No. 20 Stanford comes back for 15-14 win over Oregon State<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

No. 20 Stanford comes back for 15-14 win over Oregon State:- Keller Chryst threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to JJ Arcega-Whiteside with 20 seconds left and No. 20 Stanford survived Bryce Love’s absence for a 15-14 come-from-behind victory over Oregon State on Thursday night.<\/span><\/p>\n

Love, the nation’s leader with an average of 198.1 yards rushing per game, tweaked an ankle against Oregon on Oct. 14. The Cardinal (6-2, 5-1 Pac-12) announced that Love would sit out about 90 minutes before the start of the game in Corvallis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stanford went for it on fourth-and-10 on the Oregon State 40 with 2:19 left in the game and Chryst hit Kaden Smith with a 25-yard pass to keep the drive alive. After Chryst found Arcega-Whiteside in the end zone, the 2-point conversion failed but Stanford intercepted Oregon State quarterback Darell Garretson’s hurl with 3 seconds left to end it.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Beavers (1-7, 0-5) were playing the second game since the school parted ways with head coach Gary Andersen. Interim coach Cory Hall was the cornerbacks coach.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the defenses dominated the first quarter, Stanford opened the scoring with Jet Toner’s 40-yard field goal. On Oregon State’s ensuing drive, Garretson’s keeper put the Beavers up 7-3.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stanford recovered Garretson’s fumble at the Oregon State 16 but wasn’t able to get closer and settled for a Toner’s 33-yard field goal to head into halftime down 7-6.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stanford was flagged for roughing Garretson on the Beavers’ first series of the second half. On the same play, Cardinal cornerback Alijah Holder left the game with an apparent knee injury and inside linebacker Joey Alfieri was ejected from the game for targeting.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Beavers went on to cap the drive with Thomas Tyner’s touchdown run to go up 14-6.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mistakes continued for Stanford on the next possession when Oregon State’s Omar Hicks-Onu intercepted Chryst’s pass. But the Beavers missed a 52-yard field goal attempt that would have extended their lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

Toner kicked a 40-yard field goal to narrow the score to 14-9 at the end of the third quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n

A midseason AP All-American, Love has run for 1,387 total yards this season and is averaging 10.27 yards per carry \u2014 both also national bests. He ran for 147 yards and two touchdowns in Stanford’s 49-7 victory at home over the Ducks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cardinal are facing a challenging stretch, on the road at No. 15 Washington State next week, followed by No. 12 Washington at home.<\/span><\/p>\n

The leading rusher for Stanford in Love’s place was Cameron Scarlett, who grew up in Portland, Oregon, and went to Central Catholic High School \u2014 the same school as Oregon State running back Ryan Nall. Scarlett finished with 72 yards rushing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chryst completed 16 of 33 passes for 141 yards with the final touchdown and the interception, but Stanford managed just 222 yards of total offense.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Beavers have played with spirit in the two games since the departure of Andersen. Oregon State challenged Colorado but ultimately fell 36-33 on Oct. 14, five days after the school parted ways with Andersen.<\/span><\/p>\n
