Steven Moore (4) and the Duck defense hope to benefit from a change in the spring game system that will pit it against the offense.

while a successful two-point play is
still two points.
There’s more to the system, but
for the players, the opportunity to
go against the other team’s best is
the real opportunity.
“We want to see the best against
the best,” cornerback Steven
Moore said. “We’re going to see a
lot of that. We’re going to keep up
the intensity.”
However, some of Oregon’s best
won’t be the on the field, and for
some of those that are, they won’t be
on the gridiron for long.
Bellotti said at Thursday’s prac
tice that wide receivers Keith
Allen and Kellen Taylor will both
be held out of the game. Allen is
questionable with a strained ham
string while Taylor did not meet
the requirements of his winter
workout program.
The Ducks will also be without
running back Kenny Washington,
who suffered an injured shoulder
in the team’s first scrimmage of
the spring.
Bellotti said an additional few
players could be kept out as well be
cause of academics, but that he
would talk to team counselors be
fore making that decision.
Linebacker Kevin Mitchell and
fullback Matt Floberg are both ex
pected to see action on the field.
Mitchell practiced for the first time
last week after sitting out because
of arthroscopic knee surgery.
Floberg returned earlier this week
after tearing his rotator cuffs in
both shoulders.
Neither truly knows how much
time he will see in the game.
“I’m just going to look to get
back into the groove,” Floberg
said. “(The rotator cuffs) feel pret
ty good. They healed pretty well
and they healed a lot faster than I
thought they would. I’ve had no

problems with them.”
Like last year, quarterbacks
Kellen Clemens and Jason Fife will
both see roughly the same amount
of action with the first-team of
fense. However, unlike last year,
what either does will most likely
not be enough for Bellotti to name
a starter.
That does take a little pressure off
both throwers’ shoulders, although
not a whole lot.
“At the same time, every prac
tice, every throw, every move that
we make out here is going into our
evaluations as quarterbacks,”
Clemens said. “It’s all going to
come to a head the second week of
fall camp, probably.”
Finally, the Ducks will also un
veil a new uniform on Friday at the
Casanova Center, just in time for
the game.
“I think everybody will be
pleased,” Bellotti said. “I don’t think
it’ll be quite the shocking revolution
that the first (uniform change) was.
This is more of an evolution. I’m
pretty excited about it and I think
the players will be too.”
