Leave the elliptical and hit that iron PAIGE POLLARA Ladies, please, get off the elliptical machines and listen up. There is so much more to do at the gym than running in place along with all the other drones. Although the elliptical can provide high-intensity workouts, many girls just keep them on a low resistance and think they are doing their body good. Newsflash: There’s a reason you aren’t seeing results. Here are some exercises girls should try next time they hit the gym:
1. Free weights
3. Cardiovascular
The section of free weights can be a little scary for a girl to venture into alone. It’s full of meathead guys who are benching 40-pound weights. However, there are benefits to trying to give your arms some tender, loving care. The reason? Ladies like to be toned. A lot of the time we forget about arms to focus on getting thin, but the jiggle is noticeable.
Of course, sweating is the best way to shed the pounds. We spend endless hours on machines watching the calorie counter go up. Using the treadmill, spin bike or regular bike can be great ways of making that happen. But there’s a trick that a lot of girls seem to neglect. What to do? Intervals, they’re your best friends. Start out by doing a five-minute warm up, and then alternating between running for three minutes and jogging or walking for two minutes. The high-intensity three-minute sprints help to boost your metabolism while the two-minute stretches help the body recover. Additionally, intervals won’t put the same strain on your body as higher intensity runs will.
What to do? A manageable exercise is called swimmer’s press. Start with five-pound weights and your arms to your sides, but hold them palm up with the weight in hand. Bring them up toward your shoulders and twist your hands 180 degrees. Bring the weights out and up over your head. Bring them back down in the same motion. Do about 15 per set and about three sets to start out.
4. Core
Stop with the standard floor crunches already. They hurt your back and don’t really do too much in the abs department. It’s hard to break the old habit as we’ve been doing floor crunches since elementary school gym class. Try something new.
2. Dumbbell side dips
We all hate the area everyone refers to as the “muffin top.” You can do countless crunches and planks, but you aren’t targeting the proper area. Instead of targeting abs, you need a specific oblique workout.
What to do? Try hip raisers, focusing on your lower abs for this one. Lay flat with your back on the floor and your feet out in front of you. Raise your legs until they are perpendicular to the floor and then push your hips up, thrusting your legs toward the ceiling. Slowly bring them back down to the floor. Then repeat about 10 to 12 times a set for three sets.
What to do? Start with a 15-pound weight and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Slowly lower the weight and lean with it to one side. Go as far as you can, and then slowly bring yourself back upright. That’s one. Do about 20 per side.

UA blogger flaunts DIY fashion sense ALEXANDRA GIROUX
T
he life of a fashion blogger usually has to be pretty fabulous. Derek Ong, a retail and consumer sciences junior, knows this fact very well. Each step Ong takes exudes fabulosity with a modern edge, which is then applied to each of his wonderful blog posts. He created the fashion blog to post his extravagant style online and has recently been featured on the collegiate fashion trend
authority, College Fashionista. “I was really looking for a way to have a creative outlet,” Ong said. “I wanted to share my thoughts on upcoming trends and share my style as well.” Ong describes his blog as a place to share his projects, outfits and some of his travels. He also showcases many of the DIY projects he picks up in his free time, as well as outfits and pieces he observes while traveling. “I try to make pieces for my wardrobe at any case I can get,” Ong said. “I have to say that my
favorites that I have made are my clear bow tie and clutch … they are such statement pieces and they go with just about everything.” Ong’s personal style is just as unique — it’s very East Coast, with wild, popping color. Staples in Ong’s wardrobe consist of his daily glasses, boots (typically purchased from ASOS) and rolled shorts. Ong said he does not have a preference for any particular

The UA Harry Potter Alliance Join Dumbledore’s army in campaigns for social change. UAHPA is a chapter of the international nonprofit alliance that dedicates itself to improving the world in any way possible. The alliance was founded in hopes of taking the powerful and well-received messages

