Without QB Cam Rising, the Utes are too dimensional offensively. I don't anticipate that changing with the freshman Johnson under center, making this matchup challenging for the Utes. While they slowed down freshman phenom Dante Moore and the Bruins last week, they will not have the same success against Uiagalelei and the Beavers' ground game.
Last year Oregon St lost this game 42-16 on the road despite outgaining them in total yards but the 4 turnovers really hurt them.
On Friday night I expect the Beavers to slow down the game by demonstrating the run and opening up the passing game for Uiagalelei. By dominating time of possession, all it will take is a few scores to separate from the Utes.


The stadium will be rocking tonight and I expect the Oregon St Beavers to cover the spread on Friday night!
