Oregon Road Conditions & Cams Email Story to a Friend September 19, 2005 Easier for Beavers to forget, but lessons must be learned for ASU The Associated Press CORVALLIS — It would be a lot easier for the Oregon State Beavers to simply put away the embarrassing loss to Louisville and move on to next weekend against Arizona State. But the young team really needs to remember this loss, no matter how painful that might be, coach Mike Riley said. "I’m disappointed in the game for sure. We are young in a lot of ways. We have to grow. I’ll just take it for what it is right now. I won’t push it aside and say it didn’t happen. There are things that I hope guys will learn from," Riley said solemnly after the 11th-ranked Cardinals routed Oregon State 63-27. Matt Moore finished 25-for-48 for 317 yards for Oregon State (2-1), which lost to a ranked opponent on the road for the seventh straight time. The Beavers led 10-0 after consecutive 11-play scoring drives, putting the Cardinals down at home for the first time since a 37-7 loss to Memphis in 2003.

Brian Brohm threw for 368 yards and five touchdowns and Mario Urrutia caught seven passes for 175 yards with two touchdowns for Louisville (2-0). The Cardinals’ defense did its part, too, generating four fumbles, two interceptions and seven tackles for loss, including three sacks. "I’m a little surprised we won the way we did today. I was very nervous coming into this game," Louisville coach Bobby Petrino said. "We put a lot of time in the offseason into preparing for Oregon State. You watch film of their bowl win over Notre Dame and see them leading USC 13-0 last year before losing a close game and you know they have talent. Our guys did a nice job of coming back after the slow start." The Cardinals’ 63 points tied a record for most points scored by a Beavers opponent. "It wasn’t about them; it was about us," Oregon State safety Sabby Piscitelli said. "We didn’t execute our assignments. We were flying around and we weren’t making plays. Louisville really played a great game. They are ranked for a reason." The Beavers opened the season at Reser Stadium with victories over Division I-AA Portland State and Boise State. They now return to their newly expanded home field against No. 18 Arizona State (2-1), which beat Northwestern 52-21 in Tempe Saturday night. "We went out there and it didn’t go the way we planned. We have to learn from this experience and bounce back next week," Piscitelli said. "We have to show that we are gonna bounce back."
