Academy in 1995.
Aside from giving rest to Ore
gon’s injured players, Bellotti
said he hopes this week turns the
team’s focus from what it has al
ready accomplished to what it is
about to.
“I’m pleased the way we played
overall,” he said. “But I think we
stopped ourselves more than we'd
like to do. In a close game, I think
that we make a big difference.”
But, Bellotti said, Oregon
may have an advantage down
the stretch because it has been
able to use many of its reserve
players in its early season
games.
"I think that’s been every posi
tive situation,” he said. “We’ve
been almost able to play our en
tire roster in our first four games.
Our reserves have all had
tremendous opportunities to get
involved with and be a part of
the team.”
Following its game with
Washington State, Oregon bat
tles No. 4 UCLA in Pasadena,
before returning home for its
homecoming game with South
ern California.
Sports brief
Sirmon likely out for
season, Bellotti says
Qypgon junior linebacker Peter
Sirmon is expected to miss the re
mainderofthe 1998 football season
after undergoing surgery to repair a
tom pectoralis major muscle near
his right shoulder, according to
head football coach Mike Bellotti.
Sirmon, who led the Pacific-10
Conference in tackles a year ago
with 115, had recorded 24 stops in
three games this season before be
ing forced to sit out the second half
of the game vs. San Jose State a
week ago and missing all of Satur
day’s 63-28 win over Stanford. His
totals included 12 tackles in this
year’s win at Texas-El Paso, and
he posted three tackles for losses
of seven, one quarterback sack and
two passes broken up this season.
The injury was first detected
during the start of fall drills in Au
gust and got progressively worse
as the year wore on.
The surgery performed at Eugene’s
Sacred Heart Hospital Monday after
noon was considered to be the best of
the two possible options, with Sir
mon expected to be able to partici
pate in spring drills. Had surgery
been needed to repair damage to the
tendon connecting the muscle to the
bone instead of the breast muscle it
self, he might have been unable to re
sume workouts until next fall.
The Walla Walla native and two
year starter was credited with 208
tackles, three fumble recoveries
and two interceptions in just more
than two seasons, was a consensus
preseason first-team all-conference
choice and was included among
the candidates for the Butkus
Award, given to the top collegiate
linebacker in the country.
He will have only one year of el
igibility remaining after redshirt
ing as a true freshman in 1995.
