the passing game if the Trojans
are to finish this high
The defense returns nine
starters from a year ago. and it
must also play well to take the
load off of the offense. Willie
McGinest, a linehacker-turned
defensive end registered lfi quar

of the most intimidating defen
sive players in the conference
Projected record: 5-3, 7-5

w Cardinal has one
of the most
experienced
quarterbacks in
the conference,
but an abundance of youth else
where will keep Stanford from
contending for the crown this
vear.
Steve Stenstrom is the top
quarterback in the country, but
he has lost four of his top
receivers from last year and does
not have a proven running back
in the hackfield with him.
Although the Cardinal will
drop off a bit from last year's co
conference championship team,
it should be near the top again
soon. Head coach Bill Walsh had
one of the best recruiting classes
in the nation for each of the past
two years, which should result
in a return to power for the Car
dinal in the future
Stanford bus the benefit of sev
en home games and only four
road games this season, but that
includes games against Notre
Dame and Colorado.
Projected record: ti-5, 5-3
Oregon Ducks:
The Ducks have
the talent to fin
, ish as high as
third in the con
ference. but to
do that they
need to win on the rood, which
is unlikely The Ducks have lit
tle chance at Arizona and Wash
ington, but need to win at Cali
fornia and Arizona State if they
want to be a factor. They must
also play better at home, where
heatable IJSC and Stanford will
pay visits
Oregon will go as far as its
offense takes it this vear. The

Washington running back Napoleon Kautman established himselt as
the most explosive back In the Pac-10 last year when he averaged 6 5
yards per rush on his way to 1,037 yards
both be solid, so tho Ducks have
to get the ball in the end zone
more often. The Ducks were poor
last year inside of opponents' ter
ritory and must get more tout h
downs, not field goals, this year
Projected record: 6-5, 4-4
UCLA: UCLA
will look to rise
back to the top
of the Pat:-10
i standings after
spending the
past few years near the bottom of
the conference The Bruins’
record during the past four years
is only 23-21-1, and they have
advanced to only one bowl game
during that span.
UCLA's first order of business
this year is to find a i|uartarba< k
from among three hopefuls
Junior Wayne Cook will open the
season at the helm of the offense,
but he has limited experience

injury Ryan Fien and Rob Walk
