Oregon starting over
Gridders take on Cal in league opener
By Steve Turcotte
Of the Emerald
It is a new season for Oregon football. Not brand
new, because the Ducks are 1-3 on the season, but
new because they have yet to play a Pac-10 game.
Oregon coach Rich Brooks, although not pleased
with the pre-season record, indicates it's good to get
a fresh start and put the non-league record on the
shelf for future reference.
"It's really appropriate for us to look at it as a
new season," Brooks says. "This will be our first shot
at it (a Pac-10 win) and we need to go after it."
On tap for the Ducks' Pac-10 opener Saturday at
Autzen Stadium is )oe Kapp and his California Bears.
Cal leads the 50-year-old series 30-17-2 and won
last year 7-6, thanks to a last-minute touchdown pass
from quarterback Gale Gilbert to David Lewis of
Portland's Grant High School. The Bears return a
handful of starters from last year's team, including
Gilbert and tight end Lewis.
Gilbert is the Pac-10's leading passer and the na
tion's 14th-ranked quarterback, having thrown for
1,062 yards this season.
In last week's 33-33 tie with 10th-ranked Arizona,
Gilbert brought the Bears back from a 23-3 deficit,
completing 24 of 38 passes for 244 yards and a pair of
touchdowns.
That gave Sports Illustrated reason enough to tab
him its player of the week.
"Gale has given us the ability to throw the long
ball," says Kapp, once a quarterback at Cal himself.
"He has done it with David Lewis and Andy Bark this
season."
Lewis, Cal's potential All-American, has caught 22
of Gilbert's aerials for 385 yards and two
touchdowns.
"David is really playing like an All-American,"
Kapp says. "It's his final time to be playing in the
state of Oregon, so I think he'll be ready to go."
Brooks, who witnessed Cal's tie with Arizona,
knows his Duck defense will have its hands full.
"They have a great quarterback and a couple of
great receivers in Lewis and Bark," Brooks says. "Ob
viously, that concerns me."
Defensively, the Bears are led by All-America
linebacker Ron Rivera. The Cal defense, which
limited Arizona to just 86 yards on the ground and 10
second-half points, may be one of the better ones in
the Pac-10.
They have a great defense, clearly the best we've
faced this year," says Brooks, "and Rivera is totally a
dominating player."
Oregon continues to improve offensively — scor
ing 34 points against San Jose State. But one thing
which has plagued Oregon is its inability to run the
football with any kind of consistency. The best Duck
ground performer thus far has been fullback Ladaria
Johnson, who had 46 yards against Houston.
Although they aren't running like Nebraska, the
Ducks have thrown the ball very well. Quarterback
Mike Jorgensen threw for 224 yards and three
touchdowns against San Jose State.
"We think that Oregon is a dangerous team,
especially up in Eugene," Kapp says. "We know that
they have improved a lot on offense and we also
remember they gave us a very good game last year."
Through four games, the Ducks, namely"Lew
Barnes, have proven their ability to come up with the
big play. The junior was on the end of a 53-yard
touchdown pass from Jorgensen against Hpuston
and a 67-yard scoring strike against the Spartans. And
against a defense like Cal's, the big play will be
important.
Harriers to race at Invitational
Oregon men's cross country
coach Bill Deiiinger has a problem
— but it's a pleasant one.
Dellinger, using the early
season to pick his top seven run
ners from a talented group, hopes
Saturday's Oregon Invitational at
Tokatee Golf Club will clear up
what has become a very muddled
picture.
The Ducks' second meet of the
season should provide Dellinger
with a good look at his runners —
all 18 of them.
Brad Simpson, Chris Hamilton,
|ohn Zishka and Vance Blow will
run their first race of the year. All
four are expected to support All
American ]im Hill it they remain
healthy.
After those five, Dellinger has a
lot of question marks. He will run
Matt McGuirk, Will Kimball, |ohn
Carlotti, Dub Myers and Blow
unattached to keep them eligible
to redshirt. Dellinger says depth
will force him to redshirt at least
one "very good runner" this year.
The coach is very high on one of
his new faces. University of
Portland transfer Hamilton.
"Hamilton takes up the slack of
losing Greg Erwin (the only Duck
to graduate off last year's team),"
says Dellinger.
Simpson, Blow, Zishka, Hill and
Hamilton seem assured of spots in
the top seven. However, the final
spots on the team could go to any
of the younger runners, making
Saturday's race an important one
for several Ducks.
Dellinger doesn't seem con
cerned about his team defending
its 1982 Pac-10 championship. In
fact, he hinted that his seventh
ranked Ducks could move up in
the rankings by the end of the
year.
"I think our team is better than
last year's," says the coach.
"We're ranked seventh nationally,
and I think we can be better than
that, especially if everyone re
mains healthy."
One harrier who has had trou
ble staying healthy is Zishka, still
bothered by a nagging heel injury.
Saturday's meet features seven
teams and some good individual
runners — including ex-Oregon
great Rudy Chapa.
