FOOTBALL OREGON VS WASHINGTON STATE Cougars limp into Saturday’s game ■ WASHINGTON STATE: The injured Cougars look to their run defense to stop Oregon Saturday By Pete Schneider S0Oft§ One of the only blemishes on Oregon'* Rom Bowl season last year was an ugly, injury-plagued joss to the Washington Slate Cougars in Pullman. On Satur day, the Cougars will come to Aut/en Stadium, and this time around, it is Washington State that is banged up The Cougars (3-3 overall. 2-1 in I’m 10) will !«■ without three key players when they take on the 12th-ranked Ducks Tailhat k Derek Sparks, middle linebacker James Darling and reserve free safety Derek Henderson are all listed as questionable, but at cord - mg to Cougar head coach Mike Price, they will not play. "1 think rnv main concern nght now is the health of our team." Price said "The CSC loss last week was physical and we're all bruised up It i one erns me that we play liie No 12 team in the ( ountry without three of our main starters If Washington State is to enjov any offensive sut I ess on Satur day. the Cougar running attai k w ill have to figure out some way to gain yards against the Ducks* stingy rushing defense The Cougars rank ninth in the Pacif ic U) Conference in total rushing offense and is not helped by the loss of Sparks, who has been averaging ;1H H rushing yards [>er game. The Cougars must look to either senior Frank Madu or freshman Jason Clayton to fill m for Sparks Neither one ha* any IWS starts or has proved that he can run the hail effectively “We are not the best running football team right now." Price said "We are just going to have to rail running ploys Cal didn't run the ball very well against Ore gon last week, but they only ran 11 rushing play s I think we have a full complement of running plays ones that will work to choose from." The loss of Henderson in Washington State's fifth-ranked pass defense s»s omlarv dot's not bode well for the Cougars Hen derson ranks third for Washing ton State in tackles and was the secondary's emotional leader Sophomore Ken Mon*, who has no starts this season, will fill in for Henderson A bright spot for Washington State is quarterback Chad Davis The ft-foot-2-inch junior is aver aging 227.7 yards of total offense this season and trails only Ore gon's tailback Ricky Whittle in Pac-tO total offense, Davis has thrown only three interceptions this year and has hooked up w ith favorite receiver. Eric Moore (4S.33 yards per game) to con tribute to more than 1.200 pass ing yards this season. Washington State is fifth in the Pac-10 in rush defense and will look to sophomore Phillip Glover to fill in for injured run-stopper Darting "I am pleased wtih Phillip (Glover)'* performance, hui ! think he c an plnv belter." said Prii e He (.on took brilliant at tunes and often shows flashes of greatness, but at other times he ran look like a young, inexperi enced player." The Cougar rushing defense statistus are a hit misleading, considering the fact that the unit gave up 428 yards on the ground to Nebraska earlier in the season. The defense has only allowed sis rushing touchdowns over the Inst 10 games, dating (>m k to last sea son Priiu savs that the team is not fueling any pressure right now and that the 12th ranked Din ks have more to lose on Saturday "We re talking about one game and one game only against Ore gon," he said. “They am the Pm 10 defending champions and they need this game just as bad ly as we do for theirchances to stay m the Hose Howl r.u e 1 think the pressure is on them * It w as important during the practice week for Price to caution his team not expect the same type of Oregon team that was in Pull man lost year. "Ust year we fat ed a team that was beat up and perhaps a little discouraged." he said. "The Ducks this year an' a totally dif ferent hall club. This team is healthy, spirited, and has a win ning attitude, it is also a much more confident team than we saw last season.” / \/><V h'lh O /»’/ /V. \ s/ / C >(>/ />. \ / / CAWI S WC Sc /\/ / V \'//>/ O />/S/V .tt / /;/./ <»/// .ihoii! \\ \Ks \l\ s/’i )/</ s M \KM //\c; Cl Ml l< i uxnouhi Cl Ml R /1 V\ / \/K/ /*/\/ \/ i/M////’ Ai />..
