0 2 ) in order to apply. • Annual salary around $ 3 5 ,0 0 0 (tax free).

The director, Guy Roberts, has been directing award-nominated plays in Austin for years. Roberts has done Macbeth, which earned best director and best drama nominations from the B. Iden Payne awards and from the Austin Critic's Table. The Table also nominated his Taming o f the Shrew for best director and best come­ dy. This man knows theater and he knows how to direct Shakespeare. all had Most importantly his actors know how to play Shakespeare. Four of the actors in this production have recently been listed in the Austin Chronicle's list of the top 40 actors and actresses currently working in Austin, and they have experience with Shakespearean verse. Everything should fall into place. It should be a production that is exceptional and easy because of all the talent. But for all the accolades earned by cast and crew over the years, this production of Hamlet is not as good as it should be. What defines this production of Hamlet from all the other produc­ tions? Roberts is asked this question in the program, and his answer speaks volumes. He says, "I don't know." He then goes on to say that it will be different for everyone, etc. But this is not good enough. "I don't know." He's basically telling people they can stay home, watch a film version of Hamlet and have a better time. If the director does not have a clear idea in his head about what he wants to do with the play, then the actors won't be sure. And that means the audience will not be sure, either. It comes across very clearly in this production that Roberts does not know what he is trying to do. The per­ formance is muddy and too often relies on melodrama or emotional bluster instead of real emotions and truth. The actors wade through their lines obviously not sure of all the meanings of the speech. Speaking it Shakespeare requires work. But when you do it right, the emotion follows. Very sim­ ply, many of these actors have not spent enough time actually looking at the words. is difficult, and Barbara Chisholm, who plays Gertrude, demonstrates none of the supposed talent that earned her a spot on the Chronicle top 4Ü list. Her char­ acter would be more at home playing a Tennessee Williams witch than Hamlet's confused mother. Scott Tuesday-Saturday T H E H H I Daigle, as Laertes, decides it would be better to yell than act. Brooke Parker, as Ophelia, decides it would be better to whine than act. Roberts and his cast seem to have decided that acting is ' not as important as being dramatic. The stage pictures are overdramatic and are made worse by incredibly generic music in the background of the court scenes. All the major confrontations in the play are muddied and resort to slop­ py, angry actions in an attempt to be emotional. Hamlet and Ophelia's con­ frontation (the "get thee to a nunnery" scene) has the actors flopping about the stage like fish reeled onto the deck of a boat in the middle of a hurricane. Their movements are not choreo­ graphed and seem unnecessary The choreography is especially in the sword fight betw'een bad Hamlet and Laertes that ends the play. Roberts choreographs the fight himself, and you can tell he really wants it to be cool and exciting. But it is not. Helen Merino (as Hamlet) and Daigle move around the stage in what is practically slow motion and telegraph the next move years before it is necessary. The swordplay is fails ambitious but ultimately because of its ambition. Failed ambition is, unfortunately, characteristic of the entire production. Everyone aims high, but most people don't make it. One notable exception is the grave digger (played by Lowell Bartholomee), who gives the best overall performance of the production. Merino is sometimes brilliant in the title role, but she is too often paired on stage with someone she cannot play off of. The production soars when she is left alone on the stage and -can take full control. Her speech devising the trap of Claudius after the players arrive is one of the best moments in the play, because it is just her. When there is someone on stage, Merino seems to be acting down to the other actor's level — which is often far below hers. This starts early with Hamlet's first soliloquy. Horatio is inexplicably onstage for the "O that this too too solid flesh would m elt..." soliloquy. Merino delivers it to him instead of to the audience, and the power of one of the greatest speeches in lost. Another problem with this scene is that this soliloquy is no longer the "O that this too too solid