Homed Frogs feature air attack
By Rob Barney .
In 1973, with Texas Christian University (TCU) down
in its football fortunes, the Horned Frogs hired a new
head coach; Jim Shofner. '
Shofner, a 1957 TCU graduate, was a starting corner
back" with the Gevebnd Crowns until ISC. During that .
time, the Browns jvon one divisional championship and
finished.no lower than third in the division standings.
When he left the Crowns, Shofner returned as an assis
tant coach to TCU for two years. In his first year, 1SS5,
the Frogs went to the Sun Bowl, their last bowl
appearance.
Shofner went to the San Francisco 43srs in 1SS7 as
an assistant coach. During his San Francisco stay, the
49ers won three divisional titles and advanced to the con
ference finals twice.
So, back in 73 when TCU hirw Horned
Frogs fans thought some of hiss success might rub off on
his teams. The Frogs had not had a winning season since
1971 and had only four in the past 15.
Thiss not better ,
But instead of things getting better under Shofner,
things have worsened somewhat. In 1974 the Frogs won
their opening game rpinst the University of Texas El
Paso, but then lost their last ten games.
Last season the Southwest Conference (SWC) school
won its last game of the season, 23-21 over Rice Univer
sity to end a 2Q-c2.-ne losing streak, the longest in the
nation. .
TCU stands 0-2 coming into today's game, with losses
to Southern ftfethodist University (SR.? U) and the Univer
sity of Tennessee. , -
Last week against Tennessee they passed for 291 yards
but failed to score, losing 31-0.
With last week's loss, Chofner's pre-season strategy
might have gone down the drain. He had said that the
Frogs cqu'd have a winning season if they could get an
early victory.
TCU sports an All-American candidate ' in wide re
ciever KVke Renfro. The junior was AII-SVVC last season,
leading the league with 49. catches for 810 yards, both
TCUrecords."
Other offensive threats for the Frogs 'include junior
quarterback. Jimmy Dan Elzner and junior ful.'back Gerry
lUSodzelewski. -
, UNL's secondary should be expecting TCU to fill the
sky with passes today. Besides Elzner's 231 -yard perfor
mance against Tennessee last weekend, he also threw for
2S3 yards in the 34-14 loss to SMU. The Cornhusker
secondary surrendered 231 yards through the air to In
diana last Saturday.
Lowe on dsfenss "
Defensively the Frogs feature another Ail-American
candidate in sophomore safety Darryl Lowe. Lowe ran a
Vinos Ferragamo interception last year 70 yards for a
touchdown.
This is TCU's third road game in a row. Next weekend
the Frogs travel to FayetteviSle. Ark., to face the Arkansas
Razorbacks. ' "
Not all could be lost for the Frogs this afternoon,
however. Last year's 14 points against the Huskers was
their second highest total of the ssason. They sacred 23
points against Rice in their season finale for their highest
point total in 28 gsmcs. .
