Oregon State receiver out, OL nears full strength

Oregon State receiver Eddie Freauff was ruled out for Saturday’s game at Fresno State after being listed as questionable earlier in the week, while safety RJ Whitten was again listed out. The Beavers’ offensive line is expected to be much healthier after the bye: tackle Josiah Timoteo and lineman Carter Guillaume have returned from foot injuries, adding depth and competition for starting roles. Oregon State’s defense, which has been among the Pac-12’s stronger units, says it is focused on correcting mistakes from its win over Washington State and preparing respectfully for Fresno State’s offense.
