Huskies, Bruins top list
Pac-10 outcome predicted
By Aaron Knox
(If III* I meraid
This is a year of transition in
the Pacific 10 Conference
gridiron wars. So it comes as no
real surprise that the two teams
with the most stability should
fight it out fur a Rose Bowl
berth
The date will la* Nov. 14 Col
lege font to It fans should circle
it on their calendar. That is the
day Washington will upend
UCI.A to win the conference
championship.
The Bruins shouldn't take the
loss too hard, though. They
head a list of at least five other
Pac-IH schools with legitimate
postseason aspirations.
Cist year a record six Pac-10
teams saw postseason action,
and this year could be equally
productive. The University of
Southern California. Stanford
and Arizona State should all
receive bowl bids, and Arizona
has an outside shot at an ap
pearance as well.
Oregon fans pining for NFL
bound quarterback Chris Miller
will not he alone, as only four
teams in the conference return
their starting signal-callers from
a year ago
Besides plugging the void at
QB, six teams must also find
new place-kickers, and four
teams will be breaking in new
head coaches.
What follows is a team-by
team breakdown of the Pac-10.
and their projected order of
finish. Also included is a
predicted overall and con
ference record (in parentheses)
for each team.
1. Washington Huskies
Projected Record: 11-0 (8-0)
The Huskies are loaded.
Where other teams feature one
or two impact players, the
Huskies are solid throughout
the roster, returning 14 starters
from last season.
The Itawgs defense should be
particularly stingy. Washington
led the conference in total
defense a year ago, and did it
with balance as they finished
second against both the run and
the pass.
Seven starters from that unit
return for 10H7, led by the
linebacker corps, Three starters
are seniors, and two |Bo Yates
and David Rill) are future pro
prospects.
The Huskies will have to
retool both lines to live up to ex
pectations. Gone from the
defensive side is Pac-10 defen
sive MVP Reggie Rogers, while
the tight end and both tackle
positions on offense need to be
filled
Washington gets the nod over
UCLA ultimately because of
head coach Don lames, now in
his 13th year at the Huskie
helm, and an easier schedule.
James enters the season with a
conference coaching mark of
04-24-1 only one victory
behind former USC mentor
Howard Jones for second place
on the conference's all-time vic
tory list, and six behind leader
John McKay, also from USC.
The record and the roses should
be his by season's end.
2. UCLA Bruins
Projected Record: 9-2 (7-1)
The Bruins seem to be getting
the majority of the preseason at
tention in the conference this
year, largely on the strength of
Meisman Trophy-hopeful
Gaston Green. The Bruins have
hosted three of the last four
Rose Bowls, but they would be
wise to book reservations
elsewhere this year.
Green, a senior tailback,
enters 1987 hoping to pick up
where he left off at the conclu
sion of 1986, when he rushed
for 490 yards in UCLA'S final
two games, including 266 in the
Bruins 31-10 romp over BYU in
the Freedom Bowl.
UCLA also boasts a strong
contingent of returning starters
from a defense that led the
Pac-10 in passing defense and
was third best overall last
season. Like Washington,
UCLA's strength figures to be
its linebackers.
Ken Norton. |r., son of the
former heavyweight boxing
champion, is the prototypical
NFL prospect. Strong, quick,
and a vicious hitter, Norton will
make more than a few op
ponents wish he had followed
in his father's footsteps instead
of unleashing his skills on the
gridiron
I he biggest question marks
on the Bruins revulve around
the quarterback and the offen
sive line For the first time since

19H1 a non-senior will guide the
attack, with junior Troy Aiknian
currently at the top of coach
Terry Donahue's depth chart
If Aikman’s name rings a bell,
it should. He started a few
games and raised a few
eyebrows at Oklahoma Univer
sity before becoming disen
chanted with the Sooners' run
dominated game plan and
tranferring to Lotus Land.
The offensive line is even
more unsettled than the quarter
back position. All five starting
down linemen from last season
have graduated, leaving
Donahue with a gaping hole to
fill. For Green to run, the line
must open the holes, and for the
QB to throw it must provide
protection. Whether it does will
decide the fate of this team.
One thing seems certain. The
Bruins will see postseason ac
tion. UCLA has seven straight
winning seasons, and the last
six of them have concluded
with a bowl game. The Bruins
also have five straight bowl
wins.
3. Arizona State Sun
Devils
Projected Record: 7-4 (5-2)
Defending Pac-10 and Rose
Bowl champions, the Sun
Devils will find themselves
back with the pack in 1987. The
strongest factor in ASU's favor
is likely to be its schedule,
which bypasses contenders
USC and Stanford.
Although their third game is
against top national preseason
pick Nebraska, the Sun Devils
should thrive on the likes of the
University of Texas-El Paso and
Pacific in addition to California.
Oregon State and Washington
State.
Another key that favors ASU
in 1987 is the running game
Running backs Darryl Harris
and Channing Williams were
both all-conference second
team selections last year, com
bining for nearly 1,500 yards on
the ground. They may find the
going a little rougher this year
as coach John Cooper must plug
three interior line holes.
Heir apparent Dan Ford will
get a long look at quarterback as
Cooper seeks a replacement for
departed Jeff Van Raaphorst
Ford attempted just 18 passes
last season as Van Raaphorst's
backup, but completed 11 for
three touchdowns.
The defensive line is even
more patchy than the offense,
with only one starter (senior
tackle Shawn Patterson) return
ing. But the secondary is stable
with senior cornerbacks Eric
Allen and Jeff Joseph providing
the coverage.

Projected Record: 7-4 (5-3)
