    It’s an interesting battle between two programs trying to make some noise. Oregon State had to work a bit last week to get by Idaho State 38-15, and it has a showdown against Oregon coming up in two weeks.

    It’s FAST, but when it stalled, it gets off the field in a hurry. Oregon State needs to run well, control the clock, and get the ground game going. The Beavers ran for 362 yards on the Bengals, and …

    Why San Diego State Will Win

    Is there a chance the Aztec run defense is still strong?

    Defense wasn’t a key thing in the Sean Lewis era at Kent State, but at least for one week, his defense at San Diego State dominated up front.

    The Aztecs will be hit-or-miss in a big way this season. The lulls in this will be too much to overcome.