UAHPA will commence its most recent community service project this week by establishing its first station for the Take a Book, Leave a Book program, giving students access to new, free books on campus. UAHPA’s meetings are every other Thursday in the Sabino Room on the third level of the Student Union Memorial Center. The next is Oct. 11 at 7 p.m. Cars, Comics and Cards club The Cars, Comics and Cards club offers philanthropy, car shows, video games and every other supposedly nerdy activity you could possibly fathom. These members love playing Yu-Gi-Oh!, World of Warcraft and Magic the Gathering trading card games, and they raise money to cure cancer while they’re at it. They are also in the process of organizing a video game tournament,
of athleticism and bravery that may have been hidden all along. If you’re feeling rugged and don’t mind getting knocked around a little bit, check out this recently established club. Anyone with a lot or minimal roller derby ability is encouraged to come out and participate in the Derby Cats’ morning and evening practices. “You can make new friends and discover a confidence that you never knew you had by playing derby,” said Derby Cats’ president Samantha Campas. For now, the team is getting down the basics of becoming skilled skaters, hoping to progress to playing flat track derby in the near future. The team is working toward hosting competitive games that anyone can come to watch and support. Strap on your roller skates and check out the Derby Cat’s practice on the UA Mall any Tuesday at 7 p.m., Derby Cats Roller derby could bring out a side and Friday at 5:30 p.m.
which will feature “Call of Duty” and the classic “Super Smash Bros,” among other awesome and exciting games. CCC also holds the annual Car Show for Cancer, and its proceeds are donated to the American Cancer Society. The club raised more than $1,300 during last year’s philanthropy, and hopes to top that in this year’s event, taking place on Nov. 4 on the UA Mall. Max Lewis, president of CCC encourages prospective members to “come for the experience and stay for the good times and awesome games.” Weekly gaming tournaments are held every Wednesday between the gaming rooms by The Cellar at 7 p.m. If you are interested in participating in this philanthropy or making a donation, check out the Car Shows for Cancer Facebook page.

stores though — his basic fashion philosophy is to purchase a good deal of basics and utilize them in different ways, so as not to limit his style. Though his daily attire stands out on its own, Ong is usually acknowledged for his unconventional hair style. It essentially takes the form of a ocean wave on top of his head. Ong often gets asked about his hair or atypical looks.
“People always want to touch it because they think it will be soft,” Ong said. “But there are so many products in it, like gel and hairspray. They always look disappointed after.” He said the process to achieve this look also requires washing his hair day and night. In true male fashionista style, he is looking to change his hair a bit soon, and add some vibrant color. “I feel like my clothes have a way of expressing who I am in ways that I cannot, which is why I also enjoy blogging about fashion,” Ong said.

the sentiment, but as soon as they’re converted, they will. From a sales perspective, Amazing Discoveries has a lot to offer. For fans of Magic The Gathering, Amazing Discoveries is the only place worth going in Tucson. The store is always stocked up on new and old sets alike, has a massive collection of singles from all across Magic’s extensive history and takes trade-ins for good, fair prices. Aside from Magic, Amazing Discoveries also stocks the World of Warcraft trading card game, the Pokémon trading card game and the Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game. What’s even better, for all three games there are weekly tournaments and drafts with a diverse turnout and competitive play. For fans of more traditional board games, Amazing Discoveries also has a wide variety of board games you’ve probably never heard of. Dungeons and Dragons players are covered too, as the store has a bookshelf of player manuals to help veteran players and newbies alike. More recently, Amazing

The selection of miniatures is still pretty limited, but the space is great for playing — which any miniature gamer knows is the most scarce resource. Amazing Discoveries is

When employees are busy running the store, there’s always bound to be someone looking for a game — and that means a good learning experience. Amazing Discoveries also offers another great resource in the form of articles written by members of the community. Most, if not all, concern Magic The Gathering, since it’s the store’s most popular game. But every article is a gem and something that can help new players and veterans alike. Aside from all that, the store has a lot of color to it — literally. The huge space is covered in gaming-related artwork, such as Magic mosaics and giant fantasy creatures. Amazing Discoveries’ big white walls are often being added to, and artists work while the store is open, meaning there’s a chance to catch the works in progress. Whether or not you’ve played any of the games mentioned, venturing down to Amazing Discoveries won’t ever be a mistake.

