Duesing finished the game with six catches for 92 yards and two touchdowns as he eclipsed Cory Snyder's reception record (170) and Vernon Butler's receiving yardage record (2,431). Duesing gave Washington U. a 7-0 lead with 4:38 left in the first quarter when senior quarterback Adam Meranda connected with him for a 3-yard touchdown pass. With less than two minutes remaining in the first half, the Bears put together a six-play, 49-second drive, capped by a 34-yard touchdown reception by senior Zak Clark, to put WUSTL up 14-7. Meranda finished the day 23 of 43 for 259 yards and four touchdowns as he moved past Jeff Daube (2,650) and Brian Tatom (2,713) into fifth place on the all-time passing yardage list with 2,980 yards.
