No. 23 Utah 41-UCLA 10The Bruins (2-6, 2-3 PAC-12) had their win streak snapped as they were routed by the Utes (6-2, 4-2) on Friday.
Zack Moss ran for a career best 211 yards on 26 carries with three touchdowns. The Utah defense made it a rough night for Wilton Speight who was just 20-of-40 for 164 yards and two interceptions.
Joshua Kelley was the lone bright spot for UCLA as he had 90 yards and the only touchdown.
The Utes will head to Arizona State (4-4,2-3) next while Chip Kelly and the Bruins visit his old stomping grounds at Oregon (5-3, 2-3).
It looked like it was going to be a game where whoever had the ball last would win and that's almost what happened when Washington State (7-1, 4-1 PAC-12) kicked a game winner to stun the crowd at Stanford (5-3, 3-2).
The Cardinal jumped out to a 28-17 lead at the half thanks to three K.J. Costello touchdown passes. James Williams cut into that lead with his second rushing touchdown of the game. Jet Toner pushed the Stanford lead to 31-24 heading into the fourth quarter.
Gardner Minshew's second touchdown pass tied the game and his third of the day gave the Cougars a 38-31 advantage with 4:28 remaining. Stanford responded with the second TD connection between Costello and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside with 1:25 to play. That was too much left for the high flying Washington State offense as they got close enough to get a Blake Mazza 42-yard field goal with only 19 ticks left on the clock.The Cardinal would get the ball back, but stall out well short of field goal range.
The Cougars are in the drivers seat in the PAC-12 and will host Cal (5-3, 2-3) next while Stanford heads to Washington (6-3, 4-2).
The Huskies (6-3, 4-2 PAC-12) had no offense while the Cal (5-3, 2-3) defense was their best offense in a defensive struggle in Berkeley.
Washington took a 7-0 lead when Ty Jones hauled in a touchdown pass froim Jake Browning. Greg Thomas added two field goals to make it a 7-6 game at the half. It stayed that way until the final seconds of the third quarter when Browning was picked off by Evan Weaver, who returned it for a 37-yard score. The Bears attempted a two-point conversion and missed to make it a 12-7 lead.
The Huskies settled for a field goal in the red zone with 4:51 remaining, but Cal played keep away to secure the upset.
Cal heads to Washington State (7-1, 4-1) while Washington hosts Stanford (5-3, 3-2).
The Ducks (5-3, 2-3 PAC-12) were not ready for the return of Khalil Tate as he led a drubbing of Oregon to give the Wildcats (4-5, 3-3) the win on Saturday.
Tate threw three touchdowns after being injured during the Utah game back on Oct. 12. He got a ton of help from J.J. Taylor who gashed the Ducks for 212 yards and two touchdowns on 30 carries.
Justin Herbert was was just 24-of-48 for 186 yards and threw two touchdowns, but also threw an interception.
Arizona will host Colorado (5-3, 2-3) on Friday while Oregon welcomes former head coach Chip Kelly and the UCLA Bruins (2-6, 2-3) on Saturday.
The Beavers (2-6, 1-4 PAC-12) racked up 24 points in the fourth quarter to send the game into overtime where they stunned the Buffaloes (5-3, 2-3) at home.
Steven Montez found K.D. Nixon for two touchdowns as Nixon was on his way to a 198 yard day. Travon McMillian had 132 yards and a score on 20 carries as it looked like Colorado was going to cruise to a victory up 31-3.
Jake Louton led the comeback starting in the third with his first touchdown pass of the game, then Jack Colletto used his legs to score near the beginning of the fourth. Jordan Choukair tacked on a field goal and Louton and Isaiah Hodgins connected for the second time today while also adding a two-point conversion.
The Buffs added a field goal with 2:05 to play and went up by six, but Louton threw his third touchdown pass of the game with only 29 seconds left. All the Beavers needed was the extra point, but Choukair had his PAT blocked and the Davis Price missed on a 53-yard field goal to win it for Colorado to send the game to overtime.
In the OT, Colletto picked up his second rushing score for Oregon State, while the defense held Montez and Colorado at the seven yard line to win for the first time in six games.
The Beavers go for back-to-back wins for the first time since the end of the 2016 season. They'll have to do so when they host USC (4-4, 3-3). The Buffaloes look to snap their three game skid when they head to Arizona (4-5, 3-3) on Friday.
The Sun Devils (4-4, 2-3 PAC-12) and Trojans (4-4, 3-3) traded touchdowns late, but Arizona State held on to knock off USC in L.A.
ASU built a 24-14 lead thanks in part to two Eno Benjamin touchdown runs and he would finish the day with 185 yards. USC was sparked in the first half with a Tyler Vaughns 82-yard punt return.
The Trojans took the lead in the second half when Velus Jones Jr. scored on an 8-yard run and a fumble set up a trick play where Vaughns found Michael Pittman Jr. for a 36-yard touchdown. The Sun Devils took the lead back late in the third when N'Keal Harry returned a 92-yard punt for a touchdown of his own.
It remained that way until Manny Wilkins scrambled for a 45-yard touchdown with 1:23 to play. Jack Sears, in for the injured J.T. Daniels, tossed a 48-yard touchdown pass to Vaughns with 35 seconds left, but ASU recovered the onside kick to secure the win.
The Sun Devils will host Utah (6-2, 4-2) next while USC heads to Oregon State (2-6, 1-4).
