Connecting Eugene seeks Lariviere’s
involvement to discuss development
Franklin bains
news reporter
Connecting Eugene, a local group working with ASUO President Amelie Rousseau,
is changing its tactics in its opposition of the
Riverfront development.
During the summer, Connecting Eugene
tried to appeal a Riverfront development permit extension with the city and the Oregon
Land Use Board of Appeals.
The permit extension granted those working on the development an additional three
years to the 20 years they had previously.
The group lost both appeals to the permit extension and withdrew based on the
LUBA’s decision, which concluded that a
23-year-old permit was not significantly different from a 20-year-old permit. Paul Cziko, a
University graduate student and member of
the group, said Connecting Eugene abandoned
its appeal because fighting administrative
systems wasn’t worth its time and money.
This year, Connecting Eugene will instead
focus its attention on making sure the plans
comply with land use laws and checking the
contract between the University and the Oregon
University System.
A big part of the group’s plan this
year will be to include University President Richard Lariviere in the discussion.

Fire Station 13 responds to University and neighborhood calls for assistance

news reporter
Last Wednesday at 8 a.m., the garage
doors of Eugene’s Fire Station 13 flew up. A
red fire engine roared out the driveway with
its flashers blazing, and an onboard crew
prepped for action.
This was no reason for alarm, however, because after pulling out of the
driveway about five feet, the engine
slowly pulled back in and had it systems checked, and all the equipment on
board accounted for by the station’s oncoming
crew. It was only a test, a routine done every
morning by oncoming engine crews
to ensure that, in the case of a real
emergency, the engine company can
respond appropriately.

news reporter
The drums of partisanship were audible
Thursday night in Portland as gubernatorial candidates John Kitzhaber and Chris
Dudley fortified their cases to be Oregon’s
next governor.
The first and possibly only debate between the candidates found them somewhat
antagonistic toward one another in their
talking points, with Dudley trying to frame
Kitzhaber as a defender of the status quo,
and Kitzhaber attempting to portray Dudley
as a new face beholden to the interests of
the wealthy.
The two men did agree on a number of
issues, such as establishing a rainy-day fund
for the state, modifying the capital gains tax

Dudley characterized himself as the
candidate of change and job development
through private-sector investment and the
reduction of government. Dudley summarized his main philosophical difference from
former governor Kitzhaber by referencing
the age-old private investment versus public
investment argument.
“My opponent John believes politicians
and government create jobs; I believe it’s
business owners and entrepreneurs,” Dudley said. “Our past two governors have had
more than 60 years in political experience,
and yet look where we sit.”
Kitzhaber redoubled his effort to establish himself as the candidate of the middle
class, environmental conservation and
clean energy. He made a dedicated effort to
portray Dudley’s economic stance as not unlike those that caused the federal economic
crisis of 2008.

“(Dudley) is proposing an $800-million

the 200,000 Oregonians who are out of work
today,” Kitzhaber said. “(W)e need to create

being reinvested in Oregon.”

The Dirt Mopper | mark costigan
Experiencing globalization first-hand is eye-opening
The safari-style truck took three
hours to trudge through the sand dunes.
We arrived at Cabo Polonio at midday, with the sun directly overhead. Surrounded on three sides by the Atlantic
Ocean, the town seemed to have been
plucked out of an ’80s foreign flick.
Each building was constructed with old
plywood and recycled lumber, using vibrant paintings to cover every blemish.
Each dwelling had a name.
There were no power lines.
Running water was 40 miles away.
Not a single American product or
advertisement was in sight.
Cabo Polonio exhibited a pure, raw
culture: the fact that they will miss
the newest episode of “Jersey Shore”
is as strange a thought as math to
a journalist.
The single bar in town was made out
of plants — its owner a blind, bearded
old man who waited on customers by
candlelight. The fish served in the restaurants were caught and filleted within hours of dinner. The townspeople
sifted through each other’s garbage
daily — making treasure out of another
person’s trash.
My arrival in Rosario, Argentina,
was met with a different feeling. Unlike Cabo Polonio, a fantasy paradigm
sustained by a tourist economy, Rosario has undoubtedly been tainted by the
big, yellow arch and the orange swoosh.
However, it has not completely conformed. If Rosario were a person, it
would be someone going through a
midlife crisis.
Arriving to live with my host family introduced the first of cultural paradoxes. Dinner was genuine — decorated
with homemade “tartas” and “carne
lunas” (fried bread with cheese and
meat). Frequent conversation reduced
my self-assured American gulps to more
modest and reasonably paced helpings.
Following the feast, I encountered
an episode of “Family Guy” in the living room. The show was broadcast in
English with Spanish subtitles.
I couldn’t believe Stewie Griffin followed me all the way to Argentina;
I turned to my host brother Ezquiel
in confusion.
“People love (“Family Guy” here),
except it is difficult to translate the
pop-culture references and many of
the jokes, so there are often awkward
moments,” he said.
My host-brother has an intriguing, grounded, Argentine mojo. After
a month in Eugene at the Knight Law
School and trips to New York and San
Francisco, his bilingual proficiency enables him to talk in one language and
laugh in another. I envy his ability to
transcend the limits of his native tongue.
That night we went out to Berlin, a
popular bar in town.
At first I was humbled by the Italian
architecture, the heavily distilled Fernet
liquor, and my grave inability to speak
the native tongue. Trying to talk to a
girl in broken grammar and cavemanlike Spanish has a way of putting you
in your place.
Then the English chorus started
resounding from all directions.
The crowd, numbering around 300
people, was singing the Red Hot Chili
Peppers’ “By the Way.”
Right after was Incubus.
Then Beck.
And then the Black Eyed Peas.
My world became flat and small, altering the complexion my cross-cultural
experience had exhibited.
Leaving the club didn’t do much to
save me from this feeling.
Strolling down Cordoba Street is like
walking through Valley River Center. On
the left is Nike. On the right is Ross. McDonald’s is situated on the first floor of
perhaps the most elegant building, with
prices unaffordable for the majority
of Argentines.
The youth venture up and down, window-shopping with mannerisms that
could be compared to Lindsay Lohan
and Paris Hilton. It appears that purchasing from American companies is a
sort of status symbol.
“Kids today in Argentina pronounce
some words without an accent to make
them seem more American,” said Gaston Santhia, a communications specialist for Vision Media. “When I was
a kid, we used to wait for ‘El Nino Dijos’ to bring us presents. After 1983,
we started waiting for Santa Claus.
Even places with indigenous roots
such as Salta and Patagonia started to
celebrate Christmas.”
Sunday in Rosario, there will be an
“asado.” Friends and family will gather
and cook meat on a parilla barbecue,
talk about soccer and argue over politics. At night, the youth will take to the
“discos” and dance to “cumbia” music.
Newly formed couples will meet in the
park the next day to drink “mate” and
kiss each other as the sun sets over the
Rio de Panama.
But the next day, more of their bands
will write songs in English. More of
their children will ask their parents for a
Big Mac. More of their college students
will purchase a knock-off iPod; more of
their 15-year-olds will go to Walt Disney
World for their birthday.
We are in a bold new world — shrinking in both size and identity — with
Cabo Polonio quickly becoming nothing
more than a tourist attraction.

