The Beavers (2-2, 0-1 Pac-12) visit the Wildcats (3-2, 0-2) this weekend in Tucson. With its new spread offense, Oregon State goes against a coach - Rich Rodriguez - who innovated the no-huddle, run-oriented spread.
''I really do try to study. I think it's important to take a look back. I can't say I sit down and study everybody's tape or what everybody's league is doing, but I do go back and try to look to see some critical situations or some scenarios that come up in games that you can potentially learn from,'' Andersen said.
