University of Oklahoma vs. University of Oregon
Running Back
Adrian Peterson
Adrian Peterson’s second-place finish in the 2004 Heisman
Ttophy voting is nothing but the past after this season for
the sophomore tailback. With more than 900 rushing yards
fewer than last year’s total, 2005 has been a less impres
sive year for the Palestine, Texas, native but it has added
to his character nonetheless.
With 1,024 rushing yards in a season that saw
him sit out a game and record less than 10 car
ries in four others, Peterson further solidified
this year that he is one of the nation’s premier
running backs — and he’s still an underclass
man. At 6-foot-2, 218 pounds, Peterson is a scary
sight for defenses running out of the I-formation.
Peterson’s open-field speed combined with his
strength and agility make him capable of reel
ing off a big run on any given play. Fans will
see him in action on Sundays in the near fu
ture but he still has two years of eligibility
left to perfect his game.
Coming off an ankle sprain that sidelined him
early in the season, Peterson returned to being his
reliable self for coach Bob Stoops’ offense. Peter
son had just less than 30 carries in each game he
started and churned out more than 200 yards
in two games this year including a 220 yard
outing against Tlilsa. In the same game,
he scored a season-high three touch
downs. Peterson eclipsed the 100-yard
mark in the final four games of the sea
son. He saved his best game for last
rushing for a season-high 237 yards
in Oklahoma’s regular season finale
4 against Oklahoma State.

Peterson was allowed just un
der 200 yards last year by the
Oregon defense and will have
to put up similar numbers in
order to give the Sooners the
edge on offense in the
Holiday Bowl.
— Scott J. Adams
Placekicker
Paul Martinez
One of the biggest question marks heading into the season was the
placekicking of Paul Martinez. The punter-tumed-kicker quickly an
swered doubters by netting 11 of 12 field goal attempts in Oregon’s
first two games.
Early in the season it was Martinez who bailed out the
Oregon offense which failed to finish drives with touch
downs. Ten of his first 12 field goal attempts were within
40 yards, as the Ducks produced only five offen
sive touchdowns in both games combined.
Martinez tied the school record for makes
and attempts (five of six) in the season
opener at Houston and followed that by
breaking his own record and tying a Pacific-10
Conference record with six field goals in as
many attempts a week later against Montana. He
garnered Pac-10 Conference Player of the Week
honors after each game, as well as after Week 11, when Martinez
kicked the game-winning field goal to help Oregon defeat
Washington State.
Despite a thigh injury that sidelined him for three games
this season, Martinez has made 19 of 24 field goals, which
currently marks him fifth in makes and percentage
(79.2). Martinez didn’t qualify for any of the con
ference statistics due to lack
of games played; howev
er, he would rank second
in the conference in field
goals made and percent
age this season.
Martinez also leads the
Ducks in scoring with 81 points,
tied for ninth on the school’s sin
gle-season list. That would rank eighth in the
conference if Martinez were eligible.
No matter how difficult the situa
tion, Martinez shows up. Oregon
has to hope that if its offense
stalls in the bowl game, Mar
tinez will come up clutch
once again.
