MITCHELL’S ELITE PLAY PUTS HIM AT TOP OF THE PAC-12 BY: Maverick Pallack @Mavpallack I PHOTO: Devin Roux
It was third-and-11 for Oregon, trailing by three in overtime against Washington. The ball was in quarterback Justin Herbert’s hands to make a play. Wide receiver Dillon Mitchell ran a hard-stop route passed the first-down marker and turned at the perfect time to receive Herbert’s pass, converting the first down and adding another six yards. The play set up the eventual game-winning touchdown and was one of the most important of Oregon’s season, and like so many others, Herbert and Mitchell were the two teaming up. “He’s a guy that I trust,” Herbert said. “He’s a guy that’s in the film room doing everything he can and is out on the field making plays. He shows up in practice, and it shows up in games as well.” In his third season at Oregon, Mitchell has not only taken the giant leap into being a No. 1 receiver, he has become one of the best receivers in the country by using workouts uncommon for football, specifically crossovers and basketball moves to keep his agility and quickness up, and plenty of time watching film. “I feel like I was always capable of doing what I was doing.” Mitchell said. “I have elevated my game. My game wasn’t like that completely last year. I’m just working to get better.” When times are tough, every quarterback needs their security blanket, but Mitchell is no checkdown target. He is making all types of plays all over the field. Mitchell’s 1,002 receiving yards account for 37 percent of Oregon’s receiving yards and he leads the team with eight receiving touchdowns. He also
led the team in receiving yards in seven of Oregon’s 10 games. The junior has reached the 100-yard mark five times, and is the lone Pac-12 player to surpass 1,000 yards this season thanks to his average of 129 yards per game in conference play. Mitchell is well beyond establishing himself as a go-to guy. Although defenses are keying on him, he is finding a way to get the ball when it matters most, with 47 of his 64 catches this season having resulted in a first down or a touchdown. “Fortunately Dillon’s always open,” Herbert said. “He does a great job of running routes and getting open. He makes my job a lot easier. We’d like to spread it around more, but Dillon just does a great job of getting open.” But things weren’t always easy for the receiver. Mitchell recalled a moment against Washington in 2016 when Mark Helfrich was still the head coach. Washington corner Kevin King, now a starting cornerback for the Green Bay Packers, was matched against the true freshman Mitchell — and the mismatch of experience was evident. “He definitely put me in my place and let me know that this is big-boy ball,” Mitchell said. “It was a reality check.” Since then, Mitchell has grown exponentially. He has gone to work over the last couple of offseasons to develop chemistry with Herbert, something that is easily visible when they are linking up on plays like the 67yard touchdown against UCLA. “I think we needed Dillon to step up,” Herbert said. “We needed him to step up and play some big-time ball, and he did. He’s done that all year and [he’s] a great guy to have on your side of the ball.”
Ducks wide receiver Dillon Mitchell (13) is the only Pac-12 player to surpass 1,000 receiving yards this season.

HERE’S HOW OREGON AND ARIZONA STATE
STACK UP
BY: Shawn Medow @ShawnMedow
Arizona State Offense The Sun Devils have the third-most total yards in the Pac-12. Led by quarterback Manny Wilkins, who has completed 65 percent of his passes, Arizona State can move the ball well. His favorite target is N’Keal Harry, who has 928 receiving yards for nine touchdowns. Harry is one of the top receivers in not just the Pac-12 but all of college football. The 6-foot-4 wideout is tough to stop for any team and carries the ASU offense. The run game is the best in the country with Eno Benjamin leading the way, rushing for 1,295 yards over the season.
Oregon Defense Arizona State’s efficient offense could cause problems for the Oregon secondary, especially against a tall receiver like Harry. Oregon’s defense struggled to contain Washington State and Arizona’s offenses. At home, Oregon was poor against Stanford receivers, who posted 327 receiving yards in the overtime win. Oregon’s run defense has surrendered plenty of yards at home this year. On the road against Utah, the Ducks run defense was weak again, as the Utes put up 232 rushing yards with their backup running back. For Oregon to beat Arizona State, it will have to slow down the Sun Devils’ run game.
Verdict Arizona State isn’t expected to throw the ball, but Oregon has the ability to stop the Sun Devils run game. Benjamin might light up the field and Harry might prove to be too good for the Oregon defensive backs.
Advantage: Arizona State

