Andrew Andrews connected on a straightaway jumper with one second remaining, lifting the Washington Huskies past short-handed Colorado 52-50 on Thursday night at Boulder, Colorado, for their third win in a row.

Nigel Williams-Goss had 16 points to lead Washington (14-4, 3-3 Pac-12), which won at Colorado for the first time in its last five games here.

Andrews finished with 12 points on 3-of-12 shooting from the floor, connecting on his last and most important attempt.

“Y’all can pick which ever one you want: gutsy, gritty, resilient, that’s what our team was tonight,” Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said. “Andrew Andrews hit a huge shot to win the game. He made two big plays for us at the end.”

Colorado (9-9, 2-4) was without two of its best players. Josh Scott remained sidelined with a back injury and Xavier Johnson sat out to serve a one-game suspension for violating a team rule.

Jaron Hopkins had 11 points. Wesley Gordon added 10 points for Colorado, which lost its fourth in a row.

Trailing by five at the half, the Huskies put together a 10-2 run that Kemp finished with a layup to go in front 48-42 with 7:24 remaining.

(7) Arizona 89, Stanford 82: Stanley Johnson had 19 points and seven rebounds and the Wildcats handed the Cardinal their first home loss of the season with a win in Stanford, California.

Oregon State 66, UCLA 55: Gary Payton II had 18 points and five steals as the Beavers held off a furious Bruins second-half rally to win in Corvallis, Oregon. The Beavers are 11-0 at home this season

Arizona State 79, California 44: Bo Barnes matched his career high with 17 points off the bench, Kodi Justice had 16 and the Sun Devils pulled away with a big run in the first half to beat the Golden Bears in Berkeley, California.

Oregon 75, USC 67: Joseph Young scored 19 points and Elgin Cook added 15 to lead the Ducks over the Trojans in Eugene.
