K Y O FA B N I FSL expansion threatened in response to latest

CLIMATE SURVEY RESULTS ➡ OLIVIA

Results of the latest campus climate survey, conducted by Jennifer J. Freyd, University of Oregon psychology professor, revealed 100% of Fraternity and Sorority Life-affiliated female students that reported non-consensual sexual contact were violated by male perpetrators.

“Imagine that Greek Life is a red square, taped on the ground, and if you walk into that red square, you are three times as likely to be sexually assaulted,” said Zach Lusby of the ASUO senate. “Why on earth are we making more squares?”

After the results from the climate survey were published, FSL conducted an external review, an assessment managed by professionals who are not affiliated with UO and its FSL, on Oct. 12 and 13.

“The external review extends beyond sexual assault and includes other issues such as hazing, community accountability, alcohol and substance abuse, mental health, staffing and resource allocation, community culture, values congruence and recruitment, etc.,” Director of FSL Justin Shukas said in an email.

The ASUO is working on a draft of the new

DECKLAR, @AIVILORAE

resolution. It differs from the last resolution by enacting harsher consequences for chapters and individuals within them that violate their organization’s values or the UO student conduct code. Another piece that might be in the new resolution is the recommendation to halt the expansion of Greek Life that is not already chartered or contracted with UO, specifically for fraternities due to Title IX issues, Lusby said.

“I don’t think we should be punishing sororities for fraternity members who are raping people,” Lusby said. “It is never a survivor’s fault in any situation that they were sexually assaulted.”

The new resolution is to be submitted to the senate after the external review is published.

“The external review is coming without any preconceived notion of what UO Greek Life is and the UO campus survey is how the students at UO are feeling about us,” said Kyle Heiner, FSL liaison and ASUO executive.

“As a Greek group, we have to look at these climate surveys and come together to take them seriously.”

Lusby says it is a challenge to get people motivated to do this work.

“The fact that I have to be so precise about my wording and have to be so careful as to not offend Greek Life is a little offensive to me because I am prioritizing the well being of fraternity and sorority members, when we need to be putting survivors first,” Lusby said.

Shukas says they are continuing to do whatever they can to eliminate sexual violence and sexual harassment in any form.

Evidence-based practices are best in addressing this situation, Shukas said.

“After reviewing results from the various research surveys and external reviews, we will move forward with evidence-based best practices for our organization,” Shukas said in an email.

Lusby said he is working toward a communal process between FSL and ASUO. “Nothing’s ever going to get done if there’s a line in the sand, so I’m hoping this resolution has the power to unite us in fighting sexual violence for the good of everyone,” Lusby said.

ASUO Legal Services is making changes to their location and personnel.

➥ TRAN

NGYUEN, @TRANNGNGN

Yan Li had bought his first car only a year ago, purchased with his part-time job savings. He took care of the car as if it were his child, he said. He even named it Baobao, meaning “precious.�

When Li found his car was destroyed while he was asleep on Sept. 29, he was devastated. A drunk driver on his phone drove into Li’s car, according to a note that was left behind.

A friend of Li recommended that he seek advice from ASUO Legal Services. But Li’s troubles seemed to continue when he could not find the office.

The ASUO Legal Services helps resolve conflicts outside of the university. All students can utilize the service, paid for by the incidental fee. Three attorneys are available to provide legal services and awareness of the law to students.

Due to the lack of space in the EMU renovation, ASUO Legal Services had to move off campus in August. The office is on the second floor of a building across the street from Fifth Street Market.

ASUO Legal Services notified the student body about the move only through its Facebook page.

Its official website was up only a week ago, ASUO Leadership Advisor Becky Girvan said. “My goal is to move it back on campus,� Andrew Dunn, chair of the Athletics and Contracts Finance Committee, said. “It

needs to be more accessible to students.�

ASUO Legal Services not only changed locations, but soon will have changes in personnel.

Girvan said the ACFC is going through the competitive bid with legal services. The competitive bid allows all interested groups and individuals to present its offering services to ACFC, which will start in the next couple weeks, Girvan said. The university requires this process to happen every seven years.

