Bowl berth good opportunity, if done correctly
BBT"
From the
Sidelines
Sieve Mims
The ] ‘i'(2 Independent o
Bowl is <i great opporluni
ly for Oregon lo show off
its athletic mid academli pro
gram to iho country, if it is
done correctly.
Will'll the Due ks traveled to
Shreveport. La three years ago
for the game, too many people
went with the team for free
The Ducks can Ik- partially ex
cused for not being prepared
for a bowl game because they
bad not been Invited to a post
season ap|M>urance In years,
but as they prepare for their
third bowl game in thrrlast four
years, the Ducks must be more
careful
l our of the most controver
sial people the Ducks look to
the i'liiu Independence Bowl
were laigene Mayor |eff Miller,
Springfield Mayor Bill
Morriselte and their wives If
Miller and Morriselte want to
attend this year's game, they
should tie calling their travel
agents The only people the
University should pay to send
to the game are the players,
(ouches, a few s, bool udmints
iplfi who
tralors and other per
need In hi- there
I he i u r r ii n I p r I c c for .t
nmmitrlp lli ket lo Shreveport
is S450 if a person agrees lo
st.tv in town for it least four
nights, sun) Karon Clark of
AAA Travel Agent y If a per
son slavs less than four nights,
ihi’ price is S'WXi, sail! Clark
This means that for every
person the University sends lo
the game, it will cost $450 lor
airfare Assuming eat h person
Slavs in a respectable hotel, say
$75 per ntgiit. the total i os! |>er
person is S750 lor the game
This amount of money is 80
percent of the cost for in state
tuition for one term With all
the economic problems facing
higher education, this money
must be spent on students rath
er than four days and nights in
Shreveport for people who
have nothing to do with the Or
egon football program
The University has agreed lo
purr hose 8,140 tickets at $30
piece for the Independence
Bowl It s a lot. but it had lo lie
done for Oregon lo he invited
lo ttii- game "1110 Durks will bo
hard pressed to sell more than
5,000 of these seals, which
means the unsold seals will
cost the University about
$00,000.
Before people start compar
ing this year's trip to Shrove
port lo the 198*1 trip. they must
realize the differences BUI
Bvme. Oregon's athletic dim
tor 111 1989, hotighl 14.000 seats
arid lost $174,000 to assure the
7 4 Ducks would plttv In a howl
game (of the hrsl time iri
years A bowl game is not us
important for the Dinks this
year Imkuum the 0 5 record is
ijuesitunable for postseason
play, and the Ducks appeared
In howl games in 1'tH‘l and
1990.
Thu biggest difference be
tween Oregon •> appearam e in
the Independence Bowl three
years ago and now is the num
ber of tickets bought by the
University The 14.000 tickets
Byrne purchased for the Uni
versity in 1'IH'I cost S100,000
more than the 8,140 txmght this
year In odditlon. Oregon was
payed $500,000 to appear in
the 1989 game, compared to
$050,000 this year
Add the $100.000 less that
the University spent to get in
the bowl and the $150,000
more they will be payed to ap
pear. and it will cost Oregon
$250.000 less to ploy this year
This time around. Oregon
should make a! leas! a little
money to play In the bowl
game
All money matters aside, the
talk of a ImiwI appearance being
emlmrrassing lor a 0-5 team is
stupid There Is no reason lo be
embarrassed altout going lo a
bowl garni' and even less rea
son to is’ embarrassed alxnrt l>e
ing •! 1 in a conference that had
seven loams receive vole* in re
ten! Top 25 polls
I he 1992 Oregon Ducks are a
good f(M>ti>all team, not a great
team and probably not as good
us tint Ducks' 1983 and 1990
bowl learns flirt litis is a good
leant Oregon was in practically
every game il played this year,
and with a couple of breaks
they mu Id have been 8-3.
The factors that keep the
1992 Ducks from being consid
ered a Top 25 learn were clear
ly evident in their 9-6 loss
against UCLA two weekends
ago Oregon entered the gartte
5-4, thinking they needed two
wins to clinch a bowl berth.
There was no excuse for the
Ducks to come out as flat as
they did and lose an important
game against a weaker team,
but they did. The UCLA game
was the kind of game that a top
notch team would win in a
rout, but the Ducks didn't. For
tunately for the Ducks, great
teams aren't the only ones who
gel iiowl berths, a lot of good
teams also do.
This bowl game ts a great
i banco for the Ducks to show
case their football team to the
entire nation anil improve their
recruiting position When a
high school pInver watches the
Ducks on New Years Eve on
ESPN and realizes the Ducks
.ire playing their third bowl
game in four years, it will make
a strong impression
This year's Duck squad also
deserves to play in a postseason
game because of the obstacles
they have overcome during the
season A lot of people bolioved
that when Oregon went 3*8 last
year it signified a return to past
years of futility After Oregon
started 0-2 this year, people got
even further down on the
Ducks.
It took a lot of heart for the
Ducks to fight back as they did
instead of fall apart An Inde
pendence Bowl berth is a good
way to reward the Ducks for
not giving up, especially the se
niors who have been a major
part of the transition from a
p<x>r football program to a com
petitive one.
Oregon head coach and ath
letic director Rich Brooks has
taken a lot of criticism for han
dling both jobs, and budgeting
this trip will be his first major
undertaking. There is u lot of
pressure on Brooks not to lose
money on this trip. He has said
he won't, and as long as he
doesn't, the bowl appearance is
something for all Oregon fans
to be proud of.
