Allan Amundson and the Ducks played Texas in the 2000 Holiday Bowl, and Oregon
could be headed back to San Diego if it finishes second in the Pac-10 this season.

postseason game
Oregon is aiming for the Rose
or Holiday bowls, but could be

It may only be the middle of No
vember, but it’s not too early to think
about going bowling.
And that doesn’t mean grabbing
your eight-pound ball and throwing
it down the lane.
That means thinking about the
BGS and how college football is heat
ing up in the race for who is the best,
who will finish last and who deserves
to be smelling roses.
If bowl games were held today,
Oregop would be in the Insight Bowl
against the No. 3 team of the Big
East, which could be Virginia Tech
or West Virginia.
“We just want to win out and go to
the best bowl game we can,” line
backer David Moretti said.
The Ducks sit in a tie for fourth in
the Pacific-10 Conference with
UCLA, at 3-2, and under Pac-10
bowl arrangements, the No. 4 team
in the conference goes to the Insight
Bowl. Oregon wins the tie-breaker
over the Bruins because the Ducks
beat UCLA earlier this season.
Five teams will represent the Pac
10 in bowls this year. The Pac-10
Champion goes to the Rose Bowl on
Jan. 1, unless that team is one of the
top two in BCS standings. Then the
team would play in the Tostitos Fies
ta Bowl for the national champi
onship.
The Pae-lO’s second team will go
to the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl and
face off against the No. 3 team of the \
Big 12. The third place team in the
Pac-10 will face No. 5 of the Big Ten
in the Wells Fargo Sun Bowl. The
Pac-lO’s fifth-place team visits the
City That Never Sleeps for the Sega
Sports Las Vegas Bowl.
As for Oregon, every player would
agree that the current standings
don’t reflect anything about what
will happen in the end.
“Right now we are shooting for the *
top,” senior wide receive Keenan
Howry said. “We are shooting for the
Rose Bowl because that is what the
Pac-10 champ does and that is what
