TCU GAME NOTES
Bruce suffers broken leg Freshman running back Andre Bruce, whom head coach Pat Sullivan said would be getting more playing time due to Andre Davis' suspension by the NCAA, broke his leg on a running play in the third quarter. Sullivan was visibly upset by Bruce"s injury after the game. "Andre Bruce is a wonderful, wonderful kid," Sullivan said. "It makes me sick that this has happened to him. He's a very confident kid and he's going to make some big plays for this football team in the future." Bruce's injury comes at a time when healthy running backs are hard to find for the Frogs. Along with Davis being out, starting fullback Koi Woods has a bruised knee and is listed as probable for next week. And Sterling Boyd and Matt Moore suffered injuries during practice last week. Along with the running backs, receiver Chris Brasfield won't play in Lubbock because of a severely sprained ankle, and Jason I ucker is still questionable because of the sprained ankle that kept htm out Satur- day. "Lord knows we've got to get some people back healthy tor the stretch run," Sullivan said.

Donte Womack, the Mustangs' leading rusher who is averaging just under 80 yards per game on the ground, was a non-fac- tor rushing the ball Saturday. He gained just 34 yards on 15 carries, and Sullivan and players called his being shut down one of the big fac- tors in the game. "It's obviously very big when you can eliminate on facet of the other team's offense," Sullivan said of his defense limiting SMU to only 69 yards on 30 carries as a team. "We didn't give up the big play on the ground today and I was very pleased with the way we played run defense." "They have a lot of tendencies, and we were able to tell what they were doing on certain plays, so we were able to focus on stopping the run," defensive end Chris Piland said. But stopping SMU quarterback Derek Canine was a more difficult task for the Frogs. With the running game held in check, Canine was forced to throw 50 passes. He completed 30 of those for 294 yards, but he only found the end zone once, on a 6-yard rollout pass to Kevin Thomal in the second quarter.

The Frogs' 6-2 record includes wins in their last three home games over Houston, I'ulane and the Mus- tangs. In all three games, TCU was favored by more than 10 points. In all of them, the game came down to the Know the Code. I HOG CALL ATT That's Your True ChoiceT fourth quarter. Piland said despite the success in the won-lost column, fans haven't seen the best the Frogs have to offer.

Taking the level of play to the next level is something TCU will have to do next weekend in a big SWC battle in l.ubbock with Texas Tech.