Since July, ACFC has extended the contracts with current Attorney Director Ilona Givens for six months to maintain services, Girvan said. With two months left in the contract, ACFC members will select a new provider, making sure “services will not be interrupted,� she said.

Dunn said he wants to carefully consider all applicants for next year. He said it’s vital that ASUO Legal Services can meet student needs. “We want to see what the providers can offer to compare which one is more cost-effective,� Dunn said. “We want not only quality, but also quantity.�

Dunn said students can utilize legal services in landlord and tenant contracts, especially with many massive complex apartments. He also wants to see attorneys with the ability to handle high-profile crimes.

đ&#x;’ť FILM & TV

Aziz Ansari stars in the new Netflix sitcom ‘Master of None’.

‘MASTER OF NONE’ This year’s smartest and most relatable sitcom ➥ ALEX

R U B Y, @ A R U B Y R U B R U B

Aziz Ansari is a man of the times. His character on NBC’s Parks and Recreation was a tech savant, social media guru and modern entrepreneur. In his stand-up specials, Ansari delivered fresh comedy through everyday interactions. Now, in his new Netflix show Master of None, Ansari translates those everyday interactions into a smart and unconventional sitcom.

Ansari stars as Dev, a commercial actor trying to get ahead in New York City. His actual parents play his parents on the show: his dad is a scene-stealer, easily deserving of an Emmy. They’re joined by Eric Wareheim, Kelvin Yu, NoÍl Wells and newcomer Lena Waithe as Dev’s group of friends and social confidantes. With each episode centering around a different everyday issue (relationships, jobs, gender equality, first dates, racism, kids), these friends provide Dev with insight into how they would solve his problems and are interesting foils to Ansari’s character. In that way, Master of None is reminiscent of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, with its awkward take on modern (and sometimes insignificant) problems.

One of the best things about Ansari and his sitcom is how relatable it is. It doesn’t just give its viewers the punchline, it forces them to think about why a situation is funny and how it applies to

them. One episode has Dev dealing with a girl bailing on him after he has asked her to go to a concert. He then has to decide what to do about the situation and who he should ask instead. He asks his friends and they all offer different opinions. Some offer rational solutions, while others are more abstract and amusing.

Towards the latter half of the season, the show delves deeper into Dev’s romantic relationship, and it’s heartwarming how realistic it is. Like everything else in Master of None, Dev’s relationship isn’t filled with tropes like those in the typical romantic sitcom, such as Dev and his partner being total opposites or some unexpected conflict.

Instead, they’re on somewhat equal stations in life. Their conflicts come naturally and they solve them maturely.

Master of None makes sense while also being comedic. It’s a show to watch with your friends so you can talk about how a situation applies to you and then laugh about how you approached it afterwards.

It’s a show about how we’re all just trying to get by as we mature into adulthood.

We’re all jacks of all trades, but we know we’re the masters of none of them, and — according to the show — that’s perfectly okay.

đ&#x;“Ł OPINION

THE MISSOURI SITUATION EVEN IN SMALL NUMBERS, COLOSSAL CHANGE IS POSSIBLE.

➥ KANEEM Going from LickWilmerding High School to the University of Oregon, I have been very blessed, to say the least. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend schools where racism is not blatant and is typically frowned upon. Others in my community, however, have not been as lucky as I have.

For many years, the University of Missouri campus has dealt with deep-rooted racial tensions.

In recent years, there have been countless incidents concerning a lack of racial understanding on the campus.

In 2010, during Black History Month, it was reported that white students vandalized the Black Culture Center on campus and were only punished minimally.

Additionally, students made threats to burn down the cultural center, to which little penalization was given out.

Cynthia Frisby, a journalism professor at the University of Missouri, recently spoke out about her experiences with racism on campus —including being called the n-word to her face by both students and fellow faculty members.

The list of both racial insensitivity and blatant disregard for racial equity extends endlessly. However, in spite of these instances, the students at the University of Missouri rose to the occasion.

