- BTD writer Travis Johannes called into to Mountain West Connection’s podcast to preview Oregon State’s football opener against Colorado State, where he did an impressive job of laying some serious Beavers-related knowledge down.

- Our friends over at Pacific Takes were busy with their own Oregon State coverage in the past few days, first sizing up the Beavers’ chances heading into the 2017-2018 basketball season and then switching over to the gridiron, to take a look at running back Ryan Nall and his gradual rise to the top of the Pac-12. When it comes to your daily dose of Pac-12 news, nobody does it better than Pacific Takes.

- Does Oregon State have a pitching problem? What sounds almost crazy to say, considering the Beavers haulers have been the strength of the nation’s top-ranked team all-season long, a pitching issue may be emerging with the recent struggles of Bryce Fehmel. Danny Moran of the Oregonian takes a look into Oregon State’s current situation on the mound, while also taking a look at the most recent college baseball bracketology.
