[ music ] >> good evening, everyone. thanks for joining our saturday need edition of sports wrap. last year andrew luck last year threw a costly interception that allowed them to keep the ax and the bay area bragging rights. today luck and the cardinal turned the big game into a big

blow-out. they kept it including last year when they won at stanford. things head up in berkeley even before the kickoff. they start chirping and he gets punched and patterson gets ejected before the game even starts. but that was the only mistake stanford made today. cal quarterback brock mansion never got on track. mansion lost a fumble and intercepted twice in the first half. richard sherman makes his pick for stanford. mansion got an earful from the coach. look at andrew luck for stanford number 12. well, he decides it is time to mowsy on down the field and the quarterback from cal number 11 bounces off luck like a flea. a 50-yard play for luck that sets up the first td of the game. luck accounts for 72 of stanford's 232 yards rushing today. sophomore running-back taylor ran for three short tds including this one to put the cardinals ahead 10-0. luck

completes 16-20 passes for two tds. and the tightened makes it 24- 0. former card equal john elway is impressed. meanwhile brock mansion kept trying to force the issue. this time he throws off balance again. time michael thomas accepts the gift. too easy for stanford. cardinal scores points in all eight possessions led by andrew luck. baldwin's 19-yard td. it was 31-0 at half time. cal did score two tds to prevent a big record blow-out. but freshman wide receiver allan from the elusive running- back throws to score. stanford wins this thing 48-14. the most points cardinals have scored in a big game history. they own the ax for the second time in just nine years. and stanford earns it's most lopsided victory over cal in 80 years. bears must beat washington next year to become bowl eligible.

while the 10-11 cardinals did everything right today. the coach said that pre-game barking wasn't their idea. >> it wasn't from our guys. you know, our guys were, you know, really played smart. they played discipline the entire game. they kept their mouths shut. we don't like that kind of football. i am not in favor of that. i think, you know, you play with, you know, your ability. you play with your heart. you play in the field. >> i tried to get a little extra motivation from the performance. it was a new year and didn't try to think about it too much. >> didn't make mistakes and guys made place and stepped up and it worked. >> he probably doesn't like me saying this because he is the greatest i have ever seen in college football. i mean, i feel sorry for the defense who goes against him. he is amazing. >> the defense didn't play to the level of the offense last year. kind of let them down. so this whole team was charged and ready. all counting on one another. so when 11 guys stick together that's football. >> so stanford takes back the

ax on the same field where exactly 28 years ago today they lost a big game thanks to cal's fantastic finish and the play. the fan was not on the field. oregon state beavers manhandled 20th rank southern california. the quarterback left the game with a sprained ankle but first found time to throw this interception to the beaver's quarterback who heads the other way for 65-yard td. beavers win to climb 5-5. unc falls to 7-4. lost three straight games there. all four of the division one unbeatens were idle today. that's or begun, auburn, boise state and tcu. the highest ranked team in the field today was number 5lsu. tigers hosted mississippi quarterback and the bay area product led the rebels in the third quarter. over to summers who outruns the defenders 65 yards.

ole misled 36-35. but they score 20 in the third quarter. but they don't get burned. 43-36. they are 10-1. 6th ranked wisconsin played without their running-back clay. no problem because michigan couldn't stop anybody. badgers ran for 365 on the yard against the wolverines. james white runs this one back. badgers meet michigan 38-28. they are 10-1. the only team to beat them was michigan state. and the 11th ranked game off the buy week looking rather rusty while visiting perdue boil makers. and they punt inside the five yard line. perdue was leading by three with just five minutes left in the game at this point. msu takes advantage of that special teams effort. cousins takes it in. he fumbles but spartans recover so it is counted. michigan state beats the