They demonstrated why more minorities at predominantly white institutions should actively rally against oppression.

Through activism, minority students were able to accomplish a lot in just a short period of time. In the past couple of weeks, news coverage of the situation has increased, bringing attention to the issue around the nation.

With more national media coverage, an increasing number of people have been sharing posts on social media regarding the situation, making it easy to follow.

The protests and collective outrage are persuading even non-minority students to join in on the events.

Many white students have been participating in the protests and fighting for a

common cause alongside black students. The inclusion of white protesters illustrates a campus that is unified. Students coming together from different backgrounds to fight for each other will lead to quicker solutions and outcomes.

The push by these students has already resulted in the university’s president, Timothy M. Wolfe, announcing his resignation. As opposed to receiving lip service or empty promises by the administration, students forced real change, which will greatly affect the ways in which racial tensions are dealt with.

When minority students collectively protest, like those at the University of Missouri, positive outcomes can come to fruition, even beyond the original demands. For example, in the case of Missouri, now that the former president is resigning, minority students can have more of a say in how the new president is selected.

Activism and protests about racial tensions can lead to a more open and honest dialogue with administrators. Students can actively work with faculty and the leaders of an institution to create solutions to better address these concerns.

Ultimately, collective activism by minority students can lead to a shift in a school’s culture regarding equity, safety and responsibility.

In the recent days, many have focused on the athletes of the University of Missouri, who refused to play until the president of the school resigned.

While the intention here is not to belittle their acts of courage, more emphasis should be placed on the importance of the minority students who protested as a whole.

Nationwide, students of color face institutional oppression, along with a lack of social justice and awareness. Even at colleges that are deemed liberal, there is still much progress to be made.

The minority students at the University of Missouri have shown us that even in small numbers, colossal change is possible to achieve.

⚡ SPORTS Oregon women’s cross country prepares to take first step towards another NCAA Championship ➡ CHRISTOPHER

KEIZUR, @CHRISKEIZUR

For the past half decade, redshirt senior Molly Grabill has been running in an Oregon uniform.

As a member of both the cross country and track and field teams, the four-time All-American from Poway, California, has been able to battle through injuries and turn them into a solid college career.

“I am really going to be sad to not wear the uniform after this year,” Grabill said. “It’s going to be a transition, but I wouldn’t trade these past few years for anything.”

The next two weeks will be the final chance for Grabill and her fellow Oregon seniors to compete as the Ducks try and bring home another championship in women’s cross country.

First on the schedule is the NCAA West Regionals in Seattle this Friday, a race where the team will only do as much as is needed to advance. A top-two finish in the region is all that is required to qualify because they accumulated enough points during the year. This means they can take it easier than usual to avoid injuries and save an extra burst.

“At Regionals we will just do what we need to do — get the job done and go,” redshirt sophomore Alli Cash said.

If everything goes as planned, the Ducks will move on to the NCAA Championships, which are held at E.P. “Tom” Sawyer Park in Louisville, Kentucky — a site they are very familiar with.

The last time the women were able to win a cross country title was at this same location back in 2012, a win that broke a 25 year drought for the squad.

“We have all the pieces going forward,” Cash said. “We have been training really hard the past couple of months, so now is the exciting time to put it all together and see what we can do.”

In cross country, the top five finishers for each

team count towards the final score, with the final placement being converted into equivalent points. The squad with the lowest score wins.

This means that a team can’t just rely on one or two stars, they need depth.

This is an area where the Duck women have an advantage, as their veterans have done a good job integrating the new faces into a cohesive group. Runners like Grabill and senior transfer Waverly Neer have been in these situations before and know what to expect.

“We bring in these young girls and show them the ropes of how we do things at Oregon to represent the University,” Grabill said. “Our

mantra is ‘Be Oregon’.”

If everything goes as planned, the Ducks should have another trophy to add to their collection.

“All of us got a taste of it during Outdoors,” Cash said of winning the National Championship in track and field. “Last year we really wanted it but weren’t quite there, but this year we are in a better position.”

The team is still just taking it one day at a time, making sure not to forget the early steps that must be traversed.

