Pac 12 roundup: UCLA edges Arizona State
Derrick Coleman scored the go-ahead touchdown for UCLA on a 1-yard run with 49 seconds to play, and Alex Garoutte missed a 46-yard field-goal attempt as time expired in the Bruins’ 29-28 victory over No. 20 Arizona State on Saturday night at Pasadena, Calif.
Coleman’s dive capped a perilous 79-yard drive featuring a fumble by Coleman, an offensive pass-interference penalty and a third-and-29 conversion by the Bruins (5-4, 4-2 Pac-12), who improbably moved into first place in the Pac-12 South for the first time since early last season.
Brock Osweiler passed for 264 yards and moved the Sun Devils (6-3, 4-2) 47 yards in 38 seconds to set up Garoutte’s final attempt, but the freshman pushed it wide right – his second miss of the half.
Stanford 38, Oregon State 13: Andrew Luck shook off the rain and the chill to throw for 206 yards and three touchdowns as the No. 4 Cardinals (9-0, 7-0) defeated the Beavers (2-7, 2-4) at Corvallis, Ore.
The win was costly for the Cardinal, who lost receiver Chris Owusu to a concussion in the second quarter after a helmet-to-helmet collision with cornerback Jordan Poyer. Owusu was taken from the field by ambulance.
Stanford extended the nation’s longest winning streak to 17 games. The Cardinal have not opened 9-0 since 1952.
Utah 34, Arizona 21: John Hays threw for 199 yards and a pair of touchdowns, and the Utes (5-4, 2-4) hounded quarterback Nick Foles into a pair of big mistakes en route to a win over the Wildcats (2-7, 1-6) at Tucson, Ariz.
Utah had a solid defensive game, hitting Foles early and often to set up two interceptions.
Hays connected on 12 of 21 passes. Utah moved within a game of becoming bowl eligible for the ninth straight season.
