Stanford Football Tickets - Stanford Triumphs Over Ucla 24-16

Andrew Luck threw for 198 yards, Tony Gerhart ran for three touchdowns and Stanford (4-1

, 3-0 Pac-10) snapped a five-game losing streak to UCLA with a 24-16 victory. Get Stanford football tickets and see Gerhart score from the 10. Luck, a redshirt freshman, finished 14-for-20. Gerhart scored from the five, 10, and one-yard line and caught two passes for 24 yards to lead the Cardinal past UCLA for the first time since 2003.

Gerhart, who rushed a career-high 200 yards in last week's win against Washington (on Sept. 26), finished with 134 yards on 29 carries and moved into fifth place on Stanford's all time-rushing list. His 24 career rushing touchdowns are tied for the third-most in school history. UCLA (3-1, 0-1) lost free safety Rahim Moore, who began the day as the nation's leader in interceptions, in the second quarter after he suffered a concussion.

The ref called a personal foul on Moore on the play for hitting Cardinal tight end Coby Fleener. Luck tried to hit Fleener, but the pass sailed over his head. Stanford's Ryan Whalen had six catches for 118 yards. Bruins senior quarterback Kevin Craft finished 22-of-34 for 204 yards and no touchdown. The quarterback struggled all day on third-down conversions. Johnathan Franklin scored the Bruins only touchdown when he rushed for one yard with 11:08 left of the game. Craft hit Terrence Austin for a 31-yard completion in the Bruins opening drive. That drive got UCLA in the red zone, but the Bruins had to settle for a 29-yard field goal. It was just the second time all season that the Cardinals trailed.

But UCLA's lead did not last. Almost six minutes later, Gerhart scored his first touchdown run. Stanford had trailed for only two seconds through its first three games this season, and that was when the Cardinals lost in the closing seconds at Wake Forest on September 12. Bruins kicker Kai Forbath also made field goals of 34 and 35 yards.


Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh made sure his offense got creative, calling a 46-yard flea flicker from Luck to Whalen in the third quarter, which set up Gerhart's third touchdown of the game. The Cardinals kept pounding it out on the ground and did not have to punt the ball until just before the break. Stanford did not start the game well. On their first drive, Luck tried to complete a pass to Chris Owusu, but the ball quickly popped out after Akeem Ayers hit him from behind. Ayers recovered the fumble.

The Cardinals' defense was limited after Erik Lorig strained a groin during Thursday's practice, but with the way Stanford played on the field you couldn't tell that they were the ones handicapped on defense. After three straight games at home, Harbaugh's team now hits the road for two games, one at Oregon State and the other at Arizona State. The Cardinals are trying to reach a bowl game and snap a seven-year postseason drought. They are off to their best five-game start since going 4-0-1 in 1995. The last time Stanford appeared in a bowl game was in 2001, when they lost to Georgia Tech in the Seattle bowl.
