Duck victory will be anything but gentlemanly
Oregon State's win streak should end
By Tracy Sumner
Emerald Sports Editor
ll is understandable that Ore
gon football I'oai It Ki( h Brooks
is wary of oven onfident e in
his team going into Saturday s
game with l.ong Beach State
"I don't think we re a good
enough football team to he
overt onfident about anybodv
he said
Presumably, that includes
the Piers .1 team the I hit ks
drilled -4*1-0 in l.isl season's sea
son opener
l.ong Beach State has
dropped four of its last live
games after .1 J-l start That in
cludes .1 ii 1 in manhandling In
Hawaii and a r>J-l) washout
against Fresno State Uist
week, it was Jl-lt) to San lose
State
Still Brooks warns, the -Piers
are not th.it bad ol a lootball
team
"They have a lot of speed at
the skill positions and an out
standing (|uartert>a( k who
throws the hall very v\ell
Brooks said 'The_\ also run
some things on defense that
i ould give us a lot ot trouble
"They’re a mm h better foot
ball team than the\ were .1 year
ago. he said "We have to
keep that emotional high, be
cause it i ould be ,i very long
dav if we’re not ready to play
If this year's Long Hear h
State record as compared with
last year's means anything
Brooks may be right Last year
after eight games, the -Biers
were 1-7, with very few c lose
losses So far this year, they are
:i-r>
But some of those losses have
been ugly very ugly It
would be a good guess to s.i\
that the -Piers' improved rec ord
is more due to ail easier sc bed
ule than better play
The bottom line is that Long
Heac h State- may be a marginal
ly better football team this year
than last but not improved
enough to compete yvith the
Ducks
Oregon is coming ofl an im
pressive 27-7 win over Arizona
Stale and nun just have found a
running game
After spending much of the
first half of the season with
their running game stuck in
park, the lliuks came alive
against the Sun Devils rai king
up Jt>7 yards rushing
Derek l.oville broke out of .1
season long slump to post .1 ( a
