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.
