So it’s tougher in that sense to get a feel for Stanford, but it just means you have to prepare a little more and watch more film.” Oregon senior fullback Josh Line remembers being on the sidelines for Oregon’s 63-28 victory over Stanford at Autzen Stadium in 1998. He recalls watching quarter back Akili Smith pass for 357 yards and four touchdowns and admiring tailback Reuben Droughns as he rushed for 214 yards and three touchdowns. But Line didn’t step foot onto the field that day. He was only a freshman, and says it’s a different feeling getting ready for a Pac-10 team he hasn’t faced before. “Aside from a few guys, none of us have played against Stan ford,” Line said. “I think this is going to be a really good test for us, probably the best test of the season so far.” The Ducks will face a Cardinal team that is coming off a 45-39 loss at home to Washington State. Stanford, with the help of quar terback Randy Fasani and run ning back Brian Allen, is out to avenge its only loss of the season and attempt to put the first dent in the Oregon loss column in the process. Along with the motivation of playing a team ranked in the top 10 comes the incentive of ending the nation’s longest current home winning streak, which Oregon owns with 23 straight wins at Autzen Stadium. Stanford will need to limit its turnovers to give itself a chance to win, as that’s been the area that the Ducks have taken advantage of most. Oregon leads the Pac-10 and is currently tied for second in the country in turnover margin with plus-14. “The number one thing is elimi nating mistakes,” Willingham said. “You have to make fewer mistakes than your opponent and not make critical mistakes that turn into points. If we do make a mistake, then someone has to step up and rectify that mistake.” “Aside from a few guys, none of us have played against Stanford. I think this is going to be a really good test for us, probably the best test of the season so far.” Josh Line Oregon senior fullback As for the Ducks, they know the hard part of their season has ar rived. After three straight road games and three straight lopsided victories over the likes of Utah State, Arizona and California, the Cardinal should prepare them for what lies ahead: Stanford at home; No. 19 Wash ington State on the road; Arizona State at home; No. 4 UCLA on the road; and, three weeks of noth ingness later, Oregon State at home. “We’re having fun, but you have to stay focused,” Line said. “To be honest with you, from now on, it’s all uphill. We haven’t really played anybody that poses a legit imate challenge to us. Stanford is the first of many. “It’s all business now. The best is yet to come.” Jude continued from page 3B in the 1930s and the most recent occurring in, yep, you guessed it, 1964. Nov. 2,1964: Stanford comes into the Webfoots’ home and trounces all over Oregon’s Rose Bowl dreams with a last-second field goal by Braden Beck, a left footed placekicker. One excuse was Berry’s aching legs, injured the previous week against Washington, which aided him in a dismal 4-of-13 passing performance against Stanford. Put more simply, though, Casanova said: “They just kicked the hell out of us.” Let’s hope Oregon’s learned its lesson and doesn’t allow any “kicking” on Saturday at Autzen. Just to add insult to injury, Stan ford leads the all-time series against Oregon 41-21-1. Of course, Stanford doesn’t get any significant edge Saturday be cause of its successful history against the Webfoots. But for the sake of argument, let’s just hope the Ducks have tak en their share of history classes. Adam Jude is the sports editorfor the Oregon Daily Emerald.