flesh would m elt..." soliloquy, because they cut the first three lines of it. The speech starts later than it should, which is the English language trend is very jarring when you expect to hear the whole thing. This would almost be as bad as skipping the first few lines of "To be or not to b e..." Why did Roberts do this? Why did he cut out the entire Fortinbras subplot? Why did he move the "To be or not to b e..." soliloquy two acts later in the play than when it normally is? To quote the director, "I don't know." When you change the most famous piece of liter­ ature in the English language, you should have a reason. I don't see a method to Robert's madness. Another questionable decision that is ultimately very symbolic of our interaction with the performance is the decision to make Horatio (Ben Wolfe) disabled. Horatio is either in a wheelchair or limping around noisily with a cane. Ben Wolfe is not disabled — why is Horatio? Maybe the deci­ sion was made because most of his lines are cut, therefore something must be done to make Horatio a char­ acter. But this is an unfortunate deci­ sion. Horatio is our connection with Hamlet himself. The audience and Horatio are the only other people who know what is going on. Horatio and the audience know about the ghost before Hamlet does. Horatio and the audience know Claudius killed Hamlet's father before anyone else does. Horatio goes on to tell the story that we just saw. If Horatio is at the same time our con­ nection with Hamlet and symbolic of the audience on stage, then it's a bad decision to cripple him. It cripples the audience. This decision moves us far­ ther away from Hamlet and from the production as a whole. Is it possible for us to be fully engaged when our ambassador is held back? You know Hamlet. The journey is familiar. It feels so close, and yet none of us are — or ever will be — Hamlet. We may understand, but we do not know. A great production of Hamlet reminds us how similar wre are and how far away from us he is. The Austin Shakespeare Festival produc­ tion in Zilker Park comes close to stir­ ring these emotions, but not close enough. Stay home and watch Kenneth Branagh, or even Mel Gibson. Hopefully, Helen Merino will get another chance with the character; she deserves it. And, unfortunately for her, this production does not live up to its own potential.

It's only one of the shows you can catch this weekend if you're one of the many trekking three hours north for the Texas-OU game. single, Don't want to actually watch the game and looking for something else to do? Have too much time to kill in Dallas? Well, you've come to the right place. Aside from Jay-Z's show on Friday night, many top acts will be in town. There's something for everyone. Even if your car breaks down on the way there, Pat Green will play the Heart O' Texas Fair on Saturday in Waco ... Traffic permit­ ting, getting into Dallas on Friday night will be wise as your options also include Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash at the Boar's Nest. This once-indie country-rock outfit has hit a bit of the mainstream with national tour spots and some coverage on CMT ... Blue October, the San Marcos-based favorite that you need to see live if you haven't already, is scheduled to play Club Clearview Friday night. People compare them to The Dave Matthews Band, but loyal fans - which Austin has plenty of — will be quick to point out how much better Blue October can be ... If you missed them last night, you can see Nickelback perform at the Canyon Club in Dallas with Default and Seven Channels. This is all reason enough to save some time and show up early Friday — you know you're going to skip class anyway. Before taking on Stubb's Wednesday, Nickelback stopped by Tower Records on Guadalupe for a very brief in-store performance and auto- graph-signing. The band, riding a successful wave of airplay with the single "How You Remind Me," is seeing some of its biggest crowds ever these days. This included the Tower turnout, which made the record store's Wednesday afternoon occupancy skyrocket. The foursome only performed two songs, but they were also their two hits: the current single and their first hit, "Leader of Men." Their Austin date was originally set for The Metro but moved to the more spa­ cious Stubb's after promoters saw just how hot this band is getting ... If you're hitting Dallas just to soak up the party and need something to do while the game festivities rage on, the Pledge of Allegiance Tour will make a stop Saturday night at Reunion Arena.