The NCAA West Regionals will begin in Seattle at 12 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13.

⚑ GAMEDAY HOW OREGON AND STANFORD

STACK UP ➡ JUSTIN

WISE, @JUSTINFWISE

The vibe inside Autzen Stadium last Saturday was much different than some of the Ducks’ previous home contests this year. After 777 yards of offense and a formidable performance from its defense, Oregon walked away with its first Pac-12 home win of the season. The win marked the Ducks’ third in a row and also made the program bowl eligible for the 11th consecutive year – a contrast to the place many thought the team would be headed after it opened the season at 3-3.

It is why defensive backs coach John Neal said he’d be lying if he didn’t view the win on Saturday as a milestone.

“We got destroyed against Utah,” Neal said after the game . “To be where we are, I’m grateful, I’m relieved.”

But Oregon’s next test may truly indicate just where Oregon exactly is. No. 7 Stanford, its quarterback Kevin Hogan and Heisman candidate Christian McCaffrey pose a threat unlike the Ducks’ defense has faced in a while.

But it is a brand of football Oregon is more than familiar with, as the matchup between speed and physicality has always played a key role in each team’s season. With Oregon’s offense appearing to look the way it is advertised, the matchup expects to be a much tougher test for Stanford’s defense than it would’ve been a month ago.

STANFORD OFFENSE VS. OREGON DEFENSE

OREGON OFFENSE VS. STANFORD DEFENSE

In 2013, an undefeated Oregon team went to Stanford and was physically dominated. Stanford running back Tyler Gaffney rushed 45 times, and the Cardinal methodically drove down the field and ate up a majority of the clock while building a 26-0 lead at one point. This Stanford team is similar, and leads the nation in average time of possession, holding the ball for 35 minutes, 16 seconds per game. It is different in that it is far more explosive though.

Hogan has shown the traits of a much improved passer and opposing defenses have yet to find an answer for McCaffrey, who’s average of 246.1 all-purpose yards per game leads the nation. In addition, the matchup between Stanford’s physically imposing tight ends and Oregon’s secondary creates another monstrous challenge. Hogan’s favorite receiver not named McCaffrey, 6-foot-4, 248-pound tight end Austin Hooper, has 22 catches for 356 yards and five touchdowns.

Oregon’s midseason turnaround is not a mystery. With Vernon Adams Jr. back and healthy, the Ducks offense has taken off. In its last three games, Oregon is averaging 43.7 points and 573.3 yards of offense per game. The numbers have continued to steadily increase each week as Adams becomes more comfortable. In addition, Adams’ presence through the air has clearly affected the ground game. On Saturday, four running backs combined for 477 yards, with Royce Freeman leading the group with 180.

Stanford’s defense is a different beast than Cal’s, though. The unit is giving up 20.2 points per game and leads the Pac-12 in total defense, allowing 338.7 yards per game.

⚑ GAMEDAY Bralon Addison leads the Ducks in receiving yards this season and will likely make a large impact against Stanford.. (Adam Eberhardt)

OREGON VS. STANFORD ➡ CHRISTOPHER

KEIZUR, @CHRISKEIZUR

The top two teams in the Pac-12 North are set for a showdown this Saturday, as Oregon travels south to Palo Alto, California, to face No. 7 Stanford.

The Ducks (6-3, 4-2 Pac-12) come into the game on the heels of a 44-28 victory over California, a game in which they seemed to finally get things back on track. Oregon overcame a slow start and an early turnover to put up 777 total yards of offense — the most in program history.

The Cardinal (8-1, 7-0 Pac-12) have been just as impressive since its week one glitch against Northwestern. Since that early loss, Stanford has gone undefeated, most recently beating Colorado 42-10.

Oregon quarterbacks vs.

Stanford secondary

The Cardinal are built to run the ball and it has the offensive line to do it. On the season, their line has helped them rank 15th in the nation in rushing yards per game with 227.7. On the other side of the trenches is Oregon’s defensive line, a group that has shown the ability to put pressure on the quarterback. The question is whether they can hold up throughout the contest, a task that will require them to fill the space and free up the linebackers from blocks.

