With the PAC-12 dispersing at the end of this year, students at Oregon State University looked back on their favorite Beaver sports moments over their time attending OSU.

Second year – human development and family sciences

“I got to fill the Gill against UCLA this year. That was really cool, my heart was beating so much during the buzzer beater, I couldn’t even watch the game. My partner had to be like ‘OH MY GOD WE DID IT!’.”

“Also, against Arizona, watching the men’s team. It was my partner’s first basketball game, and it was another buzzer-beater. I was like ‘They’re not all like this,’ but we kept on going to basketball games and they were really good.”

“When the baseball team won the National Championship in 2018. I watched it at home when I was in high school, it was really cool.”

Second-year

“In 2022, the rivalry game, I was a freshman and I thought we were going to lose, and I said ‘Dang, did I choose the wrong Oregon school,’ and then we came back, and they blew a 21-point lead and that was really fun.”

Third-year – marketing

“My favorite moment in the PAC-12 was Jordan Pope’s shot at the buzzer. I attended that game, and I relished that moment. Being surrounded by other students while we rushed the court was awesome.”