Then, if the hangover of Saturday keeps you in Dallas longer than you expect­ ed, alt-rockers Lifehouse and Michelle Branch will play the State Fair of Texas on Sunday. Rock on responsibly ... Tuesday night in Austin found west down­ town hosting not one, but two fun parties. Kenichi was the place to be for Jimmie Vaughan's CD release party. The blues legend was at the private shindig to celebrate his new album, Do You Get The Blues? Party guests dined on spring rolls and sashimi while the sounds of the new record filled the speakers of the restaurant. Meanwhile, Vaughan ^igned autographs in a comer, looking as gra­ cious and kind as he's ever been ... Who would have guessed that only a block or two away, E! would set up shop at Speakeasy to film a segment for their popu­ lar Wild On series. No Brooke Burke, though, but still a nice time that filled the bar's won­ derful rooftop setting. In a short period of time — the space was so crowded — a line to enter began forming. This high traffic was surely inspired not just by E!, but also by the presence of Playboy. The magazine was in town this week for Austin recruitment. And by the look of the crowds at Speakeasy, it seemed as though more single guys were aware of this than single women. The ratio of guys to girls was about 15-to-l. Speakeasy's comfortable surroundings made do with the flood of partygoers and corny pickup artists. Such winning lines overheard at the Playboy soiree included: "Hey man, I'm not done looking yet!" and "I just finished making an independent film in Prague" ... For those Austinites staying in town this weekend, don't fret, there's still plenty of musical entertainment.

He'll also play Monday and Tuesday night if you can't get into this weekend's gig ... Saturday, The National Hispanic Institute will host the Loma Linda Latin Music Fest. The Institute is located in near­ by Maxwell, Texas, and interested parties should call 1-866-NHI-FEST tfor more infor­ mation. Bands participating include Ozomatli, Los Mocosos and La Tribu. Marty Aguayo, Associate Director of Public Affairs for the Institute, said in a statement, "Each of these groups brings tl leir own inter­ pretation of Latin music, and that's exactly what people want to hear — - a blend, you know, variety." Plus, a portion of the proceeds will be given to the American Red Cross ... Late Saturday night, you'll be a fool to miss the annual Airport Festival. G Dordinated every year by local electronic promo ter Noah Ark, i f s known for showcasing a bevy of dance, trance, hip-hop and just straight-up fun talent. This year's show is ready to roll with a bill that includes Richie Hawtin (a.k .a. Plastikman), Blackalicious, Pete Tong, Jos h Wink and too many more to mention. To avoid parking nightmares, shuttle buses will take audiences to the venue — the 30-acre Mead owlands — from the State Parking Garages (l!5th Street and San Jacinto Boulevard). Visit urww.ark-entertainment.com for more information. Proceeds for this show will benefit the American Red Cross and ACLU ... Another great live music tradition returns Sunday at Auditorium Shores, the annual blues festival headlined by the one-and-only B.B. King. The blues giant still tours harder than many newcomers, and he's always wowing the hard-to-please local blues scene. Joining him on this year's bill is the afore­ mentioned Jimmie Vaughan, Buddy Guy, John Hiatt and more ... The aforementioned funk, hip-hop and jazz outfit Ozomatli is scheduled to play Stubb's on Sunday, but the fun doesn't end there. The band will also make an appearance at The Texas Union on Monday at 2 p.m. for a meet- and-greet. They'd be happy to meet and greet you. Go Horns. Have a band? Have a club? Have a scoop?

The original headline read “Almost the worst: Horns flounder in their worst loss against the Sooners since 1908." By Paul J. Weber Daily Texan Staff DALLAS — As a steady rain fell through the first half, a poncho-clad crowd m ade it difficult to recognize the usu­ ally distinctive divide of Texas and Oklahom a fans at the Cotton Bowl. But by the third quarter, the two halves of the stadium became much more distinct. There was the rowdy mass of Sooners who stayed to enjoy the mauling and the thinning crowd of disgusted Longhorns heading toward the exit. For those Texas fans who left early, they m ight have made the smartest decision of anyone wearing burnt orange at the 95th annual Red River Shootout. thrashing at After the Horns' hum iliat­ ing 63-14 the hands of arch-rival and key Big 12 opponent Oklahoma, neither a remorseful Mack Brown nor any of his players admitted to doing one funda- mental thing correct Saturday in front of what started as a sellout crowd of 75,587. The em barrassing defeat exposed Texas' glaring short­ comings and left the Horns (3- 2, 1-1 Big 12) searching for answers m idway through a season, which began with title now-deflated national aspirations. team "It's frustrating if you play any this poorlv. It's embarrassing to me; it's just frustrating. I did a poor job," said Brown, who repeatedly blamed himself for the crush­ ing setback. "It's one you'll never forget your whole life as a coach, and I doubt our play­ ers will ever forget it." Brown.was especially apolo­ getic to the team's seniors fol­ lowing the game, who lost to Oklahoma for the first time in their careers at Texas, after handily beating OU the past three seasons.

