The biggest change for this season's game from last year's is that the Washington State defense has gotten even better. The Cougars are allowing just 1.9 yards per rush this season while Oregon's ground game is generating just 3.5 yards per rush Washington State has not been hit for a touchdown pass this season and the only touchdown the Cougars have allowed came from a 65-yard reverse last weekend at Tennessee The Ducks' numbers pale in comparison for total defense, but the Ducks are in the top half of the league and the NCAA. allowing just 22.2 points per game Washington State’s offense has only been able to rea< ii tlie end zone sis. times in four gomes, the league's small est total. "There is a lot of talk about the Desert Swarm at Arizona, but Washington State is hotter statisti cally,'' Oregon head coach Rich Brooks said, "They are playing great football. They are a veteran defensive unit with so much speed They play aggressively and confidently " Although the Cougars' offense has been strug gling. Brooks feels that won't make a difference "Their defense lias become an offensive weapon for them," Brooks said " There is no question their offense is getting better. "The key for us is to not gel caught up in the euphoria of what happened in the Coliseum." Brooks said COUGARS Continued from Page 11 not the SEC. "It was an opportunity we let slip through our hands. We had the opportunity to win the boll game in a difficult situation and we didn't get the job done " In the game, the Cougars sur rendered 14*1 yards rushing, more than double their season average, hut managed to hold the Volun teers to 80 yards through the air. "Our Cougars nre not going to stay down after the loss to Ten nesee," Price said after the loss "The feeling in the loc kor room after the game and the type of character we have - we will he hack." Washington State will face another tough test against the Ducks. Oregon coach Rich Brooks has had lus fair share of success against the Cougars, winning the last three games Price will he going into the weekend's match with a struggling offense that averages only lf> points a garni' Price acknowledges the chal lenge that stands in front of him this weekend, hut doesn't plan on making any significant changes to the team "I don't think that we need to i hangti anything,” Price said “{Oregon is) a solid football team and they have lx*en getting after us the last three years We don't like it. hut we have to do some thing about it when they get here " SOCCER Continued from Page 12 lo start doing what it tins been talking about all sea son, “The first win is the toughest," cout h David Burgee said “We've lieen close in many games and I think it’s just a matter of getting over the hump 1 still think they believe they can beat most peo ple." But having four key players injured and ques tionable for Saturday's game in Salem, the team faces Willamette, an intercollegiate team that, according to Burgee, has a strong program. “I think we are going to have a tough time," Burgee said “Willamette is a good team they have beat some pretty well known competitors But I think they can go out there and compete 1 think they can tacit Willamette " With the team searching for its first win. it could lie without defender Beth Moseley and midfielder Kim Baumsteiger. who are out with possible shin stress fractures. The women are w ithout mid fielder Becka Burrowus. who has a hip injury, defender Kiley Stemriede. who lias a muscle strain m Iwr shin, and goalkeeper Melissa i rum. who cannot make the game duo to prior arrangements "It's going to Ik* ft particularly tough game for us people that haven't normally ployed are going to have to stop up a level and play great soc cer in order for 11s to pull a victory over Willamette.'’ Burgee said. Heading into Saturday's game with an 0-10-1 record, the team has struggled against intercolle giate teams that have the perks of being a fully sanctioned team. Hut despite its record, the team has come close to winning several times, including a game in which the Docks led Utah State by a goal 35 min utes into the second half, but ended up losing the game 3-1. "I think these girls are really tough mentally.'’ Burgee said “They understand this is a transition year from years past. This is tliB first year we will he taking the program up so many levels to !»• real ly competitive." The women have their first home game against Concordia College at 3:00 p.m. on Oct. 13. and follow it with three home games m as many days, starting Oct 21. %lzza Pipeline Quick Service and a Fair Price'" Score With IThese Great Specials EUGENE HOTLINE 686-5808 824 Charnelton Street The Best Pizza in Town I Any 16" one item pizza ONLY *7.00 Plus Two |2) FRFF 22 o: Soft Drinks EUGENE HOTLINE 686-5808 I VJlfci »* l\4J/PW m*e! .»|| - p pi lip ■*• * * *oOn*' lj»*Mn! .irtww, 8® Just for Lunch Any I 2' Two Item Pi/ai only$5.50 Plus One 11 j f'RFF 27 at Soft Drink umwJ -j />'; .1 rn *u ♦ GO p tn 'A< EUGENE HOTLINE 686-5808 J | r- -r r«y N. . mi I***' ttif crtTw> a*m \m\ ,m ' *.* . » » l«WO I * Deluxe Twilight Special i Any 14" Two Item Puta I only$6.50 j Plus One 11) L^rqe 22 oz Soft Drink j Valid after 9:00 p m only J EUGENE HOTLINE 686*5808 £ Pizza by the slice $.75 BEFORE 4PM $ 10.00 off any 26' Colossus Pizza
