the Pacer record book by passing for 2.4(H) yards
and 24 touchdowns as a junior and 1 .(><«) yards in
six games as a senior before being sidelined with
a shoulder separation that would haunt him for
the next three years.
However, his most impressive statistic: may
have been his 18 touchdown to three interception
ratio. It was numbers like these that made
Palumbis the hottest cpiarterback prospect to
come out of the state in recent years and earned
him a spot on numerous prep all-American
teams.
With numbers and honors like that. Palumbis
had the pick of the litter when it came to choos
in^ .1 college. Hr ( hose Stanford and he (ouldn’t
lx* happier!
"There are a lot of reasons why I t hose Stan
ford." I'alumhis said "The academics played a
major role in my dm ision as did the fat t that the\
like to throw the hall and that it's close enough to
home that my parents are able to wati h .1 lot of
my games. Stanford is definitely the place for
me."
I’alumhis will earn an economics degree this
spring and is thinking of pursuing a history dr
gree or Masters in the near future. That is if he
isn't busy taking snaps in the NFL.
"If the chance comes along to play in the NFL.
I'd love to do it," F’alumhis said, "hut I'm not
thinking about it right now. All I'm thinking
about now is winning trail games."

ROUNDUP
Continued from Page 5
Brigham Young :12 lf> The
Ducks weren't nearly as sharp
following the Washington
loss, getting by on a strong
defensive performance and
punt and interception returns
for touchdowns to boat Arizo
na State 27-7 last week.
”1 think this team is one
that has responded to adversi
ty in a ptositive manner."
Brooks said. "They've over
come some tough losses, diffi
cult things during the year,
(and) overcome some poor
play during certain games
"Certainly last week we
started on our heels." he said.
"Arizona State was complete
ly taking the fight to us and
we recovered from that to find
a way to win a game that we
didn't play very well on of
fense."
The offense struggled
against the Sun Devils, for the
most part, because quarter
back Bill Musgrave missed
most of practice with an ab
dominal muscle injury, al
though he did play most of
the game.
Despite the injury to Mus
grave, Brooks is concerned
about the way his offense has
played the last two weeks and
said if the Ducks don't contin
ue to improve the rest of the
season, they can forget about
going to a bowl game this
year
"Unless we start improving
as a team. 1 don't think those
chances are going to i>e real
good,” he said "Up to the
Washington game I thought
our team was making progress
and getting better every week
"I’ve sensed, particularly
on the offensive side, the last
two weeks where we've really
leveled off and may lx? taken a
step or two backward."
Brooks said.
• • •
While the offense has strug
gled lately, the Oregon de
fense has played very well.
The Ducks are second in the
i’ac-10 in troth rushing de
fense (110.3 yards per game)
and scoring defense (19.1
points per game). Oregon is
ltrth nationally against the
run. and lias held three oppo
nents to under 100 yards
rushing.
Oregon held BYU to minus
47 yards and allowed only 21
yards to Utah State and H2 to
Arizona State.
Things should get even bet
ter next year, as nine starters
return to the Duck line-up.
The only senior starters on de
fense are linebacker Peter
Brantley, strong safety Kory
Dairy and cornerback Daryl
Singleton, who is now start
ing for the injured Muham
mad Oliver.
Oliver, a junior, had sur
gery on his knee last week
and will he bac k in time to
play m a bowl game if the
Ducks make it to the post-sea
son.
