Oregon State starts the 2017 season Saturday against Colorado State. The game will air at 11:30 a.m. on CBS Sports Network.
Read below for five things to watch at the season opener in Fort Collins.
Darell Garretson was leveled on several occasions in his Oregon State debut one year ago. The offensive line greatly improved with the return of Sean Harlow but now must replace him and fellow seniors Gavin Andrews and Dustin Stanton. Colorado State did not have an elite defense in 2016 but did tally 29 sacks. The Beavers could be in for a high-scoring affair and that’s a tall order if Jake Luton doesn’t have proper time to throw.
