By Hunter Hendrickson 2007. That was the last time USC has beat Oregon State at Gill Colisium in Corvallis Oregon. The same year we had 0 Pac-10 wins. The President was George W Bush, gas was about 2.80 a gallon, and the #1 hit song was, "Hey there Delilah." by the Plain white T's. Now, In 2011, The President is Barack Obama, gas is still 2.80$ and The #1 song is Only Girl, by Rihanna. Anyways, Oregon state trying to keep there Pac-10 hopes alive vs. the USC Trojans. They were able to do that 80-76. Heres what happened.....
A HUGE reason why Oregon state (8-9,3-3 in Pac-10) won this was because Jared Cunningham Efforts, he had 24 points and some clutch baskets in the Last Mintues to earn MVP on the game.
For the Trojans, (10-8, 2-3 in Pac-10), Nikola Vucevic had 26 points and 14 rebounds for a Double-Double. Jio Fontan had 14 points and 6 assist.
Besides Jared Cunningham, The Beavers had 3 other men in Double figures, The 2 seinors, Lathen Wallace had 12 points and Calvin Haynes had 11. Omari Johnson had a Double Double with 12 points and 11 rebounds.
The Beavers had a 16 point lead at half but blew it and Joe Burton had a Perfect Back door-No look pass to Cunningham for a Lay in. Seconds Later, Calvin Haynes stole the ball and layed it in for a 71-62 lead. The Beavers never trailed again. I was at the game, and When Calvin Haynes stole the ball away for a Lay in, it was at least louder than Autzen Stadium.
So, Oregon state goes to 8-9 and a even 3-3 in the Pac-10. Next, The Beavs will play at home vs. the Oregon Ducks. The Civil war!
