Team Notes
Oregon State reached the 100-point plateau for the first time since it defeated UC San Diego, 116-78, on Nov. 25, 1997.
This is the fourth consecutive game the Beavers have scored 80 or more points; the first time the program has done that since Jan. 25 to Feb. 3, 1990 when they scored that many against USC (92), UCLA (80), California (98) and Stanford (84).
Oregon State's last win in overtime came against Stanford on March 25, 2009. The Beavers defeated Stanford, 65-62, to advance to the CBI Finals.
Oregon State utilized the same starting lineup for the fourth consecutive game, with Ahmad Starks and Jared Cunningham at guard, Joe Burton and Devon Collier at forward and Angus Brandt at center.
The Beavers took the early lead, 3-0, and have opened the game with the lead in three of their four games this season.
