PULLMAN, Wash. (AP) — Josh Kelly had three touchdown receptions, Cameron Ward passed for 404 yards and accounted for five scores, and No. 21 Washington State withstood a late rally to upend No. 14 Oregon State 38-35 in the Pac-12 Conference opener for both teams. The Cougars pulled out their second AP Top 25 victory of the season in a game billed as the Pac-2 Championship. They led by 17 points early in the fourth quarter before the Beavers mounted a furious rally. Ward, who entered third in the nation in passing yards and fourth in total offense, threw three of his four touchdown passes in the first half. He also had a 1-yard TD run.
