2. Beavers coach Gary Andersen said during his Monday press conference that, despite giving up more than 1,000 yards total in its first two games against Colorado State and Portland State, OSU’s defense is “not far away.”
Does defensive coordinator Kevin Clune agree with that assessment?
“Of course I agree,” Clune said. “That’s the head coach. I’m going to agree with him every time.”
All kidding aside, Clune described a “great” week of practice thus far. The defensive linemen are hitting their gaps, the linebackers are in the right spot and the defensive backs are communicating better, the coach said.