VEGGIE UP AT 4th AVE.’S B LINE
PHOTOS BY NOELLE HARO-GOMEZ and Hayden jorde
From decadent desserts to classic sandwiches, 4th Avenue’s B Line Restaurant caters to vegetarians while delivering a clean, chic atmopshere for all HAYDEN JORDE
B
The roasted veggie sandwich, for example, is a mix of grilled squash, mushrooms and peppers, with melted havarti cheese and a pesto sauce, served between a toasty rustic roll and a side of cracked pepper chips. It was exactly the kind of warm cheesy goodness you’d hope it would be, and it’s filling to boot. The grilled veggie sandwich does run on the steep side at $8.95 — but it beats a $9 burger anywhere else. If you aren’t sold on the main course, then go for the dessert. Imagine a tower of decadent desserts twirling behind a glowing glass showcase. This is where B Line displays its ever-changing menu of dessert pastries, pies, tarts and cakes. They showcase everything from salted caramel tarts and pot de crème to more familiar desserts. However, B Line manages to put its own twist on these classics, such as the raspberry rhubarb pie and the chocolate cappuccino cheesecake. The decadent chocolate cappuccino cheesecake doesn’t disappoint, even at the price of $5.95. The presentation is interesting, featuring what could be described as a chocolate mast atop this tasty dish. The cheesecake was rich without being overbearing, and no singular flavor dominated the taste. Instead, it is a delicious and balanced blend of cappuccino, cheesecake and chocolate flavors. A bold cup of locally roasted coffee from Exo Roast Co. went along with dessert nicely. Whether you’re looking for a restaurant to take your date out to eat, or you’re just looking for a quality joint to grab a cup of coffee at, keep B Line in mind this weekend.
Line, in a word, is charming. Despite the construction on Fourth Avenue and the parking problems this poses, B Line is doing business. The clientele on a Tuesday afternoon appear to be older residents of Tucson and graduate students out to enjoy lunch and a micro brew on tap. The service is friendly and doesn’t forget about you, even during a rush. The interior is chic, featuring wooden counter tops, an interesting arrangement of seating and tasteful wall hangings. Atmosphere aside, the food is delicious even if you don’t eat meat. You can get out for less than $10 a person, making it an excellent restaurant to take a date to while enjoying some local cuisine. Additionally, all of their eggs, tortillas and cheese are local, as well as the in-season veggies. The spread of vegetarian options on the menu varies from meal to meal. For breakfast the vegetarian options include crepes, breakfast burritos and bagel sandwiches. These will cost you between $5 and $6, but it’s definitely worth the money. For lunch and dinner, the vegetarian possibilities are pretty varied. As a vegetarian, nothing on the menu is going to cost more than nine dollars, with the exception of the pasta alla vodka. B Line serves pastas, salads, black bean burgers, soups, burritos and quesadillas. But what really brings the whole menu together is the way the meals incorporate skillful cooking techniques and fresh ingredients.