relationship out a little bit longer.
Sophomore Jennah Stillman is one
of coffee’s many lovers. Not only
does she involve herself romantically with him — she works two
jobs for him.
“I think being a barista gives
you the ability to help others and
bring a smile to their face,” Stillman said. Working at both Marche
Cafe and Hideway Bakery, Stillman admits to still drinking two to
three cups of coffee daily.
“Some days I have my own
natural energy to get through the
day without it — but at the same
time I’m not naturally endowed to
keep up with the pace of life at all
times. I don’t need it, but I love it,”
Stillman said.
Stillman simply refers to
coffee as “the dance with the
liquid devil.”
“Coffee give s me the chance
to sit and slow down from my
day and take a look at the world
around me,” Stillman said.

Last year my love life took an
unexpected turn.
Following high school, freshman year of college marked a
new beginning. After getting out
of a two-year relationship, I knew
the last thing I wanted was a
serious commitment.
That was, until I met coffee.
It started out simple — a flirtatious cup every other morning, a
cool frappuccino on a hot day —
you know, casual dating. But the
relationship quickly gained momentum, and before I knew it, that
one cup every other day became
at least two a day. No longer did
I order a 12-ounce single-shot vanilla latte with no foam. My orders
became more and more complex.
Before I even knew it, my
single, proactive mission turned
into a dependent and exclusive relationship. We were in
love — but I couldn’t bear being so dependent on anyone. So
much so, that at times, I actually
hated being with coffee.
Like most girls, I confided in
my friends; to my surprise, almost
half of them were dancing around
the same cycle. This love/hate relationship would have to stop, and
I held on to summer as my only
opportunity for freedom.
So I waited … and after nine
long months of dragging out
the relationship, summer finally
granted me closure.
But some chose to stretch the
meet with coffee (if he is willing,
that is) occasionally to reminisce
on the good times and remember
how naive I once was.
As my wallet recuperates and
my heart mends, it seems I’ll soon
realize I did the right thing.
And I’m sure, one day, coffee
will too. Jennah is a much better fit
for him than I could ever be.

HIGHER EDUCATION

Benefits of college degree
extend further into society
stefan verbano
news reporter
Attaining a college degree may
benefit more than just your pocketbook, says a new College Board
report released last week.
The third and final installment
of “Education Pays: the Benefits
of Higher Education for Individuals and Society,” released on Sept.
21, finds that bachelor’s degreeholders will be better off throughout their lives in terms of salaried earnings, healthy lifestyles,
job satisfaction, employment
opportunities, health care and
pension benefits, and even
parenting abilities.
The general findings of the report go further than the 2004 and
2007 installments, delineating
how a college-educated workforce is more likely to vote, send
their children to college and ease
the burden on fellow taxpayers
by keeping in good health.
According to the report, the
median income of bachelor’s
degree-holders working yearround, full-time jobs in 2008
was $55,700, while the median
yearly income of a similar worker
holding only a high school diploma was $33,800. In terms of
job satisfaction, 58 percent of
college graduates and individuals with some four-year college
education, along with associate
degree-holders, reported being
“very satisfied” with their current employment in 2008. Comparatively, 50 percent of high
school graduates and 40 percent
of individuals without a high
school diploma reported having
enjoyable occupations.
The College Board report also
said that a college degree may
correlate to healthier diets and
lifestyles. Between 1998 and
2008, college-educated adults
were less than half as likely to
be smokers (around 10 percent)
The report, titled “A Cover
to Cover Solution,” notes
that increasing textbook
prices can deter students of
lower socioeconomic statuses from attending college and often places an
unfair amount of power into
the hands of large, wealthy
book publishers.
Percent of parents who
read to their children
daily in 2007 based
on degree
Bachelor’s Degree: 68 percent
Associate Degree: 57 percent
College education but no degree: 47 percent
“The average student
spends $900 per year on
textbooks, which increases
at roughly four times the rate
of inflation,” Denson said.
High school graduates: 41 percent
No high school diploma: 26 percent
than high school graduates (almost 30 percent). Degree-holders
are less likely to be obese in every
age group, and even children living in households with more educated parents are less likely than
their peers to be obese.
Jessica Wilson, a nutritionist
with the University Health Center, said recreational activities and
nutrition awareness on college
campuses helps students develop
and maintain healthy habits.
“There are far more opportunities in post-secondary education to learn about healthy eating for little or no cost compared
to the general public,” Wilson
said. “Universities and colleges
provide a lot of opportunities to
access information to help students create behavior changes
like one-on-one nutrition education, nutrition courses, emotional
and spiritual health services, and
free recreational activity services,
and these can contribute to creating healthier lifestyles and
behavior changes.”
Sandy Baum, co-author of the
report and policy analyst for the
College Board, is quick to note
that the report’s purpose is not
to convince all potential college
students that a post-secondary
degree is necessary. Baum simply wanted to provide data
and point out overall trends so
that people can make up their
own minds about pursuing
additional education.
“Nobody is saying everybody
should get a bachelor’s degree
... we need all kinds of people in
all kinds of jobs,” Baum said in
the report. “Our goal is not to be
convincing people of something
so much as it is to provide solid
information to which people
can refer in order to reach conclusions that are based not on
anecdotes but on evidence.”
Some members of the
University
administration
share the report’s sentiment
in that the pursuit of higher
education benefits more than
just individuals.
“There is no question in my
mind that a college education is
one of the most important investments an individual and a society can make,” Vice President
for Finance and Administration
Frances Dyke said. “Education is
the very foundation on which a
strong and free society is built.”
At the same time, Dyke
feels that the group of potential students who can reap the
benefits associated with a college degree is shrinking due to
declining
publicly-sponsored
educational opportunities for the
middle class.
“The challenge (surrounding)
the rising price of tuition is that
public support has declined dramatically and below acceptable
levels,” Dyke said. “The unfortunate consequence of (this) is
that students also must acquire
additional loans ... and universities must make prudent decisions that ensure both quality
and access.”
The speakers presented
the current status of federal
and state textbook affordability laws, including the
federal Higher Education
Opportunity Act of 2008 and
Oregon State Senate Bill 365,
adopted by the legislature
in 2007. This legislation requires college textbook publishers to afford professors

