women’s football Kelly closes practices as Unphased by Oregon begins controversy preparations Ducks attempt to imitate Jacquizz Rodgers with five scout teamers, but Kelly says it can’t be done Ben Schorzman | Sports Editor If you’ve grown up in the state of Oregon, you might know how important Thursday night’s Civil War is to Oregonians. For the week lead- ing up to the game, the state is polarized into yellow-green and orange-black. Families take sides, and Christmas can either be great or awful depending on whether or not your side won. Add in a Pacific-10 Conference Champion- ship and a Rose Bowl berth to the 113th edition of the Civil War and it is now the biggest col- lege football game in the history of football in the state. But the No. 7 Oregon Ducks aren’t listening to the hype, although they do understand that the Civil War is more than just a game for fans. “It’s always good,” fourth-year senior Andre Cren- shaw said of the seventh oldest rivalry game in . “With them being so close, it’s bragging rights all the time. And since I’ve been here, you always want to have them and be the top team in Oregon. We always look forward to playing them. It is what it is, a backyard brawl ­— the Civil War.” Crenshaw said, however, that in order to pre- pare, the team will focus on the No. 13 just like any other team in the conference. Senior safety T.J. Ward agreed. “(It’s the) same as any other week,” Ward said. “There’s nothing special about them. They’re in the Pac-10. They’re a good team and it is what it is. We prepare the same every week. No one gets any special treatment, rivalry or whatnot.” Oregon has taken a measure to ensure the fewest distractions to the team this week. After coming back from Thanksgiving for practice on Saturday, the University announced that prac- shawn hatjes | Photographer tices leading up to Thursday’s game would be Senior guard Taylor Lilley dribbles against a Portland State defender Sunday at McArthur Court.
