The coaching staff raved
about Alie’s work behind
the scenes last spring. But
during the public showcase
at Autzen Stadium, the quar-
terbacks not wearing No. 8
were uninspiring; Alie was
3-for-8 passing for 18 yards
and a touchdown in the
spring game.

During the Ducks’ run to
the College Football Playoff,
Alie served as the holder on
placekicks and the point man
on Oregon’s two-point con-
versions (two converted runs,
two converted passes).
The coaches have done
their best to divide the snaps
evenly through 11 spring
practices. Helfrich said the
experience Lockie and Alie
have accrued in the system
allows them to get more reps
at times.