The Horns' once-solid defense that entered the game ranked 10th in the nation looked utter­ ly confused and helpless agairfst the frantic passing attack of Josh Heupel and the Oklahom a offense, which effortlessly for 289 yards on a Texas secondary that spent most of the game turned around and catching up to Sooner receivers. threw Texas didn't fare much bet­ ter in plugging the run, either. A virtually nameless Quentin Griffin became a star against the Horns' frail run defense, setting a Cotton Bowl record with six rushing touchdowns. By the time the final cannon sounded, Texas had allowed more points Saturday than it had in its four previous games combined. "They whipped us up front, whipped us at the linebacker level and whipped us in the secondary," Texas defensive coordinator Carl Reese said. "You can talk about players and this and that all you want, but we just got whipped." For several Texas players, the loss triggered memories of 1997's 66-3 rout at the hands of at Royal-Memorial UCLA Stadium, the second-worst loss in school history.

[ here was a final grieving for Cole Pittman oja the field before Texas faced North Carolina. On Feb. 26, the Longhorn defensive end tragically died in a one-car accident near Easterly as he returned to Austin to begin spring football practice. First Marcus Tubbs, then Chance Mock, Pittman's closest friend on the football team, separated from their teamm ates to hug Marc Pittman, Cole's father, as he walked onto the field during the pregame ceremonv. Then, the Longhorns trotted off the field to make final preparations for their matchup against the Tar Heels. Before entering the tunnel, som e players stooped down to touch the painted emblem of Pittman's initials painted onto a black field of grass. But when they left the field for good at the close of the game, they honored Pittman's memory with a tribute more precious or lasting than a commemorative jersey, a painted em blem or the game ball. The I onghoms took a knee to end their scoring at 44 points — the very same number Cole Pittman wore as a member of the team. Fhis university has stolen our hearts, Marc Pittman said after the game. “This is the greatest honor humanly possible to honor our son. rhat's iiist an unbelievable thing." The moment spilled over into the first quarter of the game, too. On North C arolina's second drive, iefensive end Cory Redding, who served as a pallbearer in Pittman's funeral, intercepted a Ronald Curry pass and returned it 22 yards and som ersaulted over Curry for the touchdown. One series later, Nathan Vasher returned a punt to the 5-vard line to -et up a Chris Simms touchdown on > quarterback sneak. Simms was also a pallbearer. But the mom ent faded as the Longhorns' sprint toward an emo- ti 'nal blowout slowed to á trot. It was an emotional dav, more 'tit 'nal than anv of us could have ¡m. gmed Brown said. "We jumped >uf to a 14-point lead, but probably Running back Brett Robin scored Texas’ final touchdown in the Horns’ 44-14 win over North Carolina. The final score was significant as the gam e was dedicated to Cole Pittman, who wore No 44. Pittman was killed in a car crash last spring. Andrew Loehman/Daily Texan Staff went to sleep for a little while." The No. 5 Longhorns began and finished the Sept. 8 game strong, posting a 44-14 victory over North Carolina. The Tar Heels tied the game in the second quarter, but Texas scored 30 unanswered points, often set up by punt returner Nathan Vasher, who set a school record with 153 yards on returns. The Texas offense accounted for only three touchdowns on what admittedly was a cautious plan-of- attack. Simms finished the day com­ pleting 17 of 35 passes for 167 yards, while Ivan Williams led all rushers with 75 yards. "We were conservative in our approach, and we may have been too conservative," Texas offensive coor­ dinator Greg Davis said. "But we didn't want to line up in a five-wide formation and let Julius Peppers get into a pass-rush mg rhythm." In that respect, Texas was success­ ful. All-Am erican defensive end Peppers finished the game with onlv a slight effect. He recorded no tackles and no sacks. Texas guard Robbie Doane was