The Oregon State Beavers look to live on their customary feast of turnovers. The Beavers have intercepted 19 passes this year, tied for sixth-most in the country, and their (Beavers’) 30 forced turnovers are tied for 12th. Seven of the Longhorns’ 15 turnovers this season came in their last two games, including five interceptions. Oregon State seeks to continue that trend against Longhorn signal caller David Ash. (Case McCoy will not play as he has been suspended for a violation of team rules.) Junior Cody Vaz will get the opportunity to lead the Beavers’ attack, that ranks 15th nationally with 316.5 passing yards per game.
