Jeff Tuel

Player of the game

Washington State quarterback Jeff Tuel passed for 157 yards and rushed for 79.

Play of the game

Tuel hit Marquess Wilson for a 33-yard touchdown pass that gave Washington State a 21-0 lead in the third quarter.

Key stat

Tuel completed 10 of 15 passes, connecting with receiver Daniel Blackledge four times for 76 yards. James Montgomery added 67 yards rushing and a touchdown for the Cougars.

He said it

"We couldn't keep him (Tuel) in the pocket and sack him. He's a Jake Locker-type. They wear the same number. They look the same to me." — Oregon State defensive tackle Stephen Paea

Tough road

The Beavers (4-5, 3-3) lost for the third time in the past four games — and the first time in seven games at Reser Stadium — and are in jeopardy of missing the bowl season for the first time in five years. Oregon State still has USC, No. 6 Stanford and top-ranked Oregon left on the schedule.

By the numbers

16 Conference losing streak snapped by the Cougars.

2007 Last time Washington State held a team scoreless in the first half (Cougars led Stanford 10-0). The Beavers had not been shut out in the first half all season.

4-31 WSU's record under coach Paul Wulff going into the game.