that serious for us,” Smith
said. “You just calm them
down, get them through it
and then provide whatever
assistance they need.”
The station is always
staffed with at least three
firefighters who take a full
24-hour shift before being
relieved by another crew of
three the next morning at 8
a.m. They have the next two
days off before going back
on shift.
“It’s impossible to say
there will always be the
same number of people
there,” Potter said. “People
will always be going on vacation and there’ll be a need
for personnel at another station and they’ll get rotated
around, but we like to keep
three people on a crew.”
Part of the reason for testing the operations of the station’s two fire engines is to
ensure they are still in proper
working condition from the
previous day’s shift. This
includes all of the stations’s
equipment, not just the engines: defibrillators, radios,
thermal imaging devices,
hoses, air tanks and breathing masks. Smith estimates
both of the station’s engines
combined have well over a
million dollars worth of investment of equipment and
training behind them.
All of the medical equipment onboard the engines is
also checked every morning.
Cziko said.
Senate resolution read.
ASUO Environmental Advocate Nathan Howard is
working on a resolution for
the University Senate. Over
the years, ASUO Senate
has passed resolutions condemning the non-transparent method of simply renewing the permit for the
lease without consulting
student input.
A large part of the group’s
opposition to the development is based on the fact
that the proposal was originally permitted in October
1989 and was approved for
an extension last year for
three more years while they
feel the community was not
allowed comment.
“The Campus Planning
Committee serves as the primary mechanism for student
voice with regards to University Development, and
was not properly consulted
with regards to this specific
4.2-acre site,” a 2009 ASUO
Rousseau
and
former
ASUO presidents Emma Kallaway and Sam Dotters-Katz
have worked with Connecting Eugene, but ASUO involvement began in October
1989 with the original permit
request. There was an ASUO
ballot measure at the end of
BE HEARD.
This is especially important
because most of the calls
Fire Station 13 responds to
are medical in nature, and
usually involving fires.
Some of the medicine and
painkillers onboard have to
be accounted for at all times
because of their controlled
substance status. Fire Station 13 also adheres to a
strict code for everything to
be put in its place. First responders in Lane County are
required to store all medical
equipment and substances in
the exact same quantity and
location on every engine.
As a result, any and all personnel know exactly where
something is when they
need it.
Smith eagerly demonstrated some of the tools firefighters have at their disposal.
He demonstrated a thermal
imaging camera (TIC) that
displays human body heat
as bright white light. All
of the hair on the body is
invisible, but the outlines
of the eyes and mouth can
still clearly be seen because
they give off less heat. The
result is an image of a human figure that looks like a
ghostly skeleton.
the 1989-90 school year that
was passed to discourage development place north of the
railroad tracks.
Rousseau said she does
not oppose the purpose of
the building, but the location
of the proposal. She would
like to see a plan to redesign
the building to promote a
better use of space.
“We’re not against research, but it shouldn’t be in
our precious green spaces,”
she said.
Cziko went to a meeting
of the Oregon State Board
of Higher Education in June
with Rousseau and attorney
Jan Wilson of the Western
“If you saw that laying on
the floor or something, you’d
definitely know what it was.
You could definitely identify the human features,”
Smith said.
They also operate with
customized
self-contained
breathing apparatuses. Theoretically these hold enough
air to provide a half-hour’s
worth of air to their wearer,
but this may not always be
the case. After a firefighter
dons 40 pounds of equipment, and has to perform
work that’s physically exhausting, the air supply might
be substantially reduced.
Once his day is done,
Smith and his crew will hand
off the responsibilities of
the station to the next day’s
crew, and be back on the job
two days later to begin their
routine all over again.
Ideally, their route will be
an uneventful and safe affair, but in the event it’s not,
Fire Station 13 makes sure
it’s overly prepared to respond to their community’s
unique emergencies.

