Hammond and Dowdy Shine In SWC Action
SMU star Gary Hammond, switching from quarterback to tailback, exploded for 123 rushing yards and four touchdowns in a Cotton Bowl win over New Mexico State earning AP offensive player of the week. Texas Tech’s Bruce Dowdy earned AP defensive player of the week after key stops and nine tackles in a 35 13 loss to Texas.
