"It was great to be back," said Oregon State head coach Scott Rueck. "We knew that Arizona would be tough, physical and ready for a war. I was really proud of our effort tonight ā I loved the way we competed. We had a lot of people playing in their first Pac-12 game tonight, and they played really well and really gritty. In my opinion, this was a good sign of things to come for this group. I thought this was a great game."
