UCLA finally feels the rush of victory with win over Oregon State, 38-24

Randall Goforth held the ball aloft with one hand as he crossed the 15-yard line, legs churning with only open field ahead.

Finally, after more than a month, there was something to celebrate for the UCLA safety and his teammates.

Goforth’s 40-yard interception return for a touchdown with a little more than two minutes left Saturday night at the Rose Bowl secured the Bruins’ 38-24 victory over Oregon State, ending a four-game losing streak.

UCLA won largely thanks to four words seldom written this season: another Bruins rushing touchdown.

Freshman tailback Jalen Starks, getting his first carries since mid-September, ran for two of his team’s three rushing touchdowns, including a four-yard score midway through the third quarter that gave UCLA a 31-21 advantage.
