It was the last of Herbert’s four TD tosses. “We talk about the harder it gets the better we play and that showed up in the second half,” Oregon coach Mario Cristobal said. Herbert fi nished 24 of 38 for 280 yards. He threw TDs of 12 yards to Spencer Webb and 16 yards to Redd in the fi rst half. The victory gave Oregon (6- 1, 4-0 Pac-12) complete control in the North Division. Four of the fi ve other teams already have three conference losses, with Oregon State at 2-2 the closest to the Ducks. Washington (5-3, 2-3) reached the Oregon 38 with 2 ½ minutes left, but Eason was sacked on second and 6 by Popo Aumavae and lost 12 yards. It was the fi rst sack of the game by either team. nips California The Huskies faced third and 23 after a false start but got 20 yards back on a pass to Marcus Spiker. On fourth and 3, Eason’s pass for Nacua was high and the Ducks cel- ebrated a second straight win over their rivals. Washington argued there should have been pass interference on the throw to Nacua. “What did it look like to you guys? You guys got a better vantage than me. I think we know,” Washington coach Chris Petersen said. Whether it was interference on not, Washington helped give away the game with its stagnant fourth-quarter on offense. After exposing Oregon’s defense in ways it hadn’t during its fi ve-game win streak since dropping its season opener to Auburn, the Huskies had just 52 yards of offense and two fi rst downs in the fourth quarter.

It was the season-high ninth sack by Smith’s defense and helped erase any lingering memories the Beavers had after suf- fering a 45-point loss one week earlier. “Overall for our defense to be able to fi nish it that way was huge,” Smith said after Oregon State’s 21-17 win over California on Sat- urday. “We talked about putting the previous game to rest and I thought our guys did it. Had a great week of work, energy and attention to detail, and it played out today.” B.J.

No one had their head down. No one felt very comfortable in the situation. We all re- ally truly believed that we were going to come out on top.” The Cougars were able to run out the clock after Austin Kafentzis picked up a yard on 4th-and-inches from the BYU 34 with 2:17 left.

Rashed had three sacks and four tackles for losses, tied for third-most in school history. Riley Sharp also had three sacks. “It’s the most fun I’ve ever had,” Sharp said. “Be- cause our run defense was really, really good today, in some situations they were forced to pass which allowed us to run some play calls that allowed multiple blitzers coming off the edge and different schemes to help us get to the quarterback.” The defense helped offset a sporadic day from the Beavers offense. Oregon State’s offense was shut down in the second half until driving 80 yards for the game-win- ning score. The Beavers converted three third downs on its way to the end zone, the third coming when Baylor bulled his way through the defense and stretched across the goal line to score. Baylor was initially ruled down short of the end zone until a side of- fi cial came in and signaled touchdown. The play was reviewed and confi rmed.