Oregon Offense Oregon’s offense has been in limbo over the course of the 2018 season. The only consistent receiving option is Dillon Mitchell, the run game has fluctuated and the team has stuttered out of the gates in multiple games. But at home, Oregon has been solid. The Ducks hold a 5-1 record at home and haven’t scored fewer than 30 points. With a home matchup against Arizona State, the Ducks’ offense could return to homeform. With fresh injuries to Oregon’s offensive line and running backs, the run game could fall flat against the Sun Devils, so Oregon’s passing game may need to carry the team. The Justin Herbert-Mitchell connection will be vital.
Arizona State Defense The Sun Devils’ defense ranks 57th in the nation, according to the NCAA. For comparison, the Ducks hold the 67th best defense in the country. Like the entire team, Arizona State’s defense has been inconsistent this year. The Sun Devils might have some trouble if Mitchell gets free on the offense for Oregon, but with the Ducks’ run game stagnant for most of Pac-12 play, Arizona State can emphasize passing defense. However, the Sun Devils might not be able to cope with Herbert, who has been lethal at home this season.
Verdict Oregon’s passing offense will be key to this matchup as the Ducks will need to rely heavily on Herbert and Mitchell. If that is successful, Oregon will score plenty of points.
Advantage: Oregon

FROM WALK-ON TO SENIOR LEADER BY: Maggie Vanoni @maggie_vanoni PHOTOS: Devin Roux
Apelu (39) will sit out the Arizona State game due to a lower-leg injury but is expected to play in a bowl game in December.
Mahina Apelu received a phone call from former Oregon head coach Willie Taggart on Thursday, Aug. 17, 2017. Her son, Kaulana Apelu, a junior walk-on inside linebacker at the time, was going to be awarded a scholarship. “I think I just about screamed the coach’s ear off over the phone,” Mahina said. Three days later, Taggart stopped a practice inside Autzen Stadium and turned the team’s attention to the jumbotron. Mahina appeared on the screen and announced the good news to her son. The surprise was a dream come true for Kaulana. “My son was telling me that that was his goal — to be a scholarship player,” Mahina said. “He didn’t want me to pay for him to go to school. But I said, ‘No. You belong there. Something good will happen.’ And it did.” Apelu, now a senior, became one of Oregon’s starting inside linebackers. Despite repetitive injuries throughout his football career, and officially being out for the rest of the season, he’s made it a mission to leave a positive legacy on the Oregon program and help those younger than him. “I just want to inspire others that don’t really think they can do whatever it is they want to do,” he said. “Just never giving up on your goal and your dream and just always pushing to never limit yourself.” From walk-on to starter Apelu’s football career started in fifth grade when his mom signed him up for a local Pop Warner youth league. He continued with the sport throughout middle school and high school; his talent at running back began to take shape. However, his dream of playing collegiate football took a hit during the first game of his junior season. Tearing his right ACL and meniscus, Apelu sat out the season to recover. But it wasn’t enough, as a year later, he repeated the injury

and missed his senior year. After graduating high school in 2015, Apelu moved 2,527 miles from Aiea, Hawaii, to Eugene to attend the University of Oregon. He was given a walk-on spot on the team’s roster, knowing not only that he would have to switch from running back to linebacker, but that he was also not guaranteed any playing time. Apelu seized the opportunity and earned a spot on Oregon’s special teams unit and participated in all 13 games that season. The following year, he earned Academic All-Pac-12 honorable mentions and totaled 29 tackles, including 21 solo stops. “One thing about Lana is that he plays with a lot of heart,” sophomore inside linebacker Sampson Niu said. “That’s what separates him from everybody else. He works really hard. … Obviously, Lana isn’t the biggest guy. But he’ll go out there and hit anybody, he’ll run around to the ball and just try to make plays.” Apelu’s junior year started off on a high note. He had accomplished his goal of becoming a scholarship collegiate athlete and started in three of the team’s first five games. But within a blink of an eye, his collegiate career began to echo his years in high school. A season-ending injury to his fibula took Apelu out of Oregon’s game against Cal on Sept. 30, 2017, two games into Pac-12 play. And as a senior this year, he was able to play nine games until a lowerleg fracture removed him from Oregon’s matchup against UCLA on Nov. 3. Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal does expect Apelu back to play in Oregon’s bowl game in December, though. “Man, that dude is the definition of a warrior,” junior inside linebacker Troy Dye said. “The dude comes back year after year since high school. For him to be able to just come back and still play his game, with all the injuries behind him and miles that’s on his body, it’s just crazy. You can just tell that he just loves this game. He’s a true warrior, he really fights hard.” No matter the injury or the