Against Washington State, the second best passing offense in the country, the Stanford secondary turned in a solid game. It held Cougars quarterback Luke Falk to 354 yards and picked him off twice in the win.

The Cardinal will be looking for a similar performance against Oregon’s Vernon Adams Jr., who has really come on since returning from his injury. Adams finished the Cal game with 300 yards and four touchdowns. Look for Oregon to try to get him going early with short throws before allowing him to take a shot deep.

STANFORD: DeForest Buckner Christian McCaffrey Austin Hooper One of the stars for Oregon this season has been defensive end DeForest Buckner, who has been unstoppable at times for offensive lines. Playing with a cast on a wrist he injured during the ASU game, Buckner recorded a teamhigh seven tackles and one sack last weekend. The sack forced the Golden Bears to settle for a field goal. On the season, the senior has 51 tackles and seven sacks.

McCaffrey is a workhorse for Stanford, doing pretty much everything the team asks of him.

The sophomore Heisman hopeful puts up numbers running the ball, in the passing game and as a return man. He has an explosive first step and a seemingly endless amount of energy. This season, he has already run for 1,207 yards and six touchdowns. He’s showing no signs of slowing down. For the Ducks, it’s less a question of stopping McCaffrey than it is just trying to contain him.

They sure do know how to grow tight ends on The Farm. Hooper is just the latest talent to pass through the Cardinal program at that position. He leads the team with 356 receiving yards and five touchdowns.

Oregon’s unusual season has resulted in a mixed, but loud, social media response.

(Cole Elsasser)

SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE TEAM’S REPUTATION ➡ JOSEPH They were well aware of the malicious chatter that can come from the angered pounding of computer keys. As much as members of the Oregon football team — a team that fell to 3-3 after a 45-38 double overtime loss to Washington State — did their best to not pay attention to it, they couldn’t completely ignore the noise on social media.

And there was a lot of it.

“It was a different start of the season than the fans or the media have seen,” Oregon senior offensive tackle Tyler Johnstone said. “Of course you’re going to have a bunch of people asking questions and jumping on the ‘Oregon sucks’ bandwagon, but we keep believing in each other, we keep pushing each other and we silence the noise.”

Since the loss to Washington State, Oregon has won its last three games. Subsequently, the noise on social media has changed its tune. The expectations for the team have changed, also. A return trip to the College Football Playoff is out of the question, but there’s still more on the line for the Ducks this season.

“It’s a matter of, ‘What do we want to be remembered by?’ “ Oregon center Matt Hegarty said.

“I think preseason expectations go all over the place.

But at a few points in the season things have gone all over the place, so I think we’re trying to solidify what people remember about this 2015 team — and that’s a team that competed and closed out the season the way they were supposed to.”

H OY T, @ J OE J H OY T

In recent weeks, fans have been more positive with players on social media. For some players, the backand-forth nature of fans on sites like Twitter— where fans have an outlet of direct communication with members of the football team — is comical. Players share stories and laugh about it.

Oregon defensive back Arrion Springs remembers the time a fan tweeted at him, saying, “I don’t pay college tuition to watch Arrion Springs play football.”

Springs said that same fan apologized to him last week. “So, we’re all good now,” Springs joked.

Oregon receiver Devon Allen has had similar experiences with fans on social media.

“One week, I’m the best football player in football history. The next, they think I should just stick to track,” Allen said. “That’s just how it is sometimes. You can’t really pay attention because people are going to say what they’re going to say. It’s not a big deal.”

With three games left in Oregon’s schedule, the “Oregon sucks” bandwagon that Johnstone mentioned from after the Washington State loss isn’t as full as it used to be. The team is on a positive trajectory and they want the fans to join them.