assigned to block Peppers through­ out the game, and, with the help of other Texas players, held the Tar Heels at bay. "I asked Robbie after the game in the hall howT he thought he did," Davis said. "H e said, 'Pretty good, coach.' He must have, because Julius didn't take over." While Peppers flopped, Texas freshman linebacker Derrick Johnson excelled, leading the Longhorns with seven tackles and two sacks. Though Texas had built a 14-0 lead, Curry, the elusive North Carolina quarterback, led the Tar Heels on a 77-yard touchdown to cut the Longhorns' lead to seven. A Nathan Vasher fumble on a punt set up North Carolina's tying touch­ down in the second quarter. Texas kept Curry in check for the rest of the game. The senior quarterback was replaced by Darian Durant in the fourth quarter. After three Dusty Mangum field goals, a Cedric Benson touchdown and a safety on a sack by Maurice Gordon, Vasher redeemed himself with a 44-yard punt return for a touchdown to extend Texas' lead to 38-14. "I wanted to be very aggressive, and the team got everyone blocked," Vasher said. "I just had to make one person miss." With 36 seconds left in the game, Brett Robin scored on a 12-yard run, advancing Texas score to 44 points. It was then that Chance Mock approached Mack Brown and asked him to kneel the ball, freezing Texas' score at 44 points — Pittman's number. "The players all rallied around Chance, and they all came to me and told me to kneel the ball," Brown said. "I think it's a great tribute to those kids for thinking of that." It was a day of joy: remembered in a ceremony, celebrated with a win and commemorated by a score. By John Dawson Daily Texan Staff A Texas victory over New Mexico State Sept. 1 was never in doubt. With that resolved, Texas head coach Mack Brown said the Longhorns focused on establishing a running attack that was sorely missed in the early portion of last year. "I didn't care how good it looked to throw, I didn't care what the score was we were going to win the game," Brown said. "That was obvious. I told our offensive staff, 'I don't care how many they have up there, I want you to run the ball.' And we only ran three [different] running plays." Powered by 64 rushing yards each from Ivan Williams and true-freshman Cedric Benson and a two-touchdown performance by quarterback Chris Simms Texas defeated New Mexico State, 41-7. Admittedly conservative, the Texas offense looked first to establish a running game instead of going to a deep passing attack. Texas' keep-it-simple rushing attack accounted for 171 yards of rushing, more than twice the amount they gained on the ground in the 2000 opener against Louisiana-Lafayette. "We could have lined up and scored a bunch of points like we did against Louisiana-Lafayette," said Brown referring to the 2000 season opener when Texas defeated the Ragin' Cajuns, 52-10. "They just weren't going to cover our receivers." Though the Longhorn offense scored four touchdowns, the special teams unit got Texas on the board first. On New Mexico State's first offensive possession, Texas reserve receiver Tony Jeffery blocked the Aggies' punt attempt that was recovered in the end zone by Phillip Geiggar for a touchdown. In the waning minutes of the first half, after an Ivan Wiliams' touchdown run and kicker Dusty Mangum's first collegiate field goal, Texas went to a five- wide receiver set. Simms completed six passes on the drive before finding seldom-used receiv­ er Montrell Flowers alone in the end zone for the 9-yard touchdown pass. Simms finished the game 17-of-33 for 182 yards and no interceptions. Flowers caught a second touchdown pass from Simms later in the fourth quarter. On Sept. 1, the senior wide receiver matched his touchdown total for the 2000 season. "I'm only going to get a few chances, so I'm going to have to take advantage of them," Rowers said. "Hopefully, the young receivers are going to try and out do me." Sophomore Roy Williams led all Texas receivers with five catches for 70 yards while B.J. Johnson added four catches for 32. Nine different Longhorns caught passes. The Longhorns' defense held the much-heralded New Mexico State rushing attack virtually