	Williams looks to himself for increased leadership The junior wide receiver says he has been 'disappointed' in his play by Kevin Hudson Junior wide receiver Jaison Williams says it's time for him, along with every veteran on the offense, to step up their game if the Ducks want to have any hope of winning the Civil War.

	Dixon still Heisman worthy in my mind In my opinion \| Still on his feet by Robert Husseman "I want to play!!" We wanted you to play as well, Dennis Dixon.
