Against Nevada

- Oregon State and Nevada last played in 2018, a 37-35 win by the Wolf Pack. The Beavers, however, hold a 3-1 advantage in the series, winning in Corvallis in 1903 and 1998 and in Reno in 1999.

- OSU passed for 459 yards in the 2018 matchup, with Isaiah Hodgins catching 14 passes for 200 yards. Those 14 receptions are tied for the OSU single-game record while the 200 yards rank 10th.

- Timmy Hernandez also caught 11 passes for 116 yards. That game marked the last time OSU had two receivers top 100 yards in the same game.

- Ken Simonton totaled 199 yards in a 28-13 win in 1999. He also ran for three scores in the win. Simonton also ran for 121 yards while James Battle caught three passes for 99 yards in the 48-6 win in Corvallis in 1998.

So Close

- Gevani McCoy was close to 100 yards rushing against Colorado State. Had he reached the century mark, he would have been the first OSU quarterback with 100 yards since Darrell Garretson in 2016 against California. His 91 yards rank sixth-most by an OSU QB since 1996. Just three quarterbacks have topped 100 - Tim Alexander (1996 versus Northern Illinois and Arizona State) and Garretson in 2016.

- McCoy now has 514 career rush yards in 31 games at Oregon State and Idaho.