Win streak on the line
No. 11 Ducks are undefeated heading into a weekend road trip against No. 1 Stanford and No. 8 California
ANDY DRUKAREV
SPORTS REPORTER
Sitting pretty at 14-0 after the first week
of Pac-10 play, the Oregon women’s volleyball team is set to face its biggest test of the
young season.
This weekend, the Ducks will visit
the Bay Area to take on a pair of national
powers, No. 8 California and No. 1 Stanford.
And even though Oregon has achieved
its fair share of early season success, Duck
coach Jim Moore knows his squad is in
for a challenge.
“It’s going to be real tough,” Moore
said. “People want to make a big deal
of what happened in the past, but that
doesn’t matter.”
That’s not to say that Oregon’s undefeated start and home sweep of Washington and
Washington State are totally irrelevant.
With only one upperclassman in its
playing rotation, Oregon is one of the
youngest teams in the conference, and a
hot start has given the Ducks a needed
confidence boost.
“I think that’s the biggest thing, it
proved to (the team) that they could be
competitive,” Moore said.
The win over the highly-rated Huskies
also gave Oregon more insight into what it
needed to improve upon to be competitive
in Pac-10 play. Several Washington players
had big nights hitting, and the Ducks know
they will need a better defensive effort to
stick with the Bay Area schools.
”If we can block and play defense better,
we’re going to have a better opportunity to
win some more games,” redshirt sophomore
Alaina Bergsma said.
At the same time, the Ducks hope to build
off an offensive attack that was clicking on
all cylinders last weekend. Bergsma, who
earned American Volleyball Coaches Association National Player of the Week honors
for her 33-kill weekend, said Oregon’s passing was on target.
“We passed really well and that helped
(setter) Lauren Plum open up the offense and distribute the ball really well,”
Bergsma said.
Oregon will need to repeat that feat
to have a shot at knocking off two of the
nation’s premier teams.
Despite the loss of last season’s Pac-10
Player of the Year, Hana Cutura, Cal is 12-0
and leads the conference in hitting percentage (.347). Oregon split its two meetings
with the Bears last year.
To beat Cal, the Ducks will have to
slow down the powerful combination of
setter Carli Lloyd and outside hitter Tarrah Murrey. Lloyd ranks fourth in the Pac10 in assists, while Murrey checks in at
No. 3 in kills.
That said, Moore has no plans of changing his team’s approach to combat such a
dynamic opponent.
“(To beat) Cal, it’s the same thing it is
with everybody,” Moore said. “We’re going to have to serve and pass really well,
and if we pass, then we can run our offense. We have to block better and keep
digging balls.”
The same will hold true on Saturday
against the nation’s best team, Stanford,
who ended Penn State’s 109-match winning
streak earlier this year.
Stanford has excellent depth, but is
best known for its senior outside hitter,
Alix Klineman. Klineman made the AllPac-10 team in each of her first three college seasons, and presents a challenge for
any defense.
“I don’t know that you can control
Klineman,” Moore said.
Although the Ducks were able to contain
the Pac-10’s kill leader, Washington State’s
Meagan Ganzer, over the weekend, Klineman poses a different kind of threat.
“Ganzer at Washington State, I said we
had to be able to slow down, but (Klineman)
is a kid who touches 11 feet, so she basically
renders the block non-existent because she
can go right over the top of it,” Moore said.
And though the Ducks can take some
consolation in a 3-2 home defeat of Stanford
last season, leaving Palo Alto with a victory
will be a tall task.
“They’re very hot right now,” Moore said.
“We can try to do some things defensively
we were able to do that last year up here,
but its another thing to be able to do that
down there.”

Oregon is an even .500 on the year
after dropping its fourth match to No.
13 Santa Clara in Northern California.
On paper, the match was just another
loss, but the flow of that game gives
Oregon reason to think they can beat
some of the nation’s best teams.
In Santa Clara, the Ducks outshot the
Broncos 12-9, the ninth time this season
that Oregon has outshot an opponent.

Oregon soccer head coach Tara Erickson expects to learn a great deal about
her team on Friday night.
The unranked Ducks (4-4-2) will take
on No. 4 Portland (10-1) in an annual

the last twelve years. The Pilots’ lone
defeat this season came in Palo Alto to
the nation’s best, the Stanford Cardinal.

graduation from a team that finished 20-10 and earned an NCAA
tournament berth.
To put those losses in perspective, that trio essentially made
Oregon volleyball during the past
few years.
Newcombe finished her Oregon career as the career leader
in points (1,852) third in attacks (4,318) and digs (1,233),
and fourth in kills (1,580).
She was named a second-team
All-American her senior year.
Enesi is No.1 in Oregon history
with 389 block assists, third in
points (1,315.5), and fifth in total
blocks (436). She was a third-team
All American her senior year.
Djordjevic is Oregon’s career
leader in assists with 4,400. She
earned
All-Pac-10
honorable
mention honors her senior year.
So, yeah. That’s a lot of talent to replace. To make matters
worse, there’s only one upperclassman (Heather Meyers) in the
Ducks’ regular playing rotation to
replace the massive void.
Because of that, logic would
dictate Oregon would regress
this season.
Instead, the Ducks have taken
a step forward. Sophomore Katherine Fischer has continued to
improve from her All Pac-10 freshman campaign, checking in at No.
4 in the conference in aces per
set (.42 per) and No. 8 in points
per set (4.57).

Player of the Week and National
Player of the Week honors for
her play last weekend against the
Washington schools.
Sophomore libero Haley Jacob
ranks sixth in the Pac-10 in digs,
freshman middle blocker Ariana
Williams is No. 6 in hitting percentage, and sophomore outside
hitter Jocelyn Levig and sophomore Kellie Kawasaki have made
strong contributions.
Heck, a few months ago freshman setter Lauren Plum was navigating the halls of Poway High
School in Southern California.
Now, Plum leads the Pac-10 in
assists per set with 12.23.
The team’s lone upperclassman, Meyers, has also been excellent, leading the Pac-10 in service
aces with .78 per set and checking in at No. 7 in points, but is
only a part of the Ducks’ success
this season.
You get the point. With the
exception of Meyers, the players on this Ducks squad will be
around for a while. If the team
matures like you could reasonably expect, look out. Some of
the Pac-10’s premier players
will be lost to graduation after
this year. I’m looking at you,
Stanford outside hitter Alix Klineman. That means the conference
should be up for grabs for the next
several seasons.
And if the early returns are
any indication, the Ducks will be
right there in contention. So why
not jump on the bandwagon now,
while there’s still space and front
row seats to be had.

Like it does every fall, football
fever has overtaken the University
of Oregon campus.
The Ducks are ranked No. 4
in the nation and are set to take
on No. 9 Stanford in prime time
tomorrow. The ESPN GameDay
crew is here, and the University
again finds itself in the national
spotlight. A win over Stanford
would likely catapult the Ducks
into the national title discussion — and might even allow
Oregon to move past the blue
turf-lovin’ Boise State Broncos in
national polls.
But you already knew that.
So, fellow Oregon students, a
piece of unsolicited advice:
If you’re struggling to find
something to do during your
lengthy pre-game tailgate Saturday, I’d recommend paying attention to another highly touted
Oregon team you might not know
so much about.
The No. 11 women’s volleyball
team finds itself 14-0 after a historic upset of then-No. 7 University of Washington on Saturday.
In that game, the Ducks topped
the Huskies in Eugene for the first
time in a decade.
On the surface, that’s impressive, but not all that remarkable.
After all, the Pac-10 is the strongest volleyball league in the country with six schools ranked in the
top 12 nationally.
But many expected the volleyball team to encounter its
fair share of struggles this season. The Ducks lost seniors

