Arizona St. University vs. University of Oregon
Quarterback
Andrew Walter
— Brian Smith
Arizona State’s Andrew Walter has given the
Ducks plenty of bad memories.
The senior quarterback has torpedoed the
Ducks in the last two meetings, throwing for
a combined 852 yards and seven touchdowns.
“I think that he has got to be licking his
chops based on the way he has played
against us the last couple of years,” Ore
gon head coach Mike Bellotti said. “It’s
something that we have to look at and
say, ‘How can we change that?’ We
need to have a better pass rush and
better coverage.”
With his career-high-tying five
touchdown passes against Iowa on
Sept. 18, Walter set a school record
for career touchdown passes and now
has 67 in his time at ASU.
Heisman-hopeful Walter has a knack for
spreading the ball around, which is nothing new
to the Sun Devils, who completed passes to 27 dif
ferent receivers in the past two years.
So far this season, ASU junior wideout Derek Ha
has been Walter’s favorite go-to guy. With 112.8
ing yards per game, Hagan ranks second in the
Pac-10 and sixth in the nation. Of his 31 catches this year,
22 have resulted in a first down or a touchdown.
Twelve different Sun Devils have caught passes this year,
and a total of six players have made touchdown catches on
the season.
Walter looks forward to the Oregon game, he said, even
though Autzen is the toughest place for him to play.
“It has turned into one of those games (that we look forward
to),” Walter said. “Ever since the game two years ago, that was
a fun one.”
Defensive End
Chris Solomona
Oregon’s defense will be under the microscope on
Saturday.
The Ducks were torched for a combined 104
points in their previous two meetings with Arizona
Stateas the Sun Devils conducted an aerial assault on
the Oregon secondary.
While a bulk of the responsibility falls on the
shoulders of the Duck defensive backs, it’s up to
Chris Solomona and the rest of the defensive line
to provide some kind of a pass rush.
Solomona came up big last week against Idaho,
returning an interception 34 yards for a touch
down. The defensive line pressured Idaho quarter
back Michael Harrington all day long, forcing him to
make several mistakes.
“It was a great job of disguising coverage,” Ore
gon head coach Mike Bellotti said of the
Solomona interception. "But it was also a good
job of getting pressure right in Harrington’s
face. Chris on the zone-blitz drop and (defen
sive tackle) Robby Valenzuela forced Harring
ton to throw it early. It was a great catch by
Chris.”
Oregon has also gotten solid play from
defensive end Devan Long and middle
linebacker Jerry Matson of late.
Long leads the Pacific-10 Confer
ence with 7.5 tackles for loss and is
1.5 sacks away from cracking Ore
gon’s all-time top-10 list.
Matson is second on the team with
21 tackles, including a 13-tackle performance against Okla
homa.
Oregon will need a complete defensive effort if it is to have a
chance against Arizona State in the Ducks’ conference opener.