in check, allowing only 45 rushing yards in the first half. Speedy linebackers Everick Rawls and Tyronne Jones diffused the Aggies' option attack while defensive linemen Kalen Thornton and Maurice Gordon combined for two sacks. "I thought we'd see all phases of the option," said Texas defensive coordina­ tor Carl Reese, who was surprised by the Aggies' reluctance to use as many triple-option runs and play action passes as they have in the past. "They ran it early but we defended it well. They didn't throw as much as we thought either." New Mexico's K.C. Enzminger completed only eight passes for 63 yards, but he often shied away from throwing near comerback Quentin Jammer. The senior comerback dedicated himself to not allowing opposing wide receivers to gain more than 50 yards of receiving when he's playing man-to- man defense. It's an attainable goal he said. Jammer had one pass caught on him for 9 yards in the first half, but he said that it was in zone coverage. yards," he said. "I don't count zone coverage.

With a rematch against Oklahoma looming on the schedule, Brown feared his team would look past Saturday's game against Texas Tech. "I was sitting watching the ball games, and every time ABC came on after the 11 a.m. game, they're talking about the Texas-OU game," Brown said. "I thought, 'Gosh, I hope our guys aren't watching the game today.' We were real­ ly trying to foals on the game this week." Instead of looking ahead to OU, the Longhorns scored touchdowns on their first three drives and put the game away early, something they hadn't accom­ plished in any of their first three games. The 42-7 victory marked the first time since 1983 that Texas began its season with four victories. Texas quarterback Chris Simms completed 21-of-26 passes for 224 yards, while Ivan Williams added 152 rushing yards. Simms found Roy Williams 10 times for 98 yards, including five times for 49 yards on the opening touchdown drive. The Longhorns showcased their new 3-4 defense, held Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury to mostly short passes and kept running back Ricky Williams virtu­ ally in check. Linebackers Derrick Johnson and D.D. Lewis led Texas with nine tackles each. "I'm really pleased as hard as this week was with most people looking for­ ward to [OU]," Brown said. "From a coaching standpoint, you never work out all the kinks, but I think this is probably where we needed to be going into next week." Simms started the game by completing 10 consecutive passes, breaking Major Applewhite's school record of nine. Simms completed his last pass attempt in Texas' victory over Houston to set the mark at 11 straight completions. "Chris's best game is yet to come," Texas offensive coordinator Greg Davis said. "He gets better each week, and he's playing within himself." Simms' first incompletion came in the second quarter on a Bo Scaife drop. "I'll have to get on Bo about that," quipped Simms, who rated his perform­ ance as "OK." Scaife, though, redeemed himself with five receptions for 64 yards. After Texas built a 14-0 first-quarter lead on rushing touchdowns by Ivan Williams and Simms, the Red Raiders struck in the second quarter to cut the lead to seven. On a fourth-down gamble, Texas Tech coach Mike Leach called a draw to run­ ning back Ricky Williams, who scampered nearly untouched on a draw for a 31- yard touchdown run. Three offensive plays later, Simms countered by finding Roy Wiliams open in the middle of the field. The sophomore wide receiver then side-stepped defenders and scored on a 40-yard touchdown reception. Just like the first half, Texas scored touchdowns on their two first drives of the second half. Reserve running back Victor Ike scored Texas final touchdown with four minutes left in the game. The Texas secondary and its newly introduced 3-4 defense nearly neutralized the Red Raiders high-percentage passing attack. Though Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury completed 40-of-57 passes, he only averaged 6.5 yards per comple­ tion. "We did a great job keeping them underneath, and those were like runs," said Brown of Tech's short passing game. "I thought that we didn't