Did You Say Rose Bowl? Oregon Prevails In Double OT, Tops Arizona 44-41

Tucson, AZ (Sports Network) - Jeremiah Masoli accounted for six total touchdowns -- three throwing and three rushing -- and his one-yard run on third down in the second overtime lifted 11th-ranked Oregon to a critical 44-41 win over Arizona to remain in control of the Pac-10.

Masoli completed 26-of-46 passes for 284 yards with an interception and added 61 rushing yards on 16 carries for Oregon (9-2, 7-1 Pac-10), which can secure a bid to the Rose Bowl with a win over Oregon State on December 3.

LaMichael James added 117 yards on the ground on 19 carries, and Jeff Maehl had 12 receptions for 114 yards and two scores. Ed Dickson had five catches for 63 yards and a game-tying touchdown with six seconds remaining in regulation.

Nick Foles threw for 314 yards with four touchdowns and a pick on 30-of-46 passing for Arizona (6-4, 4-3), which would have been in the driver's seat in the conference had it won the game. Instead, the Wildcats lost their chance to advance to the first Rose Bowl in school history.

Juron Criner caught three of Foles' touchdown passes, totaling five catches and 93 yards, and William Wright added five receptions for 73 yards and a score in defeat.