number of games sat out, Apelu’s impact on the team has never diminished. “Lana serves as a great mentor. He’s almost like an extra coach,” Cristobal said. “He’s one of the many guys that are the heart and soul of our football team. His presence is necessary.” An aloha-spirited leader Apelu currently attends practice with a boot on his lower left leg. He won’t play in this week’s final home game against Arizona State — which would have been his final game at Autzen. And during the game, when this year’s seniors are recognized, he’ll be honored for not just tackles, but for his constant leadership and drive to always help those younger than him. “Lana is just a tremendous leader,” Cristobal said. “A super high-energy guy, a student of the game. He pushes his teammates and challenges his teammates. He wants it as bad as you can ever imagine. Besides the ability, [he has] just a tremendous heart. Everything he invests in, he tries to make those around him better.” Being able to take a step back from playing has allowed Apelu to use his experience to help prepare the younger players in cases of setbacks.
“It’s always good to give my knowledge off to other people,” he said. “Like to the younger guys and kinda help them, especially if they get into the game. Everyone [has] got to be ready. It’s football, you know, anything can happen.” Apelu has gone out of his way to make sure his replacement at inside linebacker, Niu, is ready to carry the torch. “Lana played that big brother role, just showed me what I needed to know, made sure I was always on time for things, making sure I wasn’t messing up or anything and just making sure I was on track,” Niu said. “He’s made me more mature as a football player. He also made me take school a little bit more serious. He sees the importance of school and the importance of getting a degree.” The two meet multiple times a week outside of practice to go over film and learn plays. Apelu has made such an impression on Niu that Niu wants to continue on Apelu’s legacy with the incoming players. “Lana is going to leave a big legacy,” Niu said. “He’s always helping people. He helps me a lot, and not only me but other guys like Isaac [SladeMatautia] and some of the younger freshmen. … I’m going to teach the younger guys what Lana has kinda taught me, just make sure it just cycles and
keeps going down.” Apelu traces his helpful personality to the “Aloha spirit” he absorbed while growing up on the island. “Back in Hawaii, there is ‘Aloha spirit,’ [which is] just always wanting to be a hand to others and that’s something that is instilled in me,” Apelu said. “Just giving a pavement for younger guys is something I wish I had when I was younger, so I could make the most of my opportunities while I was here.” But his mom, Mahina, says that’s just Apelu being Apelu. “It’s just his attitude, his confidence, the way he carries himself and all that stuff just makes him, him,” she said. “He does it all the time. If a close friend needs help, it’s just his nature to be loving and caring and to help people with close friends, family and even our community.” No matter the reasoning behind why Apelu leads with a helping hand, Cristobal admires the senior for his dedication in supporting the team. “He’s an inspiration to everybody,” Cristobal said. “It’s safe to say that he fought through that injury as long as he could before he came out. He’s invaluable. I love him, I really do. He’s what you want your son to be.”

