CLEANJEANS COIN-OP LAUNDRY Conference games heat up during fifth week of play Arizona is taking baby steps toward winning a game, while UCLA looks to remain perfect in Pac-10 play Scott Archer Freelance Reporter Finally, there is a week of Pacific-10 Conference play with no non-confer ence matchups and no bye weeks for any teams. Expectations for many teams have begun to evaporate, if not disappear, since the beginning of the season that began eight weeks ago. Arizona (1-6 overall, 0-3 Pac-10) at California (3-5,1-2) If it was any other year, this game would be a yawner. But this isn't any ordinary year. California has been resurgent since the addition of JeffTedford as its head coach, and while Arizona hasn't done much of anything this season, it has be come more competitive in recent weeks. Arizona has interim coach Mike Hankwitz calling the shots, and it seems to be working. The Wildcats were only one defensive stop away from upsetting current Pac-10 unbeat en UCLA two weeks ago. California is coming off of a near upset bid against UCLA as well. Ari zona rolls into Memorial Stadium having won the last matchup between the Golden Bears and the Wildcats in a bam burner, 52-41. The Wildcats have a two-headed quarterback of sorts. Nic Costa com pleted two touchdown passes against the Bruins and Kris Heavner threw for another. Arizona should be well rested com ing off a bye week, so Hankwitz can fur ther his impression on the Wildcats. Arizona State (4-3,1-2) at UCLA (5-2,3-0) Cannon-armed Andrew Walter leads the Sun Devils into the Rose Bowl on Saturday to take on UCLA. The Bruins survived a fourth-quar ter scare from Cal last weekend, only to prevail in overtime. Arizona State has had two confidence-boosting games in both wins against Oregon and last week against North Carolina. First-year head coach Karl Dorrell has his Bruins looking to be the surprise team of the Pac-10. A tough non-con ference schedule, which includes Col orado and Oklahoma, has prepared UCLA for the enigma that is the Pac-10. Oregon State (5-2,2-1) at Washington State (6-1,3-0) Washington State continues to con trol its own destiny toward a potential Pac-10 crown, while Oregon State must bounce back after a disappoint ing loss at the hands of Washington. Oregon State, coming off a bye week in which it had two weeks to prepare for the Huskies, came out list less against an inspired Washington squad. Steven Jackson has rushed for 926 yards this season, which is good for more than five Pac-10 teams. However, he finished his day — and maybe his Heisman Trophy hopes — with 49 yards rushing on 22 carries against the Huskies. The Cougars lead the league in in terceptions with 14 but have thrown only five themselves, which is the best among the Pac-10 teams. Washington State holds the Pac-10's longest con ference winning streak at four games and has won five straight overall. Scott Archer is a freelance sports reporter for the Emerald. Conference favorites set for battle Washington and USC take aim at one another in the Pac-10's game of the week Scott Archer Freelance Reporter The biggest Pacific-10 conference game slated for play this week would have been Oregon State against Wash ington State, but the Beavers didn't hold up their end of the bargain last week and were pounded at home by a resurgent Washington team. All eyes have been moved to the USC-Washington tilt, set to take place < on Saturday in Seattle. The game will < be regionally televised on ABC. USC (6-1 overall, 2-1 Pac-10) con- 1 tinues its bid for a shot at the national 1 title. In the first Bowl Championship Series standings released this year, the 1 Trojans are ranked seventh. The Tro- 1 jans dominated Notre Dame last < week, 45-14, on national television. 1 Washington (4-3, 2-1) was out- ' gunned last year when the two ‘ squads met. It was an aerial display 1 as heavyweights Carson Palmer and i Cody Pickett tried to one-up each i >ther for the win. The Trojans came >ut on top, 41-21. Palmer threw for 148 yards and four touchdowns, vhile Pickett threw for 350 yards and hree touchdowns. ."Nobody has stopped (USC)," Washington head coach Keith jilbertson said. "They have such bal mce and diversity in their offense. So rou just hope that you can slow them lown. They are going to get the points md move the ball because that is how alented they are." icott Archer is a freelance sports eporter for the Emerald. 0113.031 lomemade tortillas - Jalisco style Open daily Daily lunch specials only $4.99* • Macho burrito dinner only $6.50* 686-9888 • 685 E.
