Boise perks up
Trailing 7-0 midway through the second quarter, host Boise State went on a 17-play, 87-yard drive to tie it with 1:10 left in the half. Then the Broncos got the ball back with 8 seconds left at the Wyoming 46-yard line and with 1 second left, Kellen Moore hit Matt Miller on a 46-yard, deflected touchdown as No. 7 Boise State (10-1, 5-1 Mountain West) rattled off 36 unanswered points in a 36-14 victory Saturday. Wyoming (7-4, 4-2) took its early lead on Luke Anderson's 29-yard interception return.
Ducks advance
LaMichael James ran for 142 yards before leaving with what appeared to be a left elbow injury, and No. 10 Oregon beat Oregon State, 49-21, in Eugene, to clinch the Pac-12 North. Darron Thomas threw for 305 yards and four touchdowns for the Ducks (10-2, 8-1 Pac-12), who will host UCLA on Friday night with a chance to win their third straight conference title and a spot in the Rose Bowl.
10 in a row for Georgia
Aaron Murray threw four TD passes and No. 13 Georgia extended its domination over No. 23 Georgia Tech, pulling away for a 31-17 victory in Atlanta. Next weekend, the Bulldogs will be back in Atlanta to face top-ranked LSU riding a 10-game winning streak. -- AP
