(AP) — T he Pacific-10 C onfer
ence, finding m erit in O klahom a's
com plaints about the officiating in
its loss to O regon, issued a one-
gam e suspension M onday to the
officiating crew and the instant re
play officials w ho worked the game
and an apology to the Sooners.
The Ducks won the gam e 34-33
after scoring tw o touchdow ns in
the final 72 seconds.
“ Errors clearly were m ade and
not corrected, and for that we apolo
gize to the University o f O klahom a,
coach Bob Stoops and his play
ers," Pac-10 C om m issioner Tom
Hansen said in a statem ent. "They
played an outstanding college foot
ball gam e, as did Oregon, and it is
regrettable that the outcom e o f the
contest was affected by the offici
ating.”
A fter the S o o n e rs’ p rac tice
M onday night, Stoops said the
apology brought him no satisfac
tion.
“At least they have reacted to it
and tried. Truly there can be no
am ends to it and it ca n ’t be cor
rected," Stoops said.

an onside kick that gave the Ducks

Hansen said the onside kick was
touched by an O regon player b e
fore it had traveled the required 10
yards, and, therefore, the ball should
have been aw arded to Oklahom a.
The video also show s an O klahom a
player actually recovered the ball,
although that aspect o f the play
was not review able under the in

having the officials involved in the

W eiberg responded with a state

would stand.
“There is no provision under
N CA A or conference rules for a

changed as a result o f officiating

be,” he said.

“T he fact that the errors on the

(A P) - New O rleans Saints running back
and H eism an Trophy w inner Reggie Bush
insisted Friday he and his family have done
nothing wrong, responding to allegations
that they accepted gifts, money and other
benefits worth more than $ 100,000 from two
m arketing agents during his career at South
ern California.
“I'm not w orried about any o f these allega
tions or anything like that, because I know
w hat the truth is, like 1 said from day one,”
B u sh sa id . “ O n c e th e sm o k e c le a rs ,
ev ery b o d y 's going to see we did nothing
w rong.”
Y a h o o .c o m re p o rte d T h u rs d a y th at
M ichael M ichaels, a m arketing agency inves
tor and current Bush m arketing agent Mike
O m stein supplied Bush and his family with
gifts w hile he was still at USC.
The NCAA prohibits student-athletes and
their families from receiving extra benefits
from agents or their representatives. Any
im proper benefits could lead to N CA A sanc
tions against USC and retroactively cost Bush
his college eligibility and H eism an Trophy.
Bush responded to questions about the
report much the same as he did when the
allegations o f im proper benefits first were
reported earlier this year.
"O bviously it does affect you ju st because
it is out there," Bush said. “ But at the same
tim e, I know th ere's nothing to worry about.
It m akes you want to go out there right away
and tell your side o f the story. Show every
body the facts, the truth. But you c a n 't do
that. T hat w ouldn’t be the right way to do it.”
