Oregon Beavers Made The Most Of 2OT to Beat Colorado Rams – Game Highlights

Despite a rough start to Saturday night’s match between Oregon State University and Colorado State University, the Beavers made the most of 2 overtimes to win with a convincing 39-31. Hankerson’s 2OT score on a 25-yard TD run made the difference.

OSU vs CSU College Football Game Highlights

OSU won the toss and elected to defer to the second half. In the Beavers’ opening drive, two penalties ensued after McCoy hit Jermaine Terry II in the hands with a short pass over the middle, and Gabe Kirschke ultimately corralled it for a pick.

But in a game with double overtime, there were many plays that made the fans happy:

• Anthony Hankerson began the OSU fifth drive with a 20-yard run to midfield, but McCoy found Trent Walker over the middle for a 16-yard completion bringing up a two-minute timeout before halftime. With 7 seconds left in the first overtime, Hankerson scored a touchdown, right up the gut. It put OSU in the lead at 14-10 with three seconds left in the first half.
• In 2OT, Hankerson scored a 25-yard touchdown run earning him a career-high of 113 yards and two scores.
• The Beavers stopped the Rams twice on fourth-and-goal and in the game’s final possession, the Rams fourth-and-goal from the 10. The ball was thrown out the end zone by Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi but a pass interference call gave the Rams a new set of downs from the 2. The Beavers also stopped the Rams three times after that and a penalty helped make it fourth-and-goal from the 11.
• Quarterback Gevani McCoy ran 91 yards with 3 TDs for OSU, finishing 16-of-28 passing and one interception.