MUSIC
Salvador Duran — Martin’s at 7 p.m.
THIS IS
ALEX WHELAN
It might be named for the bars, but this Saturday’s Club Crawl is going to be all about the bands. With so many groups it can be tough to plan your schedule for the night, so here are our picks for top artists at Club Crawl:
Salvador Duran’s mix between flamenco and Spanish pop music is the perfect way to set off an evening dedicated to exploring Tucson’s nightlife. Duran’s powerful voice and live wire performances will be enough to convince you of why he’s become such a leading figure in the local scene. You can find his music on the Internet, but there’s nothing quite like the passion that Duran brings to a live performance. There’s also something to be said about starting a night of inevitable debauchery with an artist that embodies the more subtle side of the Tucson sound. In this regard, Duran won’t disappoint.
Hank Topless — Cafe Passe at 8 p.m.
If you’re in the mood for variety, look no further than the inimitable Hank Topless. The best way to classify Hank’s sound is somewhere around hard outlaw country, but it’d be a disservice to leave it at that. Live performances from Hank Topless are always mixed bags, combining elements from the best of country and proto-country with his own dour originals to form what might be the best dive bar setlist in town. His low-key sound may not be the most conducive to drunken sing-alongs. Rather, Hank Topless is there to sing away your troubles and set you right for the rockin’ night ahead. His set does overlap with Salvador Duran’s, but if you get a chance, give Hank as much time as you can. He’s worth it.
Copper & Congress — Club Congress (outdoor stage) at 9 p.m.
Fresh off its headlining gig at Plush last Friday, the unstoppable Copper & Congress is bringing its powerful live act to the Wavelab Studio Showcase outside Club Congress on Toole Avenue. C&C have been making waves since their formation in March, and the mind-boggling amount of shows they’ve been playing has only been refining the band’s performances. A Copper & Congress set moves seamlessly from jazzy introspection to cathartic rock and roll. It’s no exaggeration to say there’s something for everyone. Snazzy acoustic/electric guitar interplay? Check. One of the tightest and most eccentric rhythm sections? Check. A throbbing electric piano? Check again. Not to mention that lead singer/songwriter Katie Haverly has been debuting new songs at almost every show the band has played recently. So if you’re already a fan, the show this Saturday will be a great opportunity to hear what the band’s been up to.
Fayuca — The Hut (outdoor stage) at 10:30 p.m.
After three hours of music and who knows how many hours of drinking, it’s hard to think of a better band to see than Phoenix’s Fayuca. The best way to characterize its sound would be a cross between punk and reggae, which in practice is as wild and great as it looks on paper. Fayuca will definitely bring the energy with its fast, distorted shorter songs to keep you up and at ‘em if your energy’s starting to fade. For those of you who might want to take things down a notch this late at night however, Fayuca also happens to specialize in a Sublime-like groove to chill you out and keep the night rolling by. No matter what it plays, Fayuca is a band to throw up your beer to — sure to be one of the highlights of the evening.
The Hood Internet — Club Congress at 11:30 p.m.-1 a.m.
If by the end of the night you’re more in the mood for dancing be sure to head over to the indoor stage of Club Congress for a dance party with The Hood Internet. The group just released its album FEAT this week, and its rising popularity in the mashup community will ensure that you’ll be in good company if you choose this show. Its simultaneous set time with DeVotchKa could complicate things if you’re in the mood to both drunkenly sob and dance your pants off.

WHERE TO BE THIS WEEKEND

DeVotchKa — The Rialto at 11:30 p.m.-1 a.m. Possibly the most well-known band playing Club Crawl, the Grammy-nominated DeVotchKa has a unique brand of Gypsy balladry and symphonic melodrama that might just make it the show of the night. The band has ties to Tucson through its working relationship with WaveLab Studio’s Craig Schumacher, and every time it passes through, the band puts on a show for the ages. A venue with the booming acoustics of The Rialto is a perfect fit for DeVotchKa’s larger-than-life instrumentation. In a town where Calexico reigns supreme, you can count on those world music influences sounding as colorful as possible indoors. If live strings and accordions tickle your fancy, don’t miss DeVotchKa.
Worried about streetcar construction interfering with Club Crawl? No need, says Club Crawl organizer Jeb Schoonover. “It’s not really going to affect us because we shut down Congress Street anyway,” Schoonover said. Parking shouldn’t be an issue as all parking garages downtown will be open, though Congress Street’s shutdown does eliminate a few street spaces. Hotel Congress restaurant manager Karlen Ross agrees that parking isn’t going to be an issue — and neither will the construction fences. “Obviously, construction has made downtown harder to access, but we’re expecting [Club Crawl] to be busy,” he said. Club Congress will be the epicenter of the night, but that’s the only venue on the north side of the street, as the other main downtown participants (The Hub, Playground, The District Tavern) are on the south side of Congress Street. “It may seem boxed in, but people will be able to freely access the venues,” Ross said. — K.C.

MILO GREENE IS GIVING DREAM POP A MAKEOVER

f all the sounds currently coming out of Los Angeles, you wouldn’t expect folk to be as prevalent as it is. When the success of bands like Mumford & Sons and The Lumineers is taken into account, it does make some sense. But when you add the shimmering musical traits that seem to be the common thread between a lot of Los Angeles’ indie bands, you get something different. You get Milo Greene. No, Milo Greene isn’t a person — it’s a hell of a band. Taking on the name of a fictional band manager used to book the band’s earliest gigs, Milo Greene came into being only three short years ago, and it has been moving steadily forward since. “We’re just trying to write the best songs we possibly can, and whatever has that sonic quality of other bands upand-coming around us, those are all just products to attract fans,” said vocalist and instrumentalist Graham Fink, after returning from a promotional visit to Big Sur, Calif. Fink’s role in the band may seem complicated, because it is. The members of Milo Greene switch roles of musicianship with a fluidity and grace that’s truly the product of a group of multi-instrumentalists coming together. That fluidity is present all throughout the band’s eponymous debut that dropped this past July. While the record does move from point A to point B without skipping a beat, its cohesiveness isn’t that intentional.

