Rover Steve Smith (6) would love to treat Husky quarterback Marques Tuiasosopo with
the same face first greeting that he gave Bruin sophomore quarterback Ryan McCann.
Game preview
continued from page 1
game this soon in the year could.
“It is our Pac-10 opener and al
though it is early in the Pac-10 race,
it certainly has implications down
the road,” Washington head coach
Rick Neuhdisal said. “We need to
take care of business if we expect to
be a tbam that is in the race in No
vember.”
For the Ducks, Saturday’s game
reflects a bit of a repetition from
last week.
An intense Pac-10 rivalry. A row
dy Autzen Stadium crowd. An op
ponent ranked No. 6 in the nation.
And the Ducks being three-point
favorites over its higher-ranked foe.
But while the Bruins were a team
the Ducks really wanted to beat, the
Huskies are a team the Ducks feel
they have to beat. After all, the
bragging rights to Northwest su
premacy are always huge.
So don’t expect the Ducks to have
any trouble changing gears from one
big Pac-10 game to the next.
“It’s never a tough switch for the
Huskies,” said Patu, who is tied
for-third on the school’s career
quarterback sacks chart with 19.
“Plus, we’re going to be at home, so
that’s good. Hopefully we’ll put on
a show for our fans.”
Neuheisal and his staff have had
14 days to prepare for the Ducks
due to Washington’s bye last week.
He has reviewed countless hours of
film from Oregon’s previous games,
and can analyze the Ducks’
strengths and weaknesses to a tee.
But there is one thing that he
knows he can’t prepare for: Autzen
Stadium.
“I don’t know what you do to
combat it,” said Neuheisal, of the
Ducks’ home which they’ve de
fended successfully on 17 straight
occasions. “We’ll try to invite
70,000 of our closest friends [to
practice] and see if they can scream
for us.” i
While the crowd could be Ore
gon’s biggest strength, the Ducks’
main key must be shutting down
Washington’s multi-talbnted quar
terback Marques Tuiasosopo. A
year ago, Tuiasosopo had what
Neuheisal considered his finest
outing as a Husky, when he com
pleted 17 of 21 passes for 211 yards
and three touchdowns in Washing
ton’s 34-20 victory. The Ducks,
however, were missing Patu and
tailback Reuben Droughns that day.
During the game, the Huskies got
their rushing attack going early,
which opened up its passing. Ex
pect Washington to try the same
strategy this Saturday, and try to
quiet down the sellout crowd.
Oregon, on the other hand, must
get its passing game down pact and
take some of the pressure off of tail
back Maurice Morris. He carried
the Ducks last week in their win
over the Bruins with 139 yards, but
will be zeroed-in on by the im
proved Husky defensive line.
Washington’s pass rush has already
recorded 12 sacks in three games,
with Larry Tripplett owning five of
those.
Morris doesn’t know much about
Oregon’s history with the Huskies,
but he does know that there is a big
competition between the two
teams.
“My teammates have let me
know that these schools don’t like
each other that much,” Morris said.
“So I’m not sure what to expect. I’m
just going to take it as serious as all
of the other games.”
But it sure doesn’t get much
more serious than this. Only twice
in the past 14 years has a Duck
Husky game been played when
both teams were ranked. Oregon
has won four of the past six meet
ings between the two teams, but
Washington did beat the Ducks in
Autzen twice in the ‘90s.
Traditionally, the two teams have
had several weeks to prepare for
one another, but this year marks the
first time the game has been played
in September since 1982. Still, the
early game date is not affecting the
anticipation or emotion one bit.
“This is such a huge game and
everybody who has played the
Huskies before knows how impor
tant it is to our season,” Oregon
fullback Josh Line said. “A huge ri
valry, and not only that, but it has
championship implications.”
Saturday will mark Neuheisal’s
first visit to Autzen Stadium as a
head coach. He was here in 1983 as
UCLA’s starting quarterback and in
1992 as an assistant coach for the
Bruins — winning both of those
games. He is well aware of the in
tense rivalry between the schools
due to their close proximity.
“Much has been made about the
rivalry between Washington and
Oregon,” Neuheisal said. “Now
that I am at Washington it takes on
a more significant meaning because
these are two top programs these
programs have met, and look for an
added intensity this time since
they won’t meet until Nov. 16,
2002. It will be the first time since
1944 that the two teams will go a
full year without facing each other.
“It’s another tough one going on
at home so we’re going to have to
bring it up a notch and defend the
fort again,” wide receiver Keenan
Howry said.
If this game tastes half as good as
it looks, it should leave college
football fans everywhere complete
ly satisfied.
