Respect at stake for Bruins ■ When UCLA takes on ASU in the Rose Bowl this weekend, respect and a Pac-10 title will be in balance for both teams By Peter Hockaday Oregon Daily Emerald The UCLA Bruins are wounded, and they’re licking those wounds with all the ferocity they can muster. Humiliated by the Oregon Ducks in front of a national television au dience, held to minus-9 rushing yards and blown out of the Top-10, UCLA is on damage control one week later. Not a good time to meet a 3-0 Ari zona State team. “You can go from No. 6 in the na tion to last in the Pac-10 real fast and that’s exactly what happened,” Bru ins head coach Bob Toledo said. “ [Arizona State’s] playing very well, they're getting better and they have their passing game going now. ” But the Bruins have one weapon that they didn’t have against Ore gon: Corey Paus. Paus, UCLA’s start ing quarterback before he was in jured against Alabama, will be healthy for Saturday’s game, and will start, according to Toledo. The game will also mark the re turn of Arizona State’s top thrower, Ryan Kealy. The senior signal-caller is ranked in the top five all-time at Arizona State in passing yards, passes completed and passing touchdowns. He returned from a two-game sus pension against Utah State last week and went 4-of-9 passing for 89 yards, including a 43-yard touch down strike to Todd Heap. Kealy is still listed as second on the Sun Devils’ depth chart behind redshirt freshman Jeff Krohn. Saturday’s game is all about re spect. The Bruins are looking to avoid the tailspins of 1999 and 1996, while the Sun Devils are look ing to restore respect in a fading football program. Neither team is going to be happy with a loss. “I'm looking forward to playing UCLA - a talented, strong team,” Arizona State head coach Bruce Snyder said. “We need to play a game like this now to really see where we are.” The Sun Devils haven't been tru ly tested, with unimpressive wins over San Diego State and Colorado ( ( You can go from No. 6 in the nation to last in the Pac-10 real fast and that’s exactly what happened. Bob Toledo Coach State, and one blowout victory against Utah State. UCLA, mean while, already has three tough games under its belt. Also, the Bruins play in the Rose Bowl after playing in a hostile Eu gene environment last week. UCLA has now lost six straight road games, dating back to 1998. The game will be a turning point for both programs. If UCLA can win, it will stay in the hunt for a Pacific 10 Conference title. If Arizona State wins, it will join a slate of evenly matched Pac-10 teams, all in search of one prize: the Rose Bowl. “Everything is Just Ducky at Quackers!” Breakfast • Lunch • Dinner Cocktails • Domestics • Imports • Micros Pool Tables • Video Games • Darts • Lottery Games Satellite Sports (Every Legal Package Known to Man & Duck!)
