BOWL PREVIEW: BYU/Oregon St.

BYU is making its 5th straight Las Vegas Bowl appearance. Oregon St. will enter as a 3 point favorite and try to shake off the loss to rival Oregon which cost the Beavers a trip to the Rose Bowl. So far this bowl season, defense has been a rumor and this game looks to continue that trend. Both teams are averaging over 30 point per on offense while surrendering a shade over 20 on the defensive side of the ball. Coach Mike Riley's Oregon St. squad will look to notch its sixth straight bowl win against a Cougar team that lost last year in this same bowl to Arizona. The high power passing game of QB Max Hall in combination with RB Harvey Unga may provide problems for the Beavers, however, the potent trio of Oregon St. RB Jaquizz Rodgers
(1377 yds rushing), QB Sean Canfield (70 pct completion rate) and WR James Rodgers (2213 all purpose yds) may prove to too much in the end for BYU. I expect a highly competitive game and I'll give the nod to the PAC 10.
