Barr leads resurgent California
HI KM IT Y. (jilif (API —A little job security has
meant a lot to Dave Barr, whoso play at quarterhai k
has helped Kill rankl'd C.alifornia got out to a 4-0
start,
l ast year. I was out there just trying to win a
jolt," Harr said. This sear. I'm out there trying to
vv in games.”
On the was, Harr has quietly become one of the
nation's top passers
I he junior from nearby Concord enters Satur
day’s game against Oregon (3-0) ranked fourth in
the country in passing efficiency.
Harr's completing passes at a lift percent clip.
He's also averaging nearly a first down for every
completion (9 33 yards), lias an exceptional ratio
of nine tout hdown passes to two interceptions and
has shown n knar k for scrambling out of trouble
when the need arises
In four games, he's been sacked just four times.
"The thing that really helps us out is his pocket
composure." Cal offensive tackle Todd Steussie
said. "Ho makes good use of the time he has back
there. He gets back there, gets settled, finds the
receivers and gets the ball off quick. And every
now and then, he breaks contain just to kind of
keep the rushers honest."
Harr, involved in a tense competition for the job
with Perry Mom in 1992. was named the undis
puted starter in the spring by coach Keith Gilbert
son. who wanted to avoid the kind of controversy
that divided tin- team last year.
"He knows lie's the guy and he’s grown with the
position." Gilbertson said. "He understands the
s\ stem. He's improved himself physically so that
he's able to create play not only from inside the
pocket but also getting outside. He’s thrown a lot
of good completions just by moving around. He
does a lot of real positive things."
It wasn't always that way.
Barr and Klein alternated initially before Klein
left the team less than a month into Inst season in
a dispute over playing time, making Barr the
starter by default.
Though Barr threw for more yards (2.343) than
any sophomore in Gal history in 1992. he aba had
nearly ns many interceptions (15) as touchdowns
(19). And after a 3-1 start in 1992. Cal took a nose
dive, losing six of its last seven to wind up at 4-7.
"He was young Inst year, he didn't have any
experience and our offensive line wasn’t doing as
well as it is this year,” Steussie said. "Getting hit
as much as he did last year really got him kind of
frazzled and really made for bad things all around.
We had decent output, but it wasn't anything we
could really be proud of."

his last 25 field goal attempts,
including all seven this season.
Oregon's biggest problem Sat
urday could be nagging injuries
which have hit hardest at run
ning back and tight end. All
three of Oregon's tailbacks prac
ticed early in the week, but the
availability of Sean Burwell
(ankle). Ricky Whittle (groin)
and Dino Philyaw (hip) is still in
question.
Starting tight end Willy Tate
recovered well enough from a
shoulder injury to play last
week but is now suffering from a
bruise between his hip and ribs
Brooks said backup )osh
Wilcox's ankle injury is better,
but he is still not 1(H) percent.
Center Heath Howington and
Jeff Sherman were injured
against Illinois last week.
Their status is doubtful, as are
wide receiver Kory Murphy, cor
nerback Eugene Jackson and
center Tim DeCroote.
