You need it to get ready for a season. Physically it tells you whether or not you are in shape and can handle it.” Both players were also in agreement when asked if fall camp became easier with time. "It doesn’t matter how many years you’ve been here,” Wiggins said. "You are going to get tired during two-a-days and it is going to wear you down.” Wheaton took it a step further, saying that older players have a responsibility to take leadership roles in practice. “It’s harder as you get older,” he said. "You have the freshman guys looking up to you so you have to work harder because you have to set an example and get them up to the level of Pac-10 play.” “I think they have to set exam ples,” concurred Bellotti. “Not only helping younger players learn specific things but also work ethic. How they practice, the intensity they need, the fo cus, the concentration, every thing.” try to win a starting role. “We got four good tailbacks right now and another one com ing in,” claimed Latimer. “I know that the coach is going to put the best one out there. So I have to do what I got to do dur ing practice to get the spot." And Bellotti was quick to re mind that the roster has not been cast in stone just yet. “I hope that the attitude and the effort and the energy is the same for both of them,” he said. “I asked the team to do that and told them there were no guaran tees and that all positions were open. The depth chart won’t be made until we put the pads on and see who can play football. I am hoping and expecting and I think am seeing great effort by everybody.” The pressure, the heat, the sweat, all lead to high intensity level that at times has caused tempers to flare. Just a natural oc currence during two-a-days ac cording to Wiggins. “That is just everybody work ing hard,” he said. “We want to fly around and we want to hit each other.” And quarterbacks and kickers take notice. Wiggins, who is 6-4 and 315 pounds, and the rest of his offensive line buddies are well aware that their group seems to be involved in the more taxing contact drills a bit more often than others. “We always joke about that,” Wiggins said. “It is harder for some of us who are out here banging together more than other positions. But everybody works hard. If one position hits a little more often than so be it. Some positions will run a little more.” But not all players look at two a-days as torture. Some look at it as opportunity. For Wiggins and Wheaton, two veteran players with starting positions locked up, fall camp is a necessary evil. But to players like freshman run ning back Derien Latimer, this is the time to impress coaches and Wheaton’s approach was a lit tle rougher. “We’re together all day and we get tired of each other,” he said. “So any little thing can piss you off.” Bellotti keeps this in mind as he tries to keep the monotony of the two-a-days to a minimum and reward the players for work ing hard. “There are a lot of things we do,” he said. “Some of it fun and some of it not so fun. You try to vary practice a little bit. But you also try to challenge them by re minding them that the season is only three weeks away. Remind them of what we need to do to get better.” “Or,” added Bellotti, “you re mind them of the second half of the Cotton Bowl.” The Ducks open their season Aug. 31 on the road against Fres no State. NFL Rookie scores only Dallas TD ■ Continued from Page 5 “We most definitely have to get serious now,” Smith said. “We need to get the first units to start working together.” Dallas placekicker Chris Boniol missed field goal attempts of 49 and 32 yards in the first half. Third-string quarterback Jason Garrett finally got the Cowboys on the board in the fourth period with an 18-yard scoring pass to rookie Stepfret Williams. The replay rule experiment was used once by Dallas coach Barry Switzer late in the first half on a sideline pass. Referee Bemie Kukar ruled the 9-yard catch by Graham stood as called. New England coach Bill Par cells successfully challenged an incompletion ruling in the third quarter on a 33-yard pass to Gra ham.
