CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Patrick Laird ran for 193 yards and two touchdowns, and also caught a scoring pass, and California snapped a three-game losing streak with a 49-7 victory at Oregon State on Saturday.
It was Cal's first conference win of the season. The Golden Bears (4-3, 1-3) had not won a Pac-12 game on the road since a victory at Washington in 2015, a string of 14 games. But the victory was marred by two targeting calls against Cal players that resulted ejections.
Chase Garbers threw for 234 yards and three touchdowns for the Golden Bears.
