The last time Oregon State won on the road, Sean Mannion (4) was the quarterback, Mike Riley was the head coach and Colorado was the worst team in the Pac-12. A lot can change in 25 months. The Beavers have lost 12 in a row away from home since that victory in Boulder. Saturday’s game at the Rose Bowl is their last chance to end that streak before the offseason and eliminate the chance of extending the drought to three full years.
Marcus McMaryion will start at quarterback for the fourth consecutive week. Beyond that, the Beavers’ plans at signal caller appear up in the air.
