Oregon State Individual Notes
· Brandin Cooks' four-yard reception in the first quarter was his 92nd of the season, setting a new Oregon State record. He bested James Rodgers' 91 in 2009 and Markus Wheaton's 91 last year.
· Cooks ended the game with nine catches for 99 yards. He now has 100 receptions this season, becoming just the fifth Pac-12 player to reach that number. His 1,443 receiving yards trail only Mike Hass (1,532; 2005) in the OSU record books. That number is also eighth all-time in conference history. Next up is Washington's Reggie Williams, who had 1,454 in 2002.
· With 320 yards passing, Sean Mannion has 3,860 this season and trails only Derek Anderson's 4,058 from 2003 in OSU history. That's also the eighth-best mark in the Pac-12. ASU's Andrew Walter is in seventh place with 3,877 (2002).
· Mannion also has 9,634 career passing yards, which place 13th in conference history, just past Andrew Luck's 9,430 and behind OSU's own Jonathan Smith (9,680). On Saturday night Mannion also passed John Elway and the Beavers' Erik Wilhelm.
· Mannion's two passing touchdowns give him 33 on the year, tied for eighth in Pac-12 history.
· Connor Hamlett had career-highs in both receptions and yards, catching nine balls for 119 yards.
· Scott Crichton's two sacks give him a team-leading 6.5 this season. With 21.5 in his career, he is now third all-time in Oregon State history, trailing only Bill Swancutt (37.0) and Victor Butler (25.5).
· Rashaad Reynolds' first-quarter interception was his fifth of the season and the ninth of his career.
· Jabral Johnson's first-quarter interception was the first of his career.
· Tyler Anderson's 15-yard reception to end the first quarter was the longest of his career.
· Mana Rosa's blocked PAT was his second of the season.
