IN BRIEF
USC ends season at UCLA;
BCS ramifications abound
Should Pete Carroll’s TYojans beat
rival UCLA at the Los Angeles Colise
um on Saturday, they’ll definitely
play in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 4 for a
shot at an unprecedented third
straight national championship.
With No. 1 USC (11-0 overall, 7-0
Pacific-10 Conference) and No. 2
Texas (11-0, 8-0 Big XII) the only
unbeaten Division I teams in the
country, the BCS folks have to be
pleased because there won’t be any
thing controversial about the
national championship game.
That’s assuming, of course, that
the Trojans beat the llth-ranked
Bruins (9-1, 6-1) and the Longhorns
beat unranked Colorado (7-4, 5-3)
in the Big XII championship game
earlier Saturday.
The BCS pairings will be
announced Sunday.
“We feel very fortunate to be in this
situation at this time of year,” Carroll
said. “It’s a beautiful time to be
coaching and playing football. This is
the situation we all hope for. We all
want to get in the Rose Bowl. The
situation this year is a little different.”
Perhaps the most cherished
streak is the shortest; USC has won
six straight over the Bruins and is a
21-point favorite to make it seven.
“The rivalry means a lot,” said de
fensive end Frostee Rucker, a senior
from nearby TUstin. “I’ve been watch
ing it ever since I can remember. I
can’t say I hate them. I dislike them a
lot, let’s put it that way. It feels good
to know that since I’ve been in
school, we haven’t lost to them.”
Quarterback Matt Leinart, who
will be playing in his final regular
season game, has a different take.
“It’s not that I dislike them at all,”
he said. “It’s just a big rivalry game.
I’m friends with some of the guys
on the team. There’s no hatred be
tween the schools, I don’t think.
We’ve been doing well against them
recently. I know they want to win
badly. So do we. ”
UCLA won eight straight games
over USC before the Trojans began
their winning streak in 1999.
“I like (the winning streak) a lot,
and we’re working to hold onto it,”
Carroll said. “We have a chance to
do something good again. (But) I
don’t care about what happened in
the past. It’s about getting ready for
this week.”
USC has a 40-27-7 advantage in
the series. Both teams entered the
game with perfect records only
once, in 1952, when the Trojans
beat the Bruins 14-12.

and play hard, pretend that we are
at Mac (Court), try to block (the
crowd) out, but that is going to be
hard to do.”
A pair of sophomores lead each
team in scoring. Shan Foster is aver
aging 19.5 points per game for Van
derbilt, while Oregon is led by
Hairston with 13.3.
Last season the Ducks defeated
the Commodores 75-65 at the Pape
Jam in the Rose Garden. This year’s
Pape Jam features Oregon against
No. 12 Illinois, runner-up in last
season’s NCAA Tournament, on
Dec. 10 at 5 p.m.
“Our tests are coming,” Leunen
said. “We’ve got Vanderbilt, Illinois
and Georgetown all in a row. Those
are going to be our true preseason
tests. We are just going to play hard,
and hopefully we can play pretty
consistent to the way we have and
see what happens.”

Hockey: Key injuries have hurt team's success
Continued from page 9
continue back in Eugene as the home
team easily disposed of California
14-1. However, the Bears refused to
go quietly, pulling a 3-2 upset the fol
lowing night, a loss that Oregon play
ers said should have been avoided.
“We need to respect our
opponents,” Guffin said.
The Ducks also found themselves
without the services of forwards Matt
Olson and Brian Carr due to injuries,
which severely limited their offensive
options and wreaked havoc on
Oregon’s line combinations, making
consistency more difficult. The club
struggled to a victory in Spokane the
following weekend, Nov. 11 and 12,
defeating Gonzaga 4-3 and Washing
ton State 6-2. In the game against the
Bulldogs, three players received dis
qualification penalties, reducing an
already short bench.
“(Gonzaga) was a chippy team,
and we played a chippy game,”
Guffin said.
Oregon’s troubles continued as
they traveled to California for their fi
nal matches before the Thanksgiving
holiday. The Ducks lost one game
against Long Beach and a weekend
series with USC. The lack of firepow
er was evident as the Ducks tallied
only five goals in those three games.
The club frequently took up resi
dence in the penalty box. In the first
game of the series in Los Angeles,
tliree of the four goals scored by the
TYojans occurred during a five
minute power play that resulted from
a controversial spearing call.
“We need to get healthy,” Guffin
said, “We haven’t been fully healthy
in a month.”
The club returns home this week
end for its final weekend before win
ter break with two games at the Lane
County Ice Arena against Washing
ton State. Oregon will then take a
much-needed month off before re
suming league action and making the
push toward the Pac-8 tournament
Feb. 10-11 in Eugene and the rest of
the postseason.
