CORVALLIS, Ore. — The Oregon State Beavers have their revenge.

Alexis Serna kicked a 29-yard field goal with 1:03 to go and Oregon State came from behind to beat Boise State 30-27 under stormy skies yesterday.

The Broncos (0-2) had a 24-14 lead early in the second half, but the Beavers (2-0) evened it at 27-all early in the fourth quarter when Mike Hass caught a 22-yard scoring pass from Matt Moore.

"They had us on our heels big time, but the big plays going their way started going our way," coach Mike Riley said. "It really was a great lesson in perseverance."

The Beavers were looking to avenge last season's 53-34 loss on the blue turf at Bronco Stadium. That was Boise State's first victory over a Pac-10 team.

Serna's third field goal of the day proved to be the winner when the Broncos could not get anything going in the final minute. Boise State, which was ranked in preseason polls, lost its opener to Georgia.

There were periodic downpours and a first-half hailstorm. For a time, the field even appeared to have a dusting of snow, but it was pea-sized hail.

Moore completed 27 of 38 passes for 279 yards. Hass had 11 catches for 178 yards.

In their opener last Saturday, the then-No. 18 Broncos fell behind 38-0 and went on to an embarrassing 48-13 loss to Georgia. Quarterback Jared Zabransky, an Oregon native, threw four interceptions and fumbled twice before being benched in the second quarter.

The Broncos had only three losses in their previous 42 games and were ranked coming into a season for the first time since moving up to Division I-A in 1996.

Against the Beavers, Zabransky completed 19 of 36 passes for 233 yards and three touchdowns. The Broncos, who also lost to Louisville in their final game last season, had not lost three in a row since 1997.
