Oregon
played pitch and catch all day. Joey
Harrington had plenty of targets in
Samie Parker, who had a huge game
after an early drop; Keenan Howry;
and Justin Peelle, a great red-zone
threat all year. Maurice Morris had
a spectacular scoring run when it
looked like he was down. The line
did a great job of protecting Harrington,
who was brilliant. After his four-TD
performance, I would be hard-pressed
not to put him over David Carr now
as the top quarterback in the NFL
draft. Nick Alioti's defense was spectacular,
shutting down a Colorado running game
that had been running roughshod over
teams. Colorado dominated Nebraska.
Oregon dominated Colorado. So if Nebraska
beats Miami, Oregon deserves at least
a co-national championship.
