PrintPenn State 45 Oregon State 14
What was supposed to be Penn State's toughest nonconference game of the year turned into a laugher early. Oregon State fell to 0-2 for the first time since 2004. Evan Royster rushed for 141 yards and three touchdowns. Daryll Clark threw two TD passes and the Nittany Lions defense didn't miss a beat when it counted. Oregon State is definitely in rebuilding mode. Joe Paterno will he'll be the winningest coach coach ever with 374 for a few hours till Florida State plays Coastal Carolina.
California 66 Washington State 3
Jahvid Best ran for 200 yards and three touchdowns Saturday as California blasted Washington State 66-3, spoiling coach Paul Wulff's first game back in Pullman since he was a star player in the late 1980s. This was the worst loss at home in WSu history. Nice to get it out of the way early Paul.
Oregon 66 Utha State 24
Starter Justin Roper returned from a concussion and helped the Ducks to a school-record 688 yards in a 66-24 rout of the Aggies on Saturday. LaGarette Blount ran for 132 yards and two touchdowns for the Ducks (2-0), taking on the bulk of the rushing duties after Jeremiah Johnson left with a shoulder injury on the Ducks' first series of the game.
Arizona 41 Toledo 16
Arizona's high powered offense didn't score 70 points this week but they had no trouble taking care of Toledo. The Wildcats are 2-0 on the season. Willie Tuitama completed 25 of 33 for 292 yards and two second-half touchdowns.Mike Thomas caught nine for 138 yards and one score. Nic Grisby rushed for three first-half touchdowns.
Arizona State 41 Stanford 17
Rudy Carpenter was 27-36 for 345 yards and threw for 3 TD's. The Sun Devils had little problem holding off the Tree in their Pac Ten opener.

Riley
Judge Riley on how he finished not how he starts. Also judge him on his entire body of work, not the first two games with a rebuilding team. His teams get better as they year goes on and that is the sign of a good coach.
Riley
Sorry John, I’ll have to judge him on the ENTIRE season. Every time I think about Riley I get flashbacks of Willingham. Another average coach that will lead to SOME good seasons. Which at Washington, is totally unexceptable!
During normal times (Not rebuilding Neuweasels mess) Washington in a down year should be 8-4 or at worst 7-5, anything less is unexceptable.
