Football notes continued from page 7 “He loves football so much,” Snyder said. “I think he is looking at whether he should continue.” If Kealy is indeed done, his ca reer stats would put him fourth on the Arizona State career yardage list, as he was the starting quarter back in 32 of 34 games. He has completed 477 of 859 passes for 6,562 yards and thrown for 46 touchdowns. The starting duties will belong to senior Chris Goodman, at least until redshirt freshman Jeff Krohn recovers from mononucleosis. Another injury to report from Saturday’s Arizona State-UCLA game was Bruin running back De Shaun Foster’s broken right hand. At press time, his status was un known. So coach, was it loud or what? Trying to be calm and subdued after Saturday’s game, Washington head coach Rick Neuheisal down played the loudness of the Autzen Stadium crowd. He had heard all about the fren zied fanatics, but said he didn’t come away too impressed. “I just didn’t think it was as in timidating as people said,” Neuheisal told reporters after the game. “We didn’t play very well, but I don’t think the noise was the issue.” That was Saturday. On Sunday, his view had changed. “It was extreme,” Neuheisal told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. “[Fullback] Pat Conniff told me on the plane ride back home that he couldn’t hear a word the whole game.” Neuheisal mentioned that the next time Washington prepares for a game at Autzen, he will blare those speakers during practice much louder and have his players wear ear plugs. Congrats, you’ve just won a road game Down in Berkeley, Calif., the Washington State Cougars were ec static. When the final horn sound ed for its 21-17 victory over Califor nia, the Cougars raced over to the corner of Memorial Stadium to be with all of their fans. The players proceeded to soak up the win by singing the Washington State fight song with their supporters. It was the Cougars’ first Pac-10 road win since they knocked off the Huskies on Nov. 22, 1997 — the year they went to the Rose Bowl. “It’s like we’ve turned the cor ner,” running back Adam Hawkins told the Seattle P-I. “It’s like the mis fortune in the past is gone.” It could... go... all... the... WAY! There was an unexpected run ning back at the Oregon State game last Saturday. It didn’t have a number nor wear a helmet, but it drew some of the biggest cheers on an afternoon that the Beavers upset the then-No. 8 USC Trojans. And, it made its national appear ance during the opening theme song of “SportsCenter” on Saturday night. It was a possum. During the first half, the possum sneaked onto the field at the Oregon State end zone and took off for its — slow—jaunt across field. The crowd immediately got be hind the possum, which kept mov ing along the 10-yard line, the 20,30 and then the 40. Minutes kept pass ing and the possum kept moving. It reached the 50... the other 40... and then the 30. By now the Reser Stadi um fans were going nuts. The possum kept on chugging. The 20... the 15... the 10.... the 5... and finally... the end zone. Trojan head coach Paul Hackett signaled for the touchdown. The scoreboard showed the instant — and slower than slow-motion — replay. And as for the possum? For its ef forts, it was picked up and carried off by its tail.