“I hate to sound disrespectful at all, but I always go back to the quote, ‘The lion doesn’t concern himself with the opinions of sheep,’ “ Hegarty said. “I’m a really positive guy, so if you’re not moving in that positive direction, then you’re kind of a sheep — and you tune those people out. Anyone that wants to be on board in a positive way, they can jump on board.”

here’s a familiar tale being weaved in the late season matchup that is Stanford versus Oregon. Down at The Farm on Saturday, a top-10 team — equipped with an explosive Heisman Trophy candidate — looking towards the College Football Playoff, will face off against an upstart underdog, attempting to ruin any chance of a National Championship appearance for its conference rival.

In 2012, a redshirt freshman quarterback named Kevin Hogan led No. 13 Stanford past undefeated, No. 2 Oregon, 17-14, in a midNovember matchup.

In 2013, it was Marcus Mariota and the No. 2 Oregon Ducks with hopes of a national championship against No. 5 Stanford. The Cardinal derailed those dreams, once again, with a 26-20 victory.

This year, the script is flipped.

No. 7 Stanford is 8-1, has a Heisman candidate in Christian McCaffrey and is eying one of the four coveted spots in the playoff. The Cardinal’s only loss of the season came in week one against Northwestern. Oregon head coach Mark Helfrich called it a “major anomaly,� saying there

was no magic formula to stopping Stanford after watching the film.

The Ducks, at 6-3 after a three-game winning streak, have the chance to do what their counterpart did to them twice over the last three years. Currently, Oregon opens up as an eightand-a-half-point underdog against Stanford. It’s a role the team will have to adjust to. “I know the kids are really excited to play this one,� Oregon offensive coordinator Scott Frost said. “It’s kind of neat that we’re going in as the underdog and the spoiler. And that’s a role our guys aren’t used to playing.� “A modern day Gladiator fight�

There’s one member of Oregon who’s played the role of underdog against the Cardinal before.

Two years ago, Matt Hegarty was in South Bend, Indiana, playing center for Notre Dame. And three weeks after Oregon’s loss to Stanford, Hegarty was down in Palo Alto, as No. 25 Notre Dame took on No. 8 Stanford. The Fighting Irish lost, 27-20.

Like Oregon, the matchup between Notre Dame and Stanford is a yearly routine. Hegarty remembers close games against the Cardinal. “You’re sore the next day, that’s for sure,� Hegarty said. “They come ready to smack heads.�

Hegarty’s soreness the day after was a testament to Stanford’s simple mentality of trying to “out-physical and out-muscle � its opponents. “It’s a modern day Gladiator fight,�

Hegarty said.

Though Hegarty’s perspective is limited to what the Stanford defensive line has shown him over the past couple of years, he says their tough mentality can be seen throughout all phases of the Stanford team. “On offense, they’re going to run it down your throat and they tell you, ‘We’re going to run it right here,’ “ Oregon defensive lineman DeForest Buckner said.

Buckner says he looks at Stanford’s confidence in the run game as a challenge. For a field filled with 22 players, the simplicity of the Cardinal’s offensive game plan, in year’s past, required toughness in one-on-one match-ups. “It’s mano a mano, you and another guy — sometimes two other guys,� he said. “But yeah, this whole game is pretty much about toughness and pride. “I’m not going to let another guy say he’s going to kick my behind and run it down our throat.�

A ROLE REVERSAL “Wild Caff” One thing Stanford didn’t have in its offensive arsenal two years ago was a Heisman Trophy offensive weapon, or, as ESPN’s Ivan Maisel calls Cardinal star Christian McCaffrey, something that “had been designed two miles down the road from the Stanford campus, in Elon Musk’s dream factory. Like a Tesla, McCaffrey runs fast, turns at top speed, and doesn’t make a sound.”

On Tuesday, the Stanford athletic department launched a site, promoting its “Wild Caff” for the same award Mariota won a year ago. When you open the site, McCaffrey’s numbers roll up faster than dollars at a gas pump: 2,174 all-purpose yards, 1,207 rushing yards and 325 receiving yards.

Helfrich called McCaffrey phenomenal, lauding McCaffrey’s versatility. Helfrich said McCaffrey’s playmaking ability, along with others on the Stanford offense, adds to an experienced group that Oregon is used to facing up front.

