Oregon State Beavers Dominate Stanford Cardinal at Reser Stadium in Football Showdown
The Oregon State Beavers, with an 8-2 record, delivered a commanding performance against the Stanford Cardinal, who now stand at 3-7. The final score was a resounding 62-17 in favor of the home team.
At Reser Stadium, the Oregon State Beavers showcased their offensive might by amassing a total of 598 yards. The ground game was particularly effective as they rushed for 277 yards, including a standout longest run that covered 59 yards and resulted in one of their six rushing touchdowns. The passing game also contributed significantly with three touchdowns and an impressive completion percentage of about 64 percent for a total of 321 passing yards.
Defensively, the Beavers were just as dominant. They sacked Stanford's quarterback six times for a loss of 38 yards and recorded seven tackles for loss. Their relentless pressure led to four interceptions with return yardage totaling to nearly forty yards. This defensive effort played a crucial role in keeping the Cardinal's scoring opportunities limited throughout the game.
Special teams had moments worth noting too; although no punts were blocked or returned for touchdowns, there was consistency in execution with an average punt yardage rounding to forty and one punt landing inside the twenty-yard line.
The efficiency on critical downs was evident as well; Oregon State converted all their red zone attempts into scores and maintained perfect records on both third-down conversions at about twenty-nine percent success rate and fourth-down conversions.
