Steven Jackson finished the contest with 105 yards and one score on 26 carries for Oregon State (4-1, 1-0 PAC-10), while Dwight Wright Jr. contributed with 58 yards on 10 rushing attempts.

Although Andrew Walter threw two touchdowns, he had a subpar game, connecting on just 17-of-42 pass attempts for 231 and three interceptions in the Sun Devils' loss.

Then, James Newsome was on the receiving end of a 28-yard touchdown pass from Anderson, extending the Oregon State advantage to 21-7.

Kirk Yliniemi split the uprights on a 29-yard field goal as time expired in the first half, giving Oregon State a commanding 24-7 lead going into the break.

Jesse Ainsworth nailed a 34-yard field goal with under two minutes remaining in the third quarter, cutting the Sun Devils' deficit to 24-10.

Oregon State dominated the fourth quarter, scoring three touchdowns to solidify its victory. Jackson scored on a 15-yard run with 11:09 left in the final period and Keller Christensen recovered a Sun Devil fumble in the end zone, pushing the Beavers' lead to 38-10.