In the same way the Ducks

6-5 margin through the first
45 minutes of play, a statistic
which Coach Erickson plans
to exploit.
Despite outscoring the
opposition 17-2 in the second half of matches, Portland’s skewed goal-scoring
numbers give the Ducks a
well-defined plan of attack.
Senior forward Jen Stoltenberg headlines Oregon’s

six goals this season, which

“Kirstie (and Linsday Parlee) do a lot to motivate us

tendency toward lackluster

Darron Thomas and his Oregon offense are back to their old tricks with a zone-read running attack
Robert Husseman
Sports Reporter
It’s Nov. 21, 2009.
The No. 11 Oregon Ducks are facing third and
goal to go from the 1-yard line. Alex Zendejas’ 41yard field goal to open up double-overtime put the
Arizona Wildcats ahead, 41-38. The Ducks responded with a 23-yard strike from Jeremiah Masoli to
Ed Dickson on first and 10 from the 25-yard line. A
sense of inevitability creeps over the ZonaZoo — at
least, those that remained from prematurely rushing
the field at Arizona Stadium.
Oregon has three wide receivers in the formation;
Dickson is split out in the left slot. LaMichael James
is positioned just behind Masoli’s left shoulder in the
backfield. Arizona has seven defenders in the box;
each receiver is single-covered.
Center Jordan Holmes snaps the ball. As Masoli
extends his arms, placing the ball in James’ chest,
Wildcat linebackers crash the offensive line. The
left outside linebacker and left defensive end move
outside as the middle linebacker and right outside
linebacker travel inward.
Masoli then pulls the ball away from James, freezing the left-side defenders momentarily. That moment was all he needed. The now-former Ducks
quarterback scored his third rushing and sixth overall touchdown on the night.
Oregon 44, Arizona 41, Final, two overtimes.
Yet another example of zone-read legerdemain
from the Ducks knocked one contender out of the
Pac-10 Conference title race. Oregon would do
the same thing 12 days later to the Oregon State
Beavers, reaching the Rose Bowl for the first time
in 15 years.
Head coach Chip Kelly installed the zone-read

pains and many successes. Paired with a fast tempo,

When asked by reporters to
describe the versatile Stanford
offensive attack, cornerback Anthony Gildon summed it up by
explaining, “You never know
what you’re going to get.”
As it turns out, Gildon’s description also proves apt at predicting the outcome of Saturday’s matchup between No. 9
Stanford (4-0) and No. 4 Oregon
(4-0). Bloggers and pundits may
come up with their own projections, but the truth is, no one
knows quite how this game will
turn out.
What Chip Kelly and the
Ducks do know, however, is
that Stanford may provide the
toughest competition they face
all season.
“(Stanford’s) got quality
depth on both sides of the ball,”
Kelly said. “(They are) really
well coached, and they’re a good
special teams team, that’s why
they’re a top-10-ranked team
coming in.”
Indeed, a quick look at the
numbers backs up Kelly’s description. The Cardinal ranks
fourth in the nation in points per
game (48.0) and 24th in total offense (457.50 yards per game).
Stanford’s attack is evenly divided between the run and pass, as
the team averages 223.3 rushing
yards per game to go along with
234.3 passing yards.
Priority number one for
head coach Jim Harbaugh and
his offense, however, is the
running game.
“Stanford’s a run first team,”
Gildon said. “So they like to establish the run and then hit you
with play action fakes over the
top. So we’ve gotta stop the run
and we’ve gotta stop the pass.”
Stanford’s statistics on defense
may be even more impressive.
The Cardinal gives up just 13.8
points per game, and ranks 11th
in the nation in total defense (256
yards per game). Against a squad
that allows just 144.25 passing
yards per game, Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas knows that
he has his work cut out for him.
“It’s going to be a competitive
game,” Thomas said. “I think it’s
the hardest game we’ve played
this year, so it’s going to be
a challenge.”
One thing the Ducks will not
lack on Saturday will be motivation. No one has forgotten the
51-42 beating the Cardinal put on
Oregon last season in Palo Alto,
and revenge will be on the mind
come Saturday night.
“We’ve just got to make sure
simon warby stanford daily
Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh has rebuilt the Cardinal program over his three-plus years in Palo Alto. Harbaugh’s
defense ranks 11th in the nation in total yardage and has given up an average of 13.8 points per game in 2010.
we come out better prepared
that we were last year,” defensive tackle Brandon Bair said.
“Because they wanted to win it
more than us then. So this year is
a whole new year.”
Led by All-American running
back Toby Gerhart, Stanford
racked up 254 rushing yards in
last year’s matchup. Gerhart may
have departed for the NFL, but
the Cardinal still clogs the line
with up to seven offensive linemen looking to pound opponents
on the ground.
“We knew they were a six offensive linemen, seven offensive
linemen scheme last year going
into the game,” Kelly said. “We
just need to do a better job getting lined up and tackling … We
didn’t do a good job of tackling
against them last year and that’s
going to be the key.”
Bair
echoed
K el l y ’ s
sentiments, and sounded confident that this year’s story will be
quite different.
“We’ll handle whatever comes
our way,” Bair said. “Seven offensive linemen, five, two, I don’t
care what they put up there, we’ll
get ready for it, we’ll handle it.”
Of course, the running game
is far from the only thing the
defense has to worry about.
Redshirt sophomore quarterback Andrew Luck has quickly
emerged as one of the top passers
in the country, and could be the
difference maker on Saturday.
“I think he’s one of the smarter quarterbacks we’ve ever
faced,” Kelly said. “Because
he’s got a great understanding
of what they’re doing … He’s the
total package.”
As one of the cornerbacks
charged with stopping Luck,
Gildon was effusive in his praise.
“He can make all the throws,
and he’s a smart player,” Gildon
said. “So you’ve gotta account for
that, and he can run, so he can
basically do it all.”
Tight ends have also proven to
be key weapons in Stanford’s attack, as Gildon discovered while
watching film.
“One thing about Stanford is
they run a lot of tight ends,” Gildon said. “So they get a lot of max
protect … The receivers get a lot
of time to run routes, but they run
really nice routes, and they’ve got
some good speed on them.”
The Oregon defense will have
to rely on varying schemes designed to fluster Luck. Whether
they work or not will not be
known until Saturday.
“We’ll see, won’t we?”
Gildon said.

