Oregon had the ball last and was forced to go for a first down on fourth-and-8, but Anthony Brown’s pass fell incomplete to end the game. Oregon also lost one of its top running backs this season, CJ Verdell, to a third-quarter foot injury. Stanford (3-2, 2-1) stopped Oregon on downs near the goal line just before halftime to take a 17-7 lead into the break, and seemingly had all the momentum. Stanford got the ball with 1:59 left to play at its own 13-yard line with a chance to tie. In overtime, McKee found Humphreys and Stanford held to get the win.
