We all know about the long running CBS news magazine, 60 Minutes. For those of us of a certain age, though, there are the memories of a 60 Minutes segment run during the 1970’s called “Point / Counterpoint”.

Long before Andy Rooney took over the last few minutes of each Sunday’s show, liberal commentator Shana Alexander would square off with conservative commentator James J. Kilpatrick. The two would debate the issues of the day, with the barbs sometimes as much personal as topical.

Sean Mannion passed for 414 yards and a school-record six touchdowns and Oregon State won its fourth consecutive game Saturday with a 44-17 victory over Colorado.

Brandin Cooks caught nine passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns for the Beavers (4-1, 2-0 Pac-12), and had five carries for 47 yards. Mannion battled gusty wind conditions to complete 27 of 52 passes.

The Buffaloes’ offense, which hadn’t seen action for three weeks due to the postponement of the Fresno State game, was out of sync for most of the game. Quarterback Connor Wood connected on just 14 of 34 passes for 146 yards. Paul Richardson, who came into game as the country’s leading receiver averaging 208.5 yards per game, was held to five receptions for 70 yards.