“I think he should take a week off,” Helfrich joked when asked how he plans to stop him.

“Keep him healthy for the stretch run.”

“He’s still there, God Almighty”

After Oregon’s 44-28 win over Cal last Saturday, defensive backs coach John Neal acknowledged who his team is going up against this weekend.

“I know it’s Stanford, I know how good they are,” Neal said. “[Kevin] Hogan is still there, he’s 100 years old.

“He’s still there, God Almighty.”

While the roles between Stanford and Oregon may have switched coming into Saturday, the presence of Hogan under center for the Cardinal hasn’t. Hogan, Stanford’s fifth-year senior starting quarterback, is making his fourth start against Oregon after going 2-1 against the Ducks in his previous three games.

“Hogan is a seasoned, senior quarterback in this conference,” Oregon defensive coordinator Don Pellum said. “He’s seen it all.”

In 2012, Hogan, inserted as the Cardinal’s starting quarterback after Josh Nunes was injured a week before, went into Autzen Stadium and beat the undefeated (10-0), No. 2 ranked Ducks, 17-14, in his first career road start.

“Kevin Hogan,” Buckner said, “he always has a great game against us. He can throw when he has time, and he can hurt you with his feet. A lot of

times, guys don’t think that he can hurt you with his feet, but he definitely can.”

At 6-foot-4, 218 pounds, Hogan has cemented himself as a threat to run this season. In a 30-28 victory over Washington State on Oct. 31, Hogan out-rushed McCaffrey, 112 to 107 yards.

“They’re our biggest game, our biggest rival – whatever you want to call it” Though an underdog in this year’s game against Stanford, with no National Championship in sight this time, Oregon is still playing for something.

The Ducks are currently No. 2 in the Pac-12 North behind Stanford.

Oregon needs to win out, and hope Stanford picks up another conference loss, to represent the North in the Pac-12 Championship game.

“They are our game this week, so they’re our biggest game, our biggest rival – whatever you want to call it,” Oregon wide receiver Dwayne Stanford said. “For us to get where we want to go, we have to win out. This is the next step on that ladder.”

⚑ GAMEDAY WHY STANFORD WILL BEAT

OREGON

**Editor’s Note: Each week during football season, we feature an essay from the opponent’s student newspaper on why Oregon will lose. Do-Hyoung Park is a managing editor at The Stanford Daily.**

➡ DO-HYOUNG Stanford fans are getting a pretty healthy sense of déjà vu looking at this Saturday’s matchup between the Cardinal and the Ducks.

And not the good kind, either.

Stanford is 7-0 in the Pac-12 for the first time since 2011. Stanford is favored against Oregon for the first time since 2011. Stanford is back in the top three in the Pac-12 in scoring offense for the first time since — you guessed it — 2011.

Four years later, Stanford fans still have PTSD-like flashbacks of Darron Thomas threading the needle over and over and over again and LaMichael James showing Cardinal defenders the true meaning of speed in 2011, when the Ducks trashed No. 4 Stanford 53-30 on The Farm and knocked Stanford out of the national title game in a heap of duck feathers, broken spirits and crushed dreams.

But this time around, there will be no such travesty in the walls of Stanford Stadium. The déjà vu stops here.

Make no mistake — Stanford won’t be able to hold Oregon’s rejuvenated offense at bay all afternoon.

Oregon will score points — and probably a fair number of points at that.

But the difference on Saturday will be that Stanford’s battle-tested, hard-hitting, high-flying offense will meet little to no resistance from an abysmal Oregon defense that ranks dead-last in the conference in scoring defense and passing defense and has somehow still looked even worse to the eye than it has on paper.

PA R K , T H E S TA N F O R D D A I LY

In a game whose final score will probably resemble a basketball tally more than a football one, I trust Stanford’s defense to force the occasional Oregon mistake and get the occasional stop much more than I trust Oregon’s defense to stop Stanford’s offense.

Stanford has a veteran offensive line that likes nothing more than to fling defenders into orbit to pave the way for Stanford’s Heisman candidate running back, tight ends who are open even when they’re not open and freshman Bryce Love and his 4.3 speed when he gets in space.

