-Oregon Daily Emerald Sports UCLA prepares for Arizona after scare against OSU I.OS ANGELES (AP) — A not so funny thing almost happened to UCLA and Ari zona on their wav to Saturday night's Pacific-10 Conference showdown at the Rose Howl both were in jeopardy of being tied or beaten. The No. lr> Bruins beat host Oregon State 20-17 on Saturday thanks in port to a missed 32-yard field goal by Oregon State s Brooke Knight with 4:22 to piny. The kick, whic h would have tied the game, was wide by inches. Earlier in the day, No. 7 Arizona beat Washington Stale 9-fi because Aaron Pric e of the Cougars barely missed a 4‘l vard field goal with two sis onds left that would have tied the game "I felt very fortunate about our game at Oregon Stale," UCLA coach Terrv Don ahue said Monday. "The game could have gone in the other direction It was nice to win one of those games." I1CLA lost its first two games of the sea son — to California and No. 6 Nebraska — by a total of three points Since those narrow defeats, the Bruins have won five games in a row, their longest winning streak since they opened the 1088 season with seven straight wins Oregon State entered the game with a .1-4 record, having won only one game in ear h of the 1990, 1991 and 1992 seasons "1 think the Oregon State team played very inspired and they played very well." Donahue said "We played hard "If they're no good, than we're not any good either They gave us all we wanted I'm glad we wee able to maybe not play that well and win." Arizona (7-0 overall. 4-0 in the Par • 10) Right now, Arizona* got the best defense in the history of the NCAA against the rush — Terry Donahue UCLA coach is alone atop the conference standings. UCLA (5-2, .1-1) is tied for second with Southern (jil and Washington, which is ineligible for the Rose Bowl. Arizona has already beaten Southern Cal, and doesn't play Washington this season So a victory over UCLA would put the Wildcats in great shape in the Rose Bowl race and ail but eliminate the Bruins from contention "We'd boll nr not let them win,” Don ahue said. After Arizona, the Bruins have road games against Washington State and Southern C j»l sandwiched around a home game against Arizona State. After UCLA, the Wildcats have a home game against Oregon followed by road games against California and Arizona State. Donahue is well mvarn Ihol Arizona leads the country in rushing defense (15.1 yards per game) and total defense (20H.1 yards per game). "Right now, Arizona's got the best defense in the history of the NCAA against the rush." lie said. "That's a shocking statistic. Arizona is a great, great defensive football team."
