    Huskies come back to beat Cal
Hr.KKhl.hT . UUtt. (At’J — I He
Washington Huskies are doing
(heir best to moke this a season
to remember, even if sanctions
against the program have
already eliminated them from
the Rose Bowl race.
Through all of the turmoil, the
Huskies are putting together n
successful season, and they
remain a force in the national
rankings. They also showed in
Saturday's gritty 24-23 win over
California that they could very
well have a say in who ultimate
ly represents the Pacific-10 Con
ferem e in the Rose Bowl.
Washington overcame seven
turnovers and a 23-10 deficit
when Damon Huard. who threw
four interceptions, recovered to
throw two touchdown passes
around a successful on-sides
kick in the final 2:0(i for the vic
tory.
"We re on a mission this year
and we couldn't quit," said
Napoleon Kaufman, whose 4
yard touchdown run was part of
a 21-0 run hv Washington in the
second half.
The Huskies, the conference
representative in the last three
Rose Bowls, are determined to
show the rest of the league that
they still must reckon with
them.
Cal's loss to Washington was
its 13th straight to the Huskies
dating to 1077. It may have been
the most painful because it
broke Cal's bid for its best start
since 1950 and denied the Bears
a chance to solidify their confer
ence standing.
"Washington is THK team we
wanted to beat," Cal quarterback
Dave Barr said. "We’d be over
the edge if we beat them. We
didn’t do it.”
Cal linebacker Jerrott Willard
said the loss was disappointing,
but he expressed confidence the
Bears would rebound.
"Washington executed real
well on those last couple of dri
ves and you (ain't take that away
from them.” Willard said. "We
lost to a great team. But I think

Oregon got back on tint score
board by using a trick play for
the second week in a row. Ore
gon bad the ball at the six yard
line, when O'Neil handed off to
Sean Harwell on what appeared
to be a sweep. Instead, the
senior running back threw the
ball to Mcl.emore. who was
alone in the back of the end
zone, for the touchdown. The
Ducks attempted a two-point
conversion by faking the extra
point, but the Trojans reacted
quickly and stopped it to retain
a 14-13 lead.
Neither team could manage a
score in the third quarter,
although Oregon appeared to
have a chance to do so when
fullback Dwayne Jones fumbled
at the USC 31 yard line, and
Trojan safety Sammy Knight
pounced on the ball to end Ore
gon's threat.
"I thought we were in posi
tion to win at halftime.” Brooks
said. “The turning point of the
game came when it looked like
we had a first down, but we
fumbled the ball. USC took con
trol of the game at that point and
we were swimming upstream."
After kicking a field goal, USC
got the ball hack in great posi
tlon when linebacker Jeff Kopp
blindsided O'Neil, forcing a
fumble that was recovered at the
Oregon five yard line by line
backer Willie McGinest.
"I never saw him," O'Neil
said in reference to Kopp. "1 felt
him at the end and 1 should
have stepped up, 1 was probably
too deep; it's frustrating."
USC scored three pluys later
when Johnson found Morton,
who once again I mat double cov
erage, in the corner of the end
zone to give the Trojans a 24-13
lead with 12:13 left in the game.
"1 bothered (Johnson) enough
to tell him to throw it no matter
what kind of coverage there
was," Morton said. "He threw it
perfect. If he had thrown it a
split second later, it would have
gotten hit or I would have gotten
hit."
The Ducks still had time to try
and mount a comeback, but
USC's defense stepped up and
the Ducks kept shooting them
selves in the foot. Oregon's next
drive ended when O'Neil under
threw Dameron Kicketts. and
USC's Jason Sehorn intercepted
his fifth pass of the year.
The Ducks got a couple breaks
midway through the fourth
quarter when USC kicker Mike
Salmon missed a 24-yard field
goal, and an apparent intercep
lion by Trojan cornerback John
Herpin was ruled incomplete.
The Ducks failed to take advan
tage and gave the bull back to
USC when tight end Willy Tate
was hit by Salmon, causing a
fumble that was picked up by
the Trojans.
Oregon's final hope came to
an end when O'Neil's puss to
Mcl.emore was intercepted by
Jason Oliver with 1:08 left in the
game.
"They did a good job of
putting pressure on me and cov
ering people." O'Neil said.
"They were faster than I expect
ed them to be."
O'Neil completed 24 of 36
passes for 297 yards, and
Mcl.emore had his best college
game, catching seven of those
passes for 102 yards. The Ducks
were unable to run the ball
effectively, gaining only 88
yards on the ground, with Bur
well picking up 68 himself.
Ricky Whittle and Dino
Philyaw, both limited by
injuries, had only three rushes
combined.
The Ducks, who appeared to
Ihj on their way to a 4-0 start to
the season just nine days ago.
are now 3-2 and must regroup
before next Saturday's game at
Arizona State.
Pass it on.
