Bellotti evaluates Ducks’ season
Coach Mike Bellotti says
Oregon’s young defense
has a very good chance
to improve in the future
By Chris Hansen
Assistant Spoits Editor
The offense was surprisingly
productive, the defense not-so sur
prisingly struggled and although
the overall record matches that of
last season’s, this was a more com
petitive team.
Those were some of Oregon
head football coach Mike Bellot
ti’s season-ending evaluations of
his football team Sunday evening,
hours before the team met for its
awards banquet.
"Could it have been better?
Yes,” Bellotti said of his team’s 6-5
overall record for the second
straight season. “There were
games over the past couple of
years, the overtime loss to Stan
ford, the last second loss to USC,
games we could have won and
maybe should have won. That is a
frustrating thing for me, and I have
to look at why those occurred.”
Chances are, what Bellotti will
find is that some of those losses, if
not most, revolve around a de
fense that hasn’t been very effec
tive the last two seasons, and once
again finds itself last in the Pacific
10 Conference.
It did slowly improve over the
course of this
season, though,
and had its
share of bright
spots, like line
backer Peter
Sirmon leading
the Pac-10 in
tackles with 104.
“I think we knew that we were
going to be young,” Bellotti said,
“where we were searching for con
sistency, and in some regards we
still are.
“It’s tough, but that is part of the
problem playing with true fresh
man and redshirt freshman and
sophomores at key positions. We
are a very young defense that has
the chance to get very much better
in the years to come.”
As for the Oregon offense, it
doesn’t need to improve too
much, it just needs to remain as is,
something Bellotti was surprised
it was able to do this season.
“I was encouraged at the devel
opment of our offense, consider
ing the offensive line and the quar
terback positions,” said Bellotti,
referring to the question marks at
those two positions the team faced
coming into the season.
“We knew that we had some
youth there that was going to have
to step forward, and I think they
did a very, very nice job of keep
ing us as one of the most produc
tive offenses in the Pac-10 and in
the nation.”
“Going into this thing our first
goal was a winning season,” Bel
lotti said. "Achieving that goal is
a very positive statement. We have
put together four consecutive win
ning seasons, and I don’t think
anyone else in the conference has
won more games than we have in
the past four years. ”
At the team banquet on Sunday
night, tailback Saladin McCul
lough was named Oregon’s most
outstanding player. Some of the
other award winners were comer
back Eric Edwards, who was
named most improved player; tail
back Kevin Parker, who was
named most inspirational, and of
fensive tackle Marco Aguirre, who
was named top newcomer.
Bowl: At-large bid depends on two games
■ Continued from Page 7
State defeats Arizona, Oregon could be a frontrunner
for the at-large bid to the Insight.com Bowl (formerly
the Copper Bowl), which is the most attractive of the
four bowl opportunities remaining.
The Las Vegas Bowl selection committee held a
lengthy meeting late Monday afternoon to narrow its
search, but Moos said he assumes the committee will
only be deciding on a team from the Western Athletic
Conference, which has a contract with the bowl.
Branan Allison, a representative from the bowl who
was in attendance at Oregon’s loss to Arizona State,
said Monday that Oregon is being given “serious con
sideration” for the at-large bid to the game on Dec. 20.
Officials at the Motor City Bowl could not be
reached for comment.
