CSU Fullerton Titans aim to end road slide against Oregon State Beavers
Titans have lost their last four road games dating back to last season
Fullerton looks to find more consistency on offense
The CSU Fullerton Titans will look to end their four-game road losing streak when they travel to Corvallis, Oregon, to take on the Oregon State Beavers on Saturday. The Titans are 1-2 on the road this season, with their only win coming against the UC Riverside Highlanders. They have lost their last four road games dating back to last season, including a 34-13 loss to the San Jose State Spartans in their last road game.
The Titans will need to find more consistency on offense if they want to end their road losing streak. They are averaging just 17.7 points per game on the road this season, and they have failed to score more than 20 points in any of their three road games. The Titans have also struggled to protect the football on the road, turning the ball over seven times in their three road games.
The Beavers are 2-1 at home this season, with their only loss coming against the Utah Utes. They are averaging 31 points per game at home this season, and they have scored at least 30 points in each of their three home games.
The Titans will need to play a near-perfect game if they want to end their road losing streak against the Beavers. They will need to be efficient on offense, protect the football, and play well on defense. If they can do that, they have a chance to pull off the upset and end their road losing streak.
Here are some key matchups to watch in Saturday's game:
- Titans offense vs. Beavers defense: The Titans will need to find a way to move the ball against a Beavers defense that is allowing just 17.3 points per game this season. The Titans have struggled to score on the road this season, so they will need to find a way to be more efficient on offense if they want to win.
- Beavers offense vs. Titans defense: The Beavers are averaging 31 points per game at home this season, so the Titans defense will need to play well if they want to keep the Beavers in check. The Titans have allowed 24.7 points per game on the road this season, so they will need to improve their play on defense if they want to win.
- Special teams: The Titans have been solid on special teams this season, but they will need to be at their best against the Beavers. The Beavers have a dangerous return game, so the Titans will need to make sure they cover kicks and punts well.
The Titans and Beavers will kick off at 1 p.m. PT on Saturday at Reser Stadium in Corvallis, Oregon. The game will be televised on the Pac-12 Network.
