Friday links

Lots of good reading out there on the day before the Ducks play the Huskies.

Here’s my friday column looking at why the Huskies really need a win this week.

The Eugene Register-Guard has a story on Jake Locker, as does the Oregonian.

Sunday Morning Quarterback, which is a good college football blog, takes a look at the Pac-10.

Also the Register-Guard is reporting that receiver Derrick Jones has been suspended indefinitely for an unspecified vilation of team rules. The Ducks were already thin at the receiver position because of injuries to Cameron Colvin and Brian Paysinger.

Finally, as I’ve been saying all week, check out Duck Sports News for more links.