“It’s hardly a narrative — each song kind of speaks for itself, though there’s a general mission statement throughout,” Fink said. That mission is to break down walls. Though the band would much rather be classified as dream pop in lieu of association with its folkier counterparts, Milo Greene’s ability to blend into most musical situations sets it apart. Having just come off tour with The Walkmen, and finding success while opening for The Civil
Wars, it could be said that Milo Greene exhibits a chameleon-like musicality that fits any bill. “It’s not about finding a niche as it is so much being able to kind of surpass those niches,” said Fink. “We can touch on a lot of areas and genres.” That might be what also saves Milo Greene. In as saturated an area as Los Angeles, it’s refreshing to see a band using its musicality to fuel its ascent, rather than employing social media
tactics to bring hits its way. The band has invested into its music, and it seems to be paying dividends. The critical response to Milo Greene’s debut has been exceptionally positive, and as for the near future, Milo Greene just plans to tour behind the album for the next year. “We’re really just happy that it’s out and that people are enjoying it,” Fink said. “That’s what it’s really about — breaking down those niches.”

fter leaving a successful band, embarking on a solo career is rarely an effort that results in something fruitful. But when you’re Alex Church, you find more opportunities than you could have imagined. Sea Wolf is the brainchild of Church, formerly of indie rock band Irving. The solo route seems to have been Church’s best option when crafting the hooky, radio-ready indie songs that Sea Wolf has come to be known for, since Church’s 2007 major label debut Leaves In The River. “Part of the reason I decided to do Sea Wolf was because I was kind of sick of the group decision-making process,” Church said. “It just took forever, so I just decided to try something where it was just me. I’m the decider.” Venturing out alone has worked wonders for him. You’ve likely heard Church’s distinguished vocals in commercials or on “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” soundtrack, layering his folk ability over punchy instrumentation, helping to bring the genre to the mainstream forefront. While he’s been chastised by the hipster-chic for lending his songs to these efforts, it’s proven to be beneficial for Sea Wolf as a brand, pushing his last two efforts up the Billboard Heatseekers chart to the No. 10 and No. 9 spots, respectively. And part of that may be because Old World Romance is a dead-ahead pop album — and that’s not a detriment by any means. Though Church’s previous efforts have erred on the side of
experimentation, his use of traditional structures on gems such as “Priscilla” and “Dear Fellow Traveler” have yielded the most digestible Sea Wolf effort yet. “I just wanted this album to be more straightforward,” Church said. “Instrumentally, it was more experimental for me, playing around with a drum machine. I wanted a more melodic record.” The album also sounds like a journey itself, and for good reason. After the whirlwind success of Leaves In The River, Church relocated to Montreal to stock up his creative reserves and write 2009’s White Water, White Bloom. Upon his return to the Golden State, Church penned and recorded Old World Romance, inadvertently making the record a homecoming soundtrack of sorts. “In the past, I’ve woven certain themes throughout the record,” Church said. “For certain songs, I’ve let them be whatever they needed to be. But I feel like there are themes for sure that came out naturally, just based on life experiences, returning to where you’re from.” For that, it seems California is where Church flourishes best. His return to Los Angeles’ Silver Lake neighborhood has imbued some of that breezy West Coast appeal into his sound, which lends well to Old World Romance. Though Church does admit that the record sounds more like him than it does a full band, a communal effort is displayed in the grand textures of his latest album. “It’s my process, it’s my project, but I like the people who play with me to have a piece of it. I want them to feel like a part of Sea Wolf.”