tackle well against Houston and that was something we wanted to do against Tech," Texas safety Nathan Vasher said. "They throw so many short passes. If you don't tackle those guys, they're great athletes and can make things happen." As Texas' lead increased, Leach elected to attempt fourth-down conversions severr times, including a fake punt attempt in the third quarter, where punt returner Nathan Vasher crushed Tech receiver Carlos Francis as he attempted to catch punter Clinton Greathouse's pass. "I felt good about it because I was beat on the play," Texas comerback Quentin Jammer said. "Nate came out of nowhere and popped him." Cougars corralled First road game poses no trouble for Horns as Houston falls 53-26 By BIN Bredesen Daily Texan Staff HOUSTON — The game might not have been the prettiest thing Texas fans have ever seen, but in the end, a 53-26 win over Houston on Sept. 29 was all that mattered. The Horns didn't quite dominate the contest like it appeared they could have — Houston led the game late in the second quarter — but resiliency and an all-around effort on offense helped push Texas (3-0) to the victory. "We knew coming over here would be a really tough game," Texas head coach Mack Brown said. "It was the biggest game on this campus probably in the history of this school. But we needed a real tough game on the road. The first two games did not test us in the third quarter." Houston (0-2) jumped ahead to a 14-10 lead late in the first half thanks to a pair of touchdown drives that left the Horns scram­ bling to find answers. "When they went up 14-10, we really went, 'Hey, let's wake up. Let's come out here and play foot­ ball,'" said Texas defensive end Cory Redding, whose brother Chris plays on Houston's offensive line. "We can't underestimate any team on any day. They had really good players." Following the Cougars' second touchdown, Texas quarterback Chris Simms led a drive to Houston's end of the field. The Horns appeared to be on their way to a score, when Simms was drilled for a 7-yard loss by Houston's Jason Parker. Texas called a timeout as Simms was slow to pull himself up off the ground. The very next play, though, Simms found Tony Jeffery on a 17- yard pass for a touchdown, break­ ing the Cougars' momentum and providing the spark the Horns des­ perately needed. It was perhaps the biggest turn­ ing point of the game. "I was so proud of the way the offense responded," Brown said. "The passing attack was like we wanted it to be." On Texas' ensuing kickoff, Dan Smith squibbed a 35-yard onside kick that the H orns recovered to set up a 47-yard Dusty M angum field goal. With the gam e still in question early in the third quarter, the Texas defense held strong. O n consecutive the Horns fourth-and-one plays, stopped Houston. Both stands set up Texas touchdowns. Texas also turned in its first 100- yard rusher and 100-yard receiver of the season. Starting tailback Ivan Williams pum m eled his way on the ground to 104 yards and punched in two touchdow ns in goal line sit­ uations, while w ideout B.J. Johnson hauled in a 92-yard bom b from Simms that highlighted Johnson's 124 receiving yards. "It looked like the guy w as play­ ing a Cover Two, and I sw am and got back outside," Johnson said of the first-quarter score, the sixth- longest scoring play in Texas histo­ ry. "It w as w ide open — w hat can I say?" The one-play drive m ust have been a relief to the H orns' offense, which had been receiving criticism recently for not being as explosive as some fans w ould have liked. "T hat's w hat w e've been w an t­ ing, and I know that's w hat the fans have been w anting," Johnson said. "So w e're going to try to do that every w eek now." Special teams again proved to be one of the H orns' strong suits. Texas blocked a 37-yard field goal attem pt in the second quarter and recovered the short kickoff just before the end of the first half. M angum, however, did miss two kicks on the night. His streak of nine consecutive field goals ended in the fourth quarter, when he missed a 36-yard field goal attem pt. He also missed a late extra th at point follow ing a pen alty pushed the attem pt 15 yards back.
