Poor Ducks :(

Dixon Out For Season

Dennis Dixon will have surgery on the left knee that buckled early in second-ranked Oregon's upset loss to Arizona, spoiling his chance to win the Heisman Trophy.

The quarterback tore his anterior cruciate ligament during Oregon's 35-23 victory over Arizona State on Nov. 3, according to coach Mike Bellotti, but he had rested it and felt as if he was ready to play Thursday night against the Wildcats.

Now Dixon will miss the rest of this season.

"He's a little bit despondent, because he obviously wanted to continue to play," Bellotti said.

The versatile Dixon was one of the front-runners for the Heisman after he put the Ducks in line for the national title. Oregon had started the season unranked and was picked to finish sixth in the Pacific-10 Conference.

Drawing comparisons to Vince Young, Dixon completed 67.7 percent of his passes for 2,136 yards, 20 touchdowns and four interceptions. The senior from San Leandro, Calif., also ran for 583 yards and nine scores.

Thursday night's 34-24 loss to the unranked Wildcats knocked the Ducks (8-2, 5-2) out of the national title picture. Oregon was ranked behind LSU and ahead of Oklahoma and undefeated Kansas.

Dixon's left knee crumbled as he tried to plant on an option carry with about five minutes to go in the first quarter against Arizona (5-6, 4-4).

His recovery after surgery will take some six months, said team physician Bob Crist. The date for the surgery was not yet set.

Dixon first injured his knee at home against Arizona State. While he knew the extent of the injury, he felt he could still play.

"He asked us on behalf of himself and his family to keep that quiet," Bellotti said in a conference call with reporters Friday afternoon.

It was Dixon's intention to delay the surgery until after the season, the coach said.

"While he certainly had some personal goals at stake, anyone who is familiar with Dennis knows that any decisions he made were purely in the interest of his teammates and not motivated by any personal gains," Bellotti said.

He wore a brace Thursday night and said he had no pain or signs of trouble earlier in the game when he ran 38-yards for a touchdown on the Ducks' first possession.

"It shows you've got to play your heart out, because you never know when you're going to get that last play," Dixon told a group of reporters after the game.

Before he left the game against the Wildcats, Dixon completed 5-of-8 passes for 62 yards.

Brady Leaf, who replaced Dixon, completed 22-of-46 passes for 163 yards and threw two interceptions.

As for the Heisman, Dixon said after leaving the game Thursday night that he never really played with it in mind.

"I never did. My teammates know that. I'm playing for them and just having fun in the process in my senior season playing college football," he said.

Damn man, that sucks so bad for him...

Down goes LSU, and later on today Missouri or Kansas will go down...Texas fucking looses to Texas A&M for the second year in a row...I gotta say, Colt plays awesome sometimes, and then at others...I don't know what the fuck he's thinking...He's got a lot of heart though, this season has been a bit rough...They still may get a somewhat decent bowl though...However, what we are very likely looking at this year is 2 schools playing for the national championship that are far from national powerhouses...

...I'm so dissappointed in my horns.....
