In the spirit of not giving away too many secrets, Mike Riley kept the spring game strikingly similar to the practice regimen the Beavers have abided by these last four weeks – a lot of running and short, quick pass plays. Perhaps the biggest difference was the increased focus on young players, and a few stood out... http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1287355.html 2047 DREW WILSON-McGRATH http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1287355.html Sat, 27 Apr 2013 08:52:00 GMT 0 182 Oregon State oregonstate CORVALLIS – It was the defense’s day to shine on Day 12, as batted balls and interceptions from the defensive backs typified a good portion of Monday’s practice.

All that and more in this lengthy spring preview. http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1273574.html 2047 DREW WILSON-McGRATH http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1273574.html Mon, 11 Mar 2013 19:53:00 GMT 1 182 Oregon State oregonstate THE DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD conversation at Oregon State headed into spring will center around replacing consensus All-America selection Jordan Poyer.

And based on the number of recruits, you can make the case it's the top rated class... http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1265049.html 2047 JIM PHILLIPS http://oregonstate.scout.com/2/1265049.html Thu, 07 Feb 2013 19:11:00 GMT 1 182 Oregon State oregonstate CORVALLIS – Oregon State officially added a junior college cornerback today on the first day of the midyear signing period.