his weekend’s game is not a make-it-or-break-it for the Wildcats (3-2, 0-2 Pac-12). There are plenty of important games, including the matchup with No. 18 Stanford (3-1, 1-1 Pac-12) on Saturday in Palo Alto, Calif. But to think of the Stanford game or the Oregon State game as must-win game situations is wrong. It is imperative, however, that the Wildcats win at least one of the next four games. By the end of the stretch, Arizona will have played six consecutive ranked teams, including both the Oregon and Oregon State losses. If the Wildcats win at least one game, a bowl berth — thought of as unlikely in the preseason — all of a sudden becomes tangible. Losing all six — that might as well be 2011 part two. In 2011, the Wildcats and former head coach Mike Stoops embarked on a four-game journey against Oklahoma State, Stanford, Oregon and USC. Arizona struggled and lost all games by double digits — except for USC, which ended 48-41 after a comeback effort by former UA quarterback Nick Foles. Momentum is a huge part of football, and losing those four games in a row is what led to losses at home against Utah and at Colorado, the Pac-12’s worst team. This year, losing games against No. 18 Stanford, No. 23 Washington, No. 13 USC and No. 25 UCLA could be catastrophic. Head coach Rich Rodriguez said he believes the tough schedule is just a part of this team’s overall growth. “You come to a place like Arizona to play a great schedule, to play in a great league and we have to learn to adapt to it,” Rodriguez said. As we saw against Oklahoma State, if the Wildcats play perfectly, they can hang with just about any team. Therein lies the problem. Arizona won’t play perfect football every week and is also not good enough to beat any of the next four opponents without playing to perfection. Even with a “perfect game,” if such a thing exists in football, Arizona will still need supremely talented teams like the Trojans and Cardinal to play to imperfection. — Cameron Moon is journalism senior and he can be reached at sports@wildcat.arizona.edu or on Twitter via @MoonCameron20.

Stanford over UA, 35-27
ARIZONA USES a 3-3-5 defensive front, giving the Wildcats a speed advantage over some offenses which they will need to use against a big Stanford offensive line. The Cardinal also have two tight ends who exceed 6-foot-6, so the defense will have its hands full.
Stanford brings a power offense unlike any other the Wildcats have faced this season as the Wildcats travel to Palo Alto, Calif., on Saturday KYLE JOHNSON Arizona’s defensive scheme, the 3-3-5 “odd stack,” has matched up well with the primarily spreadbased offenses it has seen so far this season. But the Wildcats’ defense has an entirely new challenge on its plate Saturday as the UA heads to Palo Alto, Calif., to take on the big boys at No. 18 Stanford at noon at Stanford Stadium. “This might be the biggest team in college football,” head coach Rich Rodriguez said. With the size of Stanford, as well as its traditional power set, the UA system which defensive c o o r d i n a t o r Jeff Casteel implemented will face new defensive issues on Saturday. Even though the 3-3-5 “odd stack” is, in essence, a twist on the common 3-4 defense, the lack of a fourth linebacker puts Arizona at a major size disadvantage. And that’s without taking into account the overall lack of size on the Arizona roster. According to Casteel, the Wildcats won’t make any big changes with personnel, but stylistic adjustments are
“
necessary. “The style of play changes and we have to change with the style of play,” Casteel said. “[Just] do what we got to try to do to win the football game.” Stanford’s power set implements a variety of power-I formations, such as three tight end sets. This allows the Cardinal to pound the ball and play hardnose football, a throwback to how
We might be like a bunch of fire ants jumping all over those guys...hit him as hard as you can and hold on for dear life, and hope the cavalry comes to help you out.”
”
— Rich Rodriguez
football was played before spread offenses took over. “In the power set three to four yards is really big because they’re just going to come back and power again, three to four yards, three to four yards,” linebacker Marquis Flowers said. “It softens defenses up, but our mentality got to be, we’ve got to go body for body. We’ve got to hit.” Going body for body isn’t an easy task when a tight end the size
of Levine Toilolo catches the ball in the open field — the junior is 6-foot-8 and 265 pounds. “It’s the same way if I told you all to eat an elephant — one bite at a time, right?” Rodriguez said. “So we might be like a bunch of fire ants jumping all over those guys,” he added. “It might take five or six of them, so the first guy to get there hit him as hard as you can and hold on for dear life, and hope the cavalry comes to help you out.” The size isn’t limited to just tight ends though, as running back Stepfan Taylor is one of the best running backs in the Pac12 with at least 300 yards. In large part because of its size, Stanford isn’t the most explosive team in the conference. Stanford’s yards per play average is ninth in the Pac-12, as the Cardinal gains roughly five yards each play. Stanford is also ranked 105th in the nation in total offense. The lack of big play potential comes as a big relief for an Arizona defense that’s keen on giving up large chunks of yardage. On average the Wildcats give up 5.4 yards every single play, placing them eighth in the Pac-12. “They’re nasty up front,” linebacker Jake Fischer said. “But I think our guys are up for the challenge.”