OREGON NOTES
Ducks see similarities in Cardinal defense
Oregon’s high-pace attack faces an opponent with
a familiar 3-4 defense, giving the team an advantage
sports reporter
Through four games, the No. 9
Stanford Cardinal has proven to
be far more than just quarterback
Andrew Luck and a physical
running attack.
They are playing a lot better on the defensive side of
the ball,” Oregon head coach
Kelly said.
“They’ve changed their
scheme defensively, and are really playing very hard on the defensive side of the ball. (They’re)
really well coached,” he said.
Stanford head coach Jim Harbaugh hired Baltimore Ravens
defensive assistant Vic Fangio
last offseason to help upgrade
a defense that finished ninth in
the Pac-10 Conference in total
defense and last in third-down
and red-zone defense. Fangio, a
26-year veteran of the NFL and
USFL, replaced the Cardinal’s
4-3 defensive scheme with a
base 3-4 defense.
“They play a lot of odd, a lot
of 3-4, a lot of three big guys,
‘backers lock down, stuff like
that to just try to use their defensive scheme to their advantage,” Ducks offensive tackle
Mark Asper said. “You don’t
know who’s coming or where
pressure is coming from each
play to throw off your offensive
blocking scheme.”
Thus far, Stanford is 11th in
the country in total defense (256
yards per game) and passing defense (144.25 yards per game)
and is tied for 12th in scoring
defense (13.75 points per game).
The team that tallied 21 sacks
all of last season has 14 this season, tied for sixth in per-game
statistics nationally.
“They’re big, they’re fast and
they’re, well, Stanford. They look
smart,” Asper said.
While the revamped Cardinal
defense has caught opponents
off guard this season, Oregon
players expressed confidence in
their preparation. After all, the
Duck offense sees similar looks
in practice.
“It’s very similar to our defense. Their scheme is very similar to our scheme,” center Jordan
Holmes said. “Since we’re so familiar with it, we know what to
look for. We need to make sure
we know where they’re coming
from blitz-wise, and how many
people they bring.”
One of the familiar aspects of
the Cardinal defense is the presence of Thomas Keiser. The junior from Wexford, Pa., started
all 13 games at defensive end for
Stanford last season, racking up
a team-high 15.0 tackles for loss.
Kaiser will encroach upon the
line of scrimmage in the same
fashion as Oregon’s “drop end,”
a defensive end who often blends
into coverage.
“They have their Kenny
Rowe,” Holmes said. “That’s

what we refer to other teams
when they have a drop end.”
Stanford’s two inside linebackers, senior Owen Marecic
and sophomore Shayne Skov, are
dynamic players that command
attention in the film room.
“Against Notre Dame, a couple
of times I saw those guys time up
the cadence,” Asper said of the
Cardinal’s 37-14 victory over the
Fighting Irish last week. “They
figured out the other team’s cadence, so they were in the backfield before the offensive line was
even up. They run downhill and
fill really hard. And, I’ve also
seen them power through some
of those Notre Dame offensive
linemen, so they’re strong.”
Marecic (pronounced maREE-sick) has plenty of power in
reserve, pulling double duty as
the team’s starting fullback on offense. Skov was third on the team
with 62 tackles as a true freshman, and has a reputation as a
fierce hitter.

With 7:58 remaining in the
fourth quarter in Stanford’s
game against Notre Dame last
Saturday, senior Owen Marecic scored two touchdowns in
a 13-second span to extend the
Cardinal’s lead over the Fighting Irish and helped the Cardinal improve to 4-0 on the year,
marking the programs best
start since the 1986 season.
On his first score, Marecic
capped an 11-play, 49-yard
drive with a one-yard scoring
charge through the middle of
the stout Stanford offensive
line. After the ensuing kickoff,
Marecic then intercepted Irish
quarterback Dayne Crist’s first
pass of the possession and returned it 20 yards for another
Cardinal score.
Stanford 37, Notre Dame 14.
Bring on Oregon.
Now in his senior season as
Stanford’s starting fullback and
linebacker, Marecic has gained
national attention as one of the
few dominant two-way players in Division-I football. A
biology and pre-medicine student, Marecic has all the right
tools to disrupt any opposing
game plan.

will and a great work ethic,”

with gostanford.com’s Bruce
MacGowan. “He’s blessed with
ability, strength, and quickness and a great mind to understand these complex defensive
and offensive schemes.”
Marecic will experience a bit
of a homecoming this Saturday when he and the Cardinal
return to Autzen Stadium. A
graduate of Jesuit High School
in Portland, Marecic will be
back in Oregon yet again to
try and come away with his
first-ever win in Eugene.
Oregon has taken seven of
the last eight matchups between the two schools, the
lone Stanford win coming
last year in Stanford Stadium
— Oregon’s only conference
loss — by a count a 51-42. The
headliner in that game, Toby
Gerhart, has since departed to
the NFL to play for the Minnesota Vikings. But through
four games it appears Stanford
hasn’t lost a beat offensively.
“We’ve got to stop the run,”
Oregon senior linebacker
Casey Matthews said. “Force
them to pass a little more. Because if they have some success with the run it’ll make our
(defensive backs) play closer,
which we, we can’t have that.”
That combination of a lethal running game and timely
passing attack was the winning recipe for the Cardinal
last November. Stanford tallied
254 rushing yards (Gerhart
accounted for 223 of those)
on 52 attempts, while thenfreshman quarterback Andrew
Luck completed just 12 passes
that went for 251 yards and
two scores.
Eight of those receptions
were split between wide receivers Chris Owusu (four for
111 yards) and Ryan Whalen
(four for 72 yards), who both
returned this season. In 2010,
however, senior Doug Baldwin
has stepped up as the team’s
leading receiver, pulling in 12

Right tackle
To force plays from Stanford
quarterback Andrew Luck,
Oregon must stop the Cardinal’s north-south rushing attack, an unenviable task. That
means going through a stout
offensive line that has paved
the way for 223.25 yards per
game on the ground (19th
nationally). The 6-foot-5-inch,
303-pound Hall, a fifth-year senior from Overland Park, Kan.,
will look to erase Turner from
running plays. Oregon’s senior
defensive end from Los Angeles
has nine tackles (1.5 for loss)
and 1.5 sacks for the Ducks this
season and must be a disruptive force for an Oregon defensive line that will need all the
help it can get.

