The Utah State transfer is the primary reason OSU is expected to improve significantly on offense in 2016. He showed why in his Beavers debut at Minnesota, completing 25 of 40 passes for 228 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions. The big question is—can OSU’s offensive line keep Garretson upright? He was sacked four times and lost two fumbles while getting blindsided.

Oregon State already has its 2016 opener in the books, losing 30-23 at Minnesota on Thursday night. But that game gave a glimpse at the Beavers’ most important players for the season.
