Ngata also blocked an extra point in the contest Notes continued from page 5A Wojciechowski’s “Bring a coat and tie to the Yale Club” segment, and fourth in ESPN.corn’s “Heis man Watch.” But the people don’t agree with the experts. Smith is ranked ninth in CNNSI.corn’s online “People’s Heisman” poll with 26,176 votes, 314 behind No. 8 Charles Rogers. Seneca Wallace leads that poll with 41,090 votes.

The Ducks, who are ranked at No. 6 in both national polls, are No. 7 in the mock BCS rankings of college 1 Show Hours Saturday, October 19 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Sunday, October 20 11:00 am to 5:00 pm Fashion Shows Saturday, October 19 11:00 am & 2:30 pm Sunday, October 20 12:30 pm & 3:00 pm Sponsored by 9,104.1 FH Held at the Lane County Fair & FALL 2002 EMERALD CITY BCS.com.
