LAS VEGAS (AP) - Oregon State kicker Justin Kahut converted a 33-yard field goal with seven seconds left to give the Beavers a 23-21 win over UNLV on Saturday night.

Teammate Jacquizz Rodgers rushed for 166 yards on 26 carries and had 65 receiving yards on 10 receptions, including a 4-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter which put the Beavers (2-0) up 20-7.

Backup quarterback Mike Clausen rallied UNLV (1-1) with two fourth-quarter touchdown passes which give the Rebels a 21-20 lead with 4:16 left.

However, Oregon State answered, and Kahut redeemed himself after earlier missing a 47-yarder off the left post and an extra point.
