Oregon faces Huskies Saturday
By Ashley Conklin
Emerald Sports Editor
In the last 50 years. Oregon
has beaten Washington only six
times in Seattle and the last
time the Ducks beat the Hus
kies in Husky Stadium was
1080
Given those odds, it would
seem that Washington has a
huge advantage going into Sat
urday's Pacific-10 Conference
game.
“Those aren't very good
odds." Oregon Coach Rich
Brooks said. “Maybe we

should stay home. It's a tough
place to win and Washington
certainly has the decided ad
vantage in the series totally, re
gardless of whether it’s been up
there, or here, or in Portland,
or wherever it's been played.”
Husky Stadium is expected
to be filled to the 72,500-seat
capacity by game time and
Washington Coach Don James
said in a rivalry of the Oregon
Washington nature, the home
field advantage is a distinct
one.
"When you enter into a rival
ry like this, the crowd always
plays a major role." he said.
"The noise level and the 12th
man factor is a big advantage.
When you play a game against
a non-rival it's different ."
I.ast year, the Ducks had as
good a chance as ever to win in
Husky Stadium, but four Dill
Musgrave interceptions and
three fumbles did them in as
Oregon lost 20-14.
The Ducks had a chance to
win in the end, but fumbled
away their final chance on the

Husky 40-yard line with 1:38
remaining in the game.
It was a battle of defense on
both sides of the ball and
Brooks knows that given the
strength of Washington's de
fense this time around. Oregon
cannot turn the ball over and
expect to win.
"Seven turnovers is an inor
dinate amount of turnovers in a
game and if we re going to be
that free with the football then
we don't have much of a
chance to win the football
game," Brooks said
l.ast year's game was one of
the worst in Musgrave's career
He did complete 21 of 40 pass
es for 250 yards, but the four
interceptions wen1 too much to
overcome.
"(In) last year's game the in
terceptions hurt our defense be
cause they played a great
game." Musgrave said. "I need
to play a little bit better this
time and make amends for last
year.”