PAC-10 ROUNDUP
Huskies ready to take on No. 18 Trojans
Andy Drukarev
sports reporter
Washington at No. 18 USC
(5:00 p.m. Saturday)
While this battle between
two teams led by former Pete
Carroll assistants (Lane Kiffin of USC, Steve Sarkisian
of Washington) looks like a
mismatch on paper, the final
score might be closer than you
think. Until last week’s 50-16
drubbing of awful Washington
State, the Trojans had yet to
establish a rhythm, narrowly
edging a trio of subpar nonconference opponents. While
USC’s offense is strong both
on the ground (21st nationally in rushing) and in the air
(38th nationally in passing),
the Trojan defense lacks depth
and is susceptible to the big
play, as exhibited by Hawaii’s
36 points in the season opener.
That defense is especially
vulnerable to a true dualthreat quarterback like the
Huskies’ Jake Locker. Although Locker has struggled
in the early going, completing only 51.1% of his passes,
he’s still projected to be a
first-round NFL draft pick this
spring and has plenty of talent.
With playmaking receivers in
Jermaine Kearse and Devin
Aguilar, and star running back
Chris Polk, the Husky offense
certainly has the potential to
have a big game.
But even if Locker plays up
to his potential, it’s unlikely
the Washington defense would
slow down the Trojan offense.
In its last game, Washington
surrendered 56 points to a
Nebraska team that only mustered 17 against South Dakota
State. How will the Huskies
fare against a high-octane
attack
like
the
Trojans possess?
Key Stat: Washington’s 1613 defeat of the Trojans last
year marked the first Husky
win over USC since 2001.
Washington State at UCLA
UCLA returns home to take
on Washington State, riding a
wave of momentum from last
weekend’s shocking upset of
then-No. 7 Texas. The Bruins (2-2, 0-1) overwhelmed
the Longhorns with a powerful running game (UCLA had
264 yards on the ground) and
stout offense and will look to
do the same against the woeful
Cougars (1-3, 0-1).
After a respectable showing against SMU two weeks
ago, Washington State was
horrid in a 50-16 blowout loss
to USC. The defense allowed
613 yards of total offense and
Cougar quarterback Jeff Tuel
threw three interceptions. It
will be a challenge for Washington State’s offense to take a
step forward against a stacked
UCLA defense that limited
Texas to only 349 yards of
total offense and forced
five turnovers.
The Cougars’ best chance
to pull the road upset is a lowscoring, sloppy affair. UCLA’s
offense has been known to be
dormant at times, including
in a 35-0 loss at home to Stanford a few weeks ago, and Tuel
may possibly find a few openings in the Bruin secondary.
Key Stat: Washington
State hasn’t won a Pac-10
conference game since Nov.
22, 2008 when the Cougars
edged rival Washington 16-13
in overtime.
Arizona State
at Oregon State
Finally done with one of
the most difficult non-conference schedules in the nation,
Oregon State returns home
from a loss at Boise State to
take on a better-than-expected Arizona State squad. The
biggest reason for the Sun
Devils’ apparent improvement from last year’s disappointing 4-8 campaign is the
addition of Michigan transfer
Steven Threet into the starting lineup. Threet, who beat
out Brock Osweiler and Samson Szakacsy in fall camp, has
helped the Arizona State passing attack reach No. 5 in the
nation. The Devils (2-2, 0-1)
BE HEARD.
had strong showings against
two top-25 teams, losing 4231 to No. 4 Oregon and narrowly missing a road upset of
No. 11 Wisconsin.
Oregon State enters Saturday’s tilt on weak footing.
Although the Beavers had
respectable performances in
their three non-conference
games (a close win against
Louisville and narrow losses
to national powers TCU and
Boise State), new quarterback Ryan Katz is unproven,
and the defense has yet to
find its rhythm. Of more immediate concern is the status
of star wide receiver James
Rodgers, who was knocked
out of last Saturday’s
game against Boise with
a concussion.
Then again, Oregon State
historically is a much better team the second half of
the season than the first,
and maybe a Pac-10 game
against a beatable opponent is just what the Beavers need to begin their
traditional ascent up the
conference standings.
Key Stat: Through three
games, Oregon State quarterback Ryan Katz is only completing 46.8% of his passes,
a big drop-off from former
Beaver quarterback Sean
Canfield’s 67.9% last season.

“When they get a downhill
run — I think that’s the strength
and conditioning program at
Stanford, because that’s the way
Toby (Gerhart) was,” Asper said.
“You got a head of steam heading
downhill, it’s hard to stop them.
It’s going to take a lot of oomph to
stop that charge.”
Few BCS-conference teams
base their defenses in a 3-4
scheme, and Cal is the only other
Pac-10 school to do so. Nevertheless, the Oregon offensive line

three scores.

