As part of league rules, the league splits up any bowl money amongst all 10 teams in the conference. With No. 5 Oregon State’s selection in a BCS bowl, it earns a $13.5 million pay check, and Oregon’s move up to the Holiday Bowl nets itself a $1.9 mil lion payday. No. 4 Washington, who will play 14th-ranked Purdue in the New Year’s Day Rose Bowl, will also earn $13.5 million for being a part of a BCS bowl. “Oregon State deserves to be in the BCS,” Moos said. “I think it speaks well for the conference. We took our hits as a conference and I think we came back and redeemed ourselves very well.” Another motivating factor for the Ducks in this bowl game will be the opportunity to secure the first 10 win season in Oregon football his tory. Obviously, it would have made acquiring a 10th win an easier pos sibility if Oregon would have faced a 6-5 Boston College team in the Aloha Bowl. But these Ducks know they de serve to prove that they are one of the best by beating the best. “I thought about how great a sea son we had, and not to take any thing away from the bowl games in Hawaii, but they don’t have the na tional recognition that the Holiday Bowl has,” Oregon quarterback Joey Harrington said. “Either way, it was a chance to get a 10th win.” * Texas will certainly provide Ore gon with a formidable opponent and give the Ducks a chance to - avenge its devastating 23-13 Civil War defeat to the Beavers. “The tradition of Texas football is long and awesome,” Bellotti said. “We are proud to represent the Pac 10 in the Holiday Bowl and get the taste of our last game out of our mouths. “I expect a great football game. ” Harrington continued from page 5B lection in the Holiday Bowl. He looks confident. He sounds deter mined. He looks like a quarterback who wants to go down to San Diego and perform on a national stage to help ease the pain of a Rose Bowl less New Year’s Day. “It’s a chance to get that sour taste out of our mouths,” Harring ton said. “I know a lot of people, myself included, were very disap pointed with how the regular sea son ended.” And now Harrington and his crew can do something about it. The Texas Lorghoms await and “The General” is ready to lead the way. “This is a game I’ve been wanting to go to for a couple of years now, and I finally get the chance,” Har rington said.