With that in mind, Stanford can still play oldfashioned, big-boy, run-it-up-your-throat Stanford football when it wants to, but the offense has added a few dimensions from years past — namely, the blazing speed and open-field ability of Christian McCaffrey, Love and wide receiver Michael Rector — and I wouldn’t hesitate to say that this is a more complete, talented offense than anything the team had back in the Andrew Luck days.

I’m confident that even if Oregon’s front seven can stop one element of Stanford’s game, the Cardinal will be able to keep the chains moving by adjusting, whatever it takes. Note that Stanford leads the conference in third-down conversions.

For example, if Oregon takes away the running game — Stanford’s bread and butter— Kevin Hogan still leads the Pac-12 in passing efficiency and has his best matchup of the season against Oregon’s lost secondary. He has also been a great runner for the last few weeks, even on a sprained ankle, to bail

the running game out against Washington State and Colorado when things weren’t looking good.

I just don’t think there’s any winning against Stanford’s offense right now. If Washington and UCLA couldn’t stop the Cardinal, what makes people think that Oregon can?

And on the other side of the ball, while it’s true that Adams makes this offense look like the Oregon blur of old, I don’t think the Ducks’ offense has the surgical precision, the identity or the swagger that the Mariota-led units of old had. Yes, the Ducks put up a school-record 777 yards last week, but that was against Cal, who might as well not even play rush defense.

Meanwhile, Washington and Michigan State — two teams with comparable defenses to Stanford’s that the Ducks faced with Adams — held Oregon to 26 and 28.

Factor in Stanford’s ludicrous time-of-possession advantage, its conference-leading third-down defense and its top-two red zone defense, and it’ll be up to Adams to take full advantage of the few chances he’ll get. And I’m not confident that he’ll be able to do that.

I’m personally of the opinion that rumors of Oregon’s demise have been greatly exaggerated and that the Ducks are still a good team. But the 2015 Stanford Cardinal are an elite team. And at the end of the day, one of those two teams will definitely put up 40 this week. Much to De’Anthony Thomas’ chagrin, I’m doubtful that it’ll be the Quack Attack.

CREATE AN SPLC ON CAMPUS CHAPTER TODAY.

When asked about Stanford’s Kevin Hogan on Tuesday, Oregon head coach Mark Helfrich revealed how ready he is to prepare for a new Cardinal quarterback.

“He can go any time as far as we’re concerned,” Helfrich said.

His colleague, Oregon defensive backs coach John Neal, gave a similar statement after the Ducks’ 44-28 win Saturday.

“He’s 100 years old.” Neal said. “He’s still there. God Almighty.”

This Saturday, Hogan will face Oregon for the fourth time as a starting quarterback.

He’s the owner of a 2-1 record against the Ducks, and although the stat sheet won’t indicate it, has mostly dominated Oregon’s defense.

However, Hogan won’t be the scariest threat for Oregon’s defense on Saturday. That honor undoubtedly goes to the guy he’s handed the ball off to this year, Christian McCaffrey.

As a sophomore, McCaffrey has emerged as arguably the most versatile threat in all of college football.

He’s averaging 246.1 allpurpose yards per game and is on pace to break the NCAA record for most all-purpose yards in a season. How he’s done that? By averaging 6.1 yards per carry, 11.6 yards per catch and 28.8 yards per kick return.

It comes as no surprise that Stanford started an official Heisman campaign for him Tuesday. Helfrich would like to have no part of him.

“I think he should take the week off,”Helfrich jokingly said. “Keep him healthy for the stretch run.”

McCaffrey is coming off a game last week in which he ran the ball 23 times for 147 yards while also throwing a touchdown pass.

In the latest College Football Playoff rankings, Stanford was listed at No. 7, and one of the main reasons is because of what the sophomore continues to do when he steps on the football field each week.

Oregon hasn’t faced anyone like him. Utah’s Devontae Booker comes close, but still, Booker is not having a season quite like McCaffrey is having.