Ducks running back CJ Verdell (34) was added to the injured list following a neck injury during the game against Utah. Verdell is expected to play in the upcoming game against Arizona State.
CRISTOBAL: OREGON’S DEPTH CAN COMPENSATE FOR THE TEAM’S MANY INJURIES BY: Maggie Vanoni @maggie_vanoni | PHOTO: Devin Roux The Ducks left Utah on Saturday with five players exiting the game early due to injury. Cristobal addressed the media on Wednesday after practice and provided updates on the injured athletes while emphasizing the team’s preparation within its second and third string players. “We’re getting them to understand the importance of knowing your craft through and through,” Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal said. “Knowing that this is more than just answering a question in a meeting or stepping through on a walk-through. When we go practice and we go our live stuff, that they got to be able to react and then have that carry over into the game.” Both sophomore middle linebacker Sampson Niu and freshman left tackle Steven Jones exited Saturday’s game with concussions. On Monday, Cristobal said both entered the week in
concussion protocol. Niu was filling in on the starting lineup for senior middle linebacker Kaulana Apelu, who did not make the trip to Salt Lake City due to suffering a lower-leg fracture during Oregon’s game against UCLA. Freshman inside linebacker Adrian Jackson hurt his shoulder after falling awkwardly on it during a blocked punt in the fourth quarter on Saturday. He sat out Monday’s practice but returned on Tuesday and has been full-go ever since. Adding to the injured list are running backs CJ Verdell and Cyrus Habibi-Likio. Verdell left during the second half of the game with a neck injury, while Habibi-Likio suffered a severe leg contusion and stayed overnight in Utah to prevent the risk of a blot clot. Habibi-Likio returned to Eugene earlier in the week and participated in practices. While
both were limited, Verdell and Niu returned to practice on Wednesday. Cristobal said Jones’ status for Saturday’s game against Arizona State was doubtful as they would re-evaluate his condition Wednesday afternoon. On the flip side, the injuries have allowed more of the younger players to gain reps and experience in practice. “You see a lot of guys that are going to be really good football players,” Cristobal said. As an example, he used Cam McCormick’s injury absence to highlight the depth of guys stepping up. “In the tight end position we are fortunate and unfortunate,” he said. “We lost Cam, our most physical blocker, but we have a really good group of guys that are Jake Breeland, Ryan Bay and Kano [Dillon] and [Hunter] Kampmoyer.”

PLAYERS TO WATCH BY: Jack Butler @Butler917
ARIZONA STATE Quarterback: Manny Wilkins
Linebacker: Merlin Robertson
Obviously, quarterbacks are always important. Wilkins is a dominant passer, but he is a good runner. Oregon fell victim to two rushing touchdowns against Utah’s Jason Shelley. They were on the goal line, where the quarterback run is the most dangerous. Arizona State does the same with Wilkins. He has six rushing touchdowns this year, which is second on the team and tied for eighth in the Pac-12. His passing is efficient but not what carries the Sun Devil offense. He is second in the conference in efficiency rating, but he’s only fifth in the Pac-12 in yards per game.
The freshman linebacker is Arizona State’s leader in tackles for loss and sacks. He’s been one of the surprise players in the conference this season, and he’ll be important in stopping Oregon’s rushing attack. The Ducks’ running game has struggled recently, but the offense is much better at home than it is on the road. Robertson played middle linebacker in high school, so this is his first season as an outside linebacker. He is already a talented pass rusher and he’ll be moved around to face Oregon’s injured O-line. If he can stop the run, Oregon will have only struggled on its passing game this season.
OREGON Wide Receiver: Cornerback: Brenden Schooler Thomas Graham Jr. Oregon needs another receiver to step up besides Dillon Mitchell. He has more than double the receptions of any other Duck receiver. He is at 64 while Jaylon Redd is at 23. Brenden Schooler is Oregon’s other outside receiver, and he’s going against an average Arizona State passing defense. While he had only two receptions in the first three Pac-12 games, Schooler has been more present over the last four, catching 14 passes. But, the yards aren’t there. He’s only at 9.95 yards per catch, which is sixth on the team with players over 10 receptions. Oregon doesn’t need someone to get empty catches, but they need someone to make plays. The Ducks need someone to get yards after catch and make plays with the ball in their hands. Schooler has never done that, but the Ducks need someone to break loose.
Oregon’s secondary is young. Senior safety Ugochukwu Amadi is the only upperclassman with serious playing time. Sophomore cornerback Thomas Graham Jr. is one of the underclassmen who Oregon relies on. They’ll need him to be in top form against talented Arizona State wide receiver N’Keal Harry, who is one of the best wide receivers in the conference. He is second in the conference in yards per game and touchdowns. At 6 foot 4, 216 pounds, he is one of the most physical receivers in the Pac-12, and Oregon struggled with big, physical receivers against Stanford. Arizona State’s passing attack is not its strength, but Oregon’s passing defense is ninth in the conference. Graham Jr., or whoever is guarding him, needs to limit Arizona State’s top receiver if they are going to limit time on the field.