Jonathan Martin (6-6, 304),

freshman, how have you been
adjusting to college life?
Josh Huff: Well, I’ve only
had two days of classes, but
I’m feeling pretty well with the
classes and what not. On the
football field, I’m feeling real
comfortable.
ODE: You’re from Texas, so
how does it feel living Eugene?
JH: It’s a lot different, but
hey, this is where I’m going
to be living for the next four
years, so why not get used to
it?
ODE: Are you enjoying Eugene? Do you like
the atmosphere?
JH: Yeah, especially on
game days. It’s real nice.
ODE: Where are you living
at right now?
JH: Barnhart.
ODE: How’s that going? Are
you liking the dorms?
JH: Yeah, real nice.
ODE: What about the food?
JH: No, only breakfast
has been schooled in how to
handle the multifaceted attack.
“From a tackle standpoint,
you’re always looking at the defensive end because he’s usually
right on top of you,” Asper said.
“You can pace your decisions off
of that. If he widens, he’s probably coming outside. If he tightens
in, he’s probably coming inside.
Also, you’re looking at the linebacker that’s stacked over him.
If he widens, he’s probably coming outside. If he tightens in, he’s
probably coming inside. You can
play off the two of them. Somebody has to control the outside,
this season.
Matthews still vividly remembers last years trip to
Palo Alto and the imposing
Stanford blocking scheme.
“It was one of the more
physical games I’ve ever
played in,” Matthews said.
“It was just a bad feeling,
but fortunately we recovered
and won the rest.”
Stanford hopes to repeat
its success from a year ago,
but hasn’t faced an opposing
is good.
ODE: What do you like to do
in your free time?
JH: Before school started, I’d
probably go home and go hang
out with my teammates, we
play the (video) games, have
tournaments with the games.
ODE: What kind of video
games do you play?
JH: Just Madden 11 and
NCAA (Football) 11.
ODE: Who’s your favorite
team to play with on Madden?
JH: Houston.
ODE: What classes are
you taking?
JH: FHS (Family and Human Services, Huff’s major)
199, Writing 121, and Art 111.
ODE: What are you looking to do with the Family and
Human Services major?
JH: I just want to help out
with the community, and be
as much of a factor with the
community as I can.

Oregon freshman wide receiver Josh Huff had a breakout game at Arizona State, reeling in a 54-yard touchdown pass in the
third quarter against the Sun Devils on Sept. 25. Huff is the only true freshman to receive significant playing time this year.
and somebody has to control the
inside. If they both go outside,
somebody’s got to come back in.
“Coach Kelly always says,
‘Anticipate the hard, react to the
easy.’ The hard would be the
linebacker running downhill
fast, so you anticipate that. If
he doesn’t, then just lock onto
the end.”
Stanford, of course, must
stop a rushing attack that ranks
fourth in the nation on its home
turf. The offensive linemen
don’t intend to give the Cardinal
anything easy.
go ducks!
With a 2010 freshman class
including the likes of Lache
Seastrunk, Dontae Williams,
Curtis White and Ricky Heimuli, few would have expected
wide receiver Josh Huff to be
first-year player earning the
most snaps four weeks into
the season. Yet the 5-foot-11inch freshman has made a
difference for the Ducks with
his game-breaking speed and
nose for the ball. Huff came up
with one of the mot spectacular plays in last week’s contest
against Arizona State, hauling
in a 54-yard touchdown pass
from Darron Thomas in the
third quarter to give Oregon
an 11-point lead. Showing off
his versatility, he also rushed
for a touchdown against Portland State. The Emerald caught
up with Huff after practice
Wednesday to see how he is
adjusting to life as an Oregon
student-athlete.

“It’s going to be tough.
It’s going to be fun,” Luck
said in the same interview
with Harbaugh. “You know,
this is definitely the game,
I guess people say, why we
play college football. For
games like these in a tough
atmosphere like its going to
be. We’re very excited.”

zone-read
quarterbacks consistent and
notorious threats.
Beyond individual performances, the most impressive
element of the zone-read to
the untrained observer is the
ease at which the Ducks pull
off misdirection.
“We depend on deception in our offense,” running backs coach Gary
Campbell said. “We run a
lot of zone stuff and we run
some options.”
Oregon practices zoneread fakes regularly during
fall camp and occasionally
devotes extra time during
the season. Each quarterback
works with each running
back to develop a sense of
timing and feel. The goal: a
believable and technically
sound ball fake, every time.
“The coaches have pounded that idea into our heads so
much that it’s like, now, it becomes second nature to us,”
running back Remene Alston
said. “We still need to get better at our fakes, but it seems
to work against defenses.
They pound it in our heads
every day: ‘Good fakes! Good
fakes! Good fakes!’”
Repetition is valuable to
the quarterbacks because, as
starter Darron Thomas said,
“each running back is a little
bit different.”
“You’ve got to get the feel
of each running back,” said
Thomas, who has tucked the
ball and gained 102 yards
on 19 carries this season.
“Kenjon (Barner) and LaMichael are about the same,
though. They’re about the
same height.”
Quarterbacks treat each
zone-read play the same, regardless of the ultimate decision that is based on the read
of the opposing defensive
tackle. Their arms are fully
extended — bent elbows give
the fake away — and their
eyes are always focused on
the clean exchange. Following through is critical — the
longer the ball remains in
the “pocket” created by the
running back’s arms and
chest, the longer the defense
reacts to the handoff, allowing a quarterback to spring
the trap.
“Make it look the same as if
you were running a run play,”
quarterback Nate Costa said.
“A lot of guys rush it because
they don’t trust it. You’ve got
to trust the fake.”
Running backs are encouraged to “be actors” according
to Campbell. (The ultimate
decision to execute a fake, after all, rests with the quarterback.) They will come from
the quarterback’s immediate
right and left sides, behind
him from both directions or
in front from both directions.
The opposite arm (right arm
from the left side, and vice
versa) is raised up to create
the pocket that the quarterback places the ball into.
“They have to hold it tight
enough that if the quarterback lets it go, they can hold
on to it, and if he wants to
pull it out they can release
it,” Campbell said. “It’s body
language. They’ve got to be
moving at the speed they’d be
moving if they had the ball.”
Running the play at full
speed is the most important
facet, according to offensive
coordinator Mark Helfrich.
“You’re running as hard
as you are with the ball as
without the ball,” he said.
“(Masoli) ran as hard as he
did without the ball as if he
had the ball. If you were doing that when the tailback has
the ball — if the tailback’s doing that when you have the
ball — that’s deceiving.”
Masoli was featured in a
segment for ESPN’s College
GameDay show on Oct. 30,
2009, that exhibited his ability to execute ball fakes like
a magician performs simple
card tricks. The program returns to Eugene this week as
the No. 9 Stanford Cardinal
attempts to resist the sleight
of hand of the No. 4 Ducks,
who are fourth in the country with 316.8 rushing yards
per game.
Thomas will get no such
treatment. Kelly did, however, offer praise when asked
about Thomas’ performance
within the zone-read option
game after Oregon’s home
victory against Portland State.
“I think he’s been
outstanding,” Kelly said.
