Worth. There were four touchdowns in the final 2:34. TCU freshman reserve Max Knake came in to throw two fourth-quarter scoring passes to Jimmy Oliver, including one with 49 seconds to play. But it wasn't enough for the Horned Frogs, 2-7-1 overall and 1-5 the SWC. Knake gave the Frogs a 21-17 lead at the 2:34 left with a seven-yard scoring pass to Oliver. Then Clemmons flipped an eight-yard touchdown strike to Hill with 1:06 seconds left to give Texas Tech (4-6, 3-3) a 24-21 lead. Clemmonstook Tech 80 yards in five plays on the last drive, the payoff coming on the long throw to Hill behind two TCU defenders. Texas 35, Southern Methodist 14--Peter Gardere threw for three touchdowns and the Longhorns' defense locked up the Mustangs' run-and-shoot offense in this SWC game at Austin, Tex. The Texas defense, which has struggled for much of the season without a strong pass rush, sacked SMU quarterbacks seven times, including three by Winfred Tubbs. Texas (6-3, 4-1) still has Baylor and No. 4 Texas A&M left on its schedule. SMU fell to 4-6 and 2-5. Gardere's three touchdown passes give him 15 for the season, which is a school record. SMU receiver Jason Wolf caught six passes, giving him an SWC record 221 receptions. Rice 34, Baylor 31--Darrell Richardson kicked a 27-yard field goal with four seconds left, capping another wild SWC game and leading the Owls to a victory over the Bears at Houston. The victory put Rice (5-4, 4-2) in position for its first winning season since 1963 if it can win one of its final games against Navy or Houston. Baylor is 5-5 and 3-3.
