Overview
- Anthony Hankerson rushed for 132 yards and scored the go-ahead 1-yard touchdown with 9:52 remaining.
- Oregon State’s defense delivered a second-half shutout, and Washington State missed a 32-yard field goal with 1:05 left.
- Gabarri Johnson started at quarterback for Oregon State before exiting with a foot or lower-leg injury, and Maalik Murphy finished the game and led the decisive drive.
- This meeting counted as a nonconference game because the schools scheduled each other twice after Pac-12 realignment and the end of last year’s Mountain West agreement.
- Oregon State improved to 2-7 under interim coach Robb Akey, Washington State fell to 4-5 under first-year coach Jimmy Rogers, and the Cougars still need two wins in their final three games to reach bowl eligibility.
