Beavers facing WSU today in pivotal game

Here we go. Gameday. It looks like it's going to be cool and wet around game time. Weather.com has the game at around 60 degrees with showers. That should help OSU since there have already played a big game in the rain this year.

The articles on the game this week have had a few consistent themes. There are the "Cougs Ready for Revenge" articles. There are a bunch of articles on Alex Brink and how he is a different QB this time around. Mike Hass and Jason Hill comparisons get a little pub. And of course there are the "How Good are the Cougars" stories alluding to the fact that they haven't played anyone yet. Then there are the "Beavs must win", "Beavs may have a running game", and "Beavers pass defense must get better". There's way too many articles to post, but there were a couple good ones that everyone should have read.

Corvallis Gazette-Times - The kicker and the kid finally to meet
Great story about Alexis Serna and Austin Pierce who will be attending the game due to help from Pure Orange. Nice job guys!

Seattle Times - OSU's Hass slips into prominence; faces Cougs next
Article on Mike Hass from the opposition perspective.

Tacoma News Tribune - Bad shoulder, hamburger can’t keep Harrison down
Apparently WSU start RB Jerome Harrison has had a bad shoulder. This could be big if he gets hurt because they don't have a ton of RB depth.

Corvallis Gazette-Times - Crucial game for Oregon State
Beavers facing near must-win situation against Cougars. I think a lot of people feel this way. Home game, gotta win.

I couldn't find the article, but there was one that revealed that Brandon Hughes or Aaron Miller will start for Gerrard Lawson. That could be big.

Here we go!
