Oregon State 38, Hawaii 30: Sean Mannion threw three touchdown passes and the visiting Beavers used a big first half to hold off the Rainbow Warriors.
Oregon State (2-0) got 124 yards on the ground from Terron Ward on 15 carries and Mannion connected on 26-of-37 passes for 300 yards. Ward gained 90 yards and had touchdown runs of 2 and 32 yards in the first half as the Beavers raced out to a 31-7 lead before the break.
Mannion hit Vincent Bolden from 8 yards out to increase the lead to 38-7 early in the third quarter before the Rainbow Warriors (0-2) rallied. Hawaii's Joey Iosefa, who scored three touchdowns, scored on back-to-back possessions to trim the deficit to 38-20 early in the fourth quarter.
Hawaii recovered a fumble on the ensuing kickoff and Tyler Hadden booted a 33-yard field to make it 38-23. Ikaika Woolsey scored on a quarterback sneak from two yards out to make it 38-30 with 1:35 left but the Rainbow Warriors could not recover the onside kick and Oregon State ran out the clock.
Woolsey was 20-of-50 passing for 236 yards for Hawaii, which nearly upset then-No. 25 Washington with a stout defensive performance a week ago. The Warriors scored their lone touchdown in the first half, a 2-yard run by Iosefa, following an Oregon State turnover.
