Oregon State vs Utah State Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl Preview
– This is one of those bowl games that should end up shaping the narrative of the entire season.
The Mountain West was terrific against the Pac-12 this year – including a Utah State win over Washington State – but there’s no chirping unless the conference champion beats a middle-of-the-pack team.
– Utah State turned everything around in a hurry with a new coaching staff, a new offense, and the explosion to finish second in the Mountain West in total yards per game. The defense isn’t anything great, but it’s aggressive and comes up with a whole lot of plays behind the line.
– Oregon State wasn’t expected to be too much of a factor in the Pac-12, but it was strong enough to pull off a win over eventual conference champion Utah, Arizona State, and USC in a surprisingly good year.
The Beaver running game was the beat in the Pac-12, the offensive line was terrific in pass protection, and the attack was great at keeping the chains moving. However, the defense struggled – especially on third downs – with little-to-no pass rush to make a difference.