Nunes not trying to fill Luck’s shoes at quarterback ZACK ROSENBLATT Before this season, the last time Stanford quarterback Josh Nunes attempted a pass in live-game action was almost two years ago. He entered a game against Cal with 5:18 left in the fourth quarter while the Cardinal led 48-7. He handed the ball off twice, then attempted his one and only pass of the game. It was incomplete. For 650 days Nunes had to live with that incompletion, and his only completed pass was 63 days before that, against Wake Forest. “I remember that, I had one completion,” Nunes said. “It was to my buddy [former Stanford receiver Sam Knapp]. It was a long time ago.” The last time Nunes even attempted more than one pass in a game was during high school in Upland, Calif. — 1,358 days ago. One completion, two attempts, seven yards. In those 1,358 days, Andrew Luck attempted 1,064 passes for Stanford, completing 713 of them for 9,430 yards. So when Nunes finally attempted his first pass as Stanford’s starting quarterback against San Jose State in week one, it was a long time coming McClatchy tribune STANFORD QUARTERBACK Josh Nunes has been for the senior. “It was great,” said Nunes of his first pass, a faced with the tall task of replacing Andrew Luck. He 9-yard completion. “It was nice to really just throw struggled against Washington.
and get it out of the way, and get a completion, get the jitters out and get ready to play the game.” Four weeks later, Nunes has attempted 125 passes in the Cardinal’s first year post-Luck. Replacing one of Stanford’s greatest quarterbacks, at a school that produced John Elway and Jim Plunkett, is a tall task. But, so far so good. Well, at least before last week’s game against Washington. “From what I’ve seen, he’s been very impressive,” Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez said. “He sat behind one of the best players in college football. “It’s not like he’s a true freshman out there. He’s been around the program a long time. He knows what they wanna get done.” Nunes had no choice but to watch as Luck shined for the Cardinal. The No. 1 overall pick of the Indianapolis Colts was Stanford’s alltime leader in total offense (with 10,387 yards), wins and winning percentage with a career record of 31-7, and he holds the Pac-12 records for career completion percentage at 67 percent and efficiency rating of 162.8. To say Nunes has big shoes to fill would be an understatement. “He’s done a great job,” said starting offensive lineman David Yankey. “We always emphasize that we’re not trying to replace [Luck], we’re just trying to come out and win every game. That’s our goal.” Sam Schwartzstein, Stanford’s starting
center, is more familiar with Nunes’ capabilities than most, as he snapped the ball to him on the scout team in practice every day for two seasons before becoming the starting center in 2011. He described Luck as a handson, in-your-face quarterback, which contrasts with Nunes’ tendency to let things happen naturally. “Josh is a poised QB that’s able to make the plays that he’s asked to,” Schwartzstein said. “Andrew was more stern, trying to make sure all details are correct. Josh is one of those guys that lets people do the right thing. Once people step out of line, he’ll get them back in line.” In four games, Nunes has completed 52 percent of his passes for 785 yards, six touchdowns and four interceptions. Against the Huskies, Nunes had his worst game of the season, going 18-of-37 with 171 yards and one interception in the No. 18-ranked Cardinal’s first loss. Still, Stanford head coach David Shaw is sticking with the senior quarterback. “He progressed in the first three weeks. He’s progressed every week,” Shaw said. “Whatever response people have [to the Washington game], I could care less. Josh has done a good job up to this point; he took a step backwards in that game. He did some really good things, but I expect him to bounce back and play better this week.”
