Before Betting on Boise State Oregon State Week 1
OSU had a nice resurgence last year, and now they want to start building continued success starting with the Boise State Oregon State week 1 matchup. The Beavers were 7-6 last season, playing in their first bowl game since 2013 although it was a 24-13 loss to Utah State in the LA Bowl.
What Boise State is aiming for in 2022 is just continued success, as their 7-5 record a season ago was good enough for an Arizona Bowl berth against Central Michigan although it was cancelled after a COVID outbreak on the Broncos. BSU has a tough test on Saturday night as the Beavers were 6-0 at home last year which included a win over Pac-12 champion Utah.
Oregon State’s strength last season was their run game that churned out 219.5 ypg, the 13th best mark in the country. 1,300+ yard rusher B.J. Baylor is off to the NFL, but QB Chance Nolan gets three of his top four receiving targets back as well as three starters on the offensive line.
Hank Bachmeier returns for his senior year at QB for the Broncos, throwing for 3,000+ yards with 20 TD to 8 INT last season. Those are great numbers considering Boise State had virtually no running game, ranked 102nd in the country with 124.2 ypg. Bachmeier loses his favorite target though with 2X All-MWC receiver Khalil Shakir an NFL draft pick this Spring.
