The Huskies also turned the ball over six times. Although the UCLA-Cal score didn’t show it, the Golden Bears pose a formidable defense. Presea son All-American defensive end Andre Carter leads the Cal defense with 36 tackles and six quarterback sacks this season. Also highlighting the second-ranked rushing defense in the Pac-10 is safety Nnamdi Aso mugha, who was named the nation al defensive Player of the Week. use (3-3,0-3) at Stanford (2-4, 1-2) Two desperate teams face off Sat urday, battling to stay out of the Pac 10 cellar. It wasn’t long ago when Stanford was in the Rose Bowl and Southern California was the favorite to win this year’s conference crown. Now, both teams have lost three straight and dwell at the bottom of the Pac-10 standings. “These are two teams that are struggling right now,” USC Head Coach Paul Hackett said. “The ques tion is how we’re going to be able to respond and bounce back.” In three losses, Stanford was only able to produce 23 points. The Car dinal ranks last in the Pac-10 in of fense and seventh in defense. Still, the Cardinal offers a dangerous of fense with many options for quar terback Chris Lewis. Quarterback Carson Palmer and tailback Sultan McCullough lead the Trojan offense. Arizona State (4-2,1-2) at Washington State (3-3,1-2) The Sun Devils look to pick up their fifth win of the season against woeful Washington State. It won’t be easy, as Arizona State has won only five games in the Palouse since 1967. The Cougars hold the Pac-lO’s top scoring defense and arguably the conference’s top quarterback in Steve Smith continued from page 7B career, he was recruited to play bas ketball by schools such as San Diego State and Fresno State. But Smith couldn’t turn down an offer to play football for the Ducks. “When I first came up here it was kind of hard to adjust with the rain,” he said. Upon joining the team, Smith quickly became friends with team mate Rashad Bauman. It was a unique friendship because the two were competing for the same posi tion on the field. “I played behind him all my freshman year, but I kind of knew that I wasn’t going to play over him, so it wasn’t a big deal to me,” Smith said. “He helped me go over some plays — he’d tell me ‘this is what you should do here.’ “We still do that. We were doing it last night, as a matter of fact, while we were watching film, breaking down the receivers and all that.” Since Smith was shifted to the right corner earlier this season, he and Bauman start on opposite sides of the field. They also extended their friendship off the field and be came roommates. “We just clicked out of the gates,” Bauman said. “We were best friends our first year, and it’s been that way ever since. We slowly bonded while competing for the same position, that got us to grow closer to each other. “It’s good to know the person who you're playing with. I know his game completely, in and out. He brings a lot to the table and comple ments our defense really well.” For now, Smith’s focus is solely on playing football. He talks about pur suing a career in the NFL rather than trying to make a basketball comeback. “I can’t really play basketball any more; you’ve got to take care of your body,” Smith said. “I still love it to death, but I’d choose football over basketball now if I had to choose.” A sociology major, Smith said he’d like to be a counselor if a pro football career doesn’t pan out. One of his un cles works for the Boys and Girls Club in Los Angeles. When the Ducks faced the Trojans last Saturday, he knew about 40 adolescents who came to the game with his uncle. Smith savored Oregon’s win over USC because when he was in Los Angeles, he was able to see almost all of his close family. While there’s not another game near Long Beach set on the Ducks’ schedule, Smith has his eye on Janu ary 1, 2001. He hopes that fate, hard work and a little luck will bring him — and about 60 of his closest friends —back to the Los Angeles area. “I wouldn’t mind going to the Rose Bowl because my whole fami ly would be there,” he said. “I’m looking forward to it, actually. ” Jason Gesser. That still hasn’t added up to many wins this season. Besides an upset over Cal earlier in the season, Washington State has struggled against most opponents. Backup Sun Devil quarterback Griffin Goodman has been stagger ingly inconsistent in filling in for in jured Ryan Kealy. Against Cal, the senior junior college transfer passed for almost 400 yards. In last week’s loss to Washington, he threw only 32.
