GAME BREAKDOWN
KEY MATCHUP: Oregon State’s linebackers and secondary will be tested early and often by Washington State’s air attack, which averages 56.8 pass attempts per game. Seven different players have recorded at least 18 receptions this season, including a pair of running backs. The Beavers have only two interceptions and 11 pass breakups on 161 attempts.
ROSTER REPORT:
–WR Isaiah Hodgins, OSU’s leading receiver with 362 yards, is “day-to-day” with a hamstring injury suffered against Arizona State. He had one catch for 44 yards in that game before getting hurt.
–QB Jake Luton, who has missed the last two games with an ankle injury, could return to action against Washington State depending on how he fares in practice.
–Oregon State is welcoming back more than 100 former players for Saturday’s game.
